Lizzo just dropped her newest music for her song “Special” on February 1 — a glorious start to Black History Month, if you ask us — where she turns into a badass superhero with lengthy flowing waves, vibrant purple eye makeup, and very long nails. The pop star gave her TikTok fans a peek of her superhero form about five minutes before dropping the video. In the TikTok, she twirls around in a navy blue onesie (we have a strong feeling that it’s by designer Yitty) until she becomes her superhuman form for only a few seconds.
Thankfully, we get to see more of Lizzo the superhero in her “Special” music video. She stars as a waitress named Melly (a nod to Lizzo’s legal name, Melissa), who leads a secret double life as a superhero named Lizzo. Unfortunately, in this universe, Melly nor Lizzo are beloved by the general public. Despite that, Lizzo does still have a few fans including a little Black girl with curly hair who adores the superhero — but I won’t spoil too many details because we’re just here for the gorgeous waves and purple ensemble.
Melly in her everyday life wears a messy updo with wispy curtain bangs, but when she becomes Lizzo the superhero, her undone hairstyle turns into deep waves that flow towards her behind. You know we couldn’t forget those baby hairs, swirled and swooped with precision. There was one loop in the centre of her forehead that almost looks like the number 6.
Her super cute purple glittery eye mask protects her identity and (unfortunately for us) covers up some of her stunning eye makeup. But at certain moments you can still catch the purple and pink shadows that were blended onto her lids, and she definitely has a set of bomb falsies. She paired the look with a nude-brown matte lipstick. We wish we could see her nails closer-up, but at the very least we can tell they are long and covered in a deep purple hue.
In real life, Lizzo somehow always manages to raise the bar with the looks in her music videos. This video feels like an extra treat because we get to see a fat Black woman as a superhero on our screens, even if it is only for just three minutes. She truly is special (har har har) in every single way, and you can enjoy the greatness of Lizzo the superhero below.
