Charli D’Amelio has stunned fans with her Snow White cosplay for Halloween this year, resulting in her being hailed as a “princess.”

While Halloween isn’t officially until the 31st, many are celebrating the spooky holiday early to cash in on weekend festivities.

Celebrities are no exception; social media is already awash with costumes as big names across the globe jump online to show off their outfits.

Amongst those embracing Halloween is TikTok star Charli D’Amelio, who took to Instagram to share her stunning Snow White cosplay — and her fans have consequently crowned her as a Disney “princess.”

Sporting Snow White’s iconic dress from Disney’s 1938 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Charli completed the look with a long black wig, red heels, and even a little bird prop.

Her take on Disney’s first-ever princess has been well received, the Instagram post garnering already over 189,000 likes in just an hour.

Fans took to her comment section to share their excitement over the cosplay, calling Charli the “prettiest princess” they have ever seen.

“Petition for [Charli] to play snow white in the Disney remake,” one person wrote. Another said, “No matter what costume and outfit [she] wears, everything always looks perfect.”

Charli also showed off her Snow White cosplay with two videos on TikTok, where the reception was equally positive.

One excited viewer commented, “OMG I can’t breathe, she looks so beautiful,”

While Charli won’t be starring as the lead in Disney’s latest live-action remake, at least fans were given a glimpse of her potential as the iconic Princess this Halloween season. Be sure to check out all the latest entertainment news on our page here.

A cosplay shared by graciethecosplaylass is merging Black Cat and Venom together in one terrifying costume with bite.

Pretty much everyone gets a symbiote in Marvel Comics these days. The days of there only being a handful of symbiotes are long behind us, as a bevy of symbiotes and hosts populate the universe.

This also means there are more opportunities than ever for fans to cherry-pick their favorite symbiote character. Be it reading comics, picking up games, or creating fan art, there are so many options to choose from now.

For cosplayers, the possibilities are all but endless. One cosplayer has now shown off an exciting – and terrifying – take on one of Spider-Man’s closest allies and greatest villains united.

Venomized Black Cat cosplay is stunning – and toothy

In a post shared on her Instagram, cosplayer Gracie McClung is showing off her venomized Black Cat. It’s a stunning cosplay that has some teeth to it.

No, there are literally teeth. Dozens of handmade teeth adorn the arms and chest of the costume, making up elements that are typically fur on the Black Cat costume. In a reel shared to her page, Gracie showed off the painstaking process of making each tooth, consisting of triangles being cut, warped and formed under heat.

The rest of the cosplay is incredibly detailed, a black body suit with the classic black suit logo and the trademark white veins that modern Venom incarnations don. A simple domino mask with a similar Venom flourish caps off the outfit.

There is a comic basis for the suit, though it’s not canon to the story. The design is based on an Ariel Diaz variant cover for 2022’s The Amazing Spider-Man #29. Black Cat does wind up wearing the Venom symbiote on Earth-258, as seen in Extreme Venomverse #2, where she bonds with the symbiote after Spider-Man separates from it in the original story.

Black Cat also gets a symbiote in the 2008 video game Spider-Man: Web of Shadows, where she’s a potential endgame partner for Spider-Man, should players choose to go the evil route.

Fitness influencer LeanBeefPatty showed off her very own Malevola cosplay after the developers behind Dispatch revealed that she influenced the character’s physique.

Dispatch released in late 2025 to critical acclaim, following former superhero Robert Robertson as he takes a job at SDN dispatching local heroes to save the day from disaster in Torrence, CA.

AdHoc Studio’s debut title became an instant smash hit thanks to its engaging narrative, decision-based gameplay, and its colorful cast of characters, several of which were voiced by notable gaming influencers like JackSepticEye, MoistCritikal, and Alanah Pearce.

It turns out that these weren’t the only influencers who made an impact on the project. Dispatch’s art director Derek Stratton admitted that fitness creator LeanBeefPatty’s chiseled physique, along with that iconic Cindy Crawford Pepsi commercial from the early 90s, served as major inspirations for Malevola’s design.

“She is Cindy Crawford from that commercial meets that sort of hot rod demon lady, and the body type of LeanBeefPatty, who is an influencer who’s like, ripped,” he told IGN in November.

