There is no word yet on how Nicki Minaj reacted to Ellen’s fantastic costume, though we hope she took it in good spirits. There have been conflicting stories about how Nicki responded to Miley Cyrus’s outfit last year.

Perhaps Ellen DeGeneres should copy this outfit on Halloween next year? While we have not identified it, we doubt the black gold-chain-printed jumpsuit is part of Nicki’s Kmart clothing collection.

Can you help us identify Nicki’s jumpsuit? Having seen them before, we quickly recognized her booties as a design by Giuseppe Zanotti.

Khloé Kardashian has been spotted wearing the same booties as Nicki Minaj. She styled them with a plaid jumpsuit by Theory and a white long-sleeved top paired with tattered jeans.
