SZA and Lizzo had a twerk-off during the Grand National Tour stop in Paris. On Wednesday night, Lizzo joined her good friend SZA onstage to perform 'IRL' from her My Face Hurts From Smiling EP for the first time. 'BAD BITCH… in REAL LIFEEEE @sza !!!!!' Lizzo captioned a clip of the pair singing the track, adding the hashtag #stadiumstatus. 'Thanks for letting me throw it byke on ur stage 😗.'

'I really appreciate her, because she understands — and I think it's really hard for you to have someone in your life who actually fucks with you and who's known you for a long time who also understand the world that you're in,' Lizzo told Billboard.

Lizzo's Mixtape Fails To Chart — But She Does Score A New Top 10 Hit
Lizzo's 'Leftright' debuts at No. 10 on the Rap Digital Song Sales chart, becoming her fourth top 10 ... More on the tally despite her new mixtape failing to chart.

(Photo by Angela WEISS / AFP) (Photo by ANGELA WEISS/AFP via Getty Images) Lizzo spent the first several months of 2025 releasing singles from her upcoming album Love in Real Life, which is still expected at some point this year. The rapper and singer shared a pair of tracks — 'Love in Real Life' and 'Still Bad' — but sadly, neither tune made any real commercial impact in the United States. So, the Grammy winner decided to change things up. On June 27, Lizzo dropped a new mixtape titled My Face Hurts From Smiling. The project arrived with very little warning, as the singer-songwriter only revealed its existence a few days before it was released. While the mixtape itself hasn't proved to be a standout win, one track from the effort has become a hit. Lizzo's New Hit Song 'Leftright' appears to be the fan favorite from My Face Hurts From Smiling, as it's the only tune featured on the brand new mixtape to appear on the Billboard rankings this week. The track opens at No. 10 on the Rap Digital Song Sales chart and No. 12 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales tally. Lizzo Earns Another Top 10 Sales Smash 'Leftright' marks Lizzo's fourth career top 10 on the Rap Digital Song Sales chart, a list that currently features only 10 positions. She ruled the tally for 16 weeks beginning in August 2019 with 'Truth Hurts,' her breakout smash, which turned her into a household name more than half a decade ago. Lizzo then returned to the top 10 on the roster of the bestselling rap tracks in the country with 'Tempo,' a collaboration with Missy Elliott (No. 5 peak), and later with 'Rumors' alongside Cardi B (No. 2). 'Leftright' Misses the Top 10 on Another Billboard List Lizzo has enjoyed greater success on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales tally, which is longer, and therefore easier to reach. Throughout her career, the superstar has now earned a milestone 10 placements on the purchase-only ranking, including eight top 10s and four champions. 'Leftright' is one of only two tracks by Lizzo to fail to crack the top 10 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales list. The other, 'Cuz I Love You,' debuted and peaked at No. 14 in February 2020. That makes 'Leftright' her second-lowest-charting title on the tally. Lizzo's New Mixtape Fails to Chart Aside from 'Leftright,' My Face Hurts From Smiling did not impact the Billboard charts. The mixtape doesn't appear on any rankings dedicated to full-length projects, as it didn't sell well enough or rack up enough streams to appear on tallies focused on those forms of consumption – nor does it show up on any lists that look exclusively at rap and hip-hop releases.

Lizzo's ‘Face Hurts From Smiling' On New Mixtape
Lizzo Since the release of her 2022 album Special, Lizzo has been working behind the scenes creating new music while putting in TV guest spots on The Mandalorian and The Simpsons. In March, the Grammy-winning hitmaker announced she had completed her next studio album, Love in Real Life, first teased with the single of the same name in February and 'Still Bad" the next month. While her next LP is coming down the pike, Lizzo is tiding fans over with another project in the meantime: My Face Hurts From Smiling, her first major-label mixtape since signing with Atlantic Records in 2016. Her Special album largely stuck to family-friendly empowerment anthems, but on the new mixtape, Lizzo shows she's ready to party this summer with songs like 'Yitty on Yo T*ttys (Freestyle)," 'Gotcho B***h,' 'Bend It Ova,' and 'Droppin' On It.' To help turn up the fun, Lizzo brought along Doja Cat on 'Still Can't Fuh' and SZA on 'IRL." The latter marks the duo's second collaboration after their 2023 remix of Lizzo's 'Special.' Last month, SZA brought out Lizzo to perform the song during the first L.A. stop of her and Kendrick Lamar's Grand National Tour. After the 'About Damn Time' singer announced My Face Hurts From Smiling's forthcoming release earlier this week, SZA said on Instagram 'I'm not kidding, this is actually the most fye mixtape ever," according to Billboard. Lizzo performed a one-off show in Los Angeles in March, her first in two years, which she said helped her get back on her feet. She told fans she'd been in 'such a dark depression' before her return to the stage after taking her so-called 'gap year' from the spotlight. 'I was so heartbroken by the world, and so deeply hurt that I didn't want to live anymore, and I was so deeply afraid of people that I didn't want to be seen,' she said at the show, per Rolling Stone. A release date for Love in Real Life has yet to be announced.
