The 36th Annual People's Choice Awards officially kicked off award season in Hollywood tonight. The Nokia Theater was shining bright with stars. Some of them showed up ready to strut their stuff and others were left in their stardust. The
People's Choice Awards is an awards show recognizing the people and the work of
popular culture. The show has been held annually since 1975 and is voted on by the general public. The People's Choice Awards air on
CBS and Queen Latifah was an amazing host.
Her majesty reigned supreme with over a dozen gown changes all that flattered her voluptuous figure. Mary J. Blige performed her new hit "Who I Am". The sexy R&B crooner looked fabulous with her black fitted dress with shoulder pads. It was nice to see a diva rise after tabloid scrutiny a month ago, you can't cheat fabulousity!
So, the winners of the night like Ellen DeGeneres, The Proposal, The Big Bang Theory, were all deserving of their awards, but now it's time to talk FASHION winners, because after all, the only image burned into our memories is the GOOD, BAD, and the UGLY.
1. CARRIE COUTURE. Country sweetheart, Carrie Underwood glowed in her couture dress. Not only did she win Best Country singer of the night, but this bride-to-be is getting ready for her TV closeup. According to
People.com country superstar
Carrie Underwood will appear in an upcoming episode as Tiffany, a love interest for Ted (
Josh Radnor). We love Carrie's stylist who keeps her constantly fresh, chic, and sophisticated.
2. SHE IS NEVER BAD IN FASHION, ALL BY HERSELF. Taraji P. Henson left us breathless in a one-shoulder rouched floor length gown. She was ravishing on the red carpet with her impeccable sense of fashion. From last year's award season, Henson strives to find her footing as one of Hollywood's hottest fashion icons. Dying to see what Golden Globes and Oscars have in store for us!
3. MODERN MAMACITA. Columbian goddess, Sofia Vergara's beauty is flawless. She represented for the curvy girls in a 'caliente' strapless ensemble. And elevated not only heart rates but took the outfit to a whole new level with bold beaded statement necklace. I love women who can pull it together and make it look effortless. Muy bonita!
4. NIECY 'NAILED IT. Style Network's curvy-licious cutie worked the red carpet in her perfect asymmetrical pink gown. This Clean House star cleans up quite well.
5. YOU'VE GOT MALE. I typically give #5 to just one person, but I couldn't help but give the men a little love, because they actually impressed me rocking some of 2010's hottest trends. Christian Slater and Omar Epps were devilishly dapper in their monochromatic suit, shirt, and tie- look. HOT! HOT! HOT! High school hotties, Greg Finley and Darren Kagasoff showed off their handsome grey threads, while Hugh Jackman and Taylor Lautner kept it clean, classic, and ooooohh so sexy in a white dress shirt and crisp suit. Delish!
With the fashion winners, . . . there are the
fash-
tastrophes. And who tops my list of the 5
People who need to Fire their Stylists. Here goes, . . .the wow, why, whoa, whoops, and what was she thinking?
WOW. "I DON'T", like "The Proposal" starlet, Sandra Bullock's choice. It looks like bed drapes and sloppy, we were hoping that she'd get it together. I mean, don't get me wrong, I am a huge fan of Sandy, and this is not the last we will see of her this year. But I am hoping that when she accepts her Best Actress at the Academy Awards, that I can also tag her Best Dressed.
WHY. "The Secret Life of" Style, is what it should be called, because it's obviously a secret how to get dressed also. Megan Park and her co-star, Francia Raisa need to go back to home-ec, those dresses look like a kindergartner made them in "arts and craft" time. With teen-tween princesses like Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez, and Demi Lovato, these little girls need to take some serious notes. Even the Glee girls showed up in style.
WHOA. No Love, for HBO's "Big Love" star, Ginnifer Goodwin this time around. Although black and white, the colors are on trend, this dress was all wrong. He's Just Not That Into You, well we know why!
WHOOPS. NCIS has a new meaning tonight- NO CLEAVAGE IN SHIRT. Actress, Daniela Ruah, although gorgeous, needs to put the girls into the corset to make it work. And I am all for a great suit, but a see-thru corset that doesn't fit is not HOT! Try again!
WHAT WAS SHE THINKING? Para-NO MORE. Front woman, Hayley Williams, cute and quirky red hair and punked out look work, but did I miss something? Did she forget that it's not Halloween? Because Little Bo Peep called and wants her dress back. Bow-distaster!
Until next time, . . .Critics Choice, SAG Awards, and Golden Globes are on the horizon, . . .will 2010 red carpet be a MEMORABLE one or one not worth remembering? Stay tuned, . . .
