The 'About Damn Time' singer got real in a TikTok while she got ready for jury duty about why it stresses her out.

Stars... they're just like us.

Well, maybe not just, but still. We do our hair toss, check our nails—and report to jury duty.


Whomp. whomp.

Yep, our beloved Lizzo was summoned for jury duty and she was "not excited." Totally relatable.

In a TikTok earlier this week, Lizzo shared her process for getting ready to fulfill her civic duty.

"I'm not excited about jury duty. I'm actually really stressed about it because I've just heard people getting really gruesome, violent cases, and I have a really sensitive mind and I don't like hearing or seeing that."
"I would cry."

She then gave a glimpse of outfit options before locking down on a Yitty prototype bodysuit (from her own line), Black History pants and Prada sneakers.

She finished:

"Wish me luck!"

Conservative Tries To Claim Disney+ Show Is Somehow Satanic Due To Joke—And Gets Instantly Fact-Checked

It's the holidays again, which of course means the yearly tradition of Christians having a meltdown about supposedly being persecuted by the existence of non-Jesusy Christmas stuff is back with a vengeance.

Massachusetts Catholic Church Angers Conservatives With Its Brutal ICE-Themed Nativity Scene

The Christian Bible teaches that the Holy Family—Joseph, Mary, and Jesus—were residents of the Herodian ruled Nazareth, Galilee. Having traveled back to Joseph's ancestral home—Roman ruled Bethlehem, Judea—for the census, Mary and Joseph, in modern American parlance, would have been homeless immigrants/tourists having an "anchor baby" at the time of Jesus' birth.

While Joseph considered Galilee his immediate family's home, the trio would eventually flee to Egypt as refugees to escape from King Herod.
