Lizzo is over the moon about Blizzo.

The Grammy Award-winning singer and rapper was the inspiration for a sixth-grade class at Osseo Middle School to submit Blizzo to the MinDOT name the snowplow contest.

And it was one of the winners.

Lizzo posted a video on Twitter calling it the highest honor she's ever received, and thanked the kids who came up with the name

"I want to shout out Osseo Middle school," she said in the video. "Thank you so much for nominating moi as the recipient of this esteemed honor! I love you Twin Cities!"

Lizzo punctuated her reaction by blowing a kiss.

"Stay freezing!"

Lizzo moved to the Twin Cities in 2011, where she helped form the three-piece all-female rap/R&B group named the Chalice.

Blizzo was second among all submitted names, with a metro-area snowplow getting the monikor.

The top vote getter was the Harry Potter-inspired "Harry, You're a Blizzard" in southwestern Minnesota.
