Lizzo Procura por Mulheres Grandes

Didn't realize how this important it was to see myself and those around me represented in the dance community. Would've loved a show like this as a teen!

Lizzo's show is groundbreaking and will undoubtedly make many uncomfortable and outraged and her unabashed acceptance of large bodies. Her focus on bringing women up instead of tearing them down is refreshing and well past due in our society and on reality shows. This show is about strength, coordination, commitment and confidence. These large bodied women do things that most women could not do regardless of body size. Thank you Lizzo and the team for putting yourselves out there and taking a stance against judgement and undeserved negative messaging around natural bodies of all shapes, sizes and skin tones.

I have to say upfront that as someone in their 50s, I am not the target audience for this show. So while all the "you go girl" and "slay queen" sentiments make me wince, I can see that a younger audience would find it inspirational.

Lizzo herself comes across as a fun lady, somewhat bawdy and sweet at the same time, but I think the show has pigeonholed her into being a hyper-positive role model. All people are a combination of good, bad, positive, critical, mean and kind, but we are only allowed to see the good facets of her personality, making her a one-dimensional host.

I would love to see what her full personality is like. The parts where the camera lingers after she delivers yet another platitude are quite telling - she's almost laughing at herself, joking around. I would have like see more of that.

The contestants themselves aren't really all that exciting - LIzzo is the star of the show, and I think most people are aware that shows like this only exist to prop up the host and increase their fan base. Their journey also lacks any real tension because the eliminations are not part of every show, and it's reasonably obvious who is going to make the cut.

All in all, it's a a good time passer and for some it will be more than that. Someone a lot younger and less cynical than me.

Great job Lizzo! It's the show that I didn't know I needed to see.

I used to be one of those ladies when I was much younger. It reminded me of the way I was treated then. It started out good then a couple of episodes were a little preachy about the misrepresentation of overweight ladies and the constant reaffirmation that they deserved to be stars. Still, I had become invested in these ladies' journeys.

As a skinny girl I have never experienced anything these girls have been through but I was able to understand and emphasize with them while watching this, Lizzo is such a good rolemodel and she's a great host for the journey these girls are gonna go through

So after saying all of that this show is legit BADASS the dancing is phenomenal they all dance very great and you have intimate moments with the girls and them accepting and respecting themselves and their bodies this is a very body positivity show it's mainly about Lizzo looking for new background dancers for her performances and tours and she wants to get dancers that are big girls well they put it as grrrls and I love that, and it's sort of a competition show for the 10 spots Lizzo has for her background dancers and 13 girls are brought in and they have to basically compete for the 10 spots but during it they all learn to grow with eachother and bond till the end when it comes to whose securing the 10 spots so the girls stay in a mansion together and you just see day to day each challenge they go through. And of course there's some drama but it doesn't take over the whole show or of how every episode is.

So I Really Recommend it whether your skinny or big or whatever, this show will still make you feel positive about yourself regardless and I love seeing a show that showcases big girl bodies and how girls live with it and embrace it so yes I really recommend it, Everyone should give it a watch I guarantee you'll like it or at least enjoy it :)
