In a delightful plot twist, one woman went out the night before Thanksgiving, buying groceries for other people with the money she won from the lottery.

But a few people wound up recognizing her as the singer and songwriter Sia.


In an effort of good will, Sia went out the night before Thanksgiving without her makeup and iconic wig that covers most of her face. She went under the guise of a lottery winner who wanted to pay for others' groceries with the money.

However, some of her fans were eventually able to place where they'd seen her before.

At a Walmart in Palm Springs, Sia managed to pick up the grocery bill for multiple shoppers before being discovered. In a video that's gone viral, a fan caught Sia on camera, buying groceries for someone in the checkout line.

She appears to have an issue with her card, which is quickly remedied. Then a grateful fan appears, offering her flowers. She accepts them gracefully and finishes her transaction.

At the end of the video, Sia begins looking at other checkout lines and says:

"Ta-da! Who's next?"

You can watch the video here:

The fan who filmed the video was so excited and struck by Sia's kindness, she completely blew Sia's cover by telling everyone who she was.

Countless fans and onlookers then began sharing selfies with Sia, as well as tweets about her kindness and authenticity.

Twitter has been overcome with feelings about how generous this was, and how lucky we are to have celebrities in the world who are willing to do such kind things.




We can all agree, Ceci the lottery winner is a sweet cover story. But seeing a celebrity show such unprompted and anonymous kindness is so much sweeter.

Sia's album Everyday Is Christmas 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.
