Lizzo and Boyfriend Myke Wright Make Rare Appearance for Oscars Afterparty Date Night as She Shows Off Dramatic Weight Loss

It’s love in real life for Lizzo and boyfriend Myke Wright!

The Grammy-winning singer and Wright stepped out for date night on Sunday, March 2, attending Vanity Fair’s annual Oscars party after the 97th Academy Awards together.

Lizzo, 36, wore a strapless black dress with a sheer skirt, while White, a comedian and actor, donned a black shirt with a gray jacket and pants.

Lizzo's look showed off her svelte figure, just two months after she revealed that she'd reached her "weight release goal," a term used to refer to a more holistic, well-rounded approach to weight loss.

"I did it," she captioned a post shared to Instagram in January. "Today when I stepped on my scale, I reached my weight release goal. I haven’t seen this number since 2014! Let this be a reminder you can do anything you put your mind to. Time for new goals!"

Her outing with Wright marked a rare public appearance for the couple, who last stepped out at the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscars party. They made their red carpet debut in June 2022 at an event for Lizzo’s Amazon Prime Video series Watch Out for the Big Grrrls, and have been linked since 2021.

In a November 2022 interview with VF, Lizzo called Wright “the love of my life,” and explained why she values monogamy in her relationships.

"People fight for monogamy like they pray to it every day. I am not a polyamorous person, I'm not in love with multiple partners. That is not me. He's [Wright] the love of my life. We are life mates," she said. "Do I want to get married? If I wanted to start a business with him, I'd get married because that's when your finances come together."

In an interview that December on The Howard Stern Show, the “Truth Hurts” singer revealed that she first met Wright in 2016 while co-hosting Wonderland on MTV, but it took a few years for things to turn romantic.

“We’re not playing any games with each other anymore. We’re very much locked in,” she said. "I had a lot of s--- to do, and I still was very much in my 'I feel un-loveable' place, and I still was very much not where I wanted to be career-wise," she told Stern. "Even if a person came around that I was googly gaga about, I had these wild defenses up that made it almost impossible for a true, intimate relationship to occur."

When Stern asked if there might be wedding bells in their future, Lizzo responded, “There’s nobody else I’m going to be with for the rest of my life.”
