Rob Gronkowski steals the moment with outrageous Ken Doll outfit for HalloweenÂ
Former NFL tight end Rob Gronkowski isn't one to turn down an opportunity to have a good time. And Halloween is one of those times. This weekend, his longtime girlfriend Camille Kostek posted a photo of the two dressed as Ken and Barbie. In her post that was wishing everyone a "Happy Halloween," Kostek posted a series of photos of their full costumes.
The couple was in matching bring pink printed visors, while Gronk was wearing matching shorts and a bright pink t-shirt. He then accompanied the look with bright pink leg warmers and a fluorescent yellow fanny pack as well as knee and elbow pads.
The last photo of Kostek's post shows the inspiration behind the costume. The upcoming "Barbie" movie will star Ryan Gosling and Margie Robbie which is set to be released in movie theaters in July 2023. Just a few months ago, photos of the set were released and the two stars were wearing nearly identical costumes that Gronkowski and Kostek donned for Halloween.
While Gronk didn't look overly thrilled to be dressed as a Ken doll, he seemed to go with it for the spirit of Halloween.
Gronkowski's new job at FOX indicates there won't be another comeback
Former NFL tight end Rob Gronkowski announced this past offseason that he would be retiring from the National Football League for the second time. Gronk came out of retirement in 2020, to join former teammate Tom Brady with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After two seasons with the Bucs and winning another Super Bowl title, the tight end future Hall of Famer decided to call it a career for good this time.
Although many speculated that Brady could convince Gronk to come out of retirement yet again, it appears that this time he is done for good. Just two weeks ago, NFL FOX on Sunday announced that Gronk was re-hired to be apart of their Sunday kickoff show. In 2019, he tried his hand at a broadcasting career but returned to the football field after just one season in the studio.
Former #Bucs and #Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski joins @FOXSports
This time around, it seems that Gronkowski is ready to embrace the broadcasting side of the sport that he played for 11 seasons. The four-time All Pro now brings his big personality and love for the game to the studio, which FOX hopes brings in a younger generation of viewers looking for a lighter take on the pregame show.
