Let's not kid ourselves - the MMVAs are not the most fashionable awards show. I mean, Pamela Anderson hails from our fine country and she is quite possibly the worst dresser in the history of C-list celebrities. Clearly, Canadians need some help when it comes to their sartorial choices (paging ex-VJ Sook-Yin Lee!)

However some past MMVA red carpet moments really made us shudder in horror. Here are our top picks for the worst.

7. Rihanna

Like a toned-down version of Elvira. A little less witch-like but still scary. The dress seems more fitting for Cruella de Vil, not a young, hot pop star. We like you better in leather RiRi.

6. Avril Lavigne

There are better ways to show your patriotic roots than hand sewing a mangy Canadian flag on a hideous "outfit." I get Avril doesn't like to go glam at award shows, but this faux-punk phase has got to go.

5. Paris Hilton

Or should we call you Headmistress Hilton? This lacy ensemble just makes the heiress/Queen-of-All-That-is-Tacky look old and frumpy. The chest area offends me the most. It looks like she inserted a frilly plate on top of her dress.

4. Fefe Dobson

Fefe who? Exactly. This outfit might have ruined any chances of her becoming a successful singer. It looks like she doesn't care at all what she wears. I think the last time I wore ripped jeans was in Grade 9. Huge mistake Fefe!

3. Girlicious

The girls offended audiences with their awful performance, and they offend anyone with a sense of fashion with their awful ensembles. Fire the stylist! This failed S&M look is closer to Halloween hooker costume horror show. Major fail.

2. Pamela Anderson

My poor eyes! Pammy certainly tried her best to win the Worst Dressed award in this shiny, barely-there unflattering ensemble. Hello! Elizabeth Berkley wants her "Showgirls" stage outfit back. And her taste in men doesn't help her cause.

1. Jay Manuel

Maybe Jay wanted a sparkle-off with Pam Anderson? You would think that the host of Canada's Next Top Model (pictured with Season One host and model Tricia Helfer) would know how to dress. But his ill-fitted blazer, too-loose pants and tacky leopard shoes leave me wondering whether he knows anything about fashion. Guess being Tyra Banks' minion doesn't help.

But what do you think about my picks? Think I'm dead wrong? Got an even worse offender I didn't list? Please comment!
