Lizzo and Ja Rule linked up on the Los Angeles stop of Nelly’s "Where the Party At" Tour.

TMZ Hip Hop obtained a clip of Ja, his wife Aisha, and Lizzo taking shots of his Amber & Opal honey botanical whiskey brand backstage at the Intuit Dome.

Ja launched his honey-infused rye whiskey brand in 2024 alongside several longtime friends.

“Opal is a precious stone that comes in various hues, and that’s what we want Amber & Opal to be about. We want it to be about inclusivity and all-inclusive to everybody," Ja told Food and Wine in March.

Lizzo and Ja also posed for some pictures. “My mother use to always tell me I was special… i believed her!!!” Ja captioned the set of images.

According to the outlet, the 49-year-old performed classics including “Livin’ It Up" and “Mesmerize."

Nelly kicked off his worldwide tour in March to celebrate his debut studio album, 2000’s Country Grammar. Eve, St. Lunatics, Fabolous, Jermaine Dupri, and Chingy also joined the St. Louis rapper on the trek, which went through Australia, Canada, and Europe before hitting the U.S.

The tour continues until mid-September with stops in Phoenix, Houston, Atlanta, and Nashville, Tennessee, before wrapping on Sept. 18 in Birmingham, Alabama.
