“It was kind of political and feminist in my eyes to have me, a full-figured dancer, wearing leotards, showing and celebrating curves.”
“After [Beyoncé’s ‘Single Ladies’] it seemed like it became the industry standard for everyone,” she said. “I wanted to be like a dancer and also, it was kind of political and feminist in my eyes to have me, a full-figured dancer, wearing leotards, showing and celebrating curves and being Olympian in strength, endurance, and flexibility.”
Lizzo said her performance looks are an evolution of the famous banana skirts worn by Josephine Baker in the 1920s, and explained, “Movements have to evolve generationally. The culture changes. You can’t have a movement in 1920 be the same thing as it is in the 2020s. We have to match the rebellion. The rebellion isn’t even the same.”Lizzo stars on the cover of Vanity Fair's November issue.
