Lizzo has taken a rather silly reference to her on a recent âSouth Parkâ episode and elevated it to a hilarious Halloween costume.
The Grammy-winning singer shared a series of new posts to her on Saturday showing her outfit, which consisted of a faux drug box brandishing her name along with some fine-print warnings including âFDA approved,â âDiet suppressor,â and âFor single patient use only.â
Instead of a belt, Lizzo wore a measuring tape that cinched the box dress at her waist.
In her first picture, Lizzo posed in an old-school-style print ad that asked, âNeed self love? Try Lizzo! Lose guilt, gain self confidence.â Her caption for the post read, âOk Halloween⌠you can start now.â
Subsequent posts included a showing Lizzo dancing in her costume in front of a cutout of âSouth Parkâ character Cartman, as audio from the showâs Ozempic episode played.
The May episode, titled âSouth Park: The End of Obesity,â satirized the increasing popularity of weight-loss drugs like and Mounjaro, and included a spoof ad for a fake product named âLizzo.â
In a scene from the show, âSouth Parkâ characters Sharon and Sheila discuss the âamazingâ new drugs that Sharon has been taking to manage her weight, but since her insurance only covers weight loss drugs for those with diabetes, Sharon reveals, âThereâs a whole new obesity drug for those of us who canât afford Ozempic and Mounjaro.â
The scene then transitions to a fake commercial advertising âLizzo,â a drug that âmakes you feel good about your weight, and it costs 90% less than Ozempic.â
âIn case studies, 70 per cent of patients on Lizzo no longer cared how much they weighed,â the fake commercialâs narrator says.
âLizzo helps you eat everything you want and keep physical activity to a minimum⌠Ask about the power of not giving a f**k, with Lizzo,â the commercial adds, along with a series of side effects.
In her live reaction video on Instagram and TikTok at the time, Lizzo said, âThatâs crazy, I just feel like damn, Iâm really that b*tch.â
âI 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 thatâs been around for 25 years,â she added, referring to âSouth Parkâ creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, who met at the University of Colorado Boulder and set the show in the state.
Lizzo has long advocated for body positivity and spoken out about the body shaming she faces on social media.
