Thoughts on the Red Carpet

First impressions.... Seriously, E!'s coverage of the red carpet has really gone downhill. Ryan Seacrest is a fiasco. Guiliana (sp?) dress is a horrible color. I know mustard is supposed to be big for spring, but it's not translating well on camera. Plus, she looks like an alien. Debbie looks fabulous, and I am so glad she admitted she doesn't eat. Maggie Gyllenhaal - looks fabulous! I can't believe she just had a baby, it looks like she lost all the weight.

I wonder how many cans of Aquanet JLo used... I can't get a good view of Jennifer Hudson's dress, but the fug metallic jacket does not look like Oscar material to me. Looks much more like an outfit for the Grammys. Rachel Weisz - love the dress, she looks beautiful, but the hair is a bit too deconstructed for me....I think she had the same hairdresser as Cameron Diaz, who's dress looks too casual. I bet some people will slam Penelope Cruz for her dress, but I like the drama of it. I just wish her hair was a bit softer, and her makeup a bit brighter....it just blends too much with the neutral color of her dress. Some pop would be nice. Jessica Biel - she has a sick body, and that dress doesn't highlight it for her. There's something about the fit of the dress and width of the belt that I can't put my finger on. Just saw Gwenyth, and love love love the color of her dress, but not the lipstick. I think she could use a haircut. Beyonce....I just don't get it. It looks like the same old costume that she always wears. Nicole Kidman is stunning of course...but I feel like I've seen her in a similar dress before...maybe in a Chanel ad? Naiomi Watts is one of my favorites, and I especially love the yellow dress. She's already starting to show!

Reese's hair and makeup are flawless. The bangs look great on her...can't get a good look at the dress. Ok, what? Meryl Streep is a size 14? That cannot be possible - Prada doesn't make sizes that big!
