Liam Payne can add “Botticelli Babe” to his long list of accomplishments.
On Tuesday (February 4), the One Direction star shared a photo of himself on a tropical vacation. Standing in a pool, Payne gazes up at the sun as he strategically places two orange seashells over his bare chest to create a makeshift seashell bikini.
A few hours after the post, Lady Gaga, who clearly liked the way Payne rocked a seashell bra, took to Twitter to give him her seal of approval.
Gaga knows a thing or two about what it takes to pull off the seashell look. She famously donned the bikini in her “Applause” video, where she became a “Botticelli Babe” recreating Botticelli’s “The Birth of Venus”. She later sported the shells during her 2013 Video Music Awards performance, where she met up with 1D backstage.
