Anime Hippo Idol on Theater Stage

An adorable anthropomorphic hippo in vibrant anime style performing on a grand theater stage. The hippo stands upright in a sleek, tailored tuxedo with a shiny bow tie, one hoof gripping a microphone stand while the other is raised in a dramatic pose. The theater features ornate red velvet curtains drawn open, a gilded proscenium arch, warm stage lights, glittering chandeliers, and a polished wooden floor. A blurred, cheering audience sits in plush seats in the foreground. The hippo has large, expressive anime eyes, rosy cheeks, and a lively, dynamic expression. Add musical notes and sparkles around the stage, subtle motion lines to convey singing, and a soft spotlight halo. Use soft cel-shaded coloring with gradients, luminous fur highlights, and a rich palette of golds, reds, and deep blues to create a whimsical, cinematic atmosphere.
