In fact, she\u2019s looking for more thick chicks to join her twerking troupe on \u201cLizzo\u2019s Watch Out for the Big Grrrls,\u201d her new reality show that premiered Friday (March 25) on Prime Video. The prize for the backup dancers who brought it with \u201cthat jiggle, that wiggle and everything in the middle\u201d \u2014 as Lizzo puts it in the first of eight episodes \u2014 was the chance to perform with her at the 2021 Bonnaroo Music &amp; Arts Festival, with the \u201cbaddest bitches\u201d also earning spots on her 2022 world tour. \u201cWe come with the energy, the stamina, the flexibility,\u201d says Lizzo. \u201cBig girls are doing it, honey.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>No doubt, from splits to back flips, there is plenty of full-figured fierceness on display as Lizzo challenges, \u201cI wanna see who can dance outside of their body.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With just 21 days until Bonnaroo, the show kicks off with a group of 13 dancers who have different shades, styles and backstories. There\u2019s even a transgender woman named Jayla, a former gymnast who describes her life in a song title as \u201cA Hot Mess.\u201d By the end of the first episode, only 10 will make it into the \u201cBig Grrrls Mansion,\u201d where they will live while they continue auditioning for Lizzo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cY\u2019all better dance for your life,\u201d says Lizzo, echoing the \u201cLip Sync for Your Life\u201d battle to avoid elimination on \u201cRuPaul\u2019s Drag Race.\u201d While the \u201cDrag Race\u201d influence is clearly there throughout \u201cWatch Out for the Big Grrrls,\u201d it\u2019s more so in the empowering spirit that gives those who have felt like they were on the outside looking in a chance to be seen \u2014 belly fat and all.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/ULMA_S1_UT_101_210812_CLAJAM_01983R.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Cast shot from &quot;Lizzo's Watch Out for the Big Grrrls.&quot;\" class=\"wp-image-21665776\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/ULMA_S1_UT_101_210812_CLAJAM_01983R.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/ULMA_S1_UT_101_210812_CLAJAM_01983R.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/ULMA_S1_UT_101_210812_CLAJAM_01983R.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>\u201cLizzo\u2019s Watch Out for the Big Grrrls\u201d offers the contestants a chance to perform with Lizzo on her 2022 World Tour.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">James Clark\/Amazon Prime Video<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThey don\u2019t want big girls to be sexy; they don\u2019t want us to be happy,\u201d Lizzo says in the third episode about haters who have fat-shamed her. \u201cIt\u2019s hard to love yourself in a world that doesn\u2019t love you back.\u201d<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>So what does Lizzo do? She sends the girls to a sensual movement coach to embrace their sexiness and give their bodies some self-love.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In Episode 4, Lizzo takes it even further by arranging a nude photo shoot for the dancers. And while there are those who are still battling some lifelong insecurities, others have grown in curvy confidence. \u201cI\u2019ma tell you the part of my body that\u2019s my favorite is my back roll, because for so long it was my least favorite,\u201d says one dancer. \u201cAnd I learned just to say, \u2018This is my whole bakery.\u2019 \u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s these kind of feel-good-as-hell moments that are the best in the first half of \u201cWatch Out for the Big Grrrls,\u201d which otherwise lacks real tension and suspense. A big part of that is because there is no automatic elimination process \u2014 Lizzo and her choreographer\/creative director Tanisha Scott could conceivably take all 10 girls if they crush it in the countdown to Bonnaroo.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It makes for an atmosphere that is less of a competition and more of a sisterhood. And while it wouldn\u2019t be a reality show without a little drama between 10 ladies under one roof, it\u2019s pretty tame stuff by \u201cBig Brother,\u201d or certainly \u201cReal Housewives,\u201d standards.<\/p>\n<p>But as \u201cWatch Out for the Big Grrrls\u201d continues, the challenges feel less contrived and the action gets juicier as Bonnaroo gets closer. Along the way, everything from eating disorders and body dysmorphia to colorism and the Black Lives Matter movement is addressed.<\/p>\n<p>And with her plus-sized personality radiating \u201cbig girl energy,\u201d Lizzo leaves you convinced that there is a talk show in her future.\u00a0\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async defer src=\"https:\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
