Victoria Monét isn’t going to let a change in her body stop her from embracing her beauty! 

On Tuesday, the “On My Mama” singer took to her Instagram Story to post a picture from the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California, and candidly share the changes that she has noticed in her body. 

“Welp..I gained a lot of weight and it went a lot of places lol,” she wrote alongside a photo from her set during the second weekend of the festival.

Monét continued her post by sharing all of the places she’s noticed the weight gain, and used the moment to open up about a health struggle.

“Face, arms, tummy, and most effectively…datass**,” she quipped.

“I usually am so critical and frustrated by it because PCOS has me really messed up, but optimistically, at least now there’s two moons on stage,” she said, referencing the cutout chaps and the moon placement on her stage setup. 

According to the Mayo Clinic, “Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a problem with hormones that happens during the reproductive years. If you have PCOS, you may not have periods very often, or you may have periods that last many days. You may also have too much of a hormone called androgen in your body. With PCOS, many small sacs of fluid develop along the outer edge of the ovary called cysts. The small fluid-filled cysts contain immature eggs. These are called follicles. The follicles fail to regularly release eggs.”

The same day, the “How Does It Make You Feel” songstress shared a video celebrating her time at the music festival (and rocking the cutout chaps) with BTS content. 

“Damn Coachella 🏜️ I loved you and you loved me right back Thank you so much!!!🥂 we had the time of our lives 📸 @tyler_acremedia,” she wrote.

The singer is having a banner year, snagging her first three GRAMMY wins, while her and partner John Gaines’ daughter, 3-year-old Hazel, snagged her own nominations.

In March, the “Coastin'” singer spoke to ET and opened up about living in the moment and taking in all the positive changes. 

“It’s really just feels like God’s perfect plan,” she told ET. “When I thought it was time, it wasn’t time and now it is and I’m just happy to be here. I want to keep the momentum going, keep everybody excited and proud and do the right thing with the light.”
