VMAs (2009)

This year the MTV Video Music Awards was not the snooze-fest it has been in years past.

Russell Brand was smooth and politically-incorrect in the sleazy, yet charming, sort of way that only a proper British bloke can be.


There was a fantastic Michael Jackson tribute (by whom I can only guess are his dancers from the tour that will never be - unless you count the lost footage that will come out as a documentary on Oct. 30).


Janet Jackson performed by her brother's digital side.


Green Day rocked.


Beyonce shook.


Pink flew.


Gaga bled.


And, of course, Kanye cried.

Again.

Only this time, it wasn't about a Grammy that he "should have won" - but a VMA that Beyonce should have won.


Which she eventually DID win.


Beyonce graciously relinquished her spotlight to Taylor Swift whose own was so rudely robbed by He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named-Anymore (whom Kelly Clarkson has some choice words for).


Alright, now that we've put that to bed -

Let's get to the(ir) closets.

VMAs: The Gents (Best Of)

Biggest letdown of the night in terms of performance, but not in terms of dress (at rehearsal).




Give me a man in a well-tailored suit any day.


Mr. Bowtie is my favorite of the night.


Rocker-chic


"Rocker"-"chic"


Pretty ladies


I like how Ne-Yo is rockin' the short sleeves - it works.


(Death Cab for) Cuties



A man who can make you laugh is always sexy.


Feel free to disagree, but I heart this look. (And, no, he's not gay.)

VMAs: The Gents (Worst Of)

This is an awards show, not Monday morning at the office. Fix your tie please.


I think this might be okay if the sweater wasn't so tight(?)


This is an award show, not Sunday afternoon at the yacht club. Put on a tie please.


Why are you famous again?


I have 2 carry-ons, 1 suitcase, and a set of golf clubs - room #1020. Thanks.


What a fashionable lady


This Shakespearean actor is looking a little rough


This choreographer is looking a little Shakespearean


This is an awards show, not a bar. Invest in a tie please.


I almost put this in "Best Of" just because it is so funny


Daisy Duck! I didn't realize we were at Disneyland . . .


You can never go wrong with a white-T. . . unless it doesn't fit.


Throwing up a sign and wearing fly kicks does not a fashion statement make.


Unless it's not a peace sign and you are hot.


Is there anything worse than being up-staged by the cartoon version of yourself?


Answer: Yes - wearing the cartoon version of yourself.


Amendment: Yes - being a complete douchebag.

VMAs: Couples+

(Best Of)

Nice suit, cute skirt (neckline needs lowering).


Very cute ensemble!


Love the pink, LOVE the shoes.


(Worst Of)
I have a sneaking suspicion as to why Marc Anthony has his sunglasses on at 8 o'clock at night.


I'm wondering if "Side B" is even worse


"Honey, let's go to homecoming together!"
"Okay, but only if I can dress the way I normally do when I'm in the cafeteria."


It cannot be good if R. Patz('s hair) looks cleaner and more presentable than you(rs).


Megan Fox allowed someone to take a bite out of her skirt. And then tried to cover it up by wearing a bib. Over her crotch.
