Lizzo appeared as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live, with a Special track delivery and her own rendition of a Christmas classic.

The chart-topper, who took the place of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, began her performance with “Break Up Twice,” transforming the SNL set into a bedroom before appearing with a full band at the Special track’s peak. Following the initial single’s conclusion, Lizzo got into the holiday spirit with a performance of “Someday at Christmas,” the lead track from Stevie Wonder’s 1967 Christmas album of the same moniker.

“I chose to cover ‘Someday at Christmas’ not just because it’s a classic, but because it’s a reminder to us that almost 60 years later, we are still fighting for peace, compassion and equality,” Lizzo said in a statement. “A friendly reminder to spread love and kindness this holiday season.”

Aside from her performance, Lizzo appeared in the “Please Don’t Destroy” sketch, which took a hilarious approach to “plastic clothing.” Notably, the episode marked Cecily Strong’s final appearance as a cast member, following her 11-season run on the series.
