On Saturday, the three-time Grammy winner, 33, penned a thoughtfulInstagrampost on self-love, complementing a clip showcasing her embracing her fully nude body.
“If you love me… you love all of me. You dont get to pick and choose,” her honest post began. “We should be unconditionally loving of one another, starting with being unconditionally loving to ourselves.”
“Take a moment today and think about the conditions we hold so tightly to that keep us from the freedom of true love. Do you really wanna be so tightly wound? Free yourself in love. You deserve it,” the “Truth Hurts” singer continued.
Her video, which quickly amassed well over 2 million views, also garnered plenty of heart and fire emojis, including some from modelTess Holliday, who simply commented, “🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥”

“People who have something mean to say about you, and for the most part it doesn’t hurt my feelings, I don’t care,” she said. “I just think when I’m working this hard, my tolerance gets lower, my patience is lower. I’m more sensitive, and it gets to me.”

“It’s fatphobic, it’s racist, and it’s hurtful,” she said. “What I won’t accept is y’all doing this to Black women over and over and over again, especially us big Black girls. When we don’t fit into the box that you want to put us in, you just unleash hatred onto us. It’s not cool. I’m doing this s— for the big Black women in the future who just want to live their lives without being scrutinized or put into boxes.”
