Lizzo, known for her powerful voice and advocacy for body positivity, recently turned a humorous reference from a popular TV show into a dazzling Halloween costume. Inspired by a recent episode of “South Park” that satirized weight-loss drugs, Lizzo transformed herself into a walking, talking embodiment of the fictional drug “Lizzo.”
The Grammy-winning singer took to Instagram on Saturday, sharing a series of photos and videos showcasing her creative costume. In one photo, she posed in an old-school print ad style, declaring, “Need self-love? Try Lizzo! Lose guilt, gain self-confidence.” The caption for the post read, “Ok Halloween… you can start now.”
In another post, Lizzo shared a video snippet dancing in front of a cutout of “South Park” character Cartman, with audio from the show’s Ozempic episode playing in the background. The episode, titled “South Park: The End of Obesity,” poked fun at the rising popularity of weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro, featuring a fake commercial for a drug named “Lizzo” that promised users to “feel good about their weight, and it costs 90% less than Ozempic.”
Lizzo’s reaction to the episode, shared on Instagram and TikTok, captured her amusement and pride. “That’s crazy, I just feel like damn, I’m really that b*tch,” she exclaimed. Referring to the creators, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, she added, “I really showed the world how to love yourself and not give a f**k, to the point where these men in Colorado know who the f**k I am, and put it on their cartoon that’s been around for 25 years.”
Lizzo’s Halloween costume serves as a powerful reminder of her unwavering commitment to body positivity. Throughout her career, she has consistently challenged societal beauty standards and encouraged self-love, making her a role model for millions.
