  • ‘Glee’ Star Matthew Morrison And
    ‘Glee’ Star Matthew Morrison and Girlfriend Dress as Britney and JT for Halloween By Nic Baird Glee star Matthew Morrison and girlfriend, Renee Puente, chose retro Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears as their couple costume this Halloween, reports UsMagazine.com. Though the celebrity pop duo split ages ago, Morrison and Puente reminisced about the musical media pair during JT’s ‘N Sync days and Britney’s python charming circa 2001. Morrison, who portrays the coach of a high school glee club on TV, paid tribute to these 90s musical icons for his third annual birthday/Halloween party on Sunday. Morrison captured the look with a head and arm bandana, tinted sunglasses, a blousy white shirt, a spiky hooded vest, fingerless gloves and a hands-free microphone. Puente’s outfit recalled the tiny green top and blue hot pants from Britney’s “Slave 4 U” outfit, complete with a fake snake. What are three couples costumes you can wear for Halloween?
