Lizzo Launches New Era with 'Love in Real Life' Single and Video

The pop star returns after a two-year hiatus, previewing her upcoming fifth album with a cinematic music video and intimate tour dates.

Lizzo's new single 'Love in Real Life' marks her first solo release since 2023 and serves as the lead track for her forthcoming fifth album, expected this summer.
The Colin Tilley-directed music video features a club scene that evolves into a nightmarish dance-off, drawing comparisons to Michael Jackson's 'Thriller.'
Lizzo described the song as part of a 'new era' of music, following a two-year creative process and a break from public life to focus on personal growth and her shapewear brand, Yitty.
The single reflects themes of loneliness and yearning, blending indie rock and funk influences reminiscent of Prince's 'Purple Rain' era.
To celebrate the release, Lizzo announced three intimate live shows in Los Angeles, New York, and Minneapolis in March, with pre-sale sign-ups now available.
