Lizzo is apparently kissing Twitter goodbye in 2020. The pop star took to Twitter to announce her departure on Sunday (Jan. 5).

“Yeah, I can’t do this Twitter no more..too many trolls…,” Lizzo tweeted alongside the peace sign emoji.

“I’ll be back when I feel like it.”

A day ago, Lizzo also took to Instagram to share a recent reflection with her fans.

“This decade is off to a soul-shaking start. These extreme highs and lows are like a rollercoaster and we are all strapped in, helplessly waiting for the next loop. I can’t help but to feel connected to everyone… can you?” she wrote.

“From what I’ve seen lately—the jokes, the memes, the grieving, the hopelessness as our planet heads to a fever— it’s like we’re all crying out hoping somebody hears us. I pray you feel seen and I pray your voice is heard because that’s precisely the tool we need if we’re going to make it through this. It’s time to speak up but most importantly show up. Our collective heavy hearts are searching for the light in this world.. it’s there, but we have to march through the darkness to reach it. Every act of love is an act of defiance to hate. How will you love today?”
