While rapper and singer Lizzo (real name Melissa Jefferson) released her debut album, Lizzobangers, in 2013, this year is her time to finally get the name recognition she deserves. Thanks to her appearances on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and The Tonight Show, more fans have discovered Lizzo and can't wait for the release of her third studio album, Cuz I Love You, in April (her upcoming tour of the same name is also sold out). But in addition to her amazing music, Lizzo also spreads empowering messages about body positivity and self-love. Her backup dancers are dubbed "The Big GRRRLS," and she models for Khloé Kardashian's Good American clothing brand.
Badass Fact: One of her signature moves is playing the flute on stage while twerking. Is there anything she can't do?!
