As a huge movie fan, I love seeing how people get creative with Halloween! This year, Janelle Monáe absolutely blew me away on The Jennifer Hudson Show. She didn’t just dress as a Halloween character, she brilliantly mashed up Michael Myers with the live-action Cat in the Hat – yes, that Cat in the Hat! It was genuinely terrifying. Forget the cheerful Dr. Seuss character; Monáe’s version, with its creepy fur, independently moving tail, and ghostly makeup, felt like something straight out of a horror film, more like ‘The Babadook’ than anything else. It was a truly inspired and spooky costume!
Janelle Monáe made the costume even more impressive by staying in character – as the mischievous feline god – throughout the entire interview. She greeted everyone with a playful, over-the-top voice, somewhere between Amy Sedaris and Barney, saying, “Hello, children! Hello, grown folk! I love you!” When the interviewer tried to ask about the costume, Monáe playfully insisted she was simply being herself. Even when presented with photos of her dressed as E.T. from the previous year (which she admitted was even more frightening), Monáe, still in character as the cat, explained in a singsong voice that she could only appear on the show if Janelle Monáe allowed her to use her body.

It’s interesting how Dr. Seuss used characters to inspire a love of reading, because this feels like a deliberately unsettling campaign, possibly connected to Linda McMahon’s influence on education. It plays on a fear of reading, imagining the mischievous Cat in the Hat taking control, even possessing you. The delay of the Bill Hader-starring Cat in the Hat movie could even be due to concerns about this dark take on the character. The imagery suggests a terrifying journey, linking the story to a frightening, otherworldly experience. Ultimately, it’s a clever and committed performance, embracing the spirit of Halloween and cleverly promoting a potential revival of Seuss’s work.
