Mario Lopez Shows the Power of 'Makeup Magic' After Getting a Black Eye During Jiujitsu: Photos
Mario Lopez made his black eye disappear!
On Tuesday, December 5, the famous host revealed how his recent injury didn’t stop him from a TV appearance.
The star uploaded a series of photos showing off the shiner, while also including images of himself after makeup, which completely covered up the swollen discolored skin.
“Eye was busted this morning but a little makeup magic & just like that…We’re back on TV! #Jiujitsu #LumpedUp,” he wrote, alluding that the injury occurred while practicing jiujitsu, a self-defense martial art and combat sport.
In response, fans showed their support for the actor and were shocked by how well the transformation turned out.
“Mariooo not the face 😢that’s money right there 😮,” one person penned, while a second added, “This makeup work deserves an Emmy!”
A third user referenced a famous fight scene from Lopez’s role as A.C. Slater on Saved by the Bell, asking, “You and Zack still fighting over Kelly?”
“Well, you should have seen the other guy he ain't in the picture,” a fourth person joked.
As OK! previously reported, Lopez recently shared an image from his appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, where he couldn’t help but compliment the talk show’s host, Kelly Clarkson.
On November 30, the Access Hollywood star wrote, "NYC looks great on my girl @KellyClarkson!" referencing the American Idol alum’s recent move and relocation of her studio to the Big Apple.

"Y'all look amazing!! 😍😍," one supporter said, as a second noted, "Kelly looks fantastic. Can't wait to see this show. Mario here, Mario there, Mario everywhere. 😂🤣❤️."
