Chanel West Coast is one cool cat!

The "Ridiculousness" star gave fans a sneak peek at her costume for the upcoming Halloween episode on Friday, August 6. Chanel dressed up as former "DWTS" contestant and "Tiger King" documentary star Carole Baskin. Her costume was spot on and featured Carole's signature flower tiara and loose-fitting silk shirt. Plus, she added a stuffed tiger to really sell the look. The goofy beauty danced her way down the "Ridiculousness" set in between segments.

"Shooting our Halloween episode today 😂🐯🐾 #CaroleBaskin #ridiculousness," Chanel wrote alongside the fun video.

Even though it's the beginning of August, the MTV production is quickly working to get the holiday episode in the can so the show's editors can cut it for air in October (that's how tv and movie magic works). No word yet on what Rob Dyrdek and Steelo Brim dressed up as.

Tiger Queen

The rapper is apparently a huge fan of the popular Netflix documentary and the internet craziness following the premiere. Last April, she paid tribute to the viral gods when she channeled Joe Exotic for her original version of the Carole Baskin challenge. Luckily for her fans, her look didn't resemble the jailed documentary star at all. In fact, she made do with the wrong type of animal print.

"I didn’t have any tiger print clothing but I did have a small Lion 😂🦁🤷🏼‍♀️ #PomeranianQueen#JoeExotic#TigerKing#JoeExoticChallenge#ChanelExotic," she jokingly captioned her video at the time.

It's kind of a cool coincidence that she wore a gorgeous tiger-striped dress to the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards... she's definitely earned her stripes!

Back To Work

Despite declaring that she just wants to "travel the world 🌎😍," she returned from her fun-filled vacation in Tulum, Mexico, last week, just in time to shoot more episodes of the popular show. "Set life...season ?...I dunno I lost count 😂🤷🏼‍♀️🎬🎥," she joked on social media. "Ridiculousness" is currently filming its 21st season and first aired in 2011. It all adds up to hundreds of contagious laughs from the rapper, and we hope they keep coming!
