Lizzo's Spirited MTV Awards Performance Is the Sister Act Tribute We Never Knew We Needed

Get the Full StoryI would hereby like to petition the MTV Movie and TV Awards to henceforth be called the MTV Lizzo Awards instead, since her phenomenal performance was easily the most exciting moment from the evening.

The annual show, which was filmed over the weekend but aired on Monday, June 17, had its fair share of glitzy attendees - Sandra Bullock! Dwayne Johnson! Elisabeth Moss! - but Lizzo immediately stood out. The wildly talented "Truth Hurts" singer rocked a neon green, feathered dress on the red carpet, and then made her way inside to perform a spirited rendition of "Juice" onstage from her latest album, Cuz I Love You.

The "baddest rapper, singer, and flutist" in the game Tiffany Haddish's words, but also mine , began her performance dressed in choir robes, but soon revealed that she had something a little more jaw-dropping in mind when she instructed her back-up singers and dancers to strip down to street clothes and bop around the stage.

Watch her performance above, and then keep scrolling to see how fans reacted to Lizzo's cheeky Sister Act reference!
