Lizzo took to social media on Monday (Aug. 29) to show off her run-in with one-half of BLACKPINK at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards.
In a TikTok, the Special singer approached Lisa and Jisoo for a cute video on behalf of a follower, who requested, “TAKE A SELFIE WITH BLACKPINK FOR ME!!!! PLEASE.” While fans can’t hear what the K-pop idols and Lizzo are saying to each other due to the latter’s new single “2 Be Loved (Am I Ready)” playing over top of the clip, the singer assured her followers, “THEY ARE SO SWEET” in the caption.
Both Lizzo and BLACKPINK were among the performers to hit the stage during the awards show on Sunday night, with the former playing a medley of her No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 hit “About Damn Time” and “2 Be Loved” and the girl group making their U.S. awards show debut with an electrifying rendition of Born Pink lead single “Pink Venom.”
And while Lizzo took home the video for good Moon Person for “About Damn Time” during the telecast, Lisa beat out BTS, ITZY, SEVENTEEN, Stray Kids and TWICE to win best K-pop for her eponymous and swaggering debut solo single “LALISA.” During her acceptance speech, Lizzo also took a page from the Nicki Minaj playbook to clap back “what’s good?”-style at comedian Aries Spears for attempting to throw shade at her.
Watch Lizzo’s giddy meet-up with Lisa and Jisoo below.
