Tyrese Haliburton’s NBA All-Star Game outfit made fans think he looked like Cookie Monster

Tyrese Haliburton genuinely looked like he stole this look from Cookie Monster.

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton was one of the biggest stars of the NBA’s All-Star Weekend in Indiana.

Haliburton, who impressed some folks with his performance in the 3-point contest and skills competition on Saturday night, has had a very memorable few days in Indianapolis.

When he arrived for the actual All-Star Game on Sunday, however, he made a bold fashion decision that caused some waves. (Note: This is not the first time that his outfits have made waves of late.)

The 23-year-old shared a heartwarming moment with a fan when he arrived.

Haliburton was wearing a nice suit and tie but fans couldn’t ignore the blue fabric on his blazer and pants that resembled the “fur” associated with Cookie Monster from Sesame Street:

Lizzo played a cookie flute for Elmo on Sesame Street before Cookie Monster ate it

Do not let the Cookie Monster near a cookie flute. It will not go well.

While Sesame Street has always come through for outrageously great celebrity cameos, this recent appearance by music sensation Lizzo might take the (cookie) cake for 2023.

In a segment posted on Twitter, Lizzo and Elmo admire a flute made of chocolate chip cookie. It’s both an homage to Lizzo’s famous ability to play the flute, and, y’know, the Cookie Monster would probably eat it.

As you could guess, the blue monster enters frame soon after and devours Lizzo’s cookie flute after the latter gets in a little playing time. On Sesame Street, you can play a cookie flute, and no one will ask questions.

What Cookie Monster does after consuming the cookie flute is actually pretty impressive, even for Sesame Street standards.

Look, we’re not saying that you’ll be able to play your torso like a flute if you consume a cookie flute, but we’re not saying you can’t, either. Clearly the Cookie Monster could. Set your goals high!

Lizzo is having a fantastic 2023 so far, and this Sesame Street appearance has to be near the top of the list.
