Ariana Grande Retains Halloween Costume Crown With Creature From The Black Lagoon

Ariana Grande Retains Halloween Costume Crown With Creature From The Black LagoonAlamy/@ArianaGrande/Twitter

Ariana Grande’s Creature from the Black Lagoon Halloween costume is amazing, startling and shocking.

Similarly to The Weeknd, the thank u, next popstar never takes the spooky season lightly. In 2019, she underwent five hours ‘in prosthetics and glam’ for her costume inspired by the ‘Eye of the Beholder’ episode of The Twilight Zone. ‘Nothing makes me more feel more joy. Even if I can’t breathe or drink or eat,’ she wrote at the time.

This year, she stepped up her game even further. ‘Not since the beginning of time has the world beheld terror like this,’ as Grande transformed into the Creature from the Black Lagoon.

The original black-and-white 1954 movie follows a group of scientists who discover a strange prehistoric ‘Gill-man’ lurking in the depths of the Amazon. The original costume had a massive impact on pop culture, with Guillermo del Toro using it as an inspiration for his Oscar-winning The Shape of Water.

Posting to Twitter and Instagram, Grande unveiled her amazing effort with a simple black heart emoji, complete with a mock-up movie poster titled Miss Creature from the Black Lagoon, also ‘featuring Dalton Gomez as Handsome Scuba Man’.

The poster credits the incredible talent behind the costume, including hair stylist Josh Liu, makeup artist and prosthetics specialist Julie Hassett, photographer and designer Katia Temkin, eye makeup artist Ash K Holm, stylist Mimi Cuttrell and prosthetics assistants Ally McGillicuddy and Cici Andersen.

It’s unclear how long this particular costume took to come together, but one would assume it was even longer than five hours. In another glimpse shared on Instagram, Grande also dressed up as Ellen Greene’s Audrey from Little Shop of Horrors.

The post has racked up nearly 330,000 likes, with thousands of comments from her fans saying she ‘understood the assignment’ and ‘killed it’ this year.

Quidditch Leagues Look To Distance Themselves From JK Rowling

Alamy Two major Quidditch leagues have said they plan to cut ties with JK Rowling as a result of her ‘anti-trans positions’ by changing the name of the game. US Quidditch and Major League Quidditch, which play a real-life version of the fictional sport created by Rowling for the Harry Potter series, issued a joint statement confirming that they planned to choose a new name for their game to both distance themselves from the author and avoid future copyright issues. While citing issues arising from the use of the current name, which according to USA Today is trademarked by Warner Bros. and prevent teams from pursuing commercial opportunities, the leagues directly pointed to Rowling’s comments over recent years, which have seen fans and former cast members of the films distance themselves from the author, as a significant reason for the change. Warner Bros. ‘The leagues are hoping a name change can help them continue to distance themselves from the works of JK Rowling, the autho...
