Aubrey O'Day is beyond trashy- I do not understand how she feels comfortable leaving the house.

SOMEONE EXPLAIN TO ME HOW THAT IS CONSIDERED HOT???

Aubrey O'Day is directly (and badly) ripping off one of Charlize's old Oscar looks:

That is pathetic, dude. Her penance should be folding sweaters at an Aeropostale in Iowa for ETERNITY!!!

Is Vera Wang 'in the family way'? If not, that dress is a terrible advertisement for her skills as a couturiere.

And is it wrong to say I love Minka Kelly's dress? The color is gorgeous.

Well let's hope that they smelled good, cause everyone seems to be a fucking trainwreck.

Why do I feel like I've seen Taylor Momsen in that outfit a gazillion times?

And I was so confused when I saw Aubrey O'Day, because she's looking kinda Olseny there.

And. I love Minka Kelly's dress. She's rockin' it waaaaay harder than I'd ever be.

(Isn't FIFI the PERFECT name for a perfume award? Also, did all these stars just come for perfume swag? Because I can't imagine this being a particularly interesting ceremony...)

The theater geek in me just melted at the sight of Bernadette Peters. I love you, Bernie, and I always will.

I love Padma but I feel like she is wearing a towel wrap and feathery slippers like they sell at Frederick's of Hollywood.

Is Vera Wang pregnant? She looks like she has a belly.

I like Minka Kelly's dress. I think she looks more like a baby shower cupcake.

@Mrs. Cannon: it's the attention whore in her.

You know, Padma usually looks tres chic. I don't think the color or 'do really suit her.

But ohhmygod the lemon chiffon dress.

uhm, the roses on Padma Lakshis shoes are LITTLE? And yes, Taylor Momsen looks cute, but age appropiate?

@ineffable.me: I think Bernadette Peters looks pretty good, but yeah...mostly ass.

Dayum, Bernadette has a hot body. Way to go, girl! Padma just looks awkward - not diggin' it.

Does anyone watch Salt and Pepa's show? I wonder if Pepa went through the diet freak out again to look good in her dress?

The one reality show I watch..

i like the top of minka kelly's dress. if it didn't get all crazy at the waist i'd lurve it.

@Mrs. Cannon: @BiscuitDoughJones:

Is Audrey O'Day the chick from Danity Kane? IS she the one that was the object of a rumor that she was preggers with P. Diddy's baby? I'm not high (Christ in A Canoe, I wish I was!) -- this rumor was going around at the same time that Kim Porter was pregnant with the twins with the stripper names.

@Khrushchev: I love anyone who was in Annie. I was irrationally obsessed with that movie as a child.

@Le Kangourou de Kataroo: Probably because her character is always in dresses like this on Gossip Girl.

I too, would go gay for Padma--we saw her at Barney's two years ago randomly, and she was in jeans, a sweatshirt and no makeup and looked absolutely gorgeous.

@langtry: yes.

I'm pretty sure they all look bad, but I know it can't be easy to separate them out this early in the morning. Also, anything called FIFI probably shouldn't exist. EVER.

@summerwheatley: Haha well-played.

@langtry:

I thought the same thing about the amateurish visible hem stitching -- send that back to the drawing board/workroom! Or seventh-grade home ec.

@dumblonde: Of course she has a belly. Don't you, or does all of your food just fall out the backend like sweaters down a laundry chute? Or Do you have an abdominal dumbwaiter system? Fascinating!

Aubrey O'Day's stylist needs to be fired and then never hired by anyone else again, ever.

If looking like a baby shower gift is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

@Mrs. Cannon: Don't you be taking MY name in vain, sister! ;)

@ineffable.me: Touché! Razor-sharp, as always.

My inexplicable adoration of Bernadette Peters dates back to my childhood obsession with Into the Woods. In retrospect, I'm so proud of my 8 year old self for being able to spot such a winner.

@TruculentandUnreliable: Yeah, she's the definitely the prettiest one there but I dunno, the dress seems a bit too formal for the occasion, and she could've benefitted from a belt or a big necklace or something.

@BiscuitDoughJones: Maybe she has an asshole where her belly used to be?

Vera Wang Mattresses, Vera Wang for Kohls, Vera Wang Housewares and now...Vera Wang for Hefty.

@Le Kangourou de Kataroo: I've seen that dress on lots of other actresses, it was even in that "Who wore it best" thing in the rags.

Poor Taylor Momsen. She's so young to have succumbed to the dreaded bodice-eating mutant custard termite queens. Aren't there like, shots for that now?

@Bella_vina: i think so. when i was 15/16 i was wearing stuff like that, just on a ross/tj maxx scale. think homecoming... we all wore cute cocktail dresses and heels (seriously- its a flowy baby doll dress, not skin tight, not cut down to her navel or butt cleavage, not showing off so much leg her gyno could do an exam...)

@BiscuitDoughJones: I do. And actually, when I stand with my hips thrust forward like Vera, my tummy actually looks SMALLER. Astounding.

i want to be Bernadette Peters when I grow up.

oh, and Minka Kelly is so stunning-- perhaps a longer length (minus the bubble hem?) would make the dress less precious, though?

@ineffable.me: I think you're right, but when someone the picture above her looks to be a person wearing a cocktail dress from Deb, I'm going to let it slide a little.

"A+ Bernadette Peters! What a color! What a face! How old are you? You haven't aged since you played Lily St. James in Annie." Since Annie? She hasn't aged since she played Steve Martin's girlfriend in The Jerk!

According to imdb, she's 60. Sixty!

@BiscuitDoughJones: "Abdominal dumbwaiter system" is now my new imaginary band name and also my bulletproof excuse for any faux pas I will ever make ever.

"Gracious, tscheese, did you just sneeze?"
"Nope, that was juuuust my ol' abdominal dumbwaiter system. Pay no heed."

Isn't it Lily St. Regis? Or is that in my head?

And, yeah, everything about that dress is perfection.

@PrairieGirl: NO FUCKING WAY. No. We should all be 1/4 so lucky.

Lose the fur, Vera. Also, how far along are you anyway?

@girlscoutcookie: after the hotel.

I also loved her in the Brandy Cinderella- she was such a great evil stepmother.

Pepa's tits scare me. They're so...high. And so separated. The anti-cleavage look.

@JeSuisIci: There's nothing inexplicable about it. The woman is incredible, as evidenced by the dress she is wearing, and the fact that she is 60.

@TruculentandUnreliable: true dat.

@curlyjoe: nice. real classy.

@curlyjoe: I was wondering that too. Pregnant or just unfortunately dressed?

Bernadette Peters looks exactly the same as she did when I was a "Child" (47 here) and she has aged wonderfully. It amazes me!!

I love Salt N Pepa, but I find it hard to tolerate Pepa's inability to grow up and find a stylish and mature manner to dress. I guess that was a time in her life that she cannot let go of, so she clings to that image. But she just seems like so much fun!!

@BiscuitDoughJones: I thnk folding sweaters is a more difficult task than she can handle- therefore, the perfect punishment.

Bernadette! Bernadette! Bernadette!

... I know we have a rule against pointless posts, but I just adore that woman beyond words and reason.

ALSO, that Judy Jetson look will haunt my dreams.
