Lizzo Breaks Down In Tears After Flute Legend Wishes Her A Merry Christmas With Sweet Video
Lizzo must have been good this year because Santa definitely delivered.
The classically trained flutist and singer was overwhelmed when she received a video from renowned fellow flutist James Galway, also known as "The Man with the Golden Flute."
In his video, Galway—with his festive tree in the background—played "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" on his flute.
He then said:
"Merry Christmas, Lizzo, from your number one fan!"
Lizzo shared the video on Twitter with the caption:
"This is the greatest gift"
"@sirjamesgalway wished *me* a merry Christmas!!"
"Price went up"
\u201cTHIS IS THE GREATEST GIFT @sirjamesgalway WISHED *ME* A MERRY CHRISTMAS!! PRICE WENT UP\ud83d\ude31\u201d— FOLLOW @YITTY (@FOLLOW @YITTY) 1672013826
In a follow up video, Lizzo—clearly emotional and in disbelief—asked, "Is that f**king James Galway?"
You can see her tear-filled "reaction" tweet below.

Fans of the "About Damn Time" singer were just as elated and shared their joy.
