Rin from Shelter
In the music video for the Porter Robinson single Shelter, Rin is a teenage girl who finds herself alone in the world. It’s revealed that a planetary object was on a collision course with planet Earth, and her scientist father labored for years to build a spacecraft for her to survive, forever plugged into the spacecraft’s simulation to experience life.
Freddie Mercury from Live Aid
In 1985, Queen performed at Live Aid, an event organised by Sir Bob Geldof to raise funds for the Ethiopian famine disaster. In front of 72,000 people in Wembley Stadium, London, frontman Freddie Mercury put on a legendary performance for all time.

Valerie Sassyfras
Valerie Sassyfras is a New Orleans musician who hit mainstream attention when her performance of “Girls Night Out” was featured on the Ellen DeGeneres Show. She sings lines like “I’m horny and I’m lazy” while bending over and clutching her behind. It’s only when the YouTube video pans the crowd that we realize she’s performing in a backyard for a children’s party.
Billie Eilish Yellow Outfit from Bad Guy
In the music video for Bad Guy, Billie Eilish smashes through the backdrop in an all-yellow outfit with hoodie and baggy cargo pants. Along with removing her Invisalign and wearing a snorkeling mask, this outfit reflects her goofy streetwear style that doesn’t take itself too seriously. You pay the price for the authentic pieces from Reserved Essential or opt for the more attainable alternatives… we’ve listed both.
Shy Ronnie
In the Saturday Night Live digital shorts “Shy Ronnie” and “Shy Ronnie 2: Ronnie & Clyde”, Shy Ronnie (Andy Samberg) is an overly shy character who duos with Clyde (played by Rihanna). After Rihanna sings the hook and it’s time for Ronnie to rap, he finds himself too awkward to perform, instead whispering into the mic, wetting his pants, and letting out an awkward haHAA laugh that has since become a meme and Twitch emote. For this costume, use the fake blood for his left foot, where he accidentally shoots himself while robbing a bank.
Clyde from Ronnie & Clyde
In the Lonely Island follow-up to Shy Ronnie, Shy Ronnie 2: Ronnie & Clyde, Clyde (played by Rihanna) is a 1920s gangster who robs a bank with Shy Ronnie. Maybe not the best choice of criminal accomplice or musical partner ever, as Shy Ronnie shoots himself in the foot and whispers his commands to the hostages. Supply your own Jon Hamm to complete the look.
Jeff from The Wiggles
Jeff Fatt is the original Purple Wiggle from the Wiggles, a children’s music group hailing from New South Wales, Australia. They’ve achieved wide acclaim and multi-platinum status, with their music being played in preschools all over the world. Jeff is the original purple Wiggle who plays the piano and accordion and loves to fall asleep. He tends to fall asleep a lot, which causes the others to call out “WAKE UP JEFF!”, and that causes Jeff to jump up and down and do all sorts of silly things.
David Bowie from Life on Mars
In the music video for the 1971 single “Life on Mars”, glam rock star David Bowie is dressed in a turquoise “ice-blue” designer suit and heavy makeup. This unique look presents yet another facet of Bowie alongside his personas Ziggy Stardust and the Thin White Duke.
