Jillian Michaels, the former host of the NBC weight loss reality show, The Biggest Loser, is coming under fire for comments she made about Lizzo.
During an interview she said, why are we celebrating her body? Why does it matter? Why aren’t we celebrating her music? Cause it isn’t going to be awesome if she gets diabetes.
Jillian went on to say that she loves Lizzo’s music but she is not here for Lizzo’s positive body image.There’s never a moment when I’m like, ‘I’m so glad she’s overweight’ Why do I even care? Why is it my job to care about her weight?

How do you interpret Jillian’s comments?

Is she fat-shaming Lizzo or is she saying the focus should be on her music not her body?
