The Weeknd's recent performances are unlikely to be forgotten, especially if everything happens at the Super Bowl LV Half Time Show! At the most-watched American football event, dressed in red, he was accompanied by a ballerina whose face was not visible as it was bandaged. 

If you’ve been following The Weeknd over the past year, you know that neither bandages nor a bloody face are new to her, but this time the explanation is clearer.

According to the singer, the faded faces are a reflection of the absurd culture of Hollywood.

"Bandaged heads reflect on the absurd culture of Hollywood VIPs and people who manipulate themselves for superficial reasons to feel satisfied and accepted."

As for his face changing from one performance to another, The Weeknd calls it "progress".

"The story of the character reaches a certain level of absurdity and danger as his story continues."
