Lizzo’s Halloween inspiration from South Park
Lizzo’s Ozempic outfit featured a fake drug box adorned with her name and fine-print labels such as โFDA approved,โ โDiet suppressor,โ and โFor single patient use only.โ Instead of a traditional belt, she cinched the box dress at her waist with a measuring tape.
In the first picture, she went for the old-school print advertisement mould where she asked โNeed self-love? Try Lizzo! Lose guilt, gain self-confidenceโ. The following video showed her doing a little dance with the cutout of Cartman, a character in South Park while the audio from the ozemoic episode played in the background. She captioned the post, โOk Halloweenโฆ you can start now.โ
The Ozempic episode of South Park titled South Park: The End of Obesity was a satire on the increasing popularity of weight-losing drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro. The same episode included a spoof ad of a product called Lizzo.
In her live reaction video on Instagram and TikTok, Lizzo expressed her thoughts about the episode as she said, โThatโs crazy, I just feel like damn, Iโm really that b*tch,โ as reported by CNN. She continued, โI 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 thatโs been around for 25 years,โ as reported by CNN.
