Lizzo...and Linkin Park? Who knows their songs can mesh well together?
Regardless if one is a pop enthusiast or a militant abstainer from the mainstream, it's almost certain one has heard of Lizzo's latest single, "About Damn Time," since, well, it's everywhere. It's on TikTok, on Facebook, on the streets, on the clubs, everywhere!
TikTok users are responding to the popular song with choreographed dances, particularly during the moment the Detroit singer funkily snaps out the lyrics, "In a minute I'ma need a sentimental / Man or woman to pump me up / Feeling fussy, walkin' in my Balenci-ussy's /Tryna bring out the fabulous."
This innate fabulousness may come easy to Lizzo, but has never really been used as an adjective to describe the Linkin Park, but it's possible.
DJ Cummerbund, the internet's favorite mash-up maverick, an artistic visionary who can sew together unexpected partnerships with flawless ease, has mashed up the said pop tune with Hybrid Theory's profoundly melancholy hymn "In The End" by Linkin Park.
Together with" In The End's" clattering percussion and evocative ringing keys (or is it screaming?!), "About Damn Time" is propelled from ferocious to pure fire, and despite being on opposing ends of the musical spectrum, these two songs are a wonderful match.
Or it can only be Cummerbund's magic at work, and making the unthinkable feasible.
The most recent celebrity to join the "About Damn Time" trend in TikTok is Paris Hilton.
The heiress, who usually stays far away from dance crazes, attempted to participate in the TikTok dancing movement.

The prominent socialite, 41, attempted to master Lizzo's "About Damn Time" dance by posting a video of herself mimicking the Grammy-winning artist's tutorial.
In the video, Paris wore a two-piece neon bikini and oversized sunglasses as she imitated Lizzo, 34, who demonstrated the dance step-by-step while wearing a T-shirt and sweatpants. The most important thing Paris learned was that the viral dance is more difficult than it appears.
But she certainly had fun.
Paris joyfully imitated Lizzo's dancing step by step. She began the performance by mimicking Lizzo's clapping and hip shaking. Nonetheless, as the video progressed, she struggled to keep up with the "Juice" singer and laughed throughout her blunders.
During Lizzo's dance lesson, Paris said "I don't know" to the camera and gave up trying to learn the dance. In the final frame of the one-minute film, she threw her hands in the air and ran off-screen. Some of us who love to watch enviously others do these TIkTok trends can relate.
