Lizzo is opening up about how fame has impacted her mental health. In an interview with Variety, the 33-year-old musician revealed that her rise to stardom didn’t change who she was on the inside.

“People become famous, and it’s like — my DNA didn’t change,” she said. “Nothing changed about me. My anxiety didn’t go away. My depression didn’t go away. The things that I love didn’t go away. I’m still myself. But the way y’all look at me and perceive me has changed. It’s a very weird, kind of formless thing.”
