Although Halloween seemed tamer this year, we still managed to round up Hollywood’s best dressed. It’s that time of the year when freakish suits and outlandish getups get our thumbs up. Tell us which costume you loved best.

Paris Hilton downs a few drinks and does a cancan around Tinseltown.

Mariah Carey and hubby Nick Cannon arrive at a New York party dressed in matching angel costumes.

Brentwood—Kate Beckinsale as Adam Ant, husband Len Wiseman as Eric Draven from The Crow, and daughter Lily as a magician.

Toy Story—Gwen Stafani-Rossdale takes the whole family for some Halloween fun. She goes as Jesse the Cowgirl with her dinosaur-clad tots Kingston and Zuma. Boo to hubby Gavin Rossdale, who would’ve made a cool Woody.

Emile Hirsch takes off from Never Never Land and heads off to Club XIV.

Eliza Dushku and boyfriend Rick Fox dress up like a couple of zombie gangsters for a Halloween party at Club XIV.

Newlyweds Khloe Kardashian and husband Lamar Odom dress up like caped crusaders Batman and Catwoman.

Jordin Sparks leaves Heidi Klum’s Halloween party at Voyeur in Los Angeles as a disheveled Dorothy from Wizard of Oz. Holding her hand is boyfriend Steph Jones.

Jessica Alba goes as Dora the Explorer, while her beau Cash Warren (not pictured) comes as Diego.

Star Wars was the theme on NBC’s Today Show; Anne Curry as Darth Vadar, Matt Lauer as Luke Skywalker, Natalie Morales as Queen Padma Amidala, Hoda Kotb as Yoda, Meredith Vieira as Princess Leia, Kathy Lee Gifford as C3PO and Al Roker as Han Solo.

“You smell a little like S’mores,” says Ellen Degeneres to Mariah Carey, of the new perfume that she’s marketing.

Uh, is that good or bad? On the one hand, you want to smell yummy. On the other hand, most of us want to come off a little more sophisticated than kids on a camping trip. 

“My [signature scent] of course, is gin and Marlboros,” jokes DeGeneres.

After arriving at San Juan, Puerto Rico earlier this week in a very flashy outfit, Jennifer Lopez went with a more casual number as she made her way to a press junket for upcoming film El Cantante.

Lopez arrived with rodent-faced hubby Marc Anthony in New York on Wednesday to set out for more promo for their latest work.  Is it just me, or is J.Lo kinda pulling a Mariah Carey with that outfit?

You know, that’s what I need, a personal umbrella holder.  Must be nice to get out of the rain & still hold on to your Gucci bag & Starbucks.

Singer Mariah Carey was seen with her own umbrella holder by her side as she takes cover in Paris while arriving at the front door of the Hôtel de Crillon on Wednesday.

Mariah doesn’t seem to age, does she?  But then again, if we got up a little closer, we would probably start seeing beyond the inch-thick makeup…

Mariah Carey decided to spring for the March edition of Playboy magazine & boy has she told all this time.  From Carey’s 2001 breakdown to her Eminem dating drama, Mariah spread out the truth (& her legs) to Playboy.  Enjoy these little snippets, thanks to Us Weekly.

On Mariah’s 2002 Breakdown:

“What happened was that people made a big deal of when my old publicist pulled the microphone out of my hand because I was venting about Howard Stern. Howard Stern had said a lot of mean stuff about me that morning, as he does about everybody every morning, and I think it really got to me. So I gained five pounds. It’s not the end of the freakin’ world. But I was exhausted, and I did collapse later. Then everybody blew it out of proportion.â€�

On Waiting for an Eminem Apology:

“Something is clearly askew with him, and I’m not quite sure what it is. I just heard something else he recently said about me. I’m curious as to why he’s so obsessed with me. I never got an apology letter, by the way; I don’t know what they’re talking about. Then again, I wasn’t exactly searching my mailbox for it.”

On American Idol:

I know everybody thinks I’m the poster child for American Idol, but I was really shy when I first came out as a performer….Randy Jackson of American Idol has worked with me since my first record. I’ve known him for so long, and now he’s a huge star. It’s just weird to me. We’ll get mobbed walking down the street. You know how the band is introduced at a show? My little joke used to be that he was Michael Jackson’s brother, and the crowd would believe me and go crazy.

On Mariah’s Wardrobe Malfunctions:

Oh please, there have been so many. On this tour there was a really bad malfunction… It was this little top with a hook and eye on the front. It was a nightmare. The top was so tight that night because we girls have moments when the top might be tighter, but I caught it, and that’s how you know a pro.

On Her Horrendous Movie, Glitter:

I try to avoid it. Actually, I don’t mind it. There are moments that make me laugh, and I don’t care…. Glitter was such a bomb, but no one ever pointed out that it came out around September 11, 2001.

You tell me- What else should Mariah Carey have come clean on in the March issue of Playboy?

Thanks to Us Weekly for the fabulous images.
