Ciara and her family have won Halloween with their Beyoncé, Jackson family costumes
Singer and metro Atlanta native Ciara and her family decided to make a statement about music royalty with their Halloween costumes, and her fans are going, well, let’s say crazy over it.
The “Level Up” singer shared a photo on her Instagram of her and husband Russell Wilson dressed as Beyoncé and Jay-Z from their “APES**T” music video. The image, shared Wednesday morning, shows the duo in a similar stance, donning mirroring fashion and hairstyles as the musical power couple with a similar backdrop as the music video, which was shot in front of Leonardo da Vinci’s "Mona Lisa" at the Louvre Museum in Paris.
The caption for the Instagram post simply reads “Jay & Bey.” Fans have responded with comments and nearly 700,000 likes as of Wednesday morning. Gabrielle Union, who also drew fanfare for her “Bring it On” Halloween costume, responded with a number of hearts. Ciara’s fans, including user @jsolworld, responded with “Bodied this.”
Prior to Wednesday’s post, Ciara shared an adorable photo of her kids, Future and Sienna, dressed in a pink tuxedo and a matching pink gown and boa, respectively. Leaving no one to guess, Ciara captioned her Twitter post with photos of her kids with “The Jacksons.”
The kids recreated a moment from the 1970s when Janet Jackson and brother Randy performed as “The Littlest Jacksons.”
Some linked the Wilson kids' costumes to a different performance from a popular episode of "The Carol Burnett Show," in which the Jackson kids wore powder blue outfits and sang "Beat Goes On." Fans immediately gushed over the adorable recreation − no matter where they assumed the inspiration originated.
Future and Sienna’s Jackson family ode garnered more than 3,000 retweets and nearly 21,000 likes on Twitter by Wednesday morning.
