The impending "hot vax summer" just got juicier, according to Lizzo, who declared the upcoming season "a– crack summer" in a butt-baring Instagram post.
In it, the 32-year-old Grammy winner is wearing a short purple dress with mesh siding and a deep cutout down the back. In another post in the same dress, her derriere is seen under a gold chain bearing her name. In a third post, the star strikes a confident pose, saying "Sorry in advance??? Can't relate."
The whole ensemble is accentuated with lace-up stilettos, gold hoops, and a fountain of curls.
The singer's post is the latest in what appears to be a national trend among soon-to-be-vaccinated Americans who are ready to come out of their pandemic cocoons this summer.
"How do I get a thick and juicy ass by the time I'm vaxxed in the next two or three months?" one reader asked Vice's Casey Johnson, who wrote she agreed to answer because people are "furiously clicking on butt-workout videos now more than ever in anticipation of this summer."
Tiana Glittersaurus Rex, a sex educator, erotic-content creator, and event curator based in New York City, told Insider's Julia Naftulin she can't wait to leave the secluded New Jersey farm she's been staying in with her mom and embrace "cuddles, kisses, my a-- being grabbed, and walking down the street in a skirt with no underwear."
Lizzo's style has always been daring
Lizzo is no stranger to bold fashion statements that celebrate her curves and sometimes her take on current events. On Election Day 2020, for one, she wore an American flag jumpsuit that covered only half her body to "represent the percentage of people who didn't vote in the previous presidential election," her stylist said.
She's also donned fishnet tops, lingerie, and sported a T-shirt dress with no backside at a 2019 Lakers game.
Her daring looks have sometimes sparked negative responses, but, in keeping with the self-love she also preaches in her music, she's expertly shrugged off critics on Instagram.
"This is who I've always been," the singer said in 2019. "Now everyone's lookin' at it, and your criticism can just remain your criticism. Your criticism has no effect on me. Negative criticism has no stake in my life."
"I'm surrounded by love, and I just wanna spread that love - and also spread these cheeks," she added. "And if you really, really don't like my a-- you can kiss it."
