Happy Halloween! The day has yet again arrived when impersonating your favorite childhood characters becomes feasible, and just for the night, you can live out your princess, pirate or superhero dreams. Or, if you’re Jasmine Tookes and Kelsey Merritt, your dreams of bringing the cast of Coyote Ugly to life.

The pair took on the roles portrayed by Tyra Banks and Bridget Moynahan, respectively, bringing their characters from the 2000 drama to life. Tookes, 32, sported a black shimmery corset top and a pair of straight black leather pants, which she paired with an oversized black leather jacket, a pair of pointed high heeled boots and a silver belt buckle. Merritt, 27, likewise wore black leather pants and boots, which she paired with a black bralette hemmed with fringe and a similar silver belt buckle.

Banks took to Instagram to voice her support for the supermodel’s impersonation of her character, Zöe, and Merritt’s embodiment of Moynahan’s Rachel.

“Coyote Ugly in the Halloween House! @jastookes serving up Coyote TyTy lookin’ hotter than hot! And shout out to @kelseymerritt who I know is making @bridgetmoynahan super proud! ‘Pour some Sugar on’ both of these babes! TyTy approves!!!! 💛,” Banks captioned a carousel of photos she shared of Tookes and Merritt.

“🥺 OMG. The queen!! Loved recreating your iconic look 🥰🥰🥰,” Tookes wrote in the comment section.

“Best movie ever! So happy you love it !! 🥰❤️,” Merritt added.

With a stamp of approval from Banks herself, the pair of models might be on their way to securing our nod for the best costume duo this year. The jury is still out.
