An initiative that aims to help "reverse the negative effects of social networks and change views on beauty standards," writes the 32-year-old.

A photo in favor of body positivism

A magnificent statement in favor of body-positivism, this movement pushing women to accept themselves as they are, to live with their complexes and to shed the diktats of the beauty of society. In recent years, Lizzo has positioned herself as a true defender of body-positivism and female empowerment , and actively fights against grossophobia.

Many stars such as Marc Jacobs and Janelle Monáe supported the artist's message of love. The American R'n'B singer SZA notably testified her enthusiasm in a comment: "It's you who has no faults at ALL lol… I just admire you. I want to drop the FaceTime photos. "

Maybe it's (finally) time for everyone to ditch Photoshop and accept who we are, right?
