Heidi Klum stocks up on decorations for her Halloween bash

She’s the reigning Queen of Halloween, but she admitted to Ellen that she needed to work harder this year to retain that crown. 

On Monday, the day before sitting down with Ellen DeGeneres to tease out some details about her next costume for the spooky holiday, the 44-year-old America’s Got Talent host was shopping for scary decorations in Los Angeles.

She wasn’t kidding around when she told the talk show host: ‘I’m already getting ready now for Halloween’  as the model was snapped leaving Party City loaded with balloons and pushing a shopping cart full of scary toys.

During Tuesday’s chat with Ellen, Heidi said she’s going big this year after giving herself a break in 2016 when she turned up to her annual bash as herself but alongside five ‘clones’ of her.

‘Last year I was just being me because I thought “I need a year off” so I had like 5 clones and I could just be me… but I don’t think people were too impressed with that.’ she admitted.

‘This year I have to really give it some. I have so many prosthetics on my hands and on my face. I had to do that yesterday. So that was slimy and gross.

‘It’s going to be scary’ the supermodel added, holding her hands up and wiggling her fingers like tentacles.

Commitment: There was no doubting the businesswoman's commitment to her celebratory cause. She grinned from ear to ear as she walked the decorations to her SUV

There was no doubting the businesswoman’s commitment to her celebratory cause. She grinned from ear to ear as she tried to cram the decorations into the back of her SUV.

There was barely enough room to fit all the balloons.

The former Victoria’s Secret Angel was finally able to secure her scary payload in plenty of time to prepare for the upcoming festivities.

In 2016 she arrived at her party – held at New York restaurant Vandal – along with five leggy women dressed identically to her in nude bodysuits and thigh-high boots. 

Each of her five ‘clones’ wore facial prosthesis to replicate Heidi’s nose and chin as well as smokey eye makeup and matching hair extensions. 

The year prior Heidi wowed as she arrived as Jessica Rabbit with a full body prosthetic giving her a huge bosom and generous booty.
