Lizzo continues to bring the tunes and the looks for her ongoing run of The Special Tour, which recently kicked off its third leg in North America.

The singer took the second of the leg's shows to Lexington, Kentucky on Saturday night, leaving audiences entranced with a combination of songs from her fourth studio album, Special.

She shared a moment from the show on her Instagram which showed her getting overcome by emotion as she thanked the crowd for being there to support her that night.

Lizzo wore a breathtaking ensemble that would surely leave those in the front row blinded, a gorgeous gold cowl neck gown.

The sequined number shone bright in the stage lights and to top it off, the Good As Hell singer paired it with a matching beret and sparkly blue eyeshadow.

Ending with a powerful belt while singing the album's title track, the 34-year-old had the crowd on its feet, waving their arms to her song as she once again thanked them for their continued love, taking breaks to compose herself as her backup singers continued to come through.

"Thank you for letting me sing my heart to you Lexington. I needed that," she captioned her Instagram post, which was received warmly by fans.

"Thank you for being so vulnerable with us," one commented, while another wrote: "Thank you so much for this show. It shifted something in me," and Tamar Braxton simply said: "Amazing," with a flame emoji.

The show came right after an impactful performance that she delivered in Knoxville, Tennessee to kick off the North American leg.

Lizzo showed her support for the LGBTQ+ community in the state – one that has seen several recent controversial legislations banning the rights of drag performers and trans people – by bringing several drag queens to the stage.

"THANK YOU TO THESE BEAUTIFUL DRAG QUEENS FOR SHOWING THEIR PRIDE IN TENNESSEE," she wrote alongside a video featuring several of them, a mix of local queens and alums from RuPaul's Drag Race.
