Christina Aguilera and Other Music News

Okay...I have noticed that Christina Aguilera has gained weight. What bothers me is that she is a musician, not a model; I don't understand why the focus is on her weight. When she came out at the recent Michael Jackson tribute concert, I heard nothing about her voice or her performance, but I've seen dozens of pictures accompanied with numerous unflattering comments about how "fat" she has become. Why can't a female musician just be recognized for her voice, especially for someone like Aguilera who is so talented?


Yes, I know she was micro thin. She was a childless teenager when she came out on the scene, so I'm sure looking like she did came naturally to her.





She wasn't immune to criticism or controversy when she was thin...She was ridiculed for her clothes and makeup, called a slut and whore for her dancing and stage costumes...apparently, no matter how perfect a woman looks, she is still a target for the media and public. That being said, what has emerged since the weight gain is unprecedented. It's as though the whole industry, as well as the public, has forgotten that Christina is a singer. I hear nothing about her voice or performances, nothing about her music career. All that is out there about Aguilera revolves around her weight gain.





It reminds me of when Russell Brand tweeted a picture of Katy Perry making a face in bed with no make up on. You would have thought she was a deformed leper based on the public reaction. Has society forgotten that the pictures we see of celebrities involve costumes, make up,extensions, wigs, camera angles, air brushing and photo shop? I mean, do people think that singers, actresses and models sleep looking like porcelain dolls, or are void of flaws? How bad does it have to get and how long does it have to go on that female performers are held under a microscope for their physical appearance instead of being lauded or criticized for their abilities? Enough is enough. It's time that this new generation, a generation that was raised in the era of internet and photo shop, that is bombarded by media images and tabloids regarding rail thin celebrities, or celebrities that have gained a few pounds, or gotten implants, or dared leave their house with no make up, is shown that ALL women, even celebrities, when lying in bed with no make up on making a face doesn't look like the cover of a magazine; that a woman who has children and is no longer a teenager might not look like she did on the cover of Rolling Stone when she was 19. Get a grip, society.

The Fashion Industry makes me sick....

Makes me wanna vomit. No wonder I love to make clothes, but hate the politics of the industry! Buy Anti.Label, made in my own personal sweatshop, with materials that I typically make, and I don't hire 12 year old anorexics! BLAHHHHHH.

What the Fashion Industry doesn't want you to know.....

The Grammy's 2011

Finally, the show where fashion is the talk of the night! This year, to me, less was much, MUCH more!

Let's start with ABSOLUTELY hideous looks from wonderful designers......

One of my favorite designer, somehow to "dumb it down", and create this monstrosity of mismatch leopard print (my BIGGEST pet peeve!)
Nicki Minaj-the poor man's Little Kim/Lady Gaga wannabe......

I am starting to hate Bieber less and the music industry more. This kid can actually play a myriad of instruments AND sing, but they have him doing this bullshit. Regardless, he looked like a waiter in this Gucci suit!

Holy FUCKING Armani! Are you KIDDING ME??!! This is a the most generic outfit I have EVER seen! Cliche', cheap, and fugly! It made her performance outfit look like a goddamn haute couture gown! Cheesy, but fitting for Katy Perry.

And then there was Ricky Martin, the gay astronaut. Nice guy, baaaaad outfit.

Man.....I am ALWAYS counting on this girl to do a bigger gal justice, but not tonight! This looks like a fucking Affliction T shirt. Utter, tribal crap. And the choker/shoulder piece.....no thanks...too much.

I hate this, and that is all I can say.

OMMMMG! Jeremy Scott is SUCH an awesome designer, yet he custom made this piece of shit! The hot pink, the shape, the eyebrows, the eye makeup.....all HORRIBLE! This girl could do sooo much better, if she just didn't try so hard.

WTF Toni Braxton?

The MOST disappointing of the night was Lady Gaga. (This might be a book!)First, her "creative director" is a TOTAL moron! The whole "egg incubating' scenario was stupid to begin with, but her directors "explanation" of the fiasco was even worse! She was obnoxious, broke character, and felt the need to keep saying "incubating". I DARE you to ask her what incubating means! It totally broke the "image" of an already fading image in my eyes.....her stage performance was NOT worth the wait either. I never thought I would say this, but it was a TOTAL poor man's version of "Express Yourself". Yikes, I guess she DOESN'T have anything else up her sleeve.

