Lizzo made a splash for her appearance on the “Today” show.
On Friday, the Grammy-winning singer performed at the popular talk show’s Citi Concert Series at Rockefeller Center in New York City. She wore a metallic blue outfit with chain, cone bra detailing on the bustier and metal studs.
During the show, she later switched from her shapewear line, Yeti, to a two-piece royal blue set. She wore a cropped V-neck bralette top and matching biker shorts. Lizzo wore her hair in curls and kept her makeup simple with exaggerated blue eyeliner to match her outfit.
She is usually styled by Jason Rembert, who plays Mary J. Blige also works with the likes of Issa Rae and Queen Latifah.
For the segment, Lizzo, born Melissa Jefferson, sang past hits like “Truth Hurts” and “Good as Hell,” as well as songs from her new album, “Special,” like the now-viral “About Damn Time.” and “special.”
During her so far press tour in New York City, the singer has been seen playing pieces from Yeti.
Lizzo revealed she was releasing a shapewear line in March, posting several Instagram photos promoting the launch. According to the singer, the project took five years to create.
Yitty, created in partnership with its parent company Fabletics, offers sizes from 6X to XS and a wide range of bold and bright colors like yellow, pink, red and purple and neutrals.

“This is a love letter to my big grrrls, and a welcome letter to every body. This is *not* an invitation to change who you are…this is *not* an invitation to change who you are,” wrote Lizzo in the caption of one of her Instagram posts. There’s an opportunity to be who you are.” “I don’t know about you all—but I’m sick of people telling me how I should look and feel about my body. I’m tired of restlessness being synonymous with sexy. If it is uncomfortable remove it. And if it makes you feel good, put it on. @YITTY It’s not just shapewear, it’s your chance to reclaim your body and redefine your beauty standard. I love you all.”
“Special” is Lizzo’s fourth studio album. His last project, “Cuz I Love You,” was released in 2019 and earned several accolades, including a Grammy Award for Best Urban Contemporary Album.
The singer was recently nominated for six Primetime Emmy Awards for her reality competition series “Lizzo’s Watch Out for the Big Girls”, including one for Outstanding Competition Program.
