Today’s topic is Top 2 Favorite Grammy Dresses.
**In typical Andrea fashion, I’ll be talking about more than just my two favorite dresses. I just can’t help myself.
The Grammys were crazy Sunday night! I love watching the shows just to see what everyone is wearing, but I usually fast forward through the awards because I think the speeches are boring. Well, that wasn’t really a problem with the Grammys because they didn’t really give out any awards! It was just one performance after another.
I absolutely loved Cee Lo & Gwyneth Paltrow’s performance of “Forget You.” First of all, Cee Lo was a cross between the NBC Peacock (witty remark by Jules) and whatever hatched out of GaGa’s egg. And Muppets? Genius. It was over the top and I loved it.
I also loved Eminem’s performance, the Dolly tribute, and whoever those guys with beards were. (Mumford & Sons? I had never heard of them before Sunday night but I LOVED their performance.)
I did not care for the Biebs performance, and the Aretha tribute was horrible in my opinion. Tell me, how is it that Christina can remember the words to Aretha’s music but not the National Anthem?
Now on to the fashion!
My absolute favorite dress of the night was JLo. Ahh, bling. I love you so. Check out her shoes! Her hair looks a bit of a hot mess, but who is looking at her hair with legs like those?
Did you see her present with Marc (her husband)? I swear, she looked so annoyed! I had to laugh – that’s what I would look like if Jason and I were to go on television.
I don’t think this dress looks as good in pictures as it did on the television, but Jennifer Hudson was another one of my favorites. If Weight Watchers can do this for me, sign me up.
Now for the undecided….
I think this is a gorgeous dress, and Selena Gomez looks beautiful. But is this too much for a Disney star? It’s very form fitting. I originally thought she was 16, but a quick Google search reveals she’s 18. I guess it is ok for an 18 year old, and at least she isn’t pulling a Miley and wearing Julia Robert’s Pretty Woman skirt.
And onto the bad.
I actually didn’t mind some of the out there outfits, like Nicki Minaj or Lady GaGa. (GaGa did freak me out. The horns & pointy things on her shoulders? Gross. It’s like Madonna’s boob cones, but on her shoulders and forehead.) I think you know what to expect with certain performers, and you’d be disappointed if they didn’t bring their crazy.
A lot was said on Twitter last night about Miley gaining weight. It’s obvious she has gained weight but I don’t think it looks bad on her. Her makeup & hair are gorgeous, but the dress wasn’t flattering to her new curves. The television showed a side shot & her breast was almost entirely out of her dress. I just don’t care for this dress – there is a time & place for animal print, which I love, but this looks a little bit like something you’d find at Rave in the mall for $24.99.
When Ricky came out of the closet, he just jumped out waving his jazz hands, didn’t he? I mean, these are crazy pants. I made the comment on Twitter last night that he looks like his top came from Armani and his bottom came from Justice. In fact, I’m pretty sure I saw those leggings at Target in the little girl’s section.
Did you watch the Grammys? What did you think? Who was best and worst dressed, in your opinion?

I hate my self for missing the grammys its when people get really crazy jennifer lopez is fabulous and so in ricky!!!
..."he came out of the closet waving his jazz hands" that my friend is some fun-nay stuff!
I didn't watch, I never do, I'm such a TV dweeb!
Maybe Miley has gained weight because after smokin' her big bong she gets the munchies, I heard that will happen! I could care less if she's gotten a little "fluffy", young girls need to see a real sized girl and not a Gumby stick figure but what they don't need to see is her mouth around a smoking bong! Boo Miley!
Jennifer Hudson looks amazing and has worked hard whether I like her dress or not and Jennifer Lopez is just plain hot!
Selena Gomez is a cutie, hopefully the pressures of Hollywood won't ruin this one!
JLo looked hot!!! I think Ricky forgot his tux pants!
Im cracking up at the ricky comments!! I thought Ceelo was trying to be like Elton John from his muphet days!
Bwahaha. Love the Ricky picture.
My best friend growing up was obsessed with him. I kept telling her he was gay, but she didn't believe me. I even went to a concert with her and that just confirmed it more than the pants in the picture.
LOL! I love everything you said and I couldn't have said it better!! Seriously i really laughed at my desk over Ricky I will be sharing this post at the office today!
I would totally go to a Lady Gaga concert just to see her costumes, haha!!! :)
I loved Selena Gomez's dress, too. I didn't watch the grammys, but saw it in Taylor's post. I agree that it's borderline old for an 18 year old, though.
Thanks for the comment on my post, today. Makes my heart warm : )
I loved JLo's dress too! And Heidi Klums (:
LOL! Thanks for using my peacock reference. Mumford & Sons are really good and definitely growing on me. I love their song Little Lion Man.
J. Lo looked hot and I agree about her and Marc. That would totally be Geof and I. At least it looked real.
Jennifer Hudson looked fantastic and whoa did she lose a lot of weight.
We must have been watching the same show, because I thought Miley’s ‘girls’ were going to come out of that dress at any point. Definitely looks like a dress from Rave or the Deb shop…haha.
Ricky Martin’s leggings are out of control!
haha I loved Gwyenths duet with the Muppets! I thought it was so cute and brought something different to the tabel and not Lady GAGA different.. I also loved Jennifers (L) look! :) Hope you had a great day!
HILARIOUS post.
i loved CeeLO and Gwenyth too..and muppets? how can you go wrong, right!
my fave dress was J Lo too and the hubz and i were totally laughing about how annoyed she was with him.
i said, "hmmpf, i can relate" and he asked, "what is that suppose to mean? there is no way i am as annoying as THAT guy!"
i died laughing...i love my husband.
Jennifer Lopez was gorgeous that night. But then again, she always is! =) And I loved Selena's dress too. And I couldn't agree more about Ricky Martin. Ha!
Cee-Lo and Gwenyth were some of my favs for the night too!! I loved it!!
What the hellz was Ricky Martin thinking?? Holygeez.
J-Lo looked ABSOLUTELY gorgeous!! My love for her has grown astronomically since she has been on American Idol. I thought I would hate this season, but thanks to her and Steven...I LOVE it!!
I didn't watch the Grammys but your comments about Miley's Rave dress and Ricky's jazz hands cracked me up! Thanks for the giggles :-)
Girl you crack me up!! The jazz hands comment made me spit my soda out...SO true!!
