Leighton Meester
It's possible the Gossip girl's recent wave of trying too hard to be sexy began after the fallout from these now-infamous Emmy shoulder pads. If so, let this image mark the beginning of the downward spiral.
Naomi Watts
We can only imagine how embarrassed the actress was when her limo pulled up to the Vanity Fair Oscar Party instead of the premiere for the stage production of The Little Mermaid: Back Under the Sea—a Tragedy in Three Acts.
Renée Zellweger
At the Golden Globe Awards, the three-time winner goes to great lengths to prove she’s not your typical celeb by showing she wears undergarments.

Lauren Conrad
L.C., you try so hard to convince us of your red carpet relevancy and your place in the world of celebrity, so at an Oscars dinner, celebrating that world's biggest night, you give us...this? We're just saying.
Zooey Deschanel
We get it, Zooey, you're cool...You're a hipster in heels. You're authentic. And look at us, we prisoners of society, with our clothes made of congruous shapes, our enslavement to the idea of "sizes." When will we learn?!
Rachel Weisz
The Academy Award winner is normally so pretty, and the bodice of her dress hints at both that and at the glamour of the Vanity Fair Oscar party. But why she would stop there and let the rest of her frock duel it out with her shoes in an epic gladiator match is beyond us.
M.I.A.
The Grammys red carpet is neither the time nor the place for tennis shoes, and all the swagger in the world doesn’t change that. As for that concoction up top, we’re as baffled as you are.
Marisa Tomei
The Wrestler star’s bizarre pirate getup must’ve been on sail, 'cause we can’t think of any other reason to choose it for the Golden Globes. We commend the bargain, but as for style...she's ship out of luck!
Estelle
Late for the Grammys with nothing to wear, the "American Boy" girl innovatively wraps herself in tinfoil.
Emily Blunt
This way silver dress would’ve been perfect for, say, the discotheque, but for the SAG Awards? Maybe not.
Claire Danes
The actress lets loose, breaking out of her monochromatic confines with a dolorous splash of black lace while attending Elton John's Oscar party. Wild stuff.
Beyoncé
Did the superdiva really turn her grandmother’s couch into a gown for the Oscars?
Katy Perry
The bubble-gum princess shows no signs of a bow deficiency at the Grammys.
Sarah Jessica Parker
We believe Matthew's expression speaks for all of us: When removed from the context of a Halloween party or the privacy of one's own home and inserted into the Oscars, the erotic princess look is known to induce giggle fits.
Paula Abdul
The former Laker Girl resurrects her team pride in this extremely yellow gown at the Grammys.
Mickey Rourke
For the SAG Awards, Mickey chose a mystifying and very metallic silver suit. Hand down the pants on the red carpet? Perplexing, but we got used to it.
