I can not let you know what number of occasions I’ve written {that a} celeb “appears unrecognizable” with a brand new haircut or colour. And I can not let you know how a lot I remorse that hyperbole at any time when Halloween rolls round and I actually can not acknowledge some stars once they’re lined in mountains of make-up and wigs. Such is the case with Saweetie, who I may need scrolled proper previous on Instagram with out comprehending that it was her below that critically creepy Joker costume.
The Joker has change into a traditional Halloween costume, virtually becoming a member of the ranks of vampires and depraved witches. And there are such a lot of variations to select from! Joaquin Phoenix’s Arthur Fleck is the Joker du jour, however you may by no means go fallacious with Cesar Romero’s or Jack Nicholson’s iconic interpretation. Nonetheless, my private favourite—and Saweetie’s, it appears—is Heath Ledger’s sensible soak up 2008’s The Darkish Knight.
Saweetie posted to her Instagram grid a number of occasions to share her spot-on tribute to one among Batman’s most infamous nemeses, together with editing herself into an actual scene from the movie. In that, another video, and a carousel of incredible photos, we see that Saweetie’s face is totally lined in white make-up, with messy, smoky black make-up smudged throughout her eyes. The Joker’s signature exaggerated smile is blotted on in crimson make-up that appears like smeared blood, full with stitches.
