Lizzo performs two new tracks from upcoming album on Saturday Night Live
Lizzo returned to the Saturday Night Live stage for a fourth time on April 12, 2025, as the musical guest for episode 17 of season 50. She previously performed in episodes hosted by Eddie Murphy and Austin Butler and also appeared as both host and musical guest in a past season.
For her first set of the night, Lizzo performed a medley of Love in Real Life and her latest single Still Bad, both tracks from her upcoming fifth studio album. The performance featured a projected American flag backdrop and a crop top with the word "TARRIFIED," worn during the rendition of Still Bad.
