The series follows10 hopefuls as they move into the “Big Grrrls House” and compete to make it to the end to join Lizzo on her world tour.
“To be a background dancer for Lizzo would mean everything,” says one competitor.
“I need to challenge myself and step outside my comfort zone,” says another.
Speaking to the dancers in the video, Lizzo gets emotional as she says, “It’s hard to love yourself in a world that doesn’t love you back. You were created specially in your image for you to enjoy.”
“It’s time to show the world how we do it,” adds the singer. “Watch out for the big girls.”
Lizzo has long been a champion of self-love and body acceptance. Earlier this month, the singer penned an Instagram post on self-love alongside a video that showed her wearing no clothes.
“If you love me… you love all of me. You dont get to pick and choose,” shecaptioned her post. “We should be unconditionally loving of one another, starting with being unconditionally loving to ourselves.”
The “Truth Hurts” singer continued, “Take a moment today and think about the conditions we hold so tightly to that keep us from the freedom of true love. Do you really wanna be so tightly wound? Free yourself in love. You deserve it.”
She alsoshared an empowering, unedited nude photo on Instagramin April ahead of her chat withDove for their Self-Esteem Projectto inspire others to embrace their Photoshop- and filter-free selves.
On Thursday, following the release of the trailer, Lizzo celebrated her new reality show on Instagram.
“Ready to laugh, cry, twerk, repeat?!” she added. “WATCH OUT FOR THE BIG GRRRLS DROPS 3/25 ONLY ON @primevideo”
