Ciara reminds me of Rachel Roy at this event.
Rihanna needs the hair crew to fix the elvis presley in the front because its falling. Cute dress though. I’m glad she dumbed it down.
Mya beautiful but the dress, not so much.
I love Jessica White! pretty.

Everyone looks good. However, Rih Rih who is one to always push the envelope is looking gorgeous. Everybody looked like they were having a great time. By the way, how did Gabrielle Union get invited, she is not a singer.

Ciara is rocking that Givenchy look. I hope she wins her Grammy for Love Sex Magic.

Rihanna’s dress is interesting.

Usher looks so handsome in his suit. He is very understated with his style.

I can’t stand Jamie Foxx’s overacting ass. So annoying.

Go Mary J Blige! :)

RiRi is wearing Viktor and Rolf. I love it. They’re known for their crazy and edgy designs. I like the color scheme. Everyone looks nice and someone please tell someone to hire some new interviewers for the red carpet next year. They were slightly retarded last night.

love seeing rhi rhi dress edgy. she does it with ease. she look comfortable. But that hair has to go lol. some people are made for edgy dressing and some diffinitely a no no. Keri, MJB, toni, J Hudson and Gabriel look nice. jJhudson lost a lot of weight or the dress makes it seem as though.

Jennifer Hudson - Looks like she going out of space with that leather ass dress on. I bet her p–ssy was hot and moist all night. Hopefully ain’t no stench get out.

Usher - He’s wayy to old to be trying to pose like that. The glove is a cheap imitation of Michael Jackson, and I don’t care how much u idolize a person I would never try to take on their look, because I like to be different. From the look of that spot on his head he may be suffering from some form of HIV. He needs 2 stop smoking weed/cigars because his lips are turning black and it’s really working against his struggle 2 reclaim a throne that he will never regain again.

Mya - Always been a beautiful girl, she looks goods!! I just hope her career take off even though we all know it won’t.

Rihanna - Talentless, Flawless, and Beautiful! U just can’t help but adore the little bajan whore that turned tricks for Hova all over Hollywood. The dress is tacky and really over did.

Mary J Blige - She easily looks like somebody’s grandma with that silky ass shiny dress on that look like it was inspired from the Supremes! You can tell in that woman’s face she is truly blessed, and that she strong…but weak in the fashion department because she looks BAAADDD!

Ciara - Could you easily tell lil head was trying 2 fit in? Please Ci-error try again, we know you’re not fashion forward. Keep f–ckin rappers and dancing on cars it’s the only way you’re going to stay relevant these days.

Toni Braxton - Sweet tender deep voice woman. How are you and your health? U look healthy, but looks can be deceiving! But u have always been fine so keep it up beauty queen with yo old a–s

Keri Hilson - ???What do u be thinkin? U 2 fine 4 all that. Don’t make a Ci-error like this. It’s 2 early in your career.

Jay-Z - Yo old ass it’s time for you 2 be a grand daddy, and you still ain’t a daddy..yet! I don’t care how much money you got and how many LAVISHING trips you take. It ain’t gon buy you happiness, and it’s definitley not gone give you a naturally organic child of your owns. Stop wearing condoms, and make sure that b–tch ain’t on birth control! Matthew Knowles may have his slave tubes tied on the low and you may not know!! I guess she ain’t risking her body or no ugly kids.

Gabrielle Union - Beautiful, but so irrelevant I’m not even gon waste my time.

Gayle King - B–TCH! I know you Oprah friend, but why the f–ck are you at the Grammy’s? Do you have an album? Are you known 2 b a singer? NO NO NO!! Go try invaded places that may obtain to you, like talk shows…and Oprah a–s kissing interviews.

Rihanna looks amazing in that dress. It abnormal but she still makes it look so simple. She is the prefect balance of edge and glamour, something Gaga will never be.

Love rihanna, but i have to admit Ciara owned that night. Ciara looks incredible. Very very good look for her. Ive been impress with her style lately. Hope she continues.

