Lizzo Shares Ozempic Halloween Costume Inspired By ‘South Park’
Lizzo has officially started her 2024 Halloween after sharing a creative new costume.
The hip-hop star took to Instagram to showcase her self-described “LizzOzempic” outfit, inspired by a recent episode of South Park.
“Ok Halloween… you can start now,” Lizzo captioned a faux advertisement featuring herself inside a mock prescription box for the appetite suppressant drug Ozempic.
Back in May, the animated Comedy Central series aired an episode titled “The End of Obesity,” which poked fun at the Ozempic trend, using Lizzo as an alternative to the popular medication. In the episode, Eric Cartman visits his doctor seeking Ozempic for weight loss. When he learns he can’t afford it, the doctor prescribes an unconventional solution: “I’m going to write you a prescription for Lizzo. She’s a really good singer who talks about body positivity,” he says. “I want you to listen to Lizzo five times a day and watch her videos before bed. I’m afraid you’ll have to be on Lizzo for the rest of your life.”
In one of her posts showing off the Halloween getup, Lizzo is seen dancing to South Park‘s jingle from the episode and flipping off the camera. “Oh OH oh… it’s Lizzo b—,” she captioned the clip, which also included a cut out of Cartman in the background.
The “About Damn Time” singer also shared a clip of herself dancing next to someone wearing an inflatable Cartman costume. “It’s that time of year where I feed y’all so ridiculously, and you’re so very welcome, baby,” she captioned the video.
When the South Park episode originally aired, Lizzo reacted on TikTok, expressing her surprise. “That’s crazy. I just feel like, damn, I’m really that b—-,” she said. “I showed the world how to love yourself, and now these men in Colorado know who the f— I am and put it in their cartoon that’s been around for 25 years.”
Lizzo has been known for her unique Halloween costumes over the years, sporting outfits based on Tina Turner, Marge Simpson, and Baby Yoda, among others.
