When it comes to pulling out show-stopping costumes for Halloween, daytime talk show hosts do not disappoint, and this year is no different.
True to nature, husband and wife duo Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos had a ton of fun cosplaying as Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga from the “Die with a Smile” music video. Drew Barrymore and the crew from The Talk also opted for goofy than spooky, with the Scream alum dressing up as the Queen of Halloween as The Talk hosts paid homage to some pop culture icons.
With Halloween in full swing, see all the costumes daytime talk show hosts wore for Halloween 2024.
‘Live with Kelly and Mark’
Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos love a pop culture reference and for their second Halloween as cohosts, the couple kicked things off by dressing up as Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars from the “Die with a Smile” music video.

The couple also dressed up as Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce when they went to watch the U.S. Open back in September.
The hosts had a whopping 40 pop-culture-inspired outfits during their Halloween episode — the most out of anyone this year.
‘The Drew Barrymore Show’
It’s (almost) time!
For her Halloween episode, Drew Barrymore dressed up as the Queen of Halloween. And as Oct. 31 marks the end of spooky season and the start of Mariah Carey season, she invited the queen of Christmas herself for the episode.
‘The Talk’
It was the who’s who of pop culture for the hosts of The Talk.
The crew paid homage to pop icons from all decades: Akbar Gbajabiamila dressed up as MC Hammer; Amanda Kloots was the pop princess herself, Britney Spears; Sheryl Underwood was the legendary Rick James, Jerry O’Connell was the iconic Cher and Natalie Morales was Mr. Worldwide, Pitbull.
‘The Kelly Clarkson Show’
Kelly Clarkson went all out and was completely unrecognizable, dressing up as Beetlejuice for her Halloween episode.
‘Sherri’
Sherri Shepherd took us to the Met Gala! The Sherri host wore four different costumes in a nod to some of the most iconic looks to ever come down the Met Gala carpet.
She started off with a version of Cardi B’s iconic oxblood Thom Browne dress from 2019, then she impersonated the buzzy, head-to-toe, all-black Balenciaga ensemble Kim Kardashian made headlines with in 2021.
Next up was a take on Rihanna’s all-white floral-embellished Valentino gown she wore in 2023. Shepherd even had Sherri executive producer Jawn Murray help her complete the look as he dressed up as Riri’s beau A$AP Rocky.
She completed her Halloween parade with an homage to Tyla’s debut Met Gala Balmain gown from this year’s event.
‘The Jennifer Hudson Show’
Jennifer Hudson paid homage to one of her heroes this Halloween: Whitney Houston. The talk show host transformed into The Queen of the Night, the persona made famous by the late singer in The Bodyguard and the song of the same name.
‘Today’
Today show hosts Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager gave us all the feels as Jack Dawson and Rose from Titanic.

Jenna Bush Hager also rocked a solo costume, taking us back to the days of videotapes and DVDs as a Blockbuster employee.
