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

Make us preferred on Google

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!"

You can watch the TikTok below.

'Young Sheldon' Star Explains Why She Asked For An Intimacy Coordinator On The Show—And It Makes Sense

Entertainment journalist and Glamour magazine Senior West Coast Editor Jessica Radloff's new book, Young Sheldon: The (Juicier-Than-Meemaw’s-Brisket) Inside Story of the Hit Comedy, shared a story about actor Emily Osment joining the show in its fifth season that's drawing praise for her consideration for her fellow child star, Montana Jordan.

Osment, who began acting at age five, is one of a rare breed in Hollywood—a child star turned successful adult actor. It's a journey many kids have infamously stumbled on, but that Jordan has also successfully navigated perhaps in part thanks to Osment.

Texas GOP's Bizarre Text Warning Voters About 'Weirdo Furry Socialists' Sparks Mockery

The message was sent Saturday alongside a photo purportedly showing a man wearing a fox-tail accessory as he left a polling location in Collin County. The message identified its sender as Texans for Common Sense, a political action committee funded entirely by Texans United for a Conservative Majority PAC, a far-right organization backed by West Texas oil billionaire Tim Dunn.
