Beauty Break: Stars in Halloween Costumes

by Nathaniel R

Octavia Spencer announced on Halloween that she'd be dressing up as an actor "instead of a cat with boobs."That's a perfect nonsense funny to make while sharing a photoshopped portrait of yourself, don'cha think?! But the girls who won Halloween on the internet were these three adorables in this widely circulated photo of Hidden Figures costumes. Little mini Tarajis, Octavias, and Janelles, yaaas. 

Some celebrities actually did dress up for the holiday -- and not for an acting job --  this holiday so we're sharing the pics we could find. Patricia Clarkson, Zoe Kravitz, Samuel L Jackson, Busy Phillips, Kristen Bell and many more after the jump...

 

No one is listening to my songs. #hedwigandtheangryinch

Busy Phillips as Hedwig

Patricia Clarkson as Glinda the Good Witch

 

3rd rule of fight club.

A post shared by Zoë Kravitz (@zoeisabellakravitz) on Oct 28, 2017 at 7:22pm PDT

 

Zoe Kravitz and Karl Gusman doing Helena & Brad from Fight Club  -- they look soooo crazysexycool. This is our new favorite celebrity couples costume

 

 

Ben Platt and Molly Gordon as rejects from The Deuce 

Demi Lovato doing Selena... and rather convincingly. Will JLo be pleased?

 

When your daughter demands you BOTH be ELSA for Halloween...you GRIN AND FORKING BEAR IT. #halloween

Kristen Bell actually went as Elsa from Frozen  which must have felt like a betrayal Haha

Ariel Winter (from Modern Family) doing Leeloo from The Fifth Element

 

 

Will Poulter, being a good sport, went as the awful animated character he's often been compared to!

Singer Jhene Aiko went as Dorothy Dandridge (!) and Samuel L Jackson as a cardinal

Kelly Sawyer and a pregnant Jessica Alba went as Paulie and Juno from Juno

Bette Midler did a Marie Antoinette or thereabouts, but greener.

 

 

Gabrielle Union even did Milli Vanilli choreography

Bruce Willis and his assistant (?) were the twins from The Shining 

 

 

Celebrity-adjacent but quite fun / branded. Ivan Kingz who does social media for Missy Eliott went as, uh, Missy Elliott!

Jack Falahee (How to Get Away With Murder) as Eleven from Stranger Things

Happy Halloween! As if! Fun surprises on @spikelsb in the New Year. So lovely meeting you @chrissyteigen and your precious baby!

A post shared by Alicia Silverstone (@aliciasilverstone) on

Alicia Silverstone reprised Cher from Clueless. OMG

Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake did Toy Story  with their kid


Colton Haynes and his husband were Marge Simpson and Top Gun

and another non-matching couples costume...

everyone's favorite May/December couple Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor went not in a couples costume but as a panda and a joker card? er... okay!

We hope y'all had a great Halloween!

Halloween is so fun. I'm just wondering what Heidi Klum is doing.

My fav this year = Dolly Parton as Veruca Salt! https://www.instagram.com/p/Ba6haOdhHoF/

You don't have Kelly Rowland as Helen Strangรฉ (Grace Jones) from Boomerang!

October 31, 2017 | Unregistered Commenter/3rtful

someone please explain sarah paulson and holland taylor...

October 31, 2017 | Unregistered CommenterEricB

Halloween is so great!

And supplemental info on Will Poulter's costume... not only was he a good sport about dressing up as Sid, but he did it to shine a light on bullying:

Eric B -- what's to explain? They're in love.

Bruce Willis is the clear winner for me. The other guy looks like a brother.

Oh, and can Patricia Clarkson sing? She's a perfect actress even in a photo! I could totally see her nailing Glinda.

OF COURSE Justin Timberlake went as Buzz and not Woody, even though his wife went as Woody's... whatever we call Jesse (girlfriend?)

And that Colton Haines Marge Simpson is hideous. Yikes.

The rest are fab.

November 1, 2017 | Unregistered CommenterGlenn Dunks

Actually, Jessie IS indeed Buzz's girlfriend. NOT Woody's.
