Halloween is sort of here, and there are a lot of sites who are releasing their'top ideas' for these year's Halloween. Naturally, we are spotting lots of different trends, but none more notable than dressing up as MJ -- Michael Jackson, that's -- the King of Pop.
There are a whole lot of options with an MJ Halloween costume, but with whatever you decide you are going to do, we have an inventory of the top five dos and don'ts for you to follow. Let's begin with a couple of the MJ Halloween costume Dos :
four ) DO talk in the high pitched voice ( but don't go overboard ) This voice, and sweet demeanor, are as much part of the costume as anything else.
three ) DO use catch phrases ( as an example, let folks know you are'Bad,' tell them their party is a'Thriller,' introduce your date as'Billy Jean,' and feel free to use being a'Smooth Criminal' as a pickup line ).
two ) DO use full makeup and wig. Especially if you're doing a role that has more elements to it than standard, the makeup and wig are needed. If you're doing Thriller, it just wouldn't be the same without the sunken cheeks and prominent eyes. If you're doing bad, you need the long curly hair.
one ) DO learn the dance moves. Seriously, even if you are just picking up little bits of Thriller or Smooth Criminal, or juts the moonwalk, these are the things that your pals will remember. Especially female chums. Wink wink.
Now, here are some things that ( in the opinion of this writer ) you should absoltuely avoid :
five ) DON'T just put on a glove. That's's stupid. Putting on one glove does not constitute an MJ Halloween costume, but I have seen people trying, and I have seen sites selling just the glove. If you're going to do this, go the whole way. Nothing announces'dinky' like a two dollar costume.
four ) DON'T dress in tight pants unless you're in fine condition. Trust me, nobody wants to see a chubby guy ( or girl ) in skin tight leather ( or pleather ) pants.
3 ) DON'T grab your crotch unless you are well protected, or extremely careful.
2 ) DON'T overdo the pasty white skin unless you're intentionally doing the modern look for MJ. For the majority of his career, he wasn't that color ( it was his skin illness progressing, according to what we all know, that caused the white skin ), so try and match skin tone to the time age of the costume, if you're going to alter your skin tone.
one ) DON'T pretend to be a pedophile. He died this year. Don't you think he's been thru enough? I mean, seriously. I want to remind everybody that those allegations weren't only never proved, but the psychiatrists evaluation made things very plain! Michael Jackson didn't abuse children. He used to be a kid himself. He'd been stole of his infancy to stand in the lime light, and we are those who gained from that. Disrepecting him and his memory is something that should be avoided at all costs, particularly in the year of his passing.
that's's all we have for you today, folks! As long as you are following these straightforward axioms, you should be a smash. Best of luck!
