Beetlejuice Is the Ghost with the Most TV Host Halloween Costumes! See Al Roker, Kelly Clarkson and More as the Ghoul

Beetlejuice is the ghost with the most in more ways than one this Halloween!

The famed ghoul proved to be a popular costume choice among TV show hosts with Al Roker, Mark Consuelos and Kelly Clarkson all slipping into black-and-white pantsuits and donning green wigs on their respective shows on Thursday, Oct. 31. Roker, 70, was joined by Dylan Dreyer as Winona Ryder's character Lydia Deetz from the 1988 and 2024 films on Today, while Kelly Ripa also dressed as Lydia alongside her husband's Beetlejuice on Live with Kelly and Mark.

Beetlejuice — famously played by Michael Keaton — is having a moment in 2024 thanks to the release of the original film's long-awaited sequel, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, in September. Given the bio-exorcist's resurgence in popularity, it's no wonder the character was a go-to pick for hosts looking for a spooky, but fun costume choice this year.

For her part, Clarkson, 42, fully understood the assignment with a little help from Emmy-nominated makeup artist Gloria Elias-Foeillet and Emmy-winning special effects makeup artist and Saturday Night Live department head Louie Zakarian. The "Since U Been Gone" singer was unrecognizable in her ghostly white makeup, shabby black-and-white striped suit and wild green wig.

She even committed to mimicking Keaton's unique way of voicing Beetlejuice and kicked off the episode with a Kellyoke version of "Banana Boat (Day-O)," the Harry Belafonte tune that scores one of Beetlejuice's most iconic scenes.

Over on Today, Roker wore Beetlejuice's same iconic ensemble with just a tad less detail than Clarkson's look. However, he had a partner in the form of Dreyer, 43, who wore an all-black, full-goth dress to embody a young Lydia complete with a wild updo straight out of the '80s.

The co-anchors teamed up for a recreation of the original movie's reluctant dance scene that made their looks all the more authentic.

On Live with Kelly and Mark, long-time married couple and co-hosts Ripa, 54, and Consuelos, 53, wore multiple costumes for their 2024 Halloween spectacular, but their Beetlejuice group costume was a highlight of the episode.

Consuelos joined the crowd by sporting Beetlejuice's most famous look complete with ghoulish makeup and green hair, but Ripa opted for Lydia's red wedding dress over the character's standard black ensemble. The couple was joined by singer Deja Vu as the dead Miss Argentina in a red dress and orange-ish wig and producer Michael Gelman as the shrunken-headed Bob, who wore a bright yellow suit complete with name tag.

The TV show hosts weren't the only ones summoning Beetlejuice with their costumes this holiday season — stars including Jenni 'JWoww' Farley, Ashley Graham and Chris Appleton drew inspiration from the films for their Halloween costumes, too.
