There’s a saying that imitation is the highest form of flattery, and celebrities are no exception to this rule. Whether it’s dressing up to strut the red carpet or for Halloween, these celebs nailed these iconic looks from their fellow celebrities.
Bright Side has found some of the most uncanny looks that celebrities created that paid tribute to other celebrities.
1. Adele as Dolly Parton
Adele has never been shy when it comes to people she admires, and that includes Dolly Parton. She posted a photo of her dressed in a full Dolly ensemble referring to her as “a hero of my life.” Dolly responded lovingly a few days later on Twitter.
2. Saweetie as Destiny’s Child
Are you ready for this jelly? Filipino-American rapper Saweetie transformed into all 3 members of Destiny’s Child for Halloween giving a nod to the group’s “Bootylicious” cover photo.
3. Kourtney Kardashian as Ariana Grande
The eldest Kardashian paid tribute to Ariana Grande’s outfit worn on the singer’s guest appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Khloe nailed it from the iconic ponytail to the pink dress and the thigh-high boots.
4. Anne Marie as Billie Eilish
Billie Eilish may have found her doppelgänger in fellow artist Anne-Marie as the latter showed up for a Halloween party in an almost identical green outfit complete with a leg cast.
5. Kylie Jenner as Christina Aguilera
Kylie Jenner recreated Christina Aguilera’s iconic Dirrty chaps, bikini top, and hair highlights for Halloween and none other than Xtina herself approved.
6. Jason Momoa as Elvis Presley

7. Katy Perry and Riff Raff as Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake
Who could forget the denim on denim look that the then “It Couple” Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake wore at the 2001 American Music Awards? It was so iconic that 13 years later, Riff Raff and Katy Perry paid tribute to the pair’s iconic outfit at the 2014 Video Music Awards.
8. Bretman Rock as Aaliyah
The late R&B princess Aaliyah is no stranger to stunning red carpet looks. So it’s no surprise that Filipino-American influencer and MTV reality star Bretman Rock would also don the same exact Roberto Cavalli dress that Aaliyah wore at the 2001 MTV Music Awards.
9. Zendaya as Aaliyah
Just like Bretman Rock, Zendaya is one of those stars that has the swagger of Aaliyah and her outfit in 2013 is proof of that. From the hair, baggy-style jeans, and the Tommy Hilfiger swag, Zendaya nailed this tribute to the one and only Princess of R&B.
10. Tyra Banks as Britney Spears
Supermodel Tyra Banks honored Britney Spears using her Baby One More Time school girl ensemble for a Dancing With The Stars’ Britney Night episode. While Tyra gave the iconic outfit her own twist, she made sure to nail down the details from the pompom pigtails to the skirt and grey cardigan.
