NewsMay, 27 Lizzo insists she didn't scrap her Love in Real Life album
Lizzo has insisted she did not scrap her Love in Real Life album. The Juice singer has addressed the "misconception" that she cancelled the project, which had originally been expected to arrive last year. Instead of releasing the album, Lizzo dropped the mixtape My Face Hurts From Smiling in June. Speaking to Billboard in a recent interview, the Truth Hurts hitmaker explained that the album was simply renamed and remains the same project she is now set to release on 5 June under the title B**ch. "I think the biggest misconception about my album is that I shelved Love in Real Life when I didn't," she clarified. "(B**ch) is technically the same album. I just changed the name. The music is the same." Lizzo noted that the biggest change between the original version of the record and the upcoming release was the removal of its former title track, which prompted the new name. "When you change the name of something, it changes its destiny," the singer said. "Like, when I went from Melissa to Lizzo, it changed my destiny." "When this album went from Love in Real Life to B**ch, it changed the trajectory of its past," she continued. "I do think that I feel like I can express myself the way that I want to express myself right now through B**ch. I think Love in Real Life was really sombre and a little bit more introspective, and I think B**ch is a little bit more empowered and self-actualised and bold." Ahead of the updated album's release, Lizzo has shared the singles B**ch and Don't Make Me Love U. The star previously opened up about not feeling ready to release Love in Real Life during an interview with Vulture, explaining that the project "just wasn't what I was feeling right now". She also revealed that she wrote most of the album in 2022. "By 2025, I've changed, the world has changed so much, and so much has happened," she stated. "I was like, 'I need to do s**t differently, and I don't know what it is, but I'm going to just start following my instincts.'"