Ok, now to the BEST DRESSED! I was actually shocked at how many simplified, yet gllllorious dresses there were! You can see that the 70's are huge for spring, especially the metallic throwbacks to Michelle Pfeiffer in Scarface!

Demi Lovato. Not the best picture of her, and a she is a little young, but she looked FAB-U-LOUS!

Heidi Klum. I am not a huge fan of the slit, but I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE this dress! VERY similar to one of my favorite Oscar dresses!

****2000 Oscar dress****

Leanne Rimes

This dress is NOT great on her, but I love it, so it is on the list!

I loooooove this dress! I could do without the neckpiece, and perhaps the iridescent fabric layered in, but overall....LOVE!

Same ole, same ole, but Jennifer Lopez looks GLLLLORIOUS, as usual!

Jada Smith. This isn't ground-breaking, but I loooove it!

Finally, my MOST favorite. This is SUPER simple, but I was blown away! This picture does NOT do this look justice! The makeup, hair, and accessories were PERFECT.

Honorable Mentions and Big Misses

Nicole Kidman. Ok, she has been dressing like A TOTAL JAKE since her marriage to Keith Urban, but tonight her dress grew on me. I initially saw the top half, which looked like a dowdy, Gunne Sax dress from 1978. However, once I saw the entire dress, it was a little unique, and a little ugly, which I love. That said, it is an honorable mention...for her.

If Jennifer Hudson loses ONE MORE POUND, she is going to be a disgusting bobblehead. She is already teetering on the verge, but she did look GREAT!

Kelly Osbourne. I am not a fan of the color or the bow, but FOR HER, she looked pretty good. She looked a lot less mature, and a lot less like she needed her jaw reset. She is clearly trying to become a "fashionista" and shed her bratty image, but she may be going a little too far. Getting her tattoos removed I hear? You can still have tattoos and be into fashion! Love the shoes though. And the natural blond hair.

I am a little embarrassed by this, but I like this dress. Kim Kardashian looks good, but her boobs are TOO big in this! It changes the whole look of the dress, making it look more like a stripper dress than a JLO knock-off! Slap the dress on a less busty girl, and WOW!

Rhianna. I am sorry, but I hate it. I love Jean-Paul Gaultier, but this is awful. I WANTED to like it. Perhaps if it was a different color I would. I sound like my Mamaw, but she is TOO pretty to have THAT red of hair and excessive makeup! It totally distracts from her beautiful face! The idea of the dress, I like, but it just doesn't do it for me. Her stage dress was better, but just a bit too contrived.

I wanted soooooooooooooooo bad to like this dress....and from the front, I did! The back was another story....

Love the fabric (if in another color), hate the dress.

And did anyone see Miley Cyrus trying sooooooooo hard to show off her whitetrash dream catcher tattoo??! It was SO obvious, it was EMBARRASSING!!!!!!

Finally, the shock of the evening was when I spotted the EXACT outfit, from head to toe, that was part of my past Winter collection for Anti.Label.

HA! Buy my version, 27837378929 times cheaper than the black Ralph Lauren, here

Golden Globes 2011 Fashion

Aight. This year the Golden Globe's were ACTUALLY filled with tons of fun fashion! Let's break it down:

The BEST of the BEST (without question)

This dress was FABULOUSLY simple. She looks gllllorious in it, and I am happy to see her without red lipstick for once (although I LOVE the lipstick!)

OMG. According to E! "Fashion Police", Mila is the "poor man's Angelina Jolie." Yeah, in your bra!!!!!!!!!!! Are you kidding me?! Why......because she has dark hair and an emerald dress on?! If anything, she is a younger, prettier, more fashionable Angelina. So suck it.

I.HAVE.NEVER.SEEN.A.PLUS.SIZED.WOMAN.LOOK.SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.GOOD! WOW! This dress makes her look like a million dollars!

There is really nothing to be said about this other than......"What a beautiful, dark-haired Disney princess!" I take that back....she looks like a queen! BEAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTIFUL!

Wow! I usually wouldn't like something so big and fluffy, but it is BLACK!!! I LOVE IT!

