“Lizzo kept it fly for Halloween this year. The “Truth Hurts” singer transformed into the now-infamous fly that appeared on Mike Pence’s head during the vice presidential debate last month. On Saturday, she posted a video on Instagram that featured her rocking the fly outfit, complete with wings and “Vote” pins. “Aaaaand we just gettin started,” the singer-rapper wrote in the post’s caption.

One post had an edited clip from the debate in which Pence is talking while Lizzo, dressed as a fly, twerks on top of his head to Big Sean’s song “I Don’t Fuck With You.” “I voted for Joe] Biden,” she wrote in that caption. The real fly on Pence’s head sparked widespread reactions in real time from Twitter users watching the debate. It also landed a spot in a “Saturday Night Live” parody that week. Pence has since said he didn’t notice the fly at the time, while Harris has noted she was well aware of the bug.

During her acceptance speech for winning Top Song Sales Artist at the Billboard Music Awards last month, she urged viewers to fight all forms of suppression while wearing a black-and-white dress with a “Vote” print. “When people try to suppress something, it’s normally because that thing holds power,” she said. “They’re afraid of your power. There’s power in who you are. There’s power in your voice. So whether it’s through music, protests or your right to vote, use your power, use your voice and refuse to be suppressed.” YES, @lizzo! 👏 Congrats on your #BBMAs Top Song Sales Artist award. pic.twitter.com/MbyhXG0oV3— Billboard Music Awards (@BBMAs) October 15, 2020
