Lizzo at a pre-Grammys event in February Lizzo has shared that she kept a promise to herself not to have sex until after winning a Grammy . The Good As Hell singer is the latest guest on the Friends Keep Secrets podcast , where she disclosed that she was a “late bloomer” when it came to having sex for the first time. Admitting that this was something she “lied about” for “a long time”, Lizzo eventually said that her first time was in 2020, when she was in her early 30s. “Isn’t that crazy?” she remarked, admitting that sex was a subject she “wasn’t even thinking about” until that point. The chart-topping star noted: “I promised myself when I was younger that I wouldn’t have sex until I won a Grammy.” In January 2020, Lizzo picked up her first Grammy Awards in the Best Pop Solo Performance category for her hit Truth Hurts, Best Traditional R&B Performance for the album track Jerome and Best Urban Contemporary Album (now known as Best Progressive R&B Album) for her release Cuz I Love You. She added during her podcast that while her first time “was not the night of the Grammys”, it was not too long afterwards. Three years later, her signature song About Damn Time picked up Record Of The Year at the Grammys, one of the awards show’s top honours. “I feel a weight off of my chest right now,” she said during her Friends Keep Secrets interview, recalling: “I was in a friend group of girls. We were all girling one night, and it was like, ‘Wait, Lizzo are you a virgin?’. I remember it was so embarrassing, I said, ‘I love the D’ – and it held me over for a little while.” Lizzo also said that her first kiss was at the age of 21, after someone “forced it on me” at a New Year’s Eve celebration. “It was religious for me too. Like, when we were teenagers at my church, we all made a pact that we wouldn’t do anything before marriage,” she claimed. “And then, I was just so scared. Like, nobody wanted to kiss me.” Last year, Lizzo released the mixtape My Face Hurts From Smiling, featuring guest appearances from SZA and Doja Cat , predominantly made up of rap performances. She’s expected to release her third full-length album, titled Love In Real Life, later this year.
