Back in May, HBO Max announced a forthcoming documentary about Lizzo. Now, the artist has revealed the title and release date of the film, as Billboard points out. Love, Lizzo arrives November 24 on the streaming platform, as Lizzo announced in an Instagram post earlier today. “Finally telling my story, my way,” she wrote in the caption. Find her full post below.
According to press materials shared with Billboard Love, Lizzo will explore “the journey of a trailblazing superstar who has become the movement the world desperately needed just by being herself.” The film will chronicle “the inspirational story behind her humble beginnings to her meteoric rise with an intimate look into the moments that shaped her hard-earned rise to fame, success, love and international stardom.”
“Growing up I never dreamed I’d get to experience all of the things I’ve accomplished in my life, and I’m just getting started,” Lizzo added in the press release. She continued:
Love, Lizzo is directed by Doug Pray, executive producer of HBO’s Dr. Dre/Jimmy Iovine documentary The Defiant Ones. The documentary follows Lizzo’s sophomore full-length, Special, which she announced with the single “About Damn Time” in April. Since then, she pulled double duty hosting and performing on Saturday Night Live, joined Harry Styles during his Coachella set, and more.
In September, Lizzo made history when she became the first person to play U.S. president James Madison’s historic crystal flute at a Washington D.C. concert. Earlier that month, Lizzo’s Amazon Prime Video reality series Watch Out for the Big Grrrls took home Emmys for Outstanding Directing for a Reality Program (Nneka Onuorah) and Outstanding Picture Editing for a Structured Reality or Competition Program.
