Hurry up, it’s time for supper — order up, because Lizzo is hot to go! In a new post to her Instagram on Thursday night (Sept. 12), the “Good as Hell” singer shared her own rendition of Chappell Roan‘s runaway hit “Hot to Go!”
Dressed in an oversized T-shirt stating that she’s “100% that b—h,” Lizzo sang the song’s earworm chorus of “H-O-T-T-O-G-O/ You can take me hot to go” before offering an impressive riff on the final note.
“Aaaaand on that note, goodnight!” Lizzo wrote as a caption for the video, adding in separate comment that fans could call her “Usher Roan.”

This isn’t the first time Lizzo has spoken up about the “Pink Pony Club” singer. After Roan posted a series of TikToks setting firm boundaries with her fans, Lizzo responded with a message of support. “We all need a refresh on empathy. It’s very mindful. Very demure,” she said. “I’m gonna ride for Chappell because I see myself in her … She has the right to speak up for herself. She has the right to feel what she’s feeling.”
The news comes a few weeks after Lizzo announced that she would be taking “a gap year” as a means of “protecting my peace.” Staying in Bali, the singer has shared regular updates with her fans of her time abroad, including a comparison video that saw her reflecting on her mental health journey over the last three years.
“I wasn’t gonna post this on IG but 2021 me would be soooo proud of 2024 me,” she wrote. “And I’m NOT only talking about my body if yall only KNEWWWW what I’ve done for my mental & emotional health in the last year… wheeeew don’t worry imma write a album about it.”
