    LOL @ VICTORIA BECKHAM SHE IS SO FUNNY.

  10. Kita

    Beyonce looks not very GLAMMED up this time. Who is the Dial a Date that Bill Maher has with him? I love Kimora’s dress.

  11. FINE-N-MELLOW

    I NEED FOR MARY TO GET RID OF THAT BLONDE IISSSH FOR ONCE, CHANGE IT UP MA.

  12. Make ya say hmmmm...

    Mary and Fergie look terrible, the black just was not doing it for them. OMG Thandie Newton looks fabulous, not too many could pull that off but she did it! Mary and Janet look boring…. Victoria Beckham looks about 90 years here, yikes! I am on the fence about Kimora and Katie, love Iman though….Zoe and Venus look improved (except Venus with the hair), overall my girl Thandie looks the best here

  13. Lost Out There

    Bill Maher & Guest?????????????????????? I guess picking up something to accompany him to a star studded event was the last thing on his mind…….

  14. Looks like fun! Love Kimora’s dress. WTF is Thandie wearing? Not appropriate for this event….imo.

  15. MAI03

    JLo looks great! I just love her style.

    Iman looks flawless, love that color red on her.

    Paula and Robin are just too cute.

    Janet, Kimora, Mary & Venus all look fab.

    Is is just me, but why is it that all of Bill Mahr’s dates always look slutty?

  16. Lola Am

    I like Kimora’s gown.

    Iman looks fab.

    Victoria’s gown is risque, but she pulls it off.

    Mary let me down.

    Venus looks great.

    Angel, everyone is raving over Eva Longoria’s dress. You should have put a pic up!

  17. C. Farmer

    I love Kimora’s dress…. Everyone looks nice but who the h$%^ is the guest pictured with Jason Bill and Bill Maher.. she looks a H.A.M…

  18. Bored

    What is wrong with the Gothic twins Zoe and the other Olsen girl besides that everyone is looking good. I love the color of Beyonce’s dress.

  19. Ladyssolady

    Everyone looks great! Love ALT. Katie’s shoes, her pop piece, are to die for!

  20. Dame

    Nice post Kimora ane Joy dressese are colorful.

    Bee dress is similar to the one she worn to the Oscars. She is still fab as always.

  21. Lola Am

    @ 11

    Dial a Date, funny! lol

  22. Juicy SuperStar

    Oh yeah and I thought Kimora was suppose to be pregnant… I guess thats false… Im sitting around waiting for her new baby…. lol

    I dont get Katie’s shoes either

    LOL @ Jermaine Dupri

    Love Janets dress too.

  23. Peacekeeper00

    I’m disappointed in Jennifer Lopez look.

  24. Lola Am

    oh, I like Katie’s brightness as well. Not sure how I feel about the shoes with it though.

  25. vexxed

    Fergie scares me a little.

    Not loving Thandie’s outfit,but love her.

    Joy, (making that face that friends make when they don’t think your man is all that cute or that face you make when Rick Ross shows up in his videos).

    Bill’ guest (see above face)

    otherwise…. everybody looks amazing and lovely!!!!

  26. HOUSTON'S FINEST

    Beautiful Bee!

  27. Dame

    Paula and Robin are cute together.

    I did Eva dress and it is beautiful

    Mary I am not of the look it is to dark for me.

  28. @ 16. I honestly forgot to upload her pic. I have it saved and everything. LMAO!

  29. 1prettyb

    OMG!!! OMG!!! Finally some up to date pics of BEY yeah go bey go bey…she is the best looking and prettiest…good to see that Zoe will always looka ham no matter what (glam or no glam). J Lo and Kimora look fab as usual! Go Bey Go Bey Go Bey Go Bey.. Bey really has got that posing thing down to the hilt!

  30. 03K.A.I.

    Everyone looks great! Love the dress on Kimora and Zoe is going for a different look.. But look though, what is that Bill Maher is with?? SHE is definitely TRYING to Get It, but missed it by so much! WHAT???? So DROVE!!! LMAO!!!!

  31. Perez

    Kimora Lee’s a stand out and that’s what I love about her, that dress is HOT!!!

  32. Nothing But Love

    Victoria looks firce although she could have over do it with the face make up

    David Beckham…. damn he is to fine

    Mary needs to leave those damn blond wigs alone they do nothing for her.

    Iman knows how to do the damn thing.

    And why does Marc always look like hes on drugs, like his just sniffed a line of coke.

  33. Tate

    Somebody send Bill Maher and his Bebe Clad ridiculous lookin date home!

  34. Nothing But Love

    *not over done it*

  35. TP Star

    Bill Maher and Black Women?? hmmmm! whats really going on?

  36. Shellboggie

    Everyone looks good, Bey is looking more and more like tacky Tina everyday (Her mama). She look a little plain but nice, clearly no baby bump. Mary need to take blonde wig off and give it a rest. She has been rockin that blonde hair for over a decade and someone need to tell her to stop. Kimora should have went to the gym because she is looking a little on the chubby side (ie. her back, and neck). Janet is the winner for the night, I love JLo but I am not digging the dress. Iman one word “FLAWLESS”. Andre Leon Talley two words ” Fall back”. Joy Bryant needs “Help” , and Zoe look like one of the Olson twins.

  37. politicallyincorrect

    I am surprised people like Kimora’s dress she looks like the church stained glass windows!

  38. LuvsIt

    WTF Does Katie have on blue shoes?!
    JANET IS MY BIOTCHE! LUVS HER!!
    Pattie’s dress is nice.
    So is Bey’s I wanna see her OTHER hand. lmao

  39. Marquita

    Katie- Leave those colors for Syracuse.

    Victoria looks like David’s mother. So does Fergie.

    Zoe looks great! Vintage 20s and 30s.

    Mary’s dress is wearing her instead of her wearing that dress.

  40. bigbumpaa

    Beyonce looks effortlessly beautiful..

  41. Nothing But Love

  51. Buffy

    Boy these red carpet lights were very unforgiving….Fergie looks seriously weird and Beyonce looks like some eager plain jane who was given an Armani gown and cute clutch. JLo’s dress is doing nothing for her… Posh’s dress looks like it’s still on the rack. Eva Langoria’s dress looks like the one Penelope Cruz wore to the Oscars in 07 and the one Cameron Diaz wore to this same event last year… Wow, I’m sooooo underwhelmed…

  52. Well not all the women look stunning, I take that back…

    Victoria Beckham look like she came from the morgue

    Joy Bryant’s dress is a leftover from the Dreamgirl set

    Zoe you know I love you but I ain’t feelin’ the fingerwaves, I love the pink spray in the back better

    Bill Marh’s date must be in one of the Ghetto Booty Vol 19 porns…but you ain’t heard that from me

    Why is Andre Talley always have that dracula cape?

  53. What a lovely sunny day...!

    Kimoras gown… which designer is it by?

  54. Have Not Thought of a New User Name

    I’m not feeling Kimora/Zoe/Joi’s dresses, but everyone else looks good.

  55. vexxed

    Just so you know ladies thw Must Have accessorie of the season is a short dude or a YT dude.

  56. Buffy

    I want to see what Ashley and Mary-Kate wore.

  57. Dame

    Angel I thought u would have post the video of Bee at Mary and Jay on Friday.

  58. vexxed
