Lady Gaga says “lots of latex” is the key to a good Halloween costume.

The ‘Poker Face’ singer – famed for her eccentric outfits – believes people should go all-out when it comes to transforming themselves for the spooky festival.

When asked the essential items for a good costume, she said: “Wigs, purple shampoo and high heels. Lots of latex.”

Although Gaga usually loves to dress up, she is opting not to don a Halloween outfit because so many people have said they are dressing as her, she thinks it will give her the chance to have a peaceful evening.

She explained: “I’m pretty excited about going out and not dressing up, because I heard that a lot of people are dressing like me. I should do some kind of, like, ‘Where’s Waldo?’ competition? Like ‘Where’s Gaga?’

“I’m just gonna not dress up, because I have been unable to just go out and have, like, a good hammered evening out, maybe face-down somewhere in a bar.”
