Truth hurts?
Lizzo took a jab at President Donald Trump’s tariff increase with a cheeky T-shirt during her performance on “Saturday Night Live.”
During a medley of “Love in Real Life” and “Still Bad” on the NBC show Saturday night, the pop star, born Melissa Jefferson, rocked a black sleeveless crop top with red letters that read, “TARIFFIED.”
Lizzo paired the shady shirt with a pair of black sequin hot pants adorned with silver stars, fishnet stockings and a pair of patent leather red heels.
The “Good As Hell” singer’s message comes after Trump, 78, placed tariffs of up to 145% on Chinese goods.
The president also taxed goods from all other countries, arguing that the tariffs would boost US manufacturing and protect jobs.
Lizzo, who supported former Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election against Trump, has previously spoken out against the billionaire.
Last October, the four-time Grammy winner slammed Trump during one of Harris’ Michigan rallies after he compared the city of Detroit to a “developing nation” during a campaign event.
“I’m so proud to be from this city,” the singer, a Detroit native, told the crowd.
“You know, they say if Kamala Harris wins, then the whole country will be like Detroit, okay? Proud like Detroit. Resilient like Detroit,” Lizzo, 36, continued.
“We’re talking about the same Detroit that innovated the auto industry and the music industry, so put some respect on Detroit’s name!”
After Trump defeated Harris, 60, in the election last November, Lizzo took to social media to send “LOVE to everyone in the WORLD.”
