Two women are depicted in a bar-like setting. Both women are shown from the waist up. The woman on the left leans against the bar with her body slightly turned toward the camera. She has a bright pink wig, blue lipstick, and dramatic eye makeup. She wears a tight-fitting leopard print top with pink feathered accents on the sleeves and holds a cigarette. The woman on the right stands next to her, slightly turned to face her. She has short black hair and bold makeup, wearing a strapless top made of silver duct tape, black leather pants, and accessorizes with leopard print fabric as a choker and wrist wrap, as well as a large ring. The background features a bar with bottles, and people can be seen sitting and standing. The setting is dimly lit with colorful lights and wall decorations.
