Heidi Klum paid tribute to Michael Jackson in the perfect ‘Thriller’ costume. The model transformed herself into the werewolf from ‘Thriller’ for her Halloween bash in New York.
Always a Halloween fan, Heidi has delivered some of the coolest costumes in her parties dating back to 2000. Including her own clones and Betty Boop.
Honoring the King
This year Heidi Klum decided to honor Michael Jackson. She transformed into the werewolf in Jackson’s classic 1982 music video for ‘Thriller.’
Klum, who is quite a Halloween fan, assisted the help of special effects make-up studio to unveil her incredible costume at her 18th annual Halloween party. Sponsored by Svedka Vodka and Party City inside Moxy Times Square in N.Y.C.
“Michael Jackson was always such an icon. The ‘Thriller’ video is such an iconic video and I was like, ‘I have to redo that,’” Klum said of why she chose this year’s garb.
The model accompanied the costume with quite a performance during her annual Halloween party. In which she danced ‘Thriller.’
“Obviously it’s difficult because I can’t dance like Michael Jackson. I don’t think anyone can dance like Michael Jackson, but I tried my hardest,” Klum told PEOPLE.
Earlier in the day, Klum documented her process of getting ready for the party. It started six hours before the anticipated party.
She shared videos on Instagram of her makeover and while getting her face and prosthetics done.
Last September, she hinted she’d worn a scary costume and said.
“This year I’m going to be scary,” she explained.
“Not Scary Spice, but I’m going to be scary because last year I was just me, and I had five clones.”
Klum’s recent costume choices include the 95-year-old version of herself, Jessica Rabbit, and Heidi Klum accompanied by five Heidi Klum clones.
Honoring music icons was trend among celebrities this year, with Kim Kardashian channeling her inner Cher, Aaliyah and Madonna, and her sister Kourtney K channeling Michael Jackson.
