The Weeknd is finally peeling back the layers on his bandaged-face character from the After Hours era. He explained the bandages in between rehearsals for his upcoming headlining gig at the 2021 Pepsi Super Bowl LV Halftime Show. He said the significance is reflecting on the absurd culture of Hollywood celebrity and people manipulating themselves for superficial reasons to please and be validated. It’s all a progression and we watch The Character’s storyline hit heightened levels of danger and absurdity as his tale goes on. I supposed you could take that being attractive isn’t important to me but a compelling narrative is. The Weeknd has pulled off a yearlong facial transformation to go along with the album in his music videos and he’s gone all out for live performances and awards shows too. We’re expecting the same for the halftime show.
