On November 18, Lizzo posted a TikTok stating that money and fame do not buy happiness. She stressed the importance of inner mental peace, stating, “I’m just telling everyone now, anyone who has internal issues or has like any type of self problems that they need to work out, work out now because money, fame, or success or even getting older doesn’t really fix that s—. You need to just do it. Do the inner work, because no matter where you are if you don’t, it’s going to haunt you like a f—ing ghost.”
