As per usual, the Internet found new meme potential in the baby bag.
It looks like practicality is no longer a priority when it comes to evening wear. Lizzo showed up to the 2019 American Music Awards on Sunday in a stunning orange dress, and what better way to accessorize than with a bag the size a ring pop? The comically-tiny Valentino handbag (or, better yet, pinky-bag) is one only three a kind that exists, according to the artist. When asked what she could possibly be carrying in the Barbie-sized purse, Lizzo jokingly replied, “Oh I’ve got tampons in here, a flask tequila, condoms…” Not too convinced that all that, or even one those items would even fit, but Lizzo’s awareness how ridiculously-sized her accessory (or, as she pronounces it in her and Missy Elliott‘s song, “Tempo,” “accessorary”) is turned the novelty item into a fun bit for everyone.
After photos surfaced on Sunday evening the recently Grammy-nominated singer’s outfit, publications and users alike wasted no time in making memes about the miniature bag.
Though nominated for three awards at the ceremony, including New Artist the Year, the vocalist and flutist didn’t have much luck, but who needs awards when you have the world’s tiniest bag?
