Paula Abdul Halloween Costume

The Costume: Paula Abdul

What You'll Need: Being former 'American Idol' judge Paula Abdul (not unlike 'Being Bobby Brown') is all about the attitude: Randomly jump around and start dancing, while throwing your hands in the air and making the "I love you" horns ... randomly start spouting nonsensical phrases like "Simon always refers to a fortune cookie and says the moth who finds the melon finds the corn flake always finds the melon and one of you didn't pick the right fortune" ... randomly start slurring your speech and nodding off, like you're "tired" while giving a TV interview ... you get the idea. Act craz ... uh, enthusiastic and spirited.

As for the outfit, Paula has many looks, but a long brown wig, lots of makeup, door-knocker earrings, a large choker necklace, several bracelets (perhaps selections from the HSN Paula Abdul jewelry line?), cocktail rings, a bustier, tight pants, a beauty mark on the left side of your face and, of course, a red Coke cup, will make you one fine Paula.

Optional Accessories: Someone dressed like Simon Cowell, who you will argue with and occasionally make out with or someone dressed like former 'American Idol' contestant Corey Clark, whom you'll just randomly make out with.
