Lizzo And Her Recorder Took A Trip To The Shire To Pay Homage To Lord Of The Rings, And It's Utterly Delightful

Lizzo performing at the Shire

Few movie franchises have been quite as monumental as the Lord of the Rings, Peter Jackson’s trilogy made billions of dollars and won countless awards, and is that rare adaptation that even diehard fans of the books tend to love. And we can apparently count Lizzo among those serious fans, as she recently visited the Shire and put together some amazing TikToks of her time there.

The set for the Shire that was recreated for the Hobbit movies was left standing after production was completed, and so it still exists as a tourist attraction in New Zealand. Lizzo appears to have made a trip there and had quite the Tolkien experience, as she dressed as an elf, complete with prosthetic ears, and calling herself “Lizzolas. ” And then she performed the movie’s classic Shire theme on her recorder. The result is beautiful.
