Naya Rivera: This Halloween’s Best-Costumed Latina Celebrity

Posted on October 29, 2013 by Tom Castaneda

It’s true… Halloween isn’t just for the little ones… But don’t take our word for it.

Here’s a look at some of the haute-est costumes worn this year by Hispanic celebrities, including this year’s best-dressed Latina Naya Rivera.

Naya Rivera

Where in the world? Glee starlet and “Sorry” singer Naya Rivera is red hot in her sexed-up Carmen Sandiego costume, complete with knee-high black latex boots and red latex body suit and red trench coat.

The 26-year-old half-Puerto Rican actress/singer attended Kate Hudson‘s Halloween bash on Saturday, October 27, 2013 in the not-for-G-audiences outfit.

Joan Smalls
Move over Lady Gaga! There’s a new Mother Monster… And her name is Joan Smalls.

“This little Monster is ready to wreak some Havoc,” declared the 25-year-old Puerto Rican supermodel on her Instagram account.

Smalls posted the photo before heading to the Byrne Notice and Emerson Sick Halloween Party in New York.

Jessica Alba
Former Dark Angel star Jessica Alba is absolutely witchin’ in her Halloween costume. The 32-year-old half-Mexican American actress dressed up as Cher’s character from the original Witches of Eastwick.

Alba was joined by her friends in the photo taken during a bewitching weekend of Halloween fun.

Alessandra Ambrosio
There’s no playing with The Queen of Hearts, unless she looks like Alessandra Ambrosio. The 32-year-old Victoria’s Secret model took a trip down the rabbit hole for her Halloween costume.

Ambrosio dressed as a sexy Queen of Hearts while attending a party in Beverly Hills, complete with a tiny black and red dress, knee-high stockings and a red wig with a crown on top as she partied with her pals, who carried on the Alice in Wonderland heme as the Cheshire Cat and the White Rabbit.

Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi
There’s no place like home for former Jersey Shore star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, her fiance Jionni Lavalle and their adorable son Lorenzo Lavalle.

The family celebrated Halloween by dressing up as characters from The Wizard of Oz on October 24, 2013, in Whippany, New Jersey.

The reality star wore pigtails, a blue and white dress and sparkly ruby shoes as Dorothy, while her fiance was the scarecrow and little Lorenzo dressed as the Cowardly Lion in a tan and orange onesie.

Nicole Rich
Don’t give Nicole Richie flap for her Halloween costume! The 32-year-old half-Mexican American Fashion Star mentor and fashionista arrived at the Who What Wear and Cadillac 50 Most Fashionable Women Of 2013 event dressed as a sexy, flapper kitty at The London Hotel on October 24, 2013 in West Hollywood.

Richie donned lace cat ears and a sexy black dress while bringing a touch of couture, to the all-star event.

Rico Rodriguez
Dead man walking! Modern Family star Rico Rodriguez arrived at the Hub Network‘s First Annual Halloween Bash at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California dressed as a zombie on October 20, 2013.

Fergie and Josh Duhamel
It’s hard to believe Fergie recently gave birth to her first child. The 38-year-old part-Mexican American singer and Black Eyed Peas member dressed as Elvira, Mistress of the Dark while her husband Josh Duhamel was a sight for sore eyes as Riff Raff from The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

The new parents attended Kate Hudson’s annual Halloween party on October 27, 2013.

Snooki and JWoww
It’s red, white and haute! Snooki and JWoww dressed as the Red Witch and White Witch from Alice in Wonderland on October 25, 2013 for the Night of the Living Drag event.
