Already calling it now: Katy Perry wins Halloween!

The 30-year-old pop star went to Kate Hudson's Halloween party Thursday night dressed as a Crunchy Flamin' Hot Cheeto—and yes, she was a Cheeto, singular!

Katy's costume didn't exactly flatter her famous figure. In fact, the shapeless, lumpy Cheeto suit covered up her killer curves entirely! She wore an orangey-red lycra shirt and matching pants beneath the bulky bodice and had matching shoes, laces, nails and lips.

Most impressively, perhaps, was her hot handbag—an actual bag of her beloved Flamin' hot Cheetos with handles attached so it could function as a purse.

This creative and clever costume will probably change Ms. Perry's relationship with her favorite Frito-Lay product, which she's admittedly binged on in tough times—like back in 2011, when she realized things weren't going to work out with Russell Brand.

"There were two weeks of my life after I found out the truth of my marriage where I was like, 'OK. All right. i can't feel this. This is too intense right now," she told Marie Claire. "I was like, 'I'm just eating Flamin' Hot Cheetos and drinking, and that's it.'"

Well, she's moved on, and now she can eat Flamin' Hot Cheetos—and be a Flamin' Hot Cheeto—in happy times, too. Snack food is all about perspective!
