Godly Soulstress Jazmine Sullivan set the internet ABLAZE with her SNATCHED R&Baaawdy that she revealed on the gram while on set of her upcoming video for smoldering slow-burner “Lost One.”

The slimmy trimmy songbird flaunted enviable curves ahead of her highly anticipated album release currently being overshadowed by mangy miserables criticizing her stunning weight loss.

“Last week some people dragged me saying I look sickly. I’m honestly a size 12. 180 lbs,” she posted on her Instagram Stories. “There’s nothing skinny abt me but my neck 😩😂 I’m 5’8 however, so I sometimes photograph a little leaner than I am. But I ain’t skinny and that was never my goal.”

She was inspired to slim down and go vegan to support her mother who is battling cancer.

“My goal was to support my mother thru her battle w cancer by going vegan with her, and in turn it helped me as well. And I feel really good”

“I have a lot of things to work on in my journey and am not nearly the model for health and fitness. But I’m trying… And I’ll continue to do so w my momma! Bless ya’ll, love ya’ll”

Oh, but she wasn’t done.

“Stop talking bout people. Vote in November!”

Sullivan took five years off between sophomore album (2010’s “Love Me Back”) and follow-up (2015’s “Reality Show”) before taking another five-year break that ended with the release of “Lost One” off her upcoming EP.

“It makes the quality of living so much better when you just appreciate where you are,” said Sullivan in an interview with XO Necole. “Even if it’s not the best, even if you’re having hard times, just appreciate the fact that you’re here.”

“Why is it that whenever a lady loses weight, her fellow women moan about it and blame it on societal pressure???? It’s almost as if getting in shape is a bad thing. It’s like it’s impossible that Jazmine Sullivan made HER choice! What kind of fucked up world are we living in?” – questions that need answers

“Jazmine Sullivan explaining her weight loss is the reason a lot of people have lost hope in humanity! How did we get here? There is so much joy in embracing compassion. Let’s be kinder to ourselves. We are all we’ve got” – damn shame and people wonder why artists take YEARS off
