Anne Hathaway's Armani Privé gown with its Swarovski crystal embroidered bustier and layers of gauze is absolutely dazzling. But something just isn't right. The deep blue against her fair skin, accented with bright-red lips and nails, comes across as stark and cold—something that surely could have been solved (and softened!) by letting her hair down.
This must be what happens when the entire universe declares you the most beautiful creature to ever walk the planet. Ever. Angelina Jolie’s Versace gown is essentially the same dress (but with sparkles) as her Critics' Choice Awards number. If she doesn’t start acting like she’s grateful for the title, we’ll have to take it away. We hear Jessica Simpson would pay good money for it.
We have a creepy feeling Renée Zellweger will be showing up in people's nightmares this evening. Between the curly updo, sheer Carolina Herrera blouse and fishtail skirt, she looks ready to let some poor 19th-century bloke really have it, S&M-style. And judging by her pout, she likes it that way.
Cameron Diaz always seems to wake up every awards-show morning thinking it's just a normal day. Until a call from her agent informs her she has to be at the Golden Globes in an hour. She doesn't even have time to get her roots done or steam her Chanel Haute Couture confection, but she still makes it to the red carpet anyway. Why? Because she cares.
See, the Jonas brothers really are three separate beings. That’s why Nick channels Johnny Cash in all black, Kevin keeps it boring (or classic depending on your Kev-love) in a regular tux and Joe looks red-hot. Now you can easily choose your favorite without having to think too hard. Thanks, Disney.
Somewhere on syndicated TV, Jerry Seinfeld is whining "But I don't want to be a pirate." Poor Marisa Tomei must have missed that episode, because she allowed someone to put her in this blouse, throw on these strands of pewter jewelry and belt the whole thing up with lace. How else does something like this happen?!
Jennifer Lopez decides to go for the most literal interpretation of the Golden Globes—you know, covering her globes with golden thread (via Marchesa). But not too covered. After all, how else would people know she's still a serious sexpot after birthing the twins without exposing some cleavage? Thanks, J.Lo, but we’ve seen it before.
Miley Cyrus keeps it sweet and innocent in this soft white creation by the angels above Marchesa. She even leaves her much-older boyfriend at home, so don’t even think about questioning her virtue tonight. That’s right, Miley's wholesome-tween-queen reign is off to a strong start in ’09.
We definitely know who’s having the most fun at the party tonight! There’s something admirable about Drew Barrymore going all the way with her crazy-lady look. Her big flouncy hair perfectly complements her Dior by John Galliano gown, which in itself is just a tad bit kooky. How do we get a seat at her table?
Christina Applegate swears this pale yellow, drop-waisted gown is Roberto Cavalli, but there’s something very David’s Bridal about the whole thing. Sure, the Samantha Who? star would look quite lovely walking down the aisle. But "Here Comes the Bride...on the Red Carpet"? Not so much.
Holy curves, Beyoncé! There is nothing subtle about this Elie Saab creation, which is all about boobs, hips and thighs. We suspect that her alter ego Sasha Fierce is the one behind this “check up on it” getup, but without a robot hand in sight, it's still just a theory.
