Lizzo is manifesting her Broadway dreams. The "About Damn Time" singer took to TikTok on Sunday to belt out a standout hit from "Moulin Rouge! The Musical."

The 34-year-old singer belted out the chorus of "El Tango de Roxanne" from the popular musical, which is based on the 2001 film "Moulin Rouge!"

The track has gone viral on TikTok, with users fawning over Broadway star Aaron Tveit's vocals.

Tveit won a Tony Award in 2020 for playing the musical's male lead, Christian.
