The Weeknd – The Nutty Professor

The Weeknd’s 2020 Halloween costume as Sherman Klump from “The Nutty Professor” was a triumph of playful impersonation. He wasn’t just dressed as the professor; he embodied the character. We can only imagine the time and attention to detail it took to track down an accurate checkered blazer, a voluminous afro wig, and the signature spectacles. But it wasn’t just about the clothes.

The Weeknd truly captured Klump’s essence with the addition of a fake mustache and the pièce de résistance—a beaker filled with a mysterious green liquid. This final touch was a clever nod to Klump’s profession as a genetics professor, constantly tinkering with concoctions in his lab.
