Psy performs at Rehab's final Party Of The Year at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, on Oct. 21, 2012.
What you’ll need:
- Dapper tuxedo, in black or powder blue
- Thierry Lasry “Variety” sunglasses
- Gallon-size tub of hair gel
- Perfected invisible horse dance
- Two women, one for each arm (preferably Asian)
- Minimal knowledge of the Korean language (Hint: say GAHNG-nahm, not GAYNG-nam)
This Halloween, you, too, can sport the style of Seoul’s trendiest and most materialistic neighborhood popularized by K-pop star Psy in his viral sensation “Gangnam Style.” Sure, dropping $450 on sunglasses might make a temporary dent in your wallet, but racking up credit card debt will only add to the credibility of your costume. Gangnam style is one of flash and opulence, after all, regardless of actual status. Slick back your hair with enough gel to ensure a concrete-like hold on your locks. It should be able to stay perfectly coiffed through whatever the night sends your way — after all, Psy was able to keep his in place through an explosion, a few hours at the sauna and a windstorm of trash and snow — and hang your best female friends on each arm. Just be sure to brush up on your pronunciation before you leave: Nothing says Gangnam wannabe more than “Oppan GAYNG-nam style!” Then you’ll be set to tear up the dance floor all night, atop your invisible horse.
