The 5 Worst Musician-Inspired Halloween Costumes

Ahh, it is that time of year again where you can get decked out as anything your little heart desires! If you aren’t down with dressing up as a pumpkin or a witch this year, musicians act as pretty decent inspiration for costumes. Sadly, most of them are more pathetic than they are awe-inpiring. Here are the top five worst (or awesome if you want a healthy dose of irony this year) music-inspired costumes that we have found people searching for this year.

Take a look at a few gems for this year’s Halloween party…

1. The Uninspired:

This is Lady Gaga… REALLY? This has got to be the most uninspired costumes to grace the Earth. Lady Gaga dresses like it is Halloween everyday, and this is the best costume they could come up with? The singer sculpts her hair into a bow for Christ’s sake! This is how most girls dress on a Saturday night, so you might want to up the ante a just a touch for Halloween.

2. The “Just Wrong”

With the recent passing of Michael Jackson there really has been a resurgence of everything MJ. In honor of his passing, it seems a lot of people are dusting off the white glove and bringing back the stringy wigs. There are so many different phases of the singers life that is was really difficult to choose just one, but this shop seems to be going after the “I touch myself in all the wrong ways” look. What really gets me about this costume are the guys modeling them. If you look at all like him you’re going to be slapped with child molester jokes the whole night. The man just passed, have some respect and DO NOT dress up like him this year and if you do, put some time into it!

3.Still!?!

Apparently MC Hammer costumes are still highly sought after… What’s up guys? Can’t miss an opportunity to wear parachute pants? The costume is actually kind of incredible in an awful, super cliched sort of way. The color is really what tips the scale. Too bad this bad boy costa $200 (seriously). I will refrain from making a bad bankruptcy pun regarding the price of an MC Hammer costume because that would just be too easy.

4. Missing the 80’s?

If you are feeling a little more adventurous, you can always go all out with Dee Snider from the 80’s rock band, Twisted Sister. Nothing screams “I Wanna Rock” like pink shoulder pads, mesh, and makeup. Right? Wrong! Dress up like this and you’ll look more like a jester than Dee. If you’re a real fan, you’ll be able to make this dream a reality out of the clothes you have in storage. Come on, you know you’ve got some better mesh hidden away than this!

5. What are you?!?

And the biggest WTF costume goes to…a Slipknot jumpsuit? Apparently this is supposed to be the uniform the band wears, but honestly, what the fuck is it? It looks like the normal clothes of those awkward kids in high school. You’re supposed to have fun on Halloween! With this costume you just look like the socially awkward guy wearing the polyester pajamas standing in the corner. Fun.

Have you seen or dressed in a horrible costume. If so, leave us a comment and PLEASE OH PLEASE a picture.
