Lizzo’s Wild Tree-Inspired Met Gala Dress Leaves Social Media Users Split

by

The 2024 Met Gala brought about countless head-turning celebrity looks, but not all of them were well-received by fans. This year’s theme was “The Garden of Time,” a 1962 short story by J.G. Ballard. Of course, the carpet was flooded with florals, though some stars opted for a less obvious approach. Lizzo, for example, went as a tree.

The “Juice” performer stunned in a nude gown by Paris-based label Weinsanto, complete with leaf-like pops of pink, purple, and gold. Her look also featured a bold headpiece, which is arguably the most controversial element of the look. Its unique silhouette is also a hot topic of debate, as it seemed to have made her journey across the carpet noticeably difficult.

Lizzo’s 2024 Met Gala Look

While some social media users are now comparing Lizzo to Groot, others think her headpiece more closely resembled a cone that a dog would wear home from the vet. Many are also likening the look to a lampshade, a basketball hoop, a used coffee filter, and more. Luckily, not everyone has something negative to say about the eye-catching gown. Several supporters are showing love to the “Good As Hell” artist for the fun fit, and arguing that it was perfectly on-theme.

Lizzo took to social media last night to share some photos from the evening, showing off the awe-inspiring dress and accompanying headpiece. “IF IM NOT IN UR BEST DRESSED UR FATPHOBIC,” she joked in her caption. “Girl, this was not it. I love you though,” one fan commented. “I actually really love this!” another wrote. “And would love to know the story behind the look.”

Last night’s Met Gala festivities served up some truly classic, head-turning, head-scratching, eyebrow-raising ensembles that will surely be remembered among some of the events most creative. Doja Cat took an interesting angle on the flowers theme, while Usher’s dramatic look inspired comparisons to all kinds of pop culture superheroes. Another star whose outfit generated a ton of buzz on social media was Lizzo, whose form-fitting brown dress and accompanying headdress had many users making arboreal observations, including “I Am Groot.”

The star recently drew plenty of social media attention after posting about being “tired of putting up with being dragged by everyone in my life and on the internet,” leading some to speculate that she was announcing her departure from the music business. However, she later clarified her statement in another post, “When I say I quit, I mean quit giving any negative energy attention. What I’m not gonna quit is the joy of my life, which is making music.”

Her comments may have been spurred by having to deal with an ongoing lawsuit from some of her former dancers, who alleged that she created a hostile work environment. She has since requested a dismissal from the suit, as many of the complaints lodged within it pertain to Lizzo’s dance team captain, Shirlene Quigley, whom the plaintiffs say made inappropriate sexual comments.
