So, what did your favorite celebs dress as for Halloween? At her famous annual party, Heidi Klum stole the show in a giant alien-robot costume, complete with purple face makeup and built-in red stilts that elevated her to 8 feet tall, while hubby Seal was the Silver Surfer from “Fantastic 4.”
“I wanted to be like an alien Transformer,” Heidi told Us magazine, adding that it took “a few hours” in makeup, but walking in the crazy costume was “not that hard.”
Meanwhile, at Kate Hudson’s Saturday bash, Amanda Seyfried donned a brown puppy suit (comfy – well played!), while Nicole Richie sported a fur coat to channel Gwyneth Paltrow’s “Royal Tenenbaums” character. Her hubby-to-be, Joel Madden, dressed as a gynecologist, which … well, no comment.
Of course, some celebs use Halloween as an excuse to bare more skin than usual (stars, they’re just like us!).
Paris Hilton stepped out Saturday night in a barely-there “Indian princess” costume, complete with feathered headdress. But she succeeded a little too well in her mission to flash flesh — her bikini top veered into wardrobe-malfunction territory.
In a stroke of absurd genius/ridiculousness that could only have come from the brain trust of “Jersey Shore,” Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi paid tribute to her favorite snack by dressing as a “Pickle Princess,” complete with a giant-pickle scepter.
As for the other celeb who herself was a hot-selling Halloween costume, we felt Lady Gaga kind of phoned it in. Clad in a Cruela de Vil black-and-white wig, and a dalmation-print fur coat over fake-blood-spattered lingerie, she pretty much looked just like she usually does. Step it up next year, would you, Gaga?
Charlie ready for divorce
Reports of Charlie Sheen’s impending death were premature, according to his manager.
Though Radar Online quoted a source close to the actor declaring that his hard-partying ways could take a tragic turn within the week, Mark Burg calls such talk “reckless lies.”
After hearing buzz that the “Two and a Half Men” star was on a cocaine bender with prostitutes at his home, Burg stopped by to find Charlie on the couch — eating a turkey sandwich (and, we assume, fully clothed).
“Charlie looked at me like I was nuts” when asked about Radar’s report, the manager told TMZ. “He looked as normal as he’s looked in a long time.”
We’re not exactly sure how to interpret that last comment, in light of last week’s naked hotel-room-trashing freakout, but we’re happy to hear Charlie’s all right.
In other, less shocking news, the actor filed for divorce from wife Brooke Mueller. The couple separated last Christmas.
Cox talks
After letting estranged husband David Arquette do the talking (and talking and talking) on Howard Stern’s radio show, Courteney Cox has broken her silence to talk about their separation.
“Sometimes you just realize, ‘Wow, we actually have grown apart,’” the “Cougar Town” told TV Week.
“I don’t know what will happen, but this is not like we’re getting divorced,” said the actress. “This is a separation, and I think that takes a lot of courage.
“Whatever is supposed to happen will be the best thing for us.”
As for her hubby’s TMI chats with Howard, Courteney dismissed them by saying David “is a kook. It’s not shocking. David is an entertainer, and I’m sure the people who listen to the radio are entertained by his stories.”
Oh, we were definitely entertained. We just didn’t expect Courteney to be, what with the details about her love life and all.
