Lizzo shares details of 'dark, deep depression'

Lizzo has shared the details of her "dark, deep depression" with fans.

The Good As Hell singer opened up about her emotional struggles during a Los Angeles concert, telling the audience she had experienced such a "dark, deep depression" over ongoing lawsuits that she had entertained thoughts of ending her life.

"About a year and a half ago - it's so hard for me to talk about - I was in such a dark, deep depression," Lizzo, 36, told the crowd during an intimate gig at LA's The Wiltern on Wednesday.

"I was so heartbroken by the world and so deeply hurt that I didn't want to live anymore, and I was so deeply afraid of people that I didn't want to be seen. Eventually I got over that fear."

An encounter with a fan "saved" her, she said.

"Something miraculous happened. Somebody, who I didn't know, looked at me and said, 'Lizzo, I love you,'" she said. "And they reached out, and I reached back, and we hugged, and it felt so damn good."

The experience was "f**king life-saving," Lizzo added.

In 2023, Lizzo was sued by three of her former backup dancers and an ex-stylist for alleged sexual harassment and claims that she created a toxic workplace environment.

The singer consistently denied all allegations and was dismissed as a defendant from the stylist's lawsuit, however, the various legal proceedings remain unresolved.
