Diddy Dressed Up As Heath Ledger's Joker For Halloween—And Someone Give This Man An Oscar

Diddy Dressed Up As Heath Ledger's Joker For Halloween—And Someone Give This Man An Oscar

The rapper shared his transformation into the 'Dark Knight' villain on Instagram.

If you were out and about dressed to the nines for Halloween this weekend, you certainly weren't alone--lots of Hollywood stars got into the fun as well, including rapper and music mogul Diddy.

And his costume was so on point he left many people in disbelief.


Diddy went as late actor Heath Ledger's rendition of Joker in the 2008 Christopher Nolan film The Dark Knight, and the look, along with Diddy's impression of Ledger's take on the character, was so spot on some are calling for him to play the Joker in the future.

Diddy posted the look on his Instagram, where it is sure to be up there with the greatest celeb Halloween looks of all time.

See his post below.

Okay, all due respect to Ledger's Joker-playing successors like actors Jared Leto and Joaquin Phoenix, but it's time to hand over the mantle to Diddy, cuz this is uncanny!

From the lime-green wig and matching green-and-purple suit, to the unhinged make-up and utterly deranged speech and body language, Diddy all but disappeared into the character of the Clown Prince of Crime.

It kind of makes you wonder if the Academy should start a new Oscar category for Best Halloween Costume or something. Especially since Diddy seems to have stayed in character all night while he was partying this weekend—even while crossing paths with fellow music luminary Tyler the Creator.

Diddy also posted a video giving a glimpse into the painstaking transformation he endured in the hair and make-up chair to become the iconic Batman villain.

Of course there's nothing the Academy loves more than a grueling physical transformation for a role, so all the more reason Diddy should join the ranks of Oscar-winning make-up jobs.

Naturally, people on the internet loved Diddy's costume and performance... even if they found it ever so slightly unnerving.










Diddy isn't exactly a stranger to acting in the first place--he shared the screen with greats like Phylicia Rashad and Audra MacDonald back in the TV movie adaption of Raisin in the Sun--so a turn as Joker just might be the next right career move.

Musk Offers Thinly-Veiled Threat After Trump Tells Reporters He's Mulling Over Deporting Him

Billionaire Elon Musk offered a thinly-veiled threat to President Donald Trump after Trump told reporters he is mulling over deporting him amid their feud over the president's One Big Beautiful Bill, which Musk opposes because the package's $3 trillion price tag is diametrically opposed to his prior efforts to slash federal spending.

The bill, Republicans say, will pay for itself in large part due to cuts to healthcare and food assistance programs that Vice President JD Vance has described as "immaterial." But Musk earlier said he will work to unseat any Republicans who've supported "the biggest debt increase in history."

JD Vance Gets Perfectly Shamed After Claiming Medicaid Cuts In Budget Bill Are 'Immaterial'

Critics slammed Vice President JD Vance after he claimed that the "minutiae of the Medicaid policy" in President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill," are "immaterial" to the millions of Americans who would lose their healthcare coverage if it were to become law.

According to The Washington Post, the bill "includes the biggest reduction of funding for the federal safety net since at least the 1990s, targeting more than $1 trillion in social spending." WaPo noted that the $3 trillion package "partially pays for its large price tag by slashing spending on Medicaid and food stamps SNAP), which congressional Republicans maintain are rife with fraud."
