Lizzo just reminded us all why she’s THAT girl, stepping onto the Vanity Fair Oscar Party red carpet looking like a certified work of art—and no, we’re not talking about the paintings inside the venue. The 36-year-old “Love in Real Life” songstress showed off her snatched waist, radiant confidence, and boyfriend Myke Wright, who was basically there for moral support and to bask in her glory.
The party, held at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts (aka, a place where very important Hollywood things happen), was graced by Lizzo’s presence on Sunday night (March 2), and she did not come to play. She came to serve.
The Dress That Deserves Its Own Standing Ovation
Lizzo arrived in a fitted black Atelier Versace dress that could only be described as “the moment.” The gown featured a sheer skirt, a bodice that looked like it was crafted by the hands of Greek gods, and just the right amount of drama. The way that dress hugged her curves? Michelangelo himself would shed a tear.
And then there was Myke Wright, standing beside her in a brown suit with a black turtleneck—because what else do you wear when your girlfriend is shutting down the red carpet? His outfit said, “I know I look good, but let’s be honest, you’re here for Lizzo.”
A Rare Public Sighting of the Couple
This red carpet moment was a big deal, considering the last time Lizzo and Myke posed together was back in February 2023 at the BRIT Awards. Since then, they’ve mastered the art of avoiding public photo ops—even at the Met Gala, where they attended but did NOT pose together. (Was it a test? Were they playing hide-and-seek? We may never know.)
But on this fateful Oscars night, they finally blessed us with a joint appearance, and we are forever grateful.
Now, let’s all take a moment to appreciate Lizzo’s cinched waist, unmatched confidence, and the fact that Myke Wright was just happy to be there.
