I can not let you know what number of instances I’ve written {that a} superstar “appears to be like unrecognizable” with a brand new haircut or coloration. And I can not let you know how a lot I remorse that hyperbole every time Halloween rolls round and I actually can not acknowledge some stars after they’re coated 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 beneath that significantly creepy Joker costume.
The Joker has grow to be 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 flawed with Cesar Romero’s or Jack Nicholson’s iconic interpretation. Nevertheless, 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 instances to share her spot-on tribute to one in all Batman’s most infamous nemeses, together with modifying herself into an precise scene from the film. In that, one other video, and a carousel of unimaginable pictures, we see that Saweetie’s face is totally coated in white make-up, with messy, smoky black make-up smudged throughout her eyes. The Joker’s signature exaggerated smile is blotted on in purple make-up that appears like smeared blood, full with stitches.
