Idolator’s Halloween Pop Star Costume Winner (PHOTOS)

This Halloween was quite the treat here at Idolator. We offered up the prize of a $50 iTunes gift card to the best pop star-inspired costume, and you all accepted the challenge with creativity and pizazz like we’ve never seen. It was incredibly hard to choose a winner — we nearly ate through our entire candy-filled plastic Jack-O-Lantern debating — but we finally picked our favorite get-up. Jump below to see the winning costume, and the stiff competition they had.

WINNER: Jonathan C. (@jc_totalportal_) and his girlfriend dressed up as Lady Gaga and her skeletal man-friend from the “Born This Way” video. The couple’s makeup took a whopping six hours to do! Check out those cheekbones!

Though Jonathan and his costumed partner-in-crime will be receiving the prize, we had to acknowledge one entrant as our runner-up: ladies, contain your shaking and crying for Justin Biebfur:

Thanks to Kristen (and her dog Pokerface) for sending in this pic of her pooch. Your prize is recognition on Idolator, and the reassurance that no one will be asking your dog to take a paternity test.

Thanks again to everyone who entered, you made our October 31 hilarious and memorable. Be sure to check out our gallery of the 10 best costumes we received.
