Sarah Palin, Amy Winehouse and Elliot Spitzer lead the pack of top ten costumes at Ricky's
Filed under: Get the Look
Okay, so the Halloween mega-store, Ricky's NYC, isn't exactly saying that the costumes are based on these celebrities, but it doesn't take a scientist to figure it out.

Ditto for the jet black beehive and ultra short dress of "Rehab Queen" costume, which is obviously singer, Amy Winehouse.

The cash gift was a present from his friend and mentor, fellow rapper, Baby aka Birdman. Forget living above the law, it looks like rappers are living above the economic meltdown.
