These celebrities have the upper hand when it comes to over-the-top Halloween costumes.
Many of Hollywood’s biggest names were nearly unrecognizable while attending Heidi Klum’s annual Halloween party in New York City Oct. 31, transforming into some of pop culture’s most iconic characters.
Neil Patrick Harris and husband David Burtka did a 180 and turned into the twins from The Shining with brunette wigs, colored contacts, baby blue dresses and all.
For his part, James Charles made onlookers do a double-take as villain Yzma from 2000’s The Emperor’s New Groove, telling E! News it took him seven and a half hours to get ready for the event, which was presented by Apothic and Butterfinger at Cathédrale in New York City.
“I did prosthetics, and I’m not a special effects makeup artist, so that definitely tacked on a little bit more time than I would normally need,” Charles told E!. “It’s one of my favorite movies from when I was a kid. It’s just a great way to combine glamor, camp, color and a lot of effort for Halloween.”
Meanwhile, Taylor Momsen proved ghouls just wanna have fun, dressing as rocker Angus Young after touring with AC/DC for the past three years.
