Liv Morgan has an electric personality, one that comes out whenever she gets the chance to show it on television (which isn’t often enough). Where she really shines is on her social media channels (where she’s free to express herself creatively). One theme there, is her repeatedly pushing the fact that her tongue is often blue when she’s on TV. Fans have taken to emulating it. It’s a thing.
But why?
WWE decided to take advantage of that question on its own social media, posting an answer to it from the woman herself on YouTube:
“So everyone has been asking me ‘Liv, how do you get your tongue so blue?’ or ‘Liv, why is your tongue blue?’ And I see you guys posting on social media so I thought I’d let you in on my little secret: I like candy and the color blue.
”I’ve been doing the blue tongue since I’ve been on Raw. Really, what had happened was I was backstage and I kind of just wanted a piece of candy. So I found a jolly rancher and I popped it in my mouth. I’m like, going backstage, I’m getting ready for my match, I’m getting all pumped; and then I look in the mirror and I see my tongue’s blue. And I was like ‘oh, well, that’s weird.’ But I was like ‘I don’t know, it’s kind of cool, let me just go out there.’ So I go out there and I fully expect coming to the back and them being like ‘Liv, what’s wrong with you, why is your tongue blue?’ But no one said anything. So I was like ‘okay, I’ll just keep doing it until they say no.’ But they haven’t said no, so I just keep doing it.”
