Paris Hilton Looks Unrecognizable With Long Black Hair

One of the best parts of Halloween is seeing celebrities look nothing like themselves. For example, when I saw Paris Hilton's costume, I didn't realize it was her because she had long black waves instead of her signature frosty blonde hair. The socialite pulled out a black wig to dress up as Katy Perry, specifically in reference to the red latex outfit the pop star wore during her Las Vegas residency.

On October 28, Hilton attended Vas Morgan and Michael Braun's Halloween Party in her all-red outfit with long black hair. She wore a latex bodysuit, chaps with fringes running down either side, and a mushroom-shaped hat. The hat sat on top of her loose, jet-black waves, which cascaded towards her waist. She paired them with bronzed cheeks and glossy nude lips

On first impression, I thought that Hilton had created her own version of Toad from the Super Mario Bros. franchise, but, in fact, she chose to recreate the red latex fringe ensemble that Perry wore for her Las Vegas Residency in 2021. If, like me, you're unfamiliar with the look, take a peek at the photo below and you'll see just how much nailed the look. Hilton's fans certainly think so; as one user commented on her Instagram post, “You look more like Katy than Katy! That’s hot.”

This isn't the first time we've seen the star with black hair in recent years. Back in December, the socialite disguised herself with a jet-black wig styled into two braids for a day at Disneyland. That wig had bangs, so we're sure she didn't just pull it out again for her Halloween costume. 

Does that mean that Hilton potentially has a collection of black wigs at home? Maybe. But we'll have to wait until the next time she steps out with dark hair to be sure.
