Lizzo wears Olympic-themed Halloween costume inspired by 'South Park' parody after slamming allegations
Lizzo wore an Olympic-themed Halloween costume while the singer poked fun at an episode of “South Park” that parodied her earlier this year.
On Monday, the 36-year-old took to Instagram to share several posts featuring photos and videos of herself wearing a red and white package of a fictional weight-loss drug called Lizzo with a yellow measuring tape around her waist.
Last month, Lizo, born Melissa Vivienne Jefferson, slammed allegations that her slimmed-down figure was due to the Olympics.
“LizzOzempic dump,” the four-time Grammy Award winner captioned one post.
In her slideshow, Lizzo shared a video of herself holding a prop piece of pizza while standing next to a man dressed as the famous “South Park” character Eric Cartman.

Lizzie's spoof with her “South Park” parody came when an episode of the long-running animated series aired in May, when she advanced the joke about her.
A “South Park” television special titled “The End of Obesity” referred to the singer as an alternative to Ozempic, using the power to “not give a f—.”
“FDA-approved Lizo makes you feel better about your weight, and it costs 90% less than Ozempic,” says a voice-over. “In case studies, 70% of Lizzo patients no longer care about their weight. Lizzo helps you eat whatever you want and keep physical activity to a minimum.”

After the clip, she commented, “It's crazy. I'm like, damn, I'm really that b——. I'm really that b——. I really showed the world how to love myself and this Colorado People want to know who the f— I am and put it in their cartoons for 25 years.
He continued, “I really am that b—- and I show you how not to give a f— and I'm going to show you how not to give a f—.”
In an Instagram post last month, Lizzo shut down speculation that she was taking Ozempic after showing off her dramatic weight loss.

The post was captioned “'oZeMpIc or cokE?' – a fan,” along with a string of teary face emojis. The caption was directed at a social media user who commented on an earlier post shared by Lizzo, which showed a video of her pulling on black leather shorts over a beige bodysuit from the brand Easy.
In her next post, Lizzo included a screenshot of her previous post's comment section, where an Instagram user wrote, “Did she use ozempic or did she snort coke.”
Lizo replied, writing “Why are you following me?”
