The VMAs are the gift that keeps on giving when it comes to Halloween costumes. We have the show to thank for iconic looks like Britney Spears and the snake, J.Lo and her white bandana, Lil Kim and her nipple cover, Miley Cyrus and her space buns, Britney and Justin in DENIM! The list goes on and on.
This year, however, the looks are giving Halloween inspo in uhh, a different way. Like, in the sense that they already look like costumes as opposed to red carpet outfits. Naturally, putting these celebs side by side with the shit they look like is the only thing left to do…
