Lizzo Went Through An Intense Haunted House On 'Ellen', And She Was Having None Of It

Halloween has come and gone, but that doesn't mean the jump-scares are over.

Universal Studios Hollywood made sure to continue scaring the living daylights out of mortals past All Hallow's Eve as part of their annual Halloween Horror Nights event that just wrapped up on Sunday.


And Ellen DeGeneres took advantage of the opportunity to laugh at recording artist and actress Lizzo as she navigated one of the park's scary mazes with the Ellen DeGeneres Show's executive producer Andy Lassner.

Lassner—who has a reputation on Ellen for being reliably startled—and the "Truth Hurts" singer tip-toed through the "Pandora's Cabinet of Curiosities" maze and delivered with their terrified reactions.

The talk-show host shared what has become an annual Halloween tradition with the entertaining haunted maze footage.

She introduced the segment by telling her studio audience:

"I recently sent my producer Andy to go look at a house. Unfortunately for him, it was a haunted house, and we said, 'Let's send Lizzo.'"

This is how their tour went down.

It was a riot from the start as Lizzo proclaimed "We're about to rock this b*tch!" and Andy echoed the cocky sentiment seconds before jumping out of his skin thanks to a demonic entity.

The team dove in through the maze, and Lizzo greeted the apparating ghouls and lycans with the middle finger and plenty of bleeped-out expletives.

In between the unpredictable scares, she filled moments of deafening silence by invoking a higher power to calm her, saying, "Thank you, Jesus, Thank you, Jesus," while Lassner responded with, "Jewish! Jewish!"

After surviving the torment, Lizzo explained her reactions later on Twitter, letting people know what they saw on camera wasn't close to what it was like being there.

Lizzo posted:

"It looks waaaay less scary than it was... don't get it twisted... w/out that light it was a nightmare."

Umm-hmm.

Whatever you say, Lizzo.

Lassner, who was no help as a companion and at one point scolded Lizzo telling her not to "f*****g run away from me," later joked:

"It was an honor to protect you."

Classic Andy.


One of the highlights included Lizzo twerking her way out of a situation and leaving Lassner behind.




They conquered, although Lassner may have lost a tooth and Lizzo almost lost her weave after stumbling to the ground in fear from the final jump-scare.





While they escaped without injury, we were left in stitches.

Thanks, Ellen and team!

Lizzo's album Cuz I Love You is available here.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
