Round two for Halloween costumes and there are some really impressive submissions. Kaiser and Quimby have both posted some of my favorites, like Ciara And Russell Wilson’s. But CB and I are truly wowed by Ariana Grande’s take on a Twilight Zone episode about plastic surgery (reference clip here). Ariana updated the look by glamming it up, of course, and she just looks amazing:
Ariana gets bonus points for doing a suspenseful multi-day lead up to her reveal. On the flip-side, Kourtney Kardashian dressed as Ariana with much success:
While Halsey did a great send up to Marilyn Mason:
Normani channeled Naomi Campbell circa 1991- and nailed it:
Nicki Minaj and her husband did their interpretation on Harley Quinn and the Joker:
I think they both look great. Mr. Minaji’s pants are making me giggle, given his dubious aura, but I am all about that red long coat he’s wearing.
Her Majesty Missy Elliott recreated her first album cover from 22 years ago and it seriously looks like mirror images:
Rounding out our musical portion, Tracee Ellis Ross posted a shot of herself as DJ Quick and she killed it not only on costume but attitude as well:
And I know it’s professionally done for her TV show Blackish, but seriously, their Us group costume is amazing:
Riverdale’s Camila Mendes dressed as Sexy (her words!) Rick from Rick & Morty. It’s a great interpretation, I love it:
Grey’s Anatomy’s Camilla Luddington looked shockingly like Casey Becker from Scream:
And Christina Hendrick’s made a great Ginny Weasley from Harry Potter, although I barely recognized her:
They all look amazing. And honorable mention goes to Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson because they were able to work Halloween into their promotion for Jumanji 2, coming out next year. These boys never quit working (plus it’s pretty cute):

I wonder how many times Ariana had to explain her outfit to her fans? I am guessing most of them do not know about Twilight Zone or this particular episode. I do like that she did some sly social commentary with the look
She posted clips from the episode on Instagram a few days beforehand
Eye of The Beholder is one of, if not my favorite episode from The Twilight Zone.
Kudos Ariana.
I thought the evening wear might be a reference to another great episode, ‘The Masks’ (directed by Ida Lupino!)
I’m huge Twilight Zone fan and love her costume! The show remains relevant in many ways, so it’s great to see people in their 20s enjoying it. I’m in my 30s and was born over 20 years after it debuted.
All of these are great.
These are so creative and on the mark. I like Normani as Naomi, she should do Whitney too , shes beautiful. Rock and Hart made me laugh.
I LOL’ ed at Rock and Hart too, they’re cute.
Hiddles dressed up as Daredevil, and Charlie Cox as Loki, for signing autographs after their show. Their co-star Zawe Ashton was Captain Marvel, and Eddie Arnold went as Captain America.
Halsey looks more like Leeloo from The Fifth Element tbh. But I loved all the costumes, especially Ariana’s.
Ariana for the win!
Loveeeeee Ariana’s. Anyone who is a fan of The Twilight Zone gets major bonus points from me!
Love them all! Thanks 🙂
Normai looks fantastic, Missy has not aged a bit and I am going to steal that Casey Becker idea for next year!
Kourtney’s Ariana was actually from last year.
Joker x Harley sums up this couple pretty well. Nicki does look cool as Harley though. Speaking of.. the new Charlie’s Angels song with her, Ari, & Normani isn’t bad.
I feel so uncultured I thought Ariana was some kind of zombie Miss Piggy. 😂
But then again I guess I grew up in a different time/in a house without television.
Ariana wins Halloween for me! SO good!
