Pimped Out Costumes

Ruby Rhod (Chris Tucker) The Fifth Element (1997)

Flamboyant, as camp as a Christmas tent and with clothing turned up so loud he needs a megaphone of a voice to be heard over it, Chris Tucker’s space-age Queen is almost the most memorable thing about this film. Almost.

He certainly does a good job of stealing every scene he’s in, thanks in large part to the array of weird and wonderful costume changes, hairstyles, and witty quips.

Huggy Bear (Snoop Dogg) Starsky & Hutch (2004)

For this film adaptation of the classic TV show, Director Todd Philips wasted no time in casting the coolest cat on the planet in a role he was virtually tailor-made for.

As we all know, pimping ain’t easy. But with his outrageously styled matching outfits, jewellery and accessories, Huggy Bear goes a long way to making pimping look fun. Wins this round because, well, who would you rather spend time with?
