Mediaite Presents: 20 Killer Costumes — A Halloween 2009 Retrospective

 

For some, Halloween is an opportunity to take on a new persona; for others, it’s an opportunity to proudly let their true colors fly. Mediaite has combed celebrity sites, media soirees, and the viral web to assemble some of our favorite costumes of Halloween ’09. In our travels, we’ve come across Heidi Klum dressed as a raven, Nick Douglas dressed as PostSecret, Jon Gosselin dressed as a shallow celebrity tabloid cover (!), and much, much more:

1. James Gandolfini as Homer Simpson (image via Dlisted)

No, he does not seem to be trying especially hard, but then, would the real Homer? Maybe it’s part of the costume.

2. Jon Gosselin as a shallow celebrity wannabe (via Buzzfeed)

3. Katie Couric as Aaden Gosselin (image via Extra TV)

For the full story of why Katie picked Aaden, of all of the eight who are enough, read this. And if you have a photo, send it on to tips@mediaite.com!

4. Today Show as Star Wars




This stunning group costume/spectacle got a bit freaky when the full drunkenness of the Ewoks made itself known. Yes, you read that correctly.

5. Bill O’Reilly on The View as Dracula




Surprisingly, a forum in which Elisabeth Hasselbeck is dressed up as a giant box of Count Chocula can lead to some really heated political debate.
