The Weeknd’s Halftime Show Light Set Has Become a Hilarious Meme

At the Super Bowl LV Halftime Show, The Weeknd performed an energetic medley featuring his biggest hits. The internet is buzzing about the Grammy-winning singer's unconventional set choice, which has already generated a hilarious new meme.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, The Weeknd altered his performance to practice social distancing. Instead of performing in the middle of the field surrounded by by fans, he sang from atop (and inside) an elaborately constructed set piece.

The Weeknd, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye, began the show in a sparkling red blazer on a brightly lit stage. After a few songs, he brought the show inside a dazzling hall of mirrors, holding a camera right in front of his face. As he rounded the corner into the reflective room, Tesfaye appeared disoriented and lost. Eventually, he found his footing, but his momentary look of confusion has gone viral.

Not long after his performance, several Twitter users began pairing the clip of The Weeknd navigating the mirrored corridor with witty observations about everyday life. Let's face it — 2021 has already been a baffling year, and The Weeknd's puzzled face is relatable to all of us.

Here are the funniest memes from The Weeknd's 2021 Half Time Show performance.
