What, it’s an honest question. I only ask because Gawker reports that CNN Money reports that Charlie Sheen is anticipated to be the most popular costume this Halloween. And CNN could well be dead-on: you wouldn’t believe how many Charlie Sheen “party supplies” are out there (no, that was not a veiled cocaine joke). So you see, I have to ask what you’re planning to go as for Halloween, because it would be SO EMBARRASSING if we went to that house party on Division Street wearing the same thing.
More from CNN Money:
In a growing trend toward pop-culture references, top choices for women include Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and Snooki (or any member of the gang from the Jersey Shore cast). As for the kids, it’s all about the popular mobile phone app Angry Birds.
Thanks in part to the AMC series The Walking Dead, zombies are also making a big comeback, according to a separate report by the National Retail Federation.
CNN Money adds that the National Retail Federation (which is a real, actual thing, evidently) expects the average American to spend $73.21 on Halloween crap. Of course, if you’re an especially big spender, I happen to know where you can get a pretty intense Charlie Sheen mask.
I’m not dressing up, but my son is going as Doctor Who and my daughter’s going as Zombie Elton John. Based not just on them but also their friends, I expect to see lots of Doctor Who and zombies this year, so if you don’t want to be caught in the same thing as someone else, don’t go as River Song.
Or Zombie River Song.
LOL!
My friend’s daughter has a wardrobe painted like a Tardis. I LOVE that kids are so into the show, just as generations of kids before them were!
That Sheen looks like Mr. Big.
Don’t zombies, by definition, have to make a big comeback?
LOL!
I’ll be going as Isabelle Faith from Australia’s Next Top Model due to my friends suggesting it & Izzy endorsing it :)
