Janelle Monáe Is Unrecognizable in Elaborate ‘E.T.’ Halloween Costume


Janelle Monae dressed as the loveable alien E.T. for Halloween 2024. See the costume here.

When Janelle Monáe sang that she was “an alien from outer space” on 2008’s “Violet Stars Happy Hunting,” she meant it — she so committed to the bit, in fact, that her lyric is paying off 16 years later. Dressed in a full-body recreation of the original puppet from the film, Monáe modeled a number of iconic looks from the movie, including the famous dress-up scene between the alien and Drew Barrymore’s character. For anyone who wanted to see the costume in action, Monáe is set to appear as a guest on The Jennifer Hudson Show on Thursday (Oct. 31), and the host posted a clip of her entrance.
