Lizzo dedicated "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" to Black trans women at OUTLOUD Music Festival at WeHo Pride 2025.
During her performance at WeHo Pride ‘s OUTLOUD Music Festival on Saturday, the hitmaker dedicated a soulful cover of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” to some of society’s most vulnerable members before penning a heartfelt message on Instagram. The video finds the musician wearing a sparkly red coat, a cut-off Yitty T-shirt and denim shorts, her long hair blowing in the wind.
