Apart from her comeback, the artist released details about her first project at Amazon Studios, where she took a first-look television deal last year to curate TV projects exclusively for the streaming giant. The untitled series will follow Lizzo "as she continues to search for dynamic, full-figured women to join her world and perform with her on stage. Only the most talented dancers and models will have what it takes to twerk it out on tour and stomp it out on the runway,", the studio's statement read. Lizzo will also be executively producing the upcoming unscripted series. 

The pop icon has won several accolades including 3 Grammy Awards in 2020, for Truth Hurts (best pop solo performance), Jerome (best traditional R&B performance) and Cuz I Love You (best urban contemporary album).
