Australia is Rapsa (2025)on fire.
At least 25 people have died as a result of the ongoing bushfire crisis, and around 2,000 homes have been destroyed across multiple states.
Celebrities from Chris Hemsworth to Kylie Minogue have been rallying to donate money to support firefighters and relief workers tackling the blaze. Now, pop monarch Lizzo, who is currently on tour in Australia, has personally volunteered at Foodbank in Melbourne, Victoria, packing food hampers in the warehouse for people displaced by the bushfires.
Victoria and New South Wales are currently the worst affected states. Officials said fires in NSW had claimed 1,588 homes and damaged an additional 653. In Victoria, 3.5 percent of the state has been burned, with 200 homes destroyed, and last week, authorities in the state sent 250,000 texts to people in bushfire-affected areas asking them evacuate.
Per an Instagram post by Foodbank Australia, Lizzo thanked volunteer staff at the warehouse who've been "working tirelessly for the past six days."
"What a ⭐️ she even packed hampers for fire-affected regions. Thank you for the support 🙌🏼," the post continued.

While performing at the Sydney Opera House on Monday, Lizzo asked the audience to tell her how she could help with the crisis. She also set up buckets at the venue for audience members to donate.

We always knew Lizzo was good as hell.
Foodbank Victoria has launched an appeal for donations so they can continue to provide displaced people with food and water.
"We need your support to continue delivering emergency food relief and water to Victorians affected by this devastating bushfire crisis," reads a post on the Foodbank website.

Every little bit helps, as the bushfire crisis isn't over — not by a long shot. According to the Australian Government's Bureau of Meteorology, climate change is "influencing the frequency and severity of dangerous bushfire conditions in Australia and other regions of the world, including through influencing temperature, environmental moisture, weather patterns and fuel conditions."
And unfortunately, Australia won't escape its vicious fire spiral anytime soon.
