Lizzo's Fans Are Dream Casting Her As Live-Action Ursula!
Lizzo shines in a bright purple outfit while performing during day four of the 2019 Glastonbury Festival on Saturday (June 29) in Glastonbury, England.
The 31-year-old singer’s career has skyrocketed in the past year and now fans are campaigning for her to be cast as Ursula in the upcoming live-action remake of Disney’s The Little Mermaid.
It was already announced that Melissa McCarthy is in talks for the role, but now fans on social media are expressing their desire for Lizzo to play the iconic villain.
Lizzo reacted to the Melissa news with a “pleading face” emoji and then retweeted a video of her in costume as Ursula while singing “Poor Unfortunate Souls.” Watch the clip below!
