One of the many celebrity guests joining this year’s broadcast is Lizzo, whom explained ahead of this year's show, how music is therapy for her.
“Music is therapy for me for sure. Like I’ve always written songs, I’ve been writing songs since I was nine years old, writing poems and stories,” Lizzo shared. “Writing was a form of escapism when I was a kid, and I feel like I still do that now.”
