Lizzo crashed a live Peloton Ride
Lizzo stunned a group of lucky riders at Peloton’s New York studio, on Friday 15th July at she strutted into their live class.
The class was led by instructors Robin Arzón and Jess Sims with multiple attendees. While the fitness enthusiasts were preparing for their session, the Grammy-winning singer walked into the class leaving everyone with their jaws dropped.
The 34-year-old diva entered the studio to perform her platinum-certified single Good as Hell, which left the crowd roaring.
The songstress performed a 30-minute two-for-one ride and delivered several of her old as well as new hit tracks.
During the show, Lizzo’s backup singers also joined her as they performed their choreography in their all-pink Yitty activewear.
Moreover, to the surprise of no one, the Juice singer’s impromptu performance caused the Peloton app to crash.

Following Lizzo’s surprise performance, many Peloton users were facing trouble connecting to their classes on Friday.
One user tweeted, ‘Omg, I was wondering wtf just happened to my Peloton and had to come to Twitter to find out. Not even support is answering!.’
Another said, ‘So many people logged in for a @lizzo ride on Peloton that the whole platform crashed. This is the collective strength of women who no longer have time for conventional ideas of fitness and beauty. It’s officially thick thirty!’
Moreover, Peloton responded to the issue of the outage in a tweet saying, ‘We’re so sorry we’re down right now. I know, I can’t wait to take the Lizzo classes, either.’
Although, they did not reveal the real reason behind the app outage.
Peloton also shared a clip of Lizzo with her backup dancers and jokingly messaged, ‘We’re sorry, baby, we broke the internet (with @lizzo) we will let you know as soon as we’re back and the class is on demand.’
Looks like @lizzo surprised a live-in-studio Peloton class in New York this afternoon & when enough people learned she was there, Peloton's system temporarily went down. I'm told everything should be back up and running now & the Lizzo class can be streamed on-demand. $pton
