He called out, "Lizzo, I'm here!" The "About Damn Time" singer responded to the K-POP idol by sharing her Tiktok video, proving to the haters that "About Damn Time" is indeed the "song of the summer."

Unable to contain her excitement, she also shared it via Twitter, captioning it ""My Hope!!!! I'm so proud of him!!!!" Lizzo, in true Lizzo fashion, also plugged her music, telling fans that "baddies stream About Damn Time."

This isn't the first time Lizzo and J-Hope have interacted, though. In an interview with podcast show Audacy back in April, Lizzo shared that she and J-Hope have exchanged numbers and are in communication.

"I got J-Hope's number, so we be texting," the "Juice" singer revealed. "He's a great texter... If it's been a while since he's texted, he's like 'I'm so sorry,' and he apologises for how long it's taken."

Lizzo also expressed her interest in collaborating with not just J-Hope, but the entire group, BTS. "I have to be careful because their fans are fierce!" She added.

Superstars unite?

The collaboration between J-Hope and Lizzo or even BTS and Lizzo might be around the corner, seeing the K-POP boy group's massive success in the US market in recent years.

J-Hope made history by performing at Lollapalooza, reports say, even trending online with the hashtag #Hobipalooza, as fans say he claimed the concert and made it his own.

Hobi, as the fans dearly refer to him, performed about 20 tracks at the Chicago festival. He opened with "More," his debut solo single, and the tracks from his recently released debut solo album "Jack in The Box," "Pandora's Box," "Safety Zone," and "Arson."

Aside from his solo music, he also performed BTS tracks "Dynamite," "Trivia: Just Dance," and "Outro: Ego." BTS fans, more commonly known as ARMY, and other fans went wild with excitement.

Shortly before Lollapalooza, Hobi released "Jack in The Box." It is deemed a smashing hit, peaking at number 17 on Billboard 200.

"About Damn Time," the song he sang a sweet rendition of, on the other hand, is still dominating the Billboard Top 100 chart as of Aug. 1.
