Stephen Colbert thinks Lana del Rey's was wearing plastic underneath her mesh mask

While talking about the insurrectionist mesh mask woman on his talk show, which was inspired by Lana del Rey's mask while at a booking signing in October, Stephen Colbert apparently defends Lana, seemly believing that was a layer of plastic beneath, saying:

"Big difference is that Lana Del Rey's mask had a layer of plastic beneath it whereas pal

Stephen, bb, this ain't the right hill to climb.

Also didn't someone do a deep ass analysis of photos of Lana and she almost definitely did not have a layer of plastic underneath?

If it had a plastic lining, it would be covered with condensation from your breath. I would also think it would be a breathing hazard, you know, same as putting a plastic bag on your head...

why aren't people grasping that basic concept? how tf would they breathe THROUGH PLASTIC?

Sleuth!

I feel like people projected shit onto her because of the way she crafted her image and it just...wasn't accurate. And some sad people are still clinging to it.

I quite like her aesthetic and music and if I never read anything she said I might be a fan.

I mean she claimed that it had a plastic layer sewn in, I don’t think his team was gonna dig into it much further.

Bingo. He didn't defend her, just stated it to make a joke about the first woman.

Isn’t critical thinking part of his job?

[kris_terror]

He’s not a journalist, he’s a late night host.

[hotdoggoz]

Does he think you can breathe through plastic?

[invisiblegirlx]

He's just going by what she said in good faith. It's not like he's approving of the mesh mask.

Perhaps, but, if that were the case, why not just assume this woman's mask also had a thin piece of plastic? They look identical, why give one the benefit of the doubt based on what she said, but just accept that the nutter woman's is something else?
