Things between Lizzo and Chris Evans just keep heating up, and Captain America is along for the ride.

Lizzo took to TikTok last week to address some rumors, one of which being that she was pregnant, which fans immediately joked about being a product of her fake relationship with Chris Evans. After posting that, it didn’t take long for word to make it to the actor, which is when Lizzo shared Evans’ response to her “confirming” their pregnancy in another clip, calling the non-existent baby “Little America.”

“This is something that I’ve been really trying to keep personal and private between me and the father of my child, but since we’re airing out all the rumors today, I’ve been sucking in. We’re gonna have a little America,” Lizzo said over the theme for Captain America: The First Avenger.

That’s when Lizzo posted a screenshot of Evans’ message about the video, which read, “Hi! Just heard about our little bundle of joy my mother will be so happy lol.”

“OMG YALL— HE SAW THE BABY BUMP! WE DID IT!” she wrote in her caption. “NOW YALL GOTTA NAME LIL MERICA!!!!! WHAT YALL BOUTA NAME MY BABY ?! 🤰🏾🇺🇸”

 It’s hilarious to see  both Chris and Lizzo be such good sports about being paired up by fans consistently, even though their relationship is clearly that of just friends.

This comes after TikToks from the “Good As Hell” singer back in April, where she revealed that she slid into Captain America’s DMs on Instagram while under the influence, captioning the video, “Don’t drink and DM, kids…for legal porpoises this is a joke.”

In that first video, Lizzo lip-synced audio by Tatayanna Mitchell, which says, “The reason I’m upset about this one is because I know I’m not gonna be able to marry him, and honestly, it hurts me to the core…Because damn papa, he a rare breed, no comparing. Like, Chris….”

Once she posted that, fans continually asked for an update on the situation until Lizzo finally delivered, giving us a peek at their initial, flirty exchange.

In her DM, she simply sent a few emojis to signify her shooting her shot–and luckily for the star (and all of us nosey people out there) Mr. Evans did end up responding, which led to a full-blown conversation between the pair.

Now, even though they don’t really have a baby on the way, it does look like the two of them have built a good friendship along  the way.

This week in politics, the vibes are messy, alarming, and straight-up confusing. From late night TV being snatched off the air to vaccine policies getting hijacked, it’s giving “WTF is going on?” Let’s break down the headlines everyone’s talking about inside. First Amendment on the Chopping Block Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show has been pulled from ABC, and Stephen Colbert’s show? Cancelled completely. The official line is murky, but the bigger picture is loud. Free speech is being tested under the Trump administration. While Trump once said he’d “honor” the First Amendment, recent moves suggest he’s working off a remix version that only benefits him. Case in point? The Guardian reports his $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times. A judge already tossed it out, saying Trump’s claims about “false content” violated federal rules. Still, the fact that these lawsuits and cancellations keep happening has people questioning the future of free expression in America. CDC Shake-Up Sparks Health Concerns Meanwhile, over at the CDC, things are getting political fast. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has basically turned the agency upside down, firing all 17 members of the vaccine advisory committee and replacing them with appointees that include vaccine skeptics. On top of that, the CDC director is out, high-level staffers are resigning, and decisions about vaccine safety are suddenly more about politics than science. Public health leaders are calling this move dangerous, saying it dismantles independent oversight just when Americans need clarity most. According to California’s government website, they are one of the few states pushing back on the federal government’s stance. California, Washington, and Hawaii aren’t taking it lying down. The states have formed an alliance pushing back on the feds, promising to keep vaccine guidance rooted in science, safety, and transparency. Their health officers are reviewing guidelines from trusted medical groups like the AAP and ACOG to ensure communities still have access to clinically recommended vaccines. Trump & Xi Meet About US TikTok’s Next Chapter And then there’s TikTok. After years of “will they, won’t they?” drama, Trump announced that he and Chinese Premier Xi Jinping approved a deal for TikTok’s U.S. operations. According to BBC, the plan reportedly hands control to a group of U.S. investors, sidestepping a shutdown. Trump called the call with Xi “productive” on Truth Social, and even, teased a face-to-face meetup at the APEC summit in South Korea this fall. From free speech battles to vaccine wars and TikTok drama, this week in politics has us all asking the same thing: WTFGO?
