The
red carpet is filled with action as the stars strut their stuff in
front of the cameras. But before that is when the real action happens,
as the glam teams perfect the A-listers' hair, makeup, and gowns. Yet
not even the best beauty products and crew in the world can save a
questionable style choice from becoming the talk of the town. So let's
take a walk down memory lane and reminisce over some of Hollywood's most
daring looks that have left the fashion world split in two.
Cardi B Wins The Grammys
When
New York rapper, singer, songwriter, and all-around star, Cardi B,
walked down the red carpet at the 61st Annual GRAMMY Awards in 2019, she
wore a dress that flowed almost as well as her rhyming. The vintage
Thierry Mugler couture gown transformed Cardi into Venus, emerging from a
shimmering pink oyster shell, complete with a scaled gold bodice and a
pearl hat and necklace combo. That's one way to leave people feeling
shell-shocked!
Katy Perry Lights Things up
Katy
Perry raised the roof and stole the limelight when she attended 2019's
Met Gala Celebrating Camp at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art. She
stole everyone's thunder in a gold armor-plated Fallen Angel outfit at a
previous outing. The year before that, she relished dressing up as a
giant hamburger! Katy is well known for camping it up, and she
definitely lit up the red pink carpet dressed as Moschino's giant
chandelier.

Apparently, Katy roared with laughter when a reporter asked her, "Is that a chandelier on your head, or are you just pleased to see me?"
Amber Rose Is a Shining Vision
Nowadays,
Amber Rose, aka Amber Rose Levonchuck, is famous as a model. But before
she was a celeb in her own right, she was best known for dating Kanye
West, aka Ye. The voluptuous beauty stepped out at the 2014 MTV Video
Music Awards draped in a revealing silver chain-link dress. At the time,
she was married to rapper Wiz Khalifa. Since then, she's dated Machine Gun Kelly and Def Jam record label exec Alexander Edwards.
It's
a good job no one at the awards ceremony mentioned her crew cut
hairstyle. Because if they did, Wiz might have shouted, "Take my wife's
name out of your f***ing mouth!"
Beyonce Had Rhinestones in All the Right Places
The
date was May 4th, 2015. The place was New York City's Metropolitan
Museum of Art. The event was The Met Ball. The theme was "China: Through
The Looking Glass," and the star was Beyoncé Knowles. She practically
floated across the red carpet in a shimmering Swarovski-embellished
Givenchy gown. Yet, because of all the rhinestones, gems, and rocky
crystals, it was actually one of the heaviest gowns she's ever worn.
The
former Destiny's Child singer won everyone's hearts and minds that
night, and the look has gone on to become one of her most popular Met
Gala appearances.
Carmen Electra Did It First, Not Kim K
It
may be twenty-plus years since Baywatch star Carmen Electra was at her
peak, but she looked positively electric at the 1998 M.T.V. Movie
Awards. She looked so electrifying that her look inspired Kim Kardashian
to wear a similar ivory backless, torso-less satin dress. The only
thing holding the dresses together was a transparent string at the back.
On seeing the dress, Carmen posted a side-by-side photo on Instagram
for comparison.
Kendall Took the "Art Of The In-Between" Theme To Heart
Here's
glamorous model, media personality, socialite, and daughter of Kris
Jenner and Caitlyn Jenner, Kendall, hiking up her fabulous dress as she
gingerly negotiates the stairs to the 2017 Met Gala. Don't you just hate
it when you have to hold up your dress to reveal your perfect derrière?
That particular year's exhibition examined the work of Japanese
avant-garde fashion designer Rei Kawakubo and the theme was "Art Of The
In-Between."
And Kendall must have taken the theme to heart as her dress was so revealing that we can see in-between most of it!
