Lizzo must have been thinking "it's about damn time."

The singer has confessed that she was in her 30s before she lost her virginity, honoring a pact she made two decades earlier.

"I promised myself when I was younger that I wouldn't have sex until I won a Grammy," she revealed on the *Friends Keep Secrets *podcast, shocking hosts Benny Blanco, Lil Dicky, and Kristin Batalucco.

Lizzo, now 37, won her first Grammy in 2020. She took home three awards that night: Best Pop Solo Performance ("Truth Hurts"), Best Urban Contemporary Album (deluxe version of *Cuz I Love You*), and Best Traditional R&B Performance ("Jerome").

She didn't make good on her promise the night of the Grammys; however, it wasn't long after.

But before she marked the milestone rite of passage, "I lied about it for a long time," admitted Lizzo. "I feel a weight off of my chest right now."

Recalling her college days at the University of Houston, the singer shared an embarrassing moment among her friend group.

"We were all girling one night, and it was like, 'Wait, Lizzo, are you a virgin?' And I remember being like, 'No!'" she said. "I was remember it was so embarrassing. I said, 'I love the D'… And it held me over for a little while."

The self-admitted late bloomer also didn't share her first kiss until she was 21.

The delay was "religious," Lizzo explained. "Like, when we were teenagers at my church, we all made a pact that we wouldn't do anything before marriage. And then, I was just so scared. Like, nobody wanted to kiss me."

When someone finally did, it was "terrible," she complained.

"I was actually very upset about it," Lizzo told Blanco, "because it was like a New Year's Eve thing, and he like forced it on me. I was really mad, and I was like, 'My first kiss is ruined.' I was so mad."

Since 2021, she's dated comedian Myke Wright, who she first met back in 2016 when the pair hosted the MTV music series *Wonderland*, but there were no sparks at the time, she said.

"I have this rule where it's like if I'm working with a guy… it's closed," she said.
