Now This is the Spirit of 2008 Halloween Costumes!

Hello crazy Monkey fans!...Halloween has come and gone, just a day ago...Ghouls, ghosts, ghoblins and min-Barack Obamas paraded around neighborhoods in search of sweet treats or scary tricks! Now in the AM, while this monkey scanned some of the morning talk shows and news programs I was very disappointed to see a general lack of Halloween spirit. As we all know Halloween is supposedly a day for the chiquitas to dress up sexy and scandalous and for monkeys to dress up just plain goofy and ridiculous! As you can see in the photo above, NBC did just that on their Today Show. On the left we have news girl Natalie Morales as the sexy Princess Leia from Star Wars...and on the right side is Al Roker as a gigantic, goofy Gingerbread man. Look at the expressions on both Darth Vader and the little kid in the right hand corner's faces...Pure looks of WTF?! directed at Mr. Roker. He definitely rocked that costume!

Also congrats to Princess Leia for having a new baby!! Does this mean we will be in store for a new installment of Star Wars soon? Is that the next Jedi Knight she's holding??



See above, Amy Robach and Meredith Veira also were in true Halloween spirit. Amy was the sexy fair maiden Rapunzel and Meredith was the not-so-sexy Pinnochio. Ok so not all female chiquita's costumes can be sexy! With her nose that length, we have to wonder which news stories she lied to us about!



And let's not forget Matt Lauer, the other male anchor on Today. He dressed up Humpty Dumpty and actually fell of a wall on the air!



Regis & Kelly were Vice-presidential hopefuls Joe Biden and Sarah Palin. Kelly's dead on for that one, just like Tina Fey of SNL!



And in this final photo above, a big blue monster showed up to take Regis' place as co-host of the show with smokin' hot Kelly Ripa! What a lucky big blue monster indeed!

Hope everyone had a happy and safe Haunted Halloween!
