Halloween 2025 is just getting started, but some fans are already saying Niecy Nash won. The actress, comedian, and all-around baddie dropped new photos that have the internet talking. As we start our countdown to the costume-forward holiday, Niecy has already set the standard – in style and attitude.
Niecy Nash As Claressa Shields – The 2025 Halloween Knockout We Didn’t See Coming
Niecy came through swinging this Halloween. Literally.
Channeling world champion boxer Claressa “T-Rex” Shields, she nailed one of the athlete’s most viral moments: the glamorous Detroit weigh-in that had social media buzzing. Claressa’s look ate and gave major main character energy.
In Niecy’s Halloween dump, she flexed her flawless curves in a one-shoulder gray Gucci monogram bikini set, showing off her sculpted arms and a waist that had everyone saying, “what waist?” The look was spot-on – from the platinum-blonde, sleek wig to the diamond “T-Rex” necklace and crystal Gucci slides.

And let’s not forget the coat. A plush natural fur draped effortlessly over her shoulders, adding that Niecy-level glam we’ve come to expect. She topped it off with iced-out grills, flirty smirks, and flawless makeup that would make even the glam squad at Claws jealous.
Her wife, Jessica Betts, matched her energy perfectly — stepping in as rapper Papoose, Claressa’s real-life man. Jessica kept it cool in a black tee, dark jeans, designer chains, and a Yankees fitted. In the carousel pics, she held championship belts like a true heavyweight.
Together, they looked every bit the power couple and were definitely giving Claressa and Papoose.
Niecy’s no stranger to Halloween greatness. From Jessica Rabbit to Coming to America’s royal glam, and even her Rihanna-inspired moment, she always shows up and shows out. This year she’s giving bawdy, confidence, and culture.
Shall we call it her look undefeated?

Keep scrolling to see the looks we’ve already spotted from Taraji P. Henson and Love Island USA’sOlandria Carthen as we celebrate another year of spooky, stylish magic.
1. Taraji P. Henson Channels Janet Jackson
Taraji P. Henson jumped into the Halloween spirit early with a playful nod to Janet Jackson. She revived a cultural classic — the unforgettable For Colored Girls movie scene where Janet famously asked her man if he was gay, and “doing the bending.”
To capture the moment, Taraji went all in. Her makeup was flawless, her smoky eyes popped, and her short, sleek haircut perfectly mirrored Janet’s iconic look. Taking the look to the next level, her contour was sculpted to perfection, giving her those signature Janet cheekbones. Fans instantly recognized reference and are loving the video rendition.
2. Olandria Carthen Brings It On
While promoting a low-calorie sports drink, Love Island USA star Olandria Carthen reminded us that Halloween is also about having fun. She posed alongside her man Nick, dressed as the cutest cheerleader – and we’re obsessed.vThe two served full-on couple goals, posing in locker rooms, classrooms, and gym hallways that gave total high-school nostalgia.
While the campaign is clearly a brand ad, it still gave Bring It On energy – and we mean the Clovers era, led by Gabrielle Union herself. Olandria’s green, orange, and yellow cheerleading outfit was a dead ringer for the iconic Clover uniforms, and she brought that same confident, spirited energy to every pose.