Again, the "Fashion Police", and the rest of America, can kiss my ass! This dress (although I initially thought it was nude), was sooooooooooooooooo vintage, yet fashion-forward! Her bangs looked great, her bod looked great, and anyone who thinks otherwise is a piece of shit. Yes, you are.

I honestly can't quite make this dress out....but I love it!

HONORABLE MENTIONS (with exceptions!)

Everyone was up in arms about this dress, however, it needed some tweaking. First, it was a tad too revealing for the GG. If there had been side panels, and her boobs were not soooooooooooooooo uplifted and smooshed, this dress WOULD be in the "BEST of the BEST."

I liked this dress a lot, but for specific reasons only. I liked the color and the silhouette, but mostly because it covers up her anorexic body! She has looked much worst, but she STILL looks 15 years older than she is. The "Dynasty" comments should have been directed towards her age-inappropriate look, as oppose to her dress style.

Of all of the colors in the world, I DESPISE orange. However, this dress is wonderful! It appeared a bit more yellow on tv, which I preferred, but it is still a glorious dress. The only exception is that split mop hair.

I will probably be stabbed for thinking this, but I am sorry, I REALLY liked this dress! Yes, it wasn't appropriate for the Golden Globes. Yes, it looks like "Little House on the Prairie." But, something about this was really "fresh and young", as "THEY" would say.

I like the dress, just nothing else.

Nothing "ground-breaking", but she looks like a dream, from head to toe.

The MOST HIDEOUS

I would LIKE to think that the world was in-agreement on this one, however, the world consists of 96% idiots....

This IS her style, but it IS hideous too.

This looks like a towel wrapped around a bodysuit.

OMG....is it 1996? I REEEEEALLY don't think words even need to describe this ensemble. And this is the beast that judged MY clothing.....hahahaha!

The ONE thing that the "Fashion Police" actually got right! This dress wouldn't be that bad (I am soooooooooooooooo being nice and trying to find beauty in shit), if it wasn't for the 1992 RAVE mall print! First, how could someone design something so hideous? Second, how could it cost more than $19.99? Third, who in their right mind would wear this? Seriously? Especially when she wore one of my MOST FAVORITE dresses of ALL TIME in the past?

*********REMEMBER THIS FUCKING BEAUTIFUL DRESS?!**********

J.Lo........YIKES! This looks like a bridal gown from the 60's! AT BEST!

I CANNOT believe Halle Berry wore this dominatrix monstrosity!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not only was it sooooooooooo inappropriate, it was too short, too tight, too sheer, and too ugly! AGAIN, what is this??? 1996??!!!!

There is technically nothing wrong with this dress, but I am SOOOOOOOOOOO sick of seeing Eva Longoria wearing black. This is the same dress she has always worn, and it is not only boring, but doesn't look good with dark hair and olive skin! You need some color woman!

I am always SUPER excited to see what Christina Hendricks will wear, because it usually odd, which I love! However, people are DELUSIONAL if they think this works. Not only is it red (hair), on red (dress), on red (carpet), it is waaaaaaaaaaaay too much! The shoulder rose looks like it is a part of her hair, and IF she was going to wear this mess, her hair should AT LEAST be up!

And finally......another BEAUTIFUL lady, in an age-INappropriate dress, and matronly hair! YUCK!

The LEFTOVERS......

Although the statement, "less is more", may be true, this dress is TOO simple. However, due to the fact that Emma Stone has NEVER looked so good, she deserves a solid passing C+ from!

This is soooooooo sad for some reason. I have never been a big fan of Christina Aguilera(although that girl CAN sing!), but lately she has looked....um......"stuffed." This dress isn't ugly, it would look great on Dita Von Teese, but on Christina....yikes. It is just TOO small and TOO low. The dress is overwhelming, and her hair is yellow. She CLEARLY is not fat, but something just looks bloated and white trash. SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Again, Helen Mirren could teach you a thing or two about a thing or two! WOW!

Jane Lynch looks beau-t-i-ful!

I do like this dress....it isn't my most favorite, but because of the color, it is a little unique!

Alright man! This isn't the Miss America pageant! I feel sooooooooooo sorry for Jennifer Love Hewitt.....I feel like her and Aguilera are stuck in a "cheap taste time warp."

Megan Fox is beautiful. Her gown is glorious (albeit many season old), but for some reason she always screams "white trash" to me!!!

And finally, a woman who doesn't fit into ANY category.....
