Bad Style Oscar Baywatch: Jennifer Lawrence I’m not saying she didn’t look good. She looked great. Gorgeous. Hot. Super sexy. But you can’t deny that’s exacly the same shade of red. And it’s cut exactly like an elongated swimsuit. She could be running in slow motion down the beach…which…well… By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 05:42 am
Bad Style Sandra Bullock – Worst One Year Later Written by Duana Oh Sandra. Honey, what was going on tonight? Everyone knows tonight was a moment for you – that even though you were talking about what a great experience it is to win, that all you could think about was the beginning of the end that was last year.

Oscars 2011 Oscar Rude & Orange: Matthew McConaughey First of all, what colour is he exactly? Did you see the telecast? To borrow from Bridget Jones, next to Scarlett Johansson, McConaughey was practically purple. Was it like that on your tv too? You know, I promise you in real life, his lady is spectacular. I wasn’t into By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 05:09 am
Maple Leaf Best Contract Fulfilment: Celine Dion Written by Duana This woman. This – woman. She is so fantastic. She is not here because these are all her lovely celebrity friends – she is here because she was invited, requested to do a job. You know what her job is? Her job is “to sing the ‘Smile’ song to By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 04:51 am
Bad Style Oscar Fringe & Tail: Emma Stone Duana saw these photos before I did. I was heading back from the press room when my Blackberry went off with a note from her that read “you’re not going to like Emma Stone”. She was right. Very, very disappointed. This is Emma Stone at the Vanity Fair party. By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 04:34 am
Bad Style Worst Biscuit Dress: Florence Welch Written by Duana Florence of Florence and the Machine – who’s informally Florence Welch - obviously has a lot to be happy about. Not the least of which is being invited to perform at the Academy Awards. But did she look like she was enjoying herself? Or – let me rephrase By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 04:13 am
BFFs Oscar Bro-down: RDJ & Jude Law RDJ should host the Oscars. Some of you suggested he should host with Sandra Bullock. Yeah I could get down with that. Neither of them needs it though. And they might be too big for it anyway. But sometimes it’s too short, you know? Watching him for 3 minutes, By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 04:00 am
Style Mila Kunis Written by Duana So about that dress. I stared at it for a long time. Oddly, the thing that got me wasn’t the cut but the colour, I’m generally not a fan of anything in that kind of candy-fied, pastellish hue. Anyway, as the show went on I By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 03:36 am
Bad Style Worst Oscar Hair: Reese Witherspoon Jesus. Who made this call? The only, only, only positive here are the earrings. Everything else is an Elle Woods homage to Julia Roberts. But it’s the hair that’s really the crime here. The dress is for a hostess but it’s the hair that really fills me By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 03:16 am
Oscars 2011 Best Oscar ConCERN: Helena Bonham Carter Written by Duana Helena Bonham Carter was pretty intent on not pulling the focus last night which is actually rather charming. She knew it wasn’t about her. Yet – somehow she still managed, in her all black ensemble, to catch my eye – she was concerned. Helena was concerned. She spent By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 02:54 am
Style Oscar Charcoal: Helen Mirren Duana and I just talked about Helen Mirren – she thinks it’s a big “samey”, she didn’t get “emotional” about this look the way she got emotional about Cate Blanchett’s. Didn’t we all get emotional about Cate Blanchett? We’ll get to Cate Blanchett later. That’s By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 02:44 am
Oscars 2011 Best Gracious Loser/Worst "Princess": Steinfeld Written by Duana Okay. I have an announcement to make. “PRINCESS” HAS LEFT THE BUILDING. Let me back it up a little bit. When I worked at etalk, we were writing a lot of stories about Christina Aguilera and Beyonce and so forth. The word “Diva” came up a lot. By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 02:21 am
Bad Style Oscar Breasts: Jennifer Hudson I am predisposed to not like this material. I don’t like taffeta. Ever. Taffeta often comes in offensive colours. Always loud. Always really mall prom. It doesn’t scream style to me. It certainly isn’t fresh. And on Jennifer Hudson, with her new Weight Watchers body that gets By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 02:11 am
Bad Style Berry & Swank - Former Winners Wearing Metallic Written by Duana Now look, now. If anyone other than Halle Berry had paid tribute to Lena Horne, would it mean that we were less aware of the struggles she had had and the triumphs she had made over the then-totally-biased industry in Hollywood? If I started to talk about By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 02:00 am
Bad Style Oscar Failed Vintage: Marisa Tomei Jessi Cruickshank reported on our etalk red carpet show that Marisa Tomei’s dress was some kind of 1950s gown that is so rare and so precious, they wouldn’t loan it to her so she had to buy it and it was tens of thousands of dollars, probably the By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 01:32 am
Bad Style Worst Hathaway Imitation: Mandy Moore Written by Duana The first reaction everyone had to Mandy Moore tonight was that she looked severe and kind of angry. This is factual, and though the part in her hair and the weird eyebrow (that a lot of people had going) didn’t help, there was something else at By Lainey • Feb 28, 2011 01:18 am
