When the hearts of a million high-schoolers in Cats T-shirts go pitter-pat. The Broadway community owes it to these kids to really bring it one night a year, and I gotta say… The Miss Saigon lover in me was disappointed. I wanted more glitz, more tack, more joie - what we got was a lot of tasteful black. Marisa Tomei, Laura Linney, Mary-Louise Parker, Christine Baranski, Daphne Rubin-Vega and many more appear in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, post-jump.






The Good:
Marisa Tomei brings it.

I love it when Laura Linney reminds us she's glam.

Christine Baranski always camps it up, awesomely.

Really want to invoke those "It's a business doing pleasure with you" ads, but can't think of a way. Anyway, Mary-Louise Parker.

Kate Shindel's tie-dye number works, adds some much-needed youth to the r.c.

I always feel like, if you have one major red carpet a year, why not make the most of it. Mary McCormack obviously agrees.

...as does Jenna Russell's train.

The Bad:

We all know how I feel about crimes against breasts. Lacey Kohl, j'accuse.

I don't know, guys. I mean, Daphne Rubin-Vega must have really liked this gown to choose it… Why can't I see what she does?

I think it goes without saying that the Viennese Waltz pose Kathryn Grody is striking with husband Mandy Patinkin is awesome. Sadly, the proportions of her ensemble just aren't working.

Laura Benanti's got the glitz, but it feels a little Vegas.

Mayumi Miguel almost rated "Ugly." In the end, though, I didn't think her unfortunate frock had enough imagination.

The Ugly:
Kathryn Hahn, on the other hand, seems to have hit upon a surefire "Ugly" formula: random, tumor-like growths of fabric.

<![CDATA[Judging The 'Gay Super Bowl']]> The Tony Awards (otherwise known as the "Gay Super Bowl") were last night and, of course, we just had to comment on the clothes. The play-by-play, after the jump.

tonys2007christinaapplegate.jpgChristina Applegate: First down. The Hollywood "Glamour Barbie"-look may be Red Carpet 101, but Applegate wears it well.

tonys2007clairedanes.jpgClaire Danes: Penalty. Is it just us, or does Claire Danes own one dress in five different colors?

tonys2007donnamurphy.jpgDonna Murphy: Fumble. The woman looks a fool.

tonys2007idiniamenzel.jpgIdina Menzel: Interference. Ruining Wicked star Menzel's gorgeous frock is her grumpy face.

tonys2007janekrakowski.jpgJane Krakowski: Instant replay. This silver lame dress is so... Studio 54.

tonys2007marciagayharden.jpgMarcia Gay Harden: Penalty. No, we don't know what she was thinking.

tonys2007naomiwattslievchre.jpgNaomi Watts: Sacked. Beautiful pregnancy-inflated breasts should not be hidden away in a sheath. The only redeeming part of this whole ensemble is that it is accessorized with Liev Schreiber.

tonys2007billtjones.jpgBill T. Jones: Touchdown. Throwing a Henley-style sweater underneath a tuxedo makes the legendary modern dancer and newly-minted Tony-winner even dreamier than ever. And yes, we know he's gay.

tonys2007pattilupone.jpgPatti Lupone: Unnecessary roughness. Why do Patti Lupone's clothes always look like they're trying to attack her?

tonys2007vanessawilliams.jpgVanessa Williams: Pass completed. Nice arc, great catch.

tonys2007zachbraff.jpgZach Braff: Ejected. With a haircut this bad, Braff deserves to be benched for the entire season.

Carla Gugino: Touchdown. The color! The cut! The hair! The jewels! Gugino is almost a dead-ringer for Marilyn Monroe, who she played on Broadway back in 2004's After The Fall, and makes glamorous — and wearing chartreuse — look easy.
