Lizzo brought the house down on Saturday Night Live!

The singer, 36, appeared as the musical guest on the April 12 episode of the late-night comedy sketch series, which saw Jon Hamm serve as host.

For her first musical performance, Lizzo sang a medley of “Love in Real Life” and “Still Bad” from her soon-to-be-released album, Love in Real Life.

She appeared to poke fun at President Donald Trump’s administration during the set, wearing a cropped T-shirt with the word “TARRIFIED” written across it. Lizzo paired the top with shorts and a sparkly jacket.

Lizzo released her first album, Lizzobangers, in 2013. She followed that LP with Big Grrrl Small World in 2015, Cuz I Love You in 2019 and Special in 2022.

The musician also recently released “Pink” from Barbie the Album, the soundtrack that accompanied the 2023 film Barbie.

Lizzo’s SNL appearance came about amid her ongoing legal battle with her former backup dancers.

The individuals filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against Lizzo in August 2023. In the filing, the three dancers claimed they were abused, harassed, discriminated against and faced numerous workplace violations while working for the Grammy winner and her Big Grrrl Big Touring Inc.

In February 2024, Lizzo attempted to dismiss the lawsuit and was denied.

Speaking with Jay Shetty on his On Purpose podcast earlier this month, Lizzo explained that her disappearance after the lawsuit was not a result of the scandal tied to it — but a much-needed way of “protecting my peace” she had already planned.

Saturday Night Live airs weekends on NBC. Love in Real Life is set to be released this year.
