Live: Michael as Jay-Z and Kelly as Beyonce
Kelly & Michael had several costume changes during Live’s Halloween Hurricane Telethon. One of the best found the hosts dressed up as music’s biggest power couple: Jay-Z and Beyonce! Little Blue Ivy even made an appearance, as well. Michael may not be able to rap like Jay-Z, but he sure had his moves down pat.
Viewers donned their best costumes for Live’s Annual Halloween Costume Contest.
There were also more great celebrity cameos from Jason Kennedy of E! News, Carson Kressley, and Olympic Gold Medalist Gabrielle Douglas. Skits included Michael Strahan in drag as Madea, Kelly Ripa as Angelina Jolie and the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, and a brand new “Call Me Maybe” parody starring the hosts.
The final costume change found Kelly & Michael, along with Art Moore and Gelman, dressed as new American Idol judges Nicki Minaj, Randy Jackson, Mariah Carey and Keith Urban. Nicki and Randy– I mean, Kelly and Michael– then announced the finalists and winner of Live’s annual Halloween Costume Contest.
