Grrrl pwr.

If you’ve been waiting for Lizzo to release new music, you may be holding your breath a little while because the “Truth Hurts” singer has had her focus on another kind of project: her very own TV series.

The reality show, dubbed Watch Out For The Big Grrrls, will see the Grammy Award winner bring her iconic brand of empowerment and body positivity to the screen as she searches for dancers to join her next tour.

Of course, Lizzo isn’t searching for just anyone to take to the stage with her, rather, she’s looking for plus-size performers who will reframe how society sees the ‘perfect’ dancer.

What Is ‘Watch Out For The Big Grrrls’ About?

Across eight episodes, dancers will be invited to move into one house where they will undergo bootcamp-like auditions to land one of 10 coveted spots in Lizzo’s live shows.

“Girls who look like me don’t get representation,” Lizzo says in the first trailer, adding, “It’s time to roll up my sleeves and find them myself.”

It won’t just be Lizzo making the selections, she’ll be joined by “legendary choreographers”, including Tanisha Scott and O.G. Big Grrrls Chawnta’ Marie Van, Shirlene Quigley and Grace Holden as well as special guests like choreographer Charm La’Donna, body movement expert Rashida KhanBey Miller, and multi-platinum singer/songwriter SZA.
