Lizzo Trolled Mike Pence With Hilarious Halloween Costume, and Social Media Lost It
11/02/2020 07:48 am EST
For those who missed out on the reference Lizzo made, her costume was inspired by the viral moment that took off when a fly landed on Pence's head during the vice presidential debate with Sen. Kamala Harris. In the middle of one of the segments, a fly was seen landing on Pence's head and remained there for a few minutes, enough time to create a lasting moment.
The moment quickly led to social media erupting into an uproar. It also led to Democratic nominee and former Vice President, Joe Biden, capitalizing on the material.
Biden and his team ended up creating their own fly swatters to sell on Biden's official website shop. The swatters were a hit and quickly sold out after the candidate tweeted out the link.
As the fly gained attention, Twitter users were pleased to see a user create a special account for the insect. The account gained thousands of followers within minutes during the debate.
In dressing up as a fly, Lizzo's followers showed their love for her creative choice. One commenter wrote, "Lizzo is who I aspire to be when I'm older."
This isn't the first time Lizzo has gotten involved with politics. During the Democratic convention, she urged the party to decide cohesively on a candidate and "end this nightmare" and vote Trump out of office.
The election is just two days away as the votes will be counted on Nov. 3. Early polls suggest that Biden has a slight advantage going into Tuesday but all signs point to the race being close throughout.
