Honey Boo Boo child

Honey Boo Boo
mama
Who knew the show HereComes Honey Boo Boo would get higher ratings than the Republican National Convention? Mama June farts her way to stardom in this cultural horror show. You’ll need to staple some coupons to a muddy muumuu padded with pillows and don’t forget a giant tub of Country Crock. Also, be sure to eat plenty of beans before attending the party for an evening filled with toots.

McKayla Maroney’s
“not impressed”face
The cute gymnast became an Internet sensation when she couldn’t hide her disappointment at failing to win the gold for the vault at the 2012 Olympics. All you’ll need for her costume is a leotard, a fake silver medal and a slanted frown. (Note to McKayla: We think winning silver is awesome!)

Dead Big Bird
The unexpected star of the presidential debate wasn’t Romney or Obama but the beloved Big Bird from Sesame Street, a show on PBS that Romney claims he’ll defund if he’s elected. You’ll need lots of yellow feathers, fake blood and makeup to make a gunshot wound and a sign that says, “I voted for Romney.”

Mommy Snooki
It’s hard to believe this Jersey Shore meatball is actually in charge of baby Lorenzo, but it’s happened. For this costume, you’ll need a black wig, a baby doll in a Bjorn, giant eyelashes and a bottle of tequila.

Catwoman
and Bane

Queen of England
and James Bond
