Haters are gonna hate, so you might as well play along with them.
Internet trolls and haters know they've made it when their insults are featured on Jimmy Kimmel Live's "Mean Tweets" segment.
On Wednesday night's show, Lizzo—whose album Cuz I Love You: Super Deluxe is available here—was one of several musicians to read out the meanest and rudest comments from their Twitter feeds.
Lizzo had the best clap back to one hater's comment.
The 31 year old "Truth Hurts" singer read a post by Twitter user @mikeb73.
@mikeb73's tweet read:
"Lizzo. Bus passes and happy meals. Two things that I imagine #Lizzo has seen a lot of. #sh**e #bbc3"
Lizzo was visibly amused by the comment, and immediately had an amazing retort:
"Yeah, I'm a big b***h and I ride a bus. A tour bus, motherf***er. Where's yours?"
You can watch the hilarious segment below. Lizzo's tweet comes around the 1:52 mark:
NEW #MeanTweets Music Edition with @BillieEilish @MidlandOfficial @ChanceTheRapper @LukeBryanOnline @PerryFarrell… https://t.co/fO31KtOdPc— Jimmy Kimmel (@Jimmy Kimmel) 1573707880.0
Kimmel's audience erupted into cheers over her "Good As Hell" response, and so did the internet.
Youtube user Rabbit commented:
"'WHERE'S YOURS?' oh my goodness Lizzo is so awesome"

Lizzo is a champion of body positivity and self love.
Lizzo just delivered a masterclass in how to clap back to fatshamers https://t.co/4NJeN6qfLG #Lizzo #MeanTweets https://t.co/BKTvxBg1gF— Stylist Magazine (@Stylist Magazine) 1573759742.0
The curvy singer has been very open with fans about her struggles with body image, and her journey to self acceptance and unapologetic confidence. She talked about becoming a pop star while being faced with fat-phobia and Euro-centric beauty standards in the media in an interview with Vogue earlier this year.
She told Vogue:
"I didn't have enough women to look up to and they weren't given enough space in the industry to carve out a lane for big girls that are brown and black and want to sing and dance without getting sh** talked and body shamed. I'm out here and I set my mind to it. I want to be a sex symbol and music goddess and I'm out here trying to make that happen for myself. I'm here for the fantasy but I want to be a part of that fantasy. I'm just as fine as those girls."
Cardi B., Billie Eilish, Monsta X, Chance the Rapper, Luke Bryan, Green Day, Perry Farrell, Midland, Leon Bridges, John Mayer, Alice Cooper, and Luke Combs also appeared on Kimmel's November 13th "Mean Tweets" segment.
