Worst MMVA Fashion

Posted Wed Jun 17, 2009 11:12am PDT by Chloe Tejada in Sound Check
In part one of our daily look at the MuchMusic Video Awards, which air this Sunday, Chloe listed the most cringe-worthy performances of past MMVAs. Today, she takes on questionable moments in MMVA fashion.

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!

why is anyone suprised? I mean, fefe dobsons been trying to be a singer for a long time now with no success, avril lavign and paris hilton are ALWAYS tacky, and the ever aging pamela anderson always dresses like a 18 yr old hoooker...are we suprised?

Jays isnt so bad...i mean i's his personality...a little flair...whatever.

63. skittles123 -

Hey Luna,
learn how to spell. How you present yourself is very important. Do you find yourself frustrated because no-one will give you challenging work or show confidence in you to do a difficult job. Perhaps it is your attitude that everyone should not pay attention to how you look, whether you are trying to show others that you care about how you look and perhaps will try to care about what kind of job you will do. It works the same when you use short form texting for all your correspondence... u no wat i mean? It looks lazy. Anyway how you look, and how you present yourself is always important. First impressions are what gets you the job nine times out of ten.

EEWW Jay Manuel? WAA?! Pammy it aiight, wouldnt expect less! get it! Anf Girliscious?! I went to some gay pride event invloving Drag Queens...let's just say "Halloween" doesnt even cut it....

I personally think that both Jay and Pamela look completely stunning and hot! I find their sense of style daring, bold and glamorous in their own way - their style represents them and as style is an art, isn't that what it should be doing for these people anyways? (same goes for Fefe, Avril, Paris and Rhianna). Food for thought isn't it...

I think that there is beauty in people having the guts and courage to wear what they want and like - especially in the public eye - and have the confidence to still look good in it and completely pull it off with a gorgeous smile! I mean, lets face it, could you?

jay can still pull off looking like a handome man. but he looks more lesbianish there. And who's the anorexic chick with him? duuude, eat something.

70. Mark 47 -
who cares what I think. why are you even reading this. They must all be doing something right. You're commenting on their pictures so they are still getting publicity, and no publicity is bad publicity. Jay usually looks great so he's allowed one bad night.

71. manyowls -
this out fit could ruin her singing career? whose saying this bs. crap!

72. fun.notnuts -
Most people think they have an abundance of good taste and common sense but the proof is in the pudding. All that money and still can't look good? Geeze. Some people just don't have the knack.

73. ordie -
They all look ridiculous-this is not fashion-it's statement making crap and no one gets it

74. Yahoo! Music User -

down and saw that girl b side jay i was like wat the hell

jay has to learn the things that he teaches on the show. avril rocks!! GO CANADA!!and screw the pple that hate caneda. rihanna has to lose those suspenders. girlishious is f*****.
who the f*** is fefe? i have nuthin to say about paris except
spoiled little brat who is known 4 her money and no talent.
who ever wrote this has no life

75. Charlotte J -
Yep who cares.

76. Yahoo! Music User -
Pam looks just perfect, hot as always. In fact, better if she wears NOTHING!
All other gowns are just wrong.

77. Tree456 -

78. lindylu07 -
WHY DO POP STARS HAVE TO DRESS LIE PROSTITUES?

79. Tree456 -
