Ellen DeGeneres has transformed herself into a long lost Kardashian sister for Halloween– and it’s hilarious.

The comedian debuted her Halloween costume today on the yearly Halloween edition of her popular daytime talk show, Us Weekly reports.
To become “Karla Kardashian,” Ellen donned a low-cut animal print blouse that revealed just enough of her ample cleavage and paired that with long stirrup leggings over grey running shoes. She also wouldn’t be a convincing Kardashian doppelganger if she didn’t have her butt padded, not to mention bathing herself in spray tan before she came out on stage. The long, black wig completed the Kardashian transformation. The only piece that didn’t fit was the oversized reading glasses. Maybe Karla Kardashian is the nerdy sister.
“I bet you’re wondering who I am,” the 57-year-old comedian says in a preview of her Halloween show. “And obviously if you are wondering who I am you didn’t see the latest ad for Keeping Up With The Kardashians .”
Then we see Ellen — or should we say Karla Kardashian — in the new ad for the upcoming season of KUWTK .
“That’s right, I’m the lesser known Kardashian sister, my name is Karla Kardashian with a K. Because we’re known for our double K’s. These are double K’s too by the way,” she quipped, gesturing towards her fake cleavage.
“Since I’m the younger sister, I get all the hand-me-downs,” the comedian goes on to say. “So these are Kim’s Shape-Ups that I’m wearing. This is Khloe’s old blouse. And the booty is all mine.”
Ellen then talked about some of the downsides of being the youngest Kardashian sister and her curious lack of screen time on Keeping Up with the Kardashians .
“I’m a big part of the family, but for some reason I’m always cut out of the show. I understand because they only have 12 reality shows that are on TV 80 hours a week but they didn’t have room for me.”
This isn’t the first time that Ellen DeGeneres has dressed up as a curvy celebrity for Halloween.
In 2013, she dressed up as Nicki Minaj and wore a replica of a very revealing outfit that Nicki wore on a previous visit to The Ellen Degeneres Show .
“Let me start by saying, my eyes are up here,” she said during her monologue at the time, leaving the audience in stitches. “This year, I decided to go as something really scary, half-naked.”
For Halloween 2012, Ellen dressed as Sofia Vergara, a frequent guest on her show who’s also a Cover Girl like Ellen. Sofia was at the show that day and got to see Ellen’s portrayal up close. At first, she didn’t seem to take too kindly to it and started to argue with Ellen in Spanish. But in the end we learned that was all part of the gag.
“I have to say it is like looking in mirror,” Ellen said as she faced off with Sofia.
It’s pretty normal for guests to appear on the Ellen DeGeneres Halloween show in full costume. Today her guests are Josh Duhamel and Ariana Grande.
As this article in USA Today reports, Ellen DeGeneres isn’t just doing parody videos for Halloween. She’s done a hilarious bit on the video for Adele’s new song, “Hello”
“Adele and I are good friends, and a lot of people don’t realize her new song is based on a conversation that we had.”
Through some very clever editing, she inserts herself into the video for “Hello,” which currently has close to 150 million views on YouTube. The whole thing becomes a hilariously awkward conversation via an ancient looking “cell-phone.”
The Ellen DeGeneres Halloween show next airs today at 4 p.m. on local NBC affiliates.
