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!

Jay was bad, but he was standing right next to Tricia Helfer who looks like she lost the chest to her dress. I'm not against skin, but really, that's just stupid lookin

Paris Hilton's chest scares me. I don't mean any offense, but that outfit needs to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

103. Yahoo! Music User -
Avril looks like she's wearing the sort of clothes your grandmother would give you!

104. hoadsean -
with the money they have, I don't think are opions matter

105. Nicole -
I think Avril looks very cute with what she has on. I think it was a creative outfit. It's very eccentric and there's nothing wrong with being yourself.

106. Nicole -
I agree with what hoadsean just said. Our opinions do not matter to them

107. Yahoo! Music User -
Well, I liked Avril Lavigne's outfit.

a dress is a dress, an accesory, a covering not a character. why no one should not put a piece of dress on her body..It's allowed in the west and no one have to comment on it.

I must comment on the 12th comment that was made. "Iron Maiden" says that Pamela looks extremely attractive in anything, but I strongly disagree. I must admit, Pamela does have a killer body (though some of it may not be real) most of the clothes she wears is skanky and does nothing for her body. The girl needs to get a clue and stop dressing like some sort of slut! She's got to have more dignity! Her outfits are making her earn more fans. Of course most of those fans are now weird, creepy, perverted stalker dudes instead of the target audience. Please, consider this Pam, leave behind the sparkly stirpper clothes and start dressing more sophisticated! You can still look sexy wihtout dressing like a whore!

jay manuel....hahahaha!!!!!!!!! back in the closet please (and I am not talking about your outfit)

112. Yahoo! Music User -
i fully agree with Luna. people should be able to express themselves without being criticized and dissed. i do that all the time and i realize that its not going to get you anywhere especailly when you post it on the internet trying to get attention. HARSH!!!!

113. me -
I believe some of these people dress as they just so we will put their picture anywhere good or bad...any publicity is good especially when you are worried about losing your A-B or other list rating.

Pam Anderson used to be nice years ago. Now she is living on the fumes of whatever polularity she had. Her only way to get undeserved attention is to dress slutty. I surely would not want to be photographed with a woman like that. She was a BIG LETDOWN in Montreal last summer. After coming hours late, she refused to sign any autographs to the people who waited hours for her. She thought by being there, the world would stop, got her $100,000 check and simply left. What's with Kid Rock? He was in such a hurry to be with Pam that he forgot to put his shirt on. Glad he didn't forget his pants or his small hat.

115. zzzdreamerzzz -
hey pamela and rihanna both would look hot dressed in a plain paper bag or a potatoe sack. lots of jealousy out there.

116. Team Edward -
They wore what they wanted to wear. They did not pick out those clothes for YOU, they picked it out because they liked them.

117. Yahoo! Music User -
puhlese..............

118. angie7475 -
as long as the women are wearing panties ?

119. Dads -
Guys, its fun actually! good entertaiment!

Look at the "Kid Rock", he's like a kid too excited to go to the backyard holding his kite to fly. He dressed like he just jumped out from the bed.

Heeuuumm!!!!!!!
This yea,r I decided to stay at home, on my carpet!
