Halloween has become a BIG holiday. The Wall Street Journal reported that Americans will spend over $3 Billion (yes, billion) on Halloween costumes, decorations and other Halloween paraphernalia.

And if my unscientific survey of elementary school girls is any indication it seems that a significant portion of that money will be used to procure Hannah Montana costumes.

I got a chuckle the other day, when my daughter and her friends (all of Asian decent) discovered they were all going to be Hannah for Halloween. The girls starting laughing as the each modeled Hannah’s signature long blonde wig and ‘became’ Hannah. One girl said, “a Chinese Hannah Montana?” They’ll never believe this.”

I am hoping that we will be able to get a photo of the Hannah’s at the annual Halloween party…I am sure Hannah would be proud.

Have a great weekend.

With Respect,
Deb
