Lizzo graces the cover of Vogue’s October issue, and we cannot stop gawking over how radiant she looks in her red, ruffled Valentino gown. 

Styled by Carlos Nazario and photographed by Hype Williams, the singer-songwriter accessorized her look with dainty jewels, Manolo Blahnik shoes, and complementing glam by Estée Lauder.

In the magazine, Lizzo candidly opens up about her feelings on body positivity and why she thinks the term has become appropriated.

“It’s commercialized,” she told the outlet. “Now, you look at the hashtag ‘body positive,’ and you see smaller-framed girls, curvier girls. Lotta white girls. And I feel no ways about that, because inclusivity is what my message is always about. I’m glad that this conversation is being included in the mainstream narrative. What I don’t like is how the people that this term was created for are not benefiting from it.” 

She continued, “Girls with back fat, girls with bellies that hang, girls with thighs that aren’t separated, that overlap. Girls with stretch marks. You know, girls who are in the 18-plus club. They need to be benefiting from...the mainstream effect of body positivity now. But with everything that goes mainstream, it gets changed. It gets—you know, it gets made acceptable.”

Mary J Blige stunned on the cover of Health Magazine’s beauty issue! Photographed by Itaysha Jordan and styled by Solange Franklin Reed, the October cover star glowed in a neutral-colored fitted dress with bold gold earrings by Sister Love. 

In the magazine, Mary opened up about the importance of self-love and how the pandemic assisted in her self-care journey. 

“I was already liking me, and now I have grown deeper in love with myself because I love my own company,” Mary explained. “I don’t think any of us realized how fast we had been moving. I really appreciate this rest and this silence, so that I can hear more clearly what’s going on. When you’re by yourself, you’re either going to be your own best friend and be honest and real with yourself, or you’re going to be your own worst enemy and deceive yourself. It’s been so clear to me that I am my best friend.”

She also opened up about how she manages to protect her mindset.

“I meditate and I pray on the things that are positive, not on the lies that are negative,” she shared. “Every time a negative thought comes, I push it down. I’m like, ‘That’s a lie. I rebut that. I don’t receive that.’ It’s a practice, and you have to do it all day.”
