As 2025 kicks off with her album holding the No. 1 spot in the country, SZA took time on Monday to respond to a segment of her fanbase frequently discussing her body size.
After a fan page shared a throwback clip of the “S.O.S.” singer from 2020, a comment referencing her BBL surgery and weight gain prompted SZA to speak out about the emotional impact such remarks have had on her.
She shared that the COVID-19 pandemic was a particularly tough time for her, marked by the loss of her grandmother and struggles with depression. The ongoing comments about her appearance, she revealed, have played a role in her decision to create distance from her fans, despite their loyalty.
SZA also mentioned she’s narrowing her inner circle, including changing her phone number to maintain boundaries. This shift may make it even harder for outsiders to secure tickets to her highly anticipated GNX Tour.
On a positive note, SZA has reconciled with TDE President Terrence “Punch” Henderson after a brief disagreement. Her “Lana” deluxe album continues to dominate the charts, solidifying her status as one of the leading artists heading into the new year.
