2010 Grammys: Who Hit The High Notes And Who Came Out Flat
The GOOD
Taylor Swift. Love the color! Love the sparklies. Love the back and shoulder of this dress. Not too fond of the hair but what you lack in lock love you make up in gown adoration! A+++
Um. Where did Lea Michele come from?! Check out the gams on this girl. And I j'adore this dress.Love the color and the flirty ruffles? Feathers?. Wish her hair were up to make her appear more sophisticated but overall she worked it out.
What is there to say about Heidi Klum? I mean really. Woman could wear a grape seed and some duct tape and still be drop dead gorgo. I love this pinky peachy color with her post-baby glow and I'm into her casual blow-out. You're totally IN, Heid.
I think Fergie looked ferosh at the Grammys. I adored the electric blue color of her dress and it fit her like a glove. But then I catch a glimpse of her face and see that it resembles melted plastic soda bottles. So I'm a wee bit torn. Overall: B-. Ease up on the Restalyn injections lovey.
Not entirely sure why Marisa Miller was at the Grammys but girl look hooooooot. Seriously. Total Girl Crush worthy. But then again, she's a Victoria Secret model so I guess it's in her contract that she has to be hot, like every day? I'm into her hair. How can I achieve her tousled 'do??
For the record: I LOATHE this dress. The top looks like some sort of string game the Amish would play for fun by candle light. However, I love her makeup. Her face and hair always look amazing, so whoever is in charge of hair and makeup, bravo. Whoever is in charge of dressing her? Fire them immediately.
The BAD:
Oh Look! Amy Winehouse decided to become a blond! Or is that Alexis Arquette? Well I'll be damned. It's Lady Gaga! (Yikes). How does one go to the bathroom in that contraption?
Dear Ciara, You're not exactly making the earth rotate with your music so why don't you stop dressing like you don't care. Because the last time I saw you, you were making an appearance on America's Next Top Model. Love, Lisa.
They really do let any old trash into the Grammys don't they? Britney Spears is not sexy, she is not a fashion icon, hell she's barely a music icon. She's a hot mess and it's pretty apparent with this black doily she's wearing.
"Wake up in the morning looking like a dirty ash tray."
People actually had Ke$ha (I hate that I just spelled her name with the $ symbol) on the best dressed list. Her dress looks like it was picked up at Salvation Army two hours before the show and what's with this eye makeup she's wearing. Is she channeling Jem & The Holograms?
GO SYNERGY!!
Okaaaaay Beyonce we get it. You're a curvy girl who likes to show off your curves. But if you're going to be doing a performance that is going to suck as much wind as yours did at the 2010 Grammys, you better be wearing something capital FIERCE to offset said crappy performance. (You outta know? I mean really?) And this flesh toned number below, most certainly did not blow anyone's weave off.
I wonder if Imogen Heap knows that auditions for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland have already come and gone? Maybe someone can send her a bbm letting her know.
Oh, hello Col. Sanders. Can I get some extra mashed potatoes with my fried chicken? Gracias!!
So what do you think? Did I get it right? Are you outraged? Think I was off the mark? Let me know your thoughts! Xx
Hi Kate,
It's a matter of personal opinion I guess. I think Britney Spears is trashy, lacks talent and has no business being in the music industry period. I wouldn't comment on her makeup even if it did look good. I am the last person to be all for the stereotypical Hollywood types with lollipop heads as you say. You should read more of TLAMFG or my personal blog Yourgirlfriendisugly.com and you'll realize that quickly .

nooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! i *LOVED* lady gaga's outfit. loved it. she's original, she's different, she's daring. i shall defend the constellation dress until my dying day! :)
also, re: ciara: that's a givenchy original right there; she's ricardo tisci's new muse...i don't know how much i buy her in that role, but i thought she did the outfit justice.
beyonce, on the other hand, is an endless source of mirth for me. pure comedy.

Just read comment above and funny that I was about to commend you for what you said about Britney! You know my utter hatred for that girl and your comments were right on. Talentless and doesn't belong at a show such as the Grammy's, let alone in Hollywood at all! And really, we should be praising her for a good weave day??
Taylor Swift, agree, dress great, hair a big no. Same with Fergie, killer dress and body, but something is off about the face. And hilar Jem reference! PS..not getting the stance Beyonce is attempting in that picture...is that cuz she couldn't move any other way?? Looks awkward and uncomfortable.

Dear Vdigi,
You know I love you more than my luggage but I don't care if Hubert de Givenchy himself stitched Ciara's outfit, she was wearing skants (skorts but in the pant version). Just because it's couture, doesn't mean it's fabulous.

Wow...that's pretty scathing. I like that you based your reviews for the "Good" looks on the actual look and for all the "Bad" looks, you just unleashed your vitriol. Carrie Underwood's dress sucked, but you took the time to note that her hair and makeup were stunning. I don't understand why you didn't do the same for Britney Spears (I am not a fan but even I have to admit that girlfriend's weave was looking pretty damn good and her makeup was flawless). Imogen Heap is known for her unique style of dressing (as much that as for her music) - while it may not be everyone's taste, it's not necessarily "bad".
All of the people you chose as looking "Good" were the young, white stereotypical Hollywood lollipop head types. They all had pretty generic looks and there was nothing stand out or unique about any of them.
