Lizzo has restricted her Twitter account and threatened to walk away from her music career after clapping back at the hateful comments and messages she receives on social media.

“JUST logged on and the app and this is the type of s### I see about me on a daily basis It’s really starting to make me hate the world.” The “About Damn Time” singer then responded to some in the comments who said she eats a lot of fast food.

“I LITERALLY STOPPED EATING FAST FOOD YEARS AGO, she replied. “I’m tired of explaining myself all the time and I just wanna get on this app w/out seeing my name in some b#######.”

In another post, Lizzo revealed how close she is to quitting the music industry for life on a farm.

“I HATE IT HERE. The Love definitely do not outweigh the Hate on social media… all because I’m fat????” she stated. “Y’all don’t know how close I be to giving up on everyone and quitting and enjoying my money and my man on a F###### FARM.”
