Lizzo appeared emotional as she let out a sigh before telling Tracy: ‘Yeah, yeah. And, like, woo, staying in people’s rooms and sleeping on their couches’.

‘And now, on this past tour, which I was blessed to, you know, stay in really nice places, but I was like, ”I miss my house.

Lizzo appeared as musical guest on Saturday Night Live and touched off a flood of emotion when she re-created a beloved piece of art as she paid homage to the famous Annie Lee painting Blue Monday during her performance of Break Up Twice.

The painting is a self-portrait of the artist, who passed away in 2017 at the age of 79. She didn’t paint her face onto the woman so others could identify with the emotion.

Other pieces of her art were featured on TV programs such as The Cosby Show and A Different World.

Lizzo earlier this month accepted the People’s Champion award at the 2022 People’s Choice Awards and promptly shared it with 17 female advocates who she brought on stage.