Russel Simmons - I didn’t notice the muslim! U look like a fool with that bow tie. U may say “YEA BUT I GOT MONEY 2 LOOK LIKE THIS THAT YOU AIN’T GOT” But ni–ga for the moment u still look bad and u gon stay looking bad!

Ne-Yo - G@Y G@Y G@Y G@Y G@Y!! I can not wait till he comes out so I can b like told u so! What man poses like that. He look like a fool. NO HOMO YOU ROCKIN WRONG!

Smokey Robinson - He looks like he’s deteriorating. The skin came from looking nice to just look plain awful. It’s scary. He’s scary. He looks dead.

Katy Perry - That man has her looking weird. It’s not even cute.

B.E.P. - It’s so funny to look at them, because they thought their solo careers was going to be as successful as Fergie! But together they made some interesting nice music.

Fergie - Her face is very hallucinate. She looks young, but than she looks old!

Taylor Swift - The most irritating lil bitch I’ve known! I don’t like her and will never like her. She got so much this year based off sympathy, well I’m not even going 2 lie she selling like crazy regardless of the incident, but the fact that she acted so effy about it after the fact is what made me so irritated. People made it seem as if the VMA’s were also important! It’s f–ckin MTV! They don’t even play videos….

Cici’s giving me LIFE in her Givenchy couture!!! she’s owning it! I don’t expect many people on urban blogs to get what she’s wearing, no offense. how is she trying to fit in? Nobody else looks like her… if anything she’s trying to STAND OUT, not fit in. And i’m loving every angle of it…stunning!! :)

I actually really like what Rihanna’s wearing.

the rest are not interesting enough to comment on.

Now let’s be real I said those things for feedback! But I incorporated negativity with positivity! I was not completely negative on the statements I made above. You may think there’s a lil hence of sarcasm, but it’s nothing like that. It’s all the truth!

@43

She does look good but it’s not for her. She tried and I applaud her **KUDOS** but now it’s time to take your head out of your ass see things for what it really is. Take it back 5 years ago when the b–tch first came out….was she anything like this? NO! Let’s see RIhanna evolved into the character she is now **not and never will be a Rihanna stan or STAN period**…Ciara on the other hand just came out like an overnight face reconstruction surgery. Which is why it don’t look natural and gives off the impression like she tried 2 fit in. No ones against Ci-error..but look at the facts…Her first CD went multi-platinum…her second one struggled to go platinum, and her third one is trying 2 go GOLD! It’s not the fact that the economy has went to hell it’s the fact that she switched up 2 much and it made her lose her fan base! That formula just didn’t work for her, and sad 2 say artist like Ciara and Mya is going 2 be the reason “UNSUNG” will continue making episodes. No one cares 4 them that much…tough cookies but the truth!

49.

Chris

Sunday, January 31, 2010 /

@44

I respect you for that, because I agree. A person can accept constructive criticism, but when you criticize them by contrasting their owns uniques to their peers it hurts. So many of the females strives to be on artists like Beyonce, Jay-Z, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga etc. level but can’t. Beyonce don’t say stuff like “I’m sh–tin on you h–es!” So why would a person that’s a fan, represent her like that? It’s not what she or any other artist is for, and that’s being real! I can deal with the negativity towards the artist, but once you go about it in that form of contrasting it’s not respectable or right! That’s being real.

All you all some haters forreal! Ciara looks absolutely incredible with her Givenchy!!!! She is trying something different and when you go for the same look or look that has been done several times, you will get boring after a while. Ciara is taking risk and looking great. Let her do what she wants to do. Damn, she aint wearing it for you, and I bet the haters on here who says she looks crazy can barely afford Givenchy

Only a few comments:
Ciara’s outfit looks like one Amerie was wearing when her album came out (i don’t like the footwear)
Mya looks like she stole her outfit from the dancing with the stars wardrobe. Her style is a bit random, all of the events she has been to lately all her looks don’ blend.
I like Rihanna’s dress but i don’t know how she sits down.
Gabby looks nice.
Wasn’t Jessica White going out with micky rourke or somebody the outher day?
