The only thing hotter than the performances at the Grammy’s are the outfits. Attracting music’s creme de la creme, the red carpet at the Grammy’s has more personality and risk taking than award shows geared toward the worlds f film and television. Here’s a wrap-up of what the biggest stars wore on music’s biggest night.

All That Glitters

Sequin frocks ruled the red carpet at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards. Kim Kardashian, Heidi Klum and LeAnn Rimes donned liquid gold gowns, modern takes on the flashy gold numbers worn by soul singers in the 70’s.

Janelle Monae added a subtle twist to her typical uniform of a sleek tuxedo with a sequin one button blazer paired with high-waisted satin trousers and a western string tie.

Mirror mirror the the wall, who’s the fairest of them all - Jennifer Lopez in a V-neck, long sleeve silver mini dress with reflective pieces all over. Not exactly age appropriate but still flaming hot, JLo looked just as awesome as she did in her hay day as a pop star.

Animal Instincts

If her goal was to make jaws drop, spark facebook and twitter wars and make every worst dressed list imaginable then Nicki Minaj was successful. Her leopard print look, complete with a platinum blonde afro was most definitely the worst look of the evening.

Miley Cyrus on the other hand, got animal print oh-so-right. Wearing a playful black, silver and gold zebra print sequin gown she looked sexy and still managed to look youthful in an animal print.

Frothy Frocks

Feminine silhouettes and soft pastel hues popped up on stars including E! television’s fashion consultant Kelly Osbourne and singers Natasha Bedingfield and Ciara.

Pop star Rhianna looked as though a fifth grader designed her dress out of white plastic leis. Poofy horizontal stripes covered a nude base. Unflattering hair and makeup made the look even more tacky. Rhianna’s one of my favorites, but her Grammy attire was utterly disappointing.


All Black Everything

Rythym and blues songstress Monica donned an all black, backless, ankle length gown with a mermaid silhouette and a long train. An unflattering boxed neckline, exaggerated shoulders and short tight sleeves made the dress look awkward and uncomfortable.

Glee star Lea Michele looked divine in a deep v-neck gown complete with ruffles, an asymmetrical hemline and train. The dress had a sultry latin flair and a lace insert at the midriff dialed up the sultry factor even more. Simple tousled locks, minimal jewelry and magenta lips complemented the look perfectly.

When you’ve fashioned an awards show gown out of raw meat, how do you top yourself? Showing up on the red carpet in a pod carried by your minions is a viable option. Lady Gaga emerged from her pod donning pointed shoulder prosthetics, a black leather strap bandeau top, barely there bottoms, thigh high boots and a hat that completely covered her face. I’m not a fan of Lady Gaga’s fashion, nor do I consider her a fashionista but she is entertaining!
