Jon and Kate Gosselin might be a top Halloween costume trend this year, but Katie Couric is going to dress up as a lesser-known Gosselin.

"I met Kate and she seems very nice, and I told her I was gonna be Aaden," the CBS Evening News anchor, 52, tells Extra of opting to dress as one of the 5-year-old sextuplets. "She said, 'You have to make sure you wear the glasses at the end of your nose.'"

The mother of eight, 34, admitted on Monday's TLC special that she "laughed my head off" when she learned of the Halloween wigs inspired by her famous hairstyle that have gone on sale nationwide.

"They don't call it the Kate wig because then they would have to give me proceeds, which I find very interesting," she said of the "Eight Is Too Much" wigs on the pretaped You Ask, Kate Answers segment.

She even told Ellen DeGeneres in an interview that aired Wednesday that the Halloween wigs made her rethink her look.

Does Kate's hairstyle work on these celebs?

"Somebody emailed that to me a bit ago saying there was going to be a Kate Gosselin wig," she said, "and I thought, 'Wow, is that really what my hair looks like?'"

    Lots of good ideas here! There is a retail chain in New York called Ricky’s NYC that has a ton of fun costume ideas, including some you discussed here. You can check it out online

    I met Katie Couric at an airport with no entourage, just her and her lovely daughter. She helped me out when I was in a stressful situation. She was very kind to me and my father. I had never met a celebrity before and was very impressed that she would help out a total stranger. She is a very classy lady.

    Katie, why would you poke fun to a child? I never did like you as a reporter, now I know exactly why I don't like you as a person.

    Katie Couric SUCKS!!! What a loser!! Why the hell would you dress like a little kid? Can we say mental case.

  • October 28, 2009 - 10:55pm Kim

    Why the hell would you want to dress up as one of those children? Leave THEM alone!

    She thinks the wig is a tribute to her and is flattered, when in actuality, the people who will wear it are doing it to make fun of her. She is so full of herself.

    Katie Couric is a fake - so she can go as anything; no one cares about her anyways - well maybe her children. CBS made a huge mistake hiring this fake lady - and losing millions of viewers. Just goes to show - she is lucky.

    Kate is sickening... Best costume? Anything thing that covers Her face!

  • October 28, 2009 - 7:53pm I can't wait until this all blows up in Kate Hudson's face like every other man she's been with

    Go as the balloon boy, Katie. The Gosselins are so boring.

    Kate Gosselin needs to go away. No talent, and money hungry. Accusing Jon of playing to the paps and traveling to be on shows. JUST WHAT IS IT SHE IS DOING omg make the madness stop, clearly people in television that have her on dont know the whole story !
