Saweetie Recreates Destiny's Child 'Bootylicious' Video For Halloween
Saweetie isn’t playing around this Halloween. She got a head-start on everyone heading into Halloweekend by dressing up on Thursday night (October 29) as every member of Destiny’s Child when recreating the trio’s spicy “Bootylicious” video.
The “My Type” rhymer donned different colored wigs and three pink outfits to match Michelle Williams, Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland’s poses from 2001’s “Bootylicious” cover art in what she’s dubbing as Saweetaween.
“I don’t think you ready for this jelly!” she teased.

The music video imitation is what really takes the costume over the top. Thanks to some great editing, three different Saweeties strut across the pink-flavored screen nailing every look with the all-too-familiar Stevie Nicks guitar riffs playing in the background.

This isn’t Saweetie’s first costume of the year, as she already got started earlier in the week dressing up as drag queen Ru Paul. Expect more Halloween heat from the Bay Area rapper with Saweetaween well underway. Could she have another couple’s costume with her boo Quavo up her sleeve?
Saweetie’s welcomed return to music came in the form of the bouncy “Back to the Streets” featuring Jhené Aiko last week. Aiko and Saweetie’s third official collab features co-production from legendary beat maestro Timbaland.
