Lizzo is honoring Tina Turner this Halloween.

The pop-rap star took to social media over the weekend to share a pair of photos of herself dressed as the late rock n’ roll icon, who died earlier this year at the age of 83.

“Honoring Tina Turner,” Lizzo captioned the images on Instagram, adding a red heart emoji.

In the snapshots, the “About Damn Time” singer is seen donning a Turner-inspired blonde colored wig and sporting sparkly black mini dress. Last year, she donned a hilarious costume of beloved Simpsons character Marge Simpson.

Following news of Turner’s death in late May, Lizzo carved out time in her concert that evening to commemorate the legendary musician’s impact and perform “Proud Mary” in her honor.

“Today we lost an icon,” a visibly emotional Lizzo told her crowd at Phoenix’s Footprint Center on May 24. “I haven’t allowed myself to be sad, I haven’t allowed myself to cry. I don’t want to right now, because I’d much rather celebrate.”

She continued, “As a Black girl with a rock band, I wouldn’t exist if there was not the queen of rock n’ roll.” She then passionately reminded everyone, “There would be no rock n’ roll without Tina Turner!”

Wearing a sparkly Turner-esque leotard and skirt, the Yitty founder then launched a performance of “Proud Mary” just like the late legend used to. “We gonna take it nice and easy right now,” Lizzo said, her band starting to play the 1970 smash’s iconic intro.
