On the AMA red carpet: I don’t want to stand under her umbrella…ella…ella…

Usually, when I see Rihanna, she looks flawless and beautful. Here, she looks poorly fitted and frumpy. What happened? All I want to do is comb that block of hair out of her face. Don’t worry Rihanna, we all have our days. I’ll give you one more “Pon de Replay!” Okay, that was a bad joke - just like this dress.

On the AMA red carpet: Fringe-Canadian

I don’t know what is more annoying. Celine Dion’s cover of Heart’s “Alone” or this picture of her frolicking in a flapper mess.

On the AMA red carpet: All the right curves

The one thing I really like about Beyonce is that she is VERY comfortable with her body. She knows how to work those curves and draw attention to the right places - especially in this creamy golden mermaid gown. Sure, she is about to bust out of the top, but man, she is looking - ok, I’ll say it - “Bootylicious!”

On the AMA red carpet: Origami beauty

This has to be one of my FAVORITE looks from the AMA red carpet. It’s simple, it’s chic and it has just the right amount of pleating and tucking detail to make Christina Applegate look gorgeous. It fit her like a dream and I absolutely love the color. She certainly has come a long way from those acid wash jean days of “Married with Children.”

On the AMA red carpet: Grape-a-licious in A Minor

Even though this cute vintage-looking purple frock seems more casual, it was appropriate for an event of this caliber. Actually, this was one of many outfits Alicia Keys wore to the American Music Awards. It’s young, fresh and tasteful - but Miss Keys can rock anything she wears.

On the AMA Red Carpet: You look like a doily…

Please forgive me, I totally forgot that the American Music Awards were this weekend. I was busy doing laundry.

If you can name the movie where the title of this post is from, I’ll give you a prize. Other than that, I can’t help but think that this dress that Carrie Underwood wore at the American Music Awards belongs underneath a bowl of potpourri in a retirement home.