LeanBeefPatty’s Malevola cosplay goes viral

Come mid-December, LeanBeefPatty publicly thanked the Dispatch devs for using her as reference for Malevola with a cosplay of the character, which she posted to Instagram to the tune of 340K likes.

“What a huge honor to be referenced in the character creation of Malevola from Dispatch! (Along with Cindy Crawford),” she wrote. Thank you so much, truly! Please forgive my mildly scuffed semi closet cosplay. Hopefully, I can get a bit of grace in that aspect.”

Fans flooded the comments section to congratulate the influencer and gush over her striking depiction of the character. Even prolific voice actor Matt Mercer chimed in, writing, “Oh my goodness, this is INCREDIBLE!”

“The circle is complete. You have cosplayed a character that’s based off of you. The planets are aligned, the beacons are lit,” another joked.

Yet another tagged Alanah Pearce, the voice of Malevola, asking, “This u?” The games writer and streamer jokingly replied, “Yeah, actually.”

Given that Malevola was basically based on LeanBeefPatty’s appearance, it’s safe to say this is one of the most accurate cosplays we’ve ever seen — minus the height, of course. (Malevola is 6 feet, 6.6 inches tall in the game, while Patty, a former gymnast, stands at 5 feet 2 inches.)

Dispatch fans won’t have to wait long for more news on the game, either, as developers recently teased plans for a possible second season in an interview with Eurogamer.

Toyota and Lexus may have just shelved one of the most exciting electric vehicle concepts shown in recent years. According to reports from Automotive News and Nikkei Asia, Toyota has halted development of the next-generation Lexus EV that was expected to be based on the futuristic LF-ZC concept.

For EV enthusiasts and Lexus fans, the news is particularly disappointing because the LF-ZC represented one of the clearest signs that Lexus was finally preparing to make a serious leap into the premium electric future.

One of Lexus’ most ambitious EV projects has reportedly been paused

The Lexus LF-ZC concept was first revealed in late 2023 as part of Toyota’s next-generation EV strategy. The sleek fastback sedan featured aggressive aerodynamic styling, an ultra-modern cabin, steer-by-wire technology, and promises of significantly improved battery efficiency and range.

Toyota had originally planned to launch a production version around 2026 as one of the brand’s most advanced EVs yet. The vehicle was also expected to introduce several next-generation manufacturing technologies, including giga-casting and advanced software-driven architecture.

Now, however, reports suggest the automaker has suspended development of the project while reassessing EV demand, production priorities, and broader market conditions. Toyota reportedly told suppliers that the LF-ZC-based EV program was being halted while the company reevaluates future plans. According to Automotive News, Toyota cited fluctuations in EV demand and the workload tied to vehicle planning and manufacturing as key reasons behind the decision.

The move comes during a complicated moment for the global EV industry. While electric vehicle adoption continues growing overall, several automakers have recently slowed or delayed EV expansion plans amid softer-than-expected demand growth in some markets, rising production costs, and uncertainty around charging infrastructure.

Why this matters

The cancellation or delay matters because the LF-ZC was not just another concept car. It represented Lexus’ attempt to redefine itself for the electric era.

Compared to Lexus’ current EV lineup, which has often been criticized for being conservative or late compared to rivals, the LF-ZC looked genuinely futuristic. It promised longer range, lighter construction, more efficient batteries, and software-focused features designed to compete directly against premium EV brands.

The decision also reinforces Toyota’s much more cautious approach toward full electrification compared to companies like Tesla, BYD, and even traditional rivals rapidly expanding EV lineups. Toyota has consistently argued that hybrids, plug-in hybrids, hydrogen, and EVs should coexist rather than pushing aggressively toward fully electric vehicles alone.

What happens next

Toyota has not officially killed the LF-ZC entirely, meaning the project could still return later in revised form. The company is still expected to continue developing next-generation EV technologies, including solid-state batteries and new software platforms for future Lexus vehicles.

But for now, one of the most visually striking and technologically ambitious Lexus EVs appears stuck in limbo. And honestly, that is frustrating. Because in a market increasingly crowded with similar-looking electric crossovers, the LF-ZC actually felt bold, futuristic, and different – exactly the kind of EV many enthusiasts hoped Lexus would finally build.
