Ellen DeGeneres does not seem like the shy type, but she still seemed a little uncomfortable as the flesh-flashing Nicki Minaj.

Copying the outfit that the rapper wore on The Ellen DeGeneres Show last month, Ellen wore a similar black jacket that is unbuttoned to show her own set of fake boobs.

As you can see in the video, Ellen opened the show with the following comment: “This year I decided to go as something really scary — half naked. Of course, I’m Nicki Minaj. Nicki was on the show a few weeks ago. Her shirt was not. She took my show from a PG rating to a Double D.”

While we have to admit that Ellen looked strikingly similar to the busty blonde, we’re disappointed that the 55-year-old television host did not wear a better copy of Nicki’s Versace heels.

The long wig and leather trousers made the Halloween costume almost perfect, but Ellen forgot that Nicki Minaj is also famous for her crazy footwear collection.

Below, you can see a highlight from Nicki’s appearance on Ellen last month. Nicki Minaj, whose real name is Onika Tanya Maraj, was asked to find exactly where Ellen had sprayed Nicki’s new scent on some hunky guys.
