Demi Lovato just turned one of the internet’s oldest memes about herself into a Halloween costume.
The singer, 33, took to Instagram on Thursday with photos and TikToks of herself dressed as “Poot Lovato,” a decade-old viral meme born from a poorly lit 2015 photo that fans joked showed the “long-lost twin locked in a basement.”
In the new photos, Lovato showed off a recreated look, posting side-by-side photos of the original image and her costume. She also staged a spooky photoshoot in a garage, complete with dramatic shadows and a video of “Poot” screaming for help.
She continued the joke with a TikTok “house tour,” showing Poot’s simple “house,” complete with a water heater, bubble wrap and cleaning supplies.
“Happy Halloween and Happy Intd Week!!! I was so stuck in this era I thought I’d let Pootvato out,” Lovato captioned the post.
Her husband, Jutes, summed it up best in the comments. “Alright, Halloween is over for everyone. Wrap it up. It belongs to Demi this year.”
