Holy Halloween, Batman

We had a very early eye-opener on Halloween at the "Today" show, where Matt Lauer and Al Roker dressed as Batman and Robin. Between takes, when the cameras weren't rolling, Katie Couric played up her Marilyn Monroe costume, flirting suggestively with Matt. Al Roker quipped, "It's a good thing he has a c--k plate on that costume." Ann Curry, as Audrey Hepburn, was too much of a lady to react.

That evening we hit Bette Midler's annual Hulaween Ball, which doubled as her 60th birthday party and was of epic proportions. Dressed as a rose, Bette received birthday greetings from costumed guests including Martha Stewart, Glenn Close, Eartha Kitt, Martin Short, and Sting and Trudie Styler. A devilishly attired Elton John entertained the crowd. Mariah Carey said she didn't don a costume thanks to the unflattering press coverage of the bridal getup she wore last year.

Some things stay the same, and even after giving birth and getting married this year, Heidi Klum still threw her Halloween bash. Seal came later than Heidi, dressed as a cop, and mingled with Zac Posen, Damon Dash and the tanned Valentino.
