Oscar Fashion Recap…The Bad

Now for the fun part, who should have skipped the red carpet. I don’t mind being bitchy about this because these women have buckets of cash and professional people to style, primp and pamper them before the show. It’s not my fault if they hired a fashion school drop-out or if they forgot to look in a mirror before popping open the champagne in their limo.

So here are my picks for the big fashion losers:

Jennifer Hudson may have won the Oscar, but that is no excuse for the Judy Jetson gold python jacket she was sporting on the red carpet. At least she had the sense to take it off later so she won’t have to look back on her big moment in that bolero…yuck!

Anne Hathaway in Valentino. What is with the ink spot on the front? Not only was it unflattering to her figure, it looked like a giant butterfly crashed into the front of her gown.

Jessica Biel wore an pink Oscar de la Renta halter that looked hot, but she gets marked down for her hair, too bumpy, and for her obiovus lack of a bra. It would look hot on her if it hadn’t been so cold in LA last night.

Gwyneth Paltrow. I may be the lone nay-sayer on this one, but I didn’t like the meshy, peach Spiderman dress. The criss-crossing lines were distracting and made me a little dizzy. Plus her lipstick is way too red for the gown. She needs to go kiss a few guys to tone down the bright red color.

Cameron Diaz showed up sporting an angular white off the shoulder something that looked like it came right out of a paper factory. It was one of my least favorite looks of the night. Right up there with a bald Jack Nicholson sitting the front row. Check the tape…he’s as bald as Britney.

So, that’s my take on Oscar fashion. Of course I spent the night in yoga pants and a tank top eating ice cream while watching E!. So what do I know?

Gwyneth Paltrow Likes Americans Enough to Beg Us to See Her Movie

Gwyneth Paltrow doesn’t want you to hold her anti-American comments against her baby brother. The wannabe Brit has repeatedly denied that she made disparaging remarks about her former homeland and now she is afraid that all of us less intelligent and less cultured Americans will boycott her brother’s directorial debut.

Life & Style Weekly has the story:

The 34-year-old actress, who lives in England with her British husband, Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin, 29, and their two children, created an uproar in the U.S. when she told a Portuguese newspaper that “the British are much more intelligent and civilized than Americans.” Gwyneth quickly denied the insults, but she’s worried that angry moviegoers are going to punish her by refusing to see her next movie, The Good Night, which was directed by 31-year-old Jake. “She’s just torn up about this,” says an insider.

Hey, here’s a thought, maybe no one wants to see Gwyneth in a movie because she hasn’t done anything worth watching since she named her first kid Apple. Or maybe we just don’t want to listen to Gwyneth’s fake British accent anymore.

Gwyneth Paltrow Denies Insulting America

Gwyneth Paltrow is denying that she is a snobbish, wannabe Brit who looks down on Amercians. Now, why would we think that?

People reports:

Gwyneth Paltrow is “deeply upset” over stories claiming she made anti-American remarks, and tells PEOPLE exclusively that she never said anything against her native country.

“I felt so upset to be completely misconstrued and I never, ever would have said that,” says the 34-year-old Oscar winner. “I definitely did not say that I think the British are more intelligent and civilized than Americans. I am a New York girl, that’s how I always think of myself and see myself.”

As for where the quotes came from, Paltrow says she did not give an interview to the Portuguese daily newspaper, though she did give a press conference - in Spanish - for an endorsement she did in Spain.

“This is what I said. I said that Europe is a much older culture and there’s a difference. I always say in America, people live to work and in Europe, people work to live. There are positives in both,” says the actress, adding, “Obviously I need to go back to seventh-grade Spanish!”

Obviously Gwyn needs to stay in England or that “New York girl” is going to get a beat down on the subway by some real New Yorkers.
