Ezra Miller’s Eye-Popping 2019 Met Gala Makeup Took Over 5 Hours [PHOTOS]

All eyes were on Ezra Miller at the 2019 Met Gala on Monday.

The Fantastic Beasts star stunned viewers with a surrealist makeup look that made it appear as if he had two sets of eyes and another three on his forehead.

Wearing a custom pinstriped Burberry suit and a rhinestone corset, Miller also carried a handheld mask, used to cover — and then reveal — his trippy optical illusion look.

He took the dramatic makeup moment even further with a bold red lip and an Old Hollywood-esque wig.

The look was a perfect embodiment of Miller’s original vision, said makeup artist Mimi Choi, who worked with the nonbinary actor to execute it.

“Ezra interpreted the theme ‘camp’ as being the transformations that we as individuals experience throughout our lives,” Choi said. “The depth and layers of a person were represented by the multiple eyes.”

Choi, who has one million followers on Instagram, said she started working on Miller at 4 a.m. on Monday and the whole process took about five and a half hours.

“Many of my signature looks include the painting of realistic eyes, so I’ve had a lot of practice,” she explained.

But the most important element, she noted, were the lashes. “I prefer to use false lashes as they provide shadows and are visible from all angles,” she said.

Choi admitted that while Miller loved the makeup, it took a few seconds for the actor to adjust. “Ezra’s initial reaction was like most others’ when they see it for the first time … [it had] a dizzying effect.”
