Lizzo just made a bombshell confession about her sex life.
The “About Damn Time” singer, 37, revealed that she lost her virginity in her 30s after vowing to abstain from sex until she won a Grammy award.
“I was a late bloomer. I lied about it for a long time,” Lizzo confessed during the Tuesday, March 31, episode of the “Friends Keep Secrets” podcast hosted by Benny Blanco and Lil Dicky.
“Can I just tell you the year? 2020,” she continued. “Isn’t that crazy?”
Lizzo won her first three Grammys in 2020, picking up Best Pop Solo Performance for “Truth Hurts,” Best Urban Contemporary Album for her third studio album, Cuz I Love You, and Best Traditional R&B Performance for “Jerome.”
“I wasn’t even thinking about it,” she explained. “For me, I just promised myself when I was younger that I wouldn’t have sex until I won a Grammy.”
“Are you serious?” Blanco responded.
“I’m so deadass,” Lizzo told the music producer.
Lizzo has dedicated herself to helping women accept and love their bodies in the same way that she does — through body positivity and motivational anthems. “It definitely comes with time,” Lizzo exclusively told Us Weekly in September 2019. “I wasn’t really given the opportunities or the privileges to feel like a sex symbol when I […]
Lil Dicky then asked the singer, “Do you think you would have stuck to that? Eventually you would have f***ed had you not won the Grammy?”
“Who knows?” Lizzo responded, replying that she didn’t lose her virginity on the night of the 2020 Grammys, but soon after.
Dicky’s wife, Kristin Batalucco, then asked Lizzo if she felt like she needed to win a Grammy so she could eventually look forward to sex.
“I wasn’t even thinking about that,” the singer replied. “I didn’t even know that it was in my cards. I wasn’t even really set up for that.”

Before losing her virginity, the “2 Be Loved (Am I Ready)” singer said she lied about being sexually active, recalling one particular experience with her girlfriends in college.
“I used to lie. It was so embarrassing. I feel like a weight off of my chest right now,” Lizzo said.
She continued, “It was so embarrassing. I was in a friend group of girls. We were all girling one night and it was like, ‘Wait, Lizzo, are you a virgin?’ and I remember being like, ‘No!’ It was so embarrassing. I said, ‘I love the D.’ I said that. It was so f***ing embarrassing. I was like, ‘I love the D,’ and it held me over for a little while.”
Elsewhere on the podcast, Lizzo said she had her first kiss at 21.
“It was religious for me, too. When we were teenagers, at my church, we made a pact that we wouldn’t do anything before marriage,” she explained.
Lizzo described her first kiss as “terrible,” adding, “I was actually very upset about it. It was like a New Year’s Eve thing and he, like, forced it on me. I was like, ‘My first kiss is ruined!’ I was so mad.”
