Lizzo's Virginity Vow & Fame's Flipped Script

0:00On April 1st, Lizzo dropped some real talk on the Friends Keep Secrets podcast with Benny Blanco and Lil Dickie about her love life before Fame hit. She made a personal vow to stay a virgin until she snanked her first Grammy, which happened in 2020 for Best Urban Contemporary Album With, because I love you. She also opened up about her first kiss at 21 years old, calling it a total disaster on New Year's Eve when a guy forced it on her. Calling up in church as a teen, she and her friends pledged to wait until marriage, and that fear stuck with her for years. Back then, Lizzo felt invisible to guys because she was a bigger girl in her hometown, where that meant ugly to a lot of folks. High school was rough one dude, past secret notes wanting to hook up, but she shut that down quick, not about that sneaky life. Once the Grammy glow kicked in, hip-hop artists flooded her DM's left and right. She was straight confused, thinking it was all friendly vibes until friends clued her in that they were shooting their shot.
