Lizzo [2]'s "Truth Hurts" is the gift that keeps on giving! On Friday, savvy Instagram user (and self-proclaimed "Lizzbian" [3]) Brendan Carey [4] shared a hilarious video of the No. 1 Billboard song [5] set to an iconic scene in Disney's 1970 film The Aristocats [6]. The clip shows cat siblings Berlioz and Marie practicing their singing and piano playing while Lizzo [7] begins to belt, "Why men great 'til they gotta be great?" And it's amazing how well the song goes with the scene. The original version — which features the tune "Scales & Arpeggios" — is pretty freakin' adorable [8], but this Lizzo remix takes it to another level.

One viewer who came across Brendan's masterpiece posted it on Twitter [9], which caught Lizzo's attention. The singer retweeted the video with an understandably excited reaction [10]. "OOOOOHHHHHHH MY GOD," she wrote.

"Truth Hurts" originally came out in 2017, but its feature in this year's Netflix film Someone Great [11] helped it skyrocket on the charts. Since then, Lizzo has masterfully performed [12] it at award shows and music festivals [13]. The bop has also inspired some out-of-this-world dance routines [14] and hysterical parodies [15]. The truth might hurt, but this song sure doesn't.
