Cardi B is getting animated for Halloween 2024!
On Thursday, Oct. 31, the Grammy winner stepped out at Doux Supper Club in New York City, where she attended a Halloween party while dressed as the iconic Jessica Rabbit from 1988’s Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
The 32-year-old MC initially debuted the bombshell red-and-purple look on her Instagram Story, where she danced around in front of a mirror wearing a sleek red dress, long purple gloves, red lip, purple eye shadow and some diamonds dangling off her ears to complete her outing as the beloved toon.
She also opted for some red curls to match the character’s hairstyle, as her overall look was reminiscent of the same sultry ensemble Jessica Rabbit wore while performing “Why Don’t You Do Right” in the classic movie.

The party itself, per a flyer shared to Cardi’s Instagram Story, was hosted by her sister Hennessy and pal Tstyles.
While there, Cardi filmed a few additional Instagram Story clips as she lip-sync’d songs in the club and hung out with her sister. In photos from the event, she could also be seen smiling in her Jessica Rabbit fit and posing for snaps as she showed off a shiny gem located underneath her eye.

Jessica Rabbit first made an appearance in the 1981 novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit and the eventual film, Who Framed Roger Rabbitdirected by Robert Zemeckis. In the years since, the character has become a Halloween fixture of sorts — with the likes of Mariah Carey and Heidi Klum dressing up as her for the spooky occasion.
Carey rocked her Jessica Rabbit costume in 2023, when she wore a sparkly red dress, a bright red wig, some elbow-length gloves and sparkly red stilettos. And Klum famously did her take on the character at her Halloween Party in 2015.

Cardi B’s previous Halloween looks have included matching witch costumes with daughter Kulture Kiari, a revealing Poison Ivy costume, and a yellow-painted Marge Simpson fit.
This year, however, Cardi is also the subject of someone else’s Halloween look. Sherri Shepherd stepped out for the Halloween episode of Sherri this week, channeling four fashion-forward outfits from Met Galas past — including those worn by Cardi, Kim Kardashian, Rihanna and Tyla.
For the Cardi costume, Shepherd channeled her epic gown from the 2019 Met Gala, which stylist Willie Sinclair III told PEOPLE took “over 200 hours of sewing” and was envisioned by designer Todd Fisher.
“I think the grandeur of Cardi B was, it was a perfect ender,” Shepherd said. “With all of the flow in red, you couldn’t beat it.”

“It had to elevate everything, and also be fun,” Shepherd also said. “You know, I grew up watching talk shows and I always loved the Halloween shows and seeing what people were wearing. So I knew when I had my own show, I’d want to continue it and make it big. I want people to say, ‘What is Sherri going to be doing?’ I wanted it to be big so they’d never forget.”

And Cardi certainly took notice of the look. The Grammy winner took to her Instagram Stories to share praise for Shepherd’s Met moment.
“Wowwwww so awesome,” Cardi shared.
