Ellen DeGeneres is paying homage to one of her famous guests this year, dressing as Nicki Minaj for Halloween. The daytime talk show host wore the same outfit Minaj wore during an appearance recently, which showed off her famous assets.

Wearing a long blonde wig, DeGeneres debuted the look on Twitter ahead of the episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show that airs Thursday.

“Let me start by saying my eyes are up here," she told the audience, Us Weekly reports. "This year I decided to go as something really scary -- half naked."

She added, “Of course, I'm Nicki Minaj. Nicki was on the show a few weeks ago and her shirt was not. She took our show from PG to double D."

Minaj wore an all-black ensemble that showed off some major cleavage while she was on the show. She wore a black jacket but only buttoned the first button.

"I got the whole look down. I even have the same shoes on. I think I do -- I can't see my feet -- but I think I do," DeGeneres said. "I normally don't wear things this sexy, but when you dress as Nicki Minaj you have to. So here are my boom booms and my super bass.”

Minaj approved of the costume, tweeting, “I didn't know Ellen could get any sexier.”
