Halloween is the one night a year when a gay can dress like a total…you get the drift. Anyway Halloween is a queer holiday. We don’t make the rules, we just enforce them. On this queer holiday, plenty of folks find more and more creative ways to dress up as their favorite celebrity, character, or meme. This year, some of your favorite queerly beloved public figures took it a step further and essentially won Halloween with some stellar costumes.
