Miley, Drew, Angelina: Who I Dished About on Radio

Tuesday January 13, 2009
One of the really fun parts of my job here at About.com is that I get called on by other media to comment on just about everything involving fashion, including the Golden Globes. Here are the highlights from one radio interview:
  • On Angelina: I admitted she looked merely OK (I was not a fan of the blouson look and drab locks), but we could forgive her because she has 6 kids.
  • On Miley: When asked at what age it was appropriate to wear a cleavage-baring gown, I popped off that I wouldn’t let my daughter wear a dress like that (of course, my daughter’s just 6...).
  • On Drew: When asked about Mickey Rourke’s outfit, I said he should have been Drew Barrymore’s date (between her wacky hair and his goofy scarf/glasses/hair they would have cornered the market on crazy).

Do you agree with my assessment of the Golden Globes red carpet? I hope not, because I think it's more fun when there's lots of discussion involved. Ask 10 different fashionistas who they did or didn't like and you'll get 10 different answers. I tend to give liberal points to the celebrity who makes an effort to make a unique fashion statement. It's safe to show up in a strapless gown, red lipstick and neat bun. But real fashion is anything but safe.
