The great and the good of the showbiz world are almost unrecognisable as all of our favourite stars in the UK and the US have undergone the wildest of makeovers overnight – happy Halloween!

Heidi Klum has been hailed as the "queen of Halloween" for her iconic costumes over the years and this year was no different as she transformed into ET when she hosted her 23rd Annual Halloween Party at Hard Rock Hotel New York on Wednesday in New York City.

Social media were quick to point out that singer Janelle Monae had already gone as ET when she appeared on The Jennifer Hudson Show that aired on Halloween.

Among the comments, one person wrote: "Heidi Klum after seeing Janelle Monae already do ET earlier this week."

Another joked: "Heidi klum's PR team after seeing Janelle Monae's IG yesterday."

Someone else said: "What do you mean Heidi Klum and Janelle Monae dressed up as the same thing for halloween?"

Swedish model Elsa Hosk's Halloween costume also was a big talking point this year. Hosk recreated Princess Diana's "revenge dress" look.

The royal — who died in a car crash in Paris in 1997 — wore a Stambolian black silk gown at a 1994 dinner in Kensington on the day that Prince Charles, now the King, went public on TV with his affair with Camilla, now Queen Consort. Her Halloween costume had all the details, including a similar necklace that Princess Diana wore that day.

Alongside the footage, she wrote: "The people's princess."

Over in the UK, Pixie Lott took inspiration from one of her favourite tipples for her Halloween costumes. Her outfit was totally sweet as she went as an Aperol Spritz cocktail when she attended the Annabel's Halloween 2024: Ghosts of Versailles party, in London.

It was a Lott of fun as she even had a glass shaped dress and two oranges to pull off the astonishing look. Completing the look, Lott had a Aperol Spritz handbag too.

Maya Jama also caused a stir on social media with her Halloween look. The Love Island host went as Beetlejuice's unruly niece with a dramatic pinstriped black and white suit, contrasted with a wavy green wig. She looked sensational.

Jonathan Ross' A-list parties were once the talk of Halloween in the UK. Stars including Nicole Scherzinger and Dame Joan Collins used to attend the spooky events at his north London home once upon a time.

However, the talk show host stopped doing the parties during the Covid pandemic but he later explained he would no longer have celebrities come to his house because of his daughter Betty's health. Betty has fibromyalgia which according to the NHS is a long-term condition that causes widespread pain and other symptoms, such as fatigue, difficulty sleeping and brain fog.

He previously said on Good Morning Britain: "One of our children isn't well... it's fibromyalgia which is quite debilitating. She's back home with us and we're looking after her. My daughter, we thought she had Long Covid but discovered that she had fibromyalgia, so we want to be conscious of that and not have so much noise when she's upstairs."

This year, Ross still got into the spirit of Halloween by dressing up and handing out sweet treats to trick or treaters.

Myleene Klass joined the Halloween transformations in the UK as she became Wonder Woman — the film character that cemented Gal Gadot as an international star — in her recognisable red corset and blue pants, matched with thigh-high red boots.

Completing the look, I'm A Celebrity legend wore a gold headband featuring a red star and her hair in bouncy waves. Taking to Instagram to share her Halloween makeover, she wrote: "When I deal with them, I deal with them’ (in my big girl pants) Happy Halloween."

But what big hands Molly-Mae Hague had! Hague showed off her Halloween party for her little girl Bambi. The influencer went to great lengths with her Halloween costume, dressing up as the wolf pretending to be the granny in Red Riding Hood.

Her daughter, whom she shares with her ex Tommy Fury, stole the show as a little Red Riding Hood in her cute chequered dress. The Love Island star called the party as "Bambi's Boogie Ball", featuring a ball pit and Jellycat toys.

As well as scary outfits, some celebrities like to dress up as other stars on Halloween. Can't Get Ashley Roberts' costume Out Of your Head? The Pussycats Dolls star went for an iconic look this Halloween as she transformed into Kylie Minogue from the 2000s era.

The singer dressed up as Minogue from her 2001 Can't Get You Out Of My Head video, wearing a white playsuit with huge slits up the side and a hood. Even Minogue herself was impressed as she shared two white hearts beneath the pictures giving her seal of approval.

Katie Price went for an old school Halloween favourite when joining her boyfriend JJ Slater at the spooktacular extravaganza for the 2024 Kiss Haunted House Party, in London on Wednesday. Mum-of-five Price gave people the chills with half her face painted as a skeleton, the perfect match for her jumpsuit that had a ribcage printed in silver across it.

It comes after Price has been driving fans wild with the baby mystery, although many suspect she has been cradling dolls to promote an upcoming IVF documentary tipped to air on Channel 4.

You would be forgiven for not recognising Married At First Sight Slater as he showed off his devilish side with red paint and devil horns. The couple were enjoying a night out together in the UK, having recently returned from their holiday in Cyprus.

They were in the company of Price's two eldest children Princess and Junior whom she shares with her ex-husband Peter Andre. Junior, 19, was stylishly in sync with Price's partner as he become a devil for the night in a red suit featuring dazzling sequins.

It's been two months since Junior went red carpet official with his new girlfriend and they looked great together at the haunted party. Jasmine Orr wore freaky fake blood makeup and her hair in pigtails.

Princess, 17, got into the scary spirit when she wore a creepy clown outfit, no doubt inspired by Stephen King's iconic character in IT. Half her face was separated with fake blood and painted white with a bloody red smile. Making the look even eerier, Princess wore one light blue contact lens. Creepy!

Game Of Thrones star Sophie Turner also upped the style stakes at a Halloween party this weekend. The Joan actor was seen wearing a Matrix-inspired costume in latex with fake guns and those quirky micro-sunglasses.

Also going for a look from the movies was British comedian Amelia Dimoldenberg, who dressed as Roz from Monsters Inc. What a throwback! The Chicken Shop Date star mastered the look as she wore green face paint and an out-there purple wig.

She jested in the caption that she was dressing up as the "original office siren". Her costume courted the attention of celebrities all over including Kylie Jenner, Little Mix's Jade Thirlwall and more.

The This Morning TV brought Halloween to life when they all dressed up for the spooky special. As it was Friday, Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary were at the helm of the show and they got into the spirit of the Monster Mash.

They were quite the pair, transforming into Frankenstein's monster and his bride. TV cook Phil Vickery didn't miss out on the fun as he cooked up a festive look, choosing to be a devil in a red suit and mask.
