The 28th Annual MTV Music Awards taped last night at Nokia Theatre in LA. From groundbreaking announcements to spectacular performances, the night certainly packed a punch.
Let’s take a look at the red carpet style, shall we?
A positively radiant Beyonce announced she was pregnant (!!!!) , thus definitively stealing the show. To bless her new arrival, she slipped on a tummy skimming blood orange Lanvin gown, accented no doubt by Lorraine Schwartz jewels. She accessorized her simple yet glam dress with dangling earrings and an “I’m a Mommy!” smile. Congrats, Beyonce, you look hot!
Kelly Rowland went for short and saucy in a black Falguni & Shane Peacock cocktail uplifted by gold embroidery and a feathered skirt. Peep toe spiked Christian Louboutin heels and a black clutch completed her look. I can’t say much about her hair (Danielle?), but she certainly looks piping hot from the neck down;) Work it gworl!
Colombiana star Zoe Saldana also opted for black, working a Barbari Bui Fall 2011 dress with Balenciaga snake skin heels. I love how dangerously low cut the v-neck is, and the leather and metal accents are dope! That said, this look is a bit luke warm at best for me. It seems a little safe for the MTV VMA’s! Cute shoes, though.
Kim Kardashian appeared fresh off her honeymoon in a sparkly silver halter Oriett Domenech gown, showing off her ample decolletage. She certainly looks like a Bombshell in this figure hugging creation. Hot!
Ne-Yo chilled backstage before his electric performance in a gold speckled v-neck brown sweater, anchored by chocolate sneaks and his signature fedora. I’m usually wary of brown people in all brown, but the varying tones look great on him. And that sweater? Hot!
Amber Rose and Wiz Khalifa posed for the cameras with Amber in an ivory playsuit and Wiz in a simple tank and light bronze jeans. Amber looks bodacious, though a pop of lip color would have made this look just a wee bit more interesting. Wiz has developed his own signature laid back style. Hey, it works.
Lastly, best hip-hop video winner Nicki Minaj seemingly threw on everything but the kitchen sink to twirl at the annual celebration. There are no words, but hmm….
Who were your faves?

forget HMMM!! There are a lot of Hell to the Nooooos lol
August 28, 2011 11:07 pm
Beyonce looks nice but it’s nothing spectacular. Kelly’s dress looks like something she would normally wear. Neyo looks nice. Wiz looks blah Amber rose is alright. Kim is wearing things similar to what she has worn before.
Ummm of course Nikki is a hot melted, recycled crayon mess. Lady gaga the hood version.
August 28, 2011 11:37 pm
Go. Away. Nicki.
August 28, 2011 11:38 pm
Kelly hmm, Zoe hmm, Kim hmm, Ne-Yo hmm, Amber not appropriate but kind of cute, Nicki hmm x 5.
August 28, 2011 11:40 pm
Interesting… there were a lot of hit a misses..
August 28, 2011 11:41 pm
Beyonce looks beautiful!!!
August 28, 2011 11:44 pm
Kim K looks like she enjoyed her honeymoon….the breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack in between. She looks like she has already gained 15 lbs of honeymoon/new marriage weight. This dress is not flaterring at all. No ma’am!!
August 28, 2011 11:46 pm
SO HAPPY FOR B!!!! She stole the WHOLE show!!!!
August 28, 2011 11:55 pm
Bey looked stunning. Not a Kim K fan, but she generally gets the sexy look right. Not this time…the fabric was not forgiving to her curves and the cut/proportion did not suit her body at all.
August 29, 2011 1:12 am
June Ambrose tweeted the VMA’s became the BMA’s… Beyoncé’s Maternity Announcement!
clearly, I am as excited as if someone in my family is pregnant. woo hoo! That baby could come out looking any way though…
also, Nicki Minaj… where is she going?
August 29, 2011 1:13 am
Yay!! Beyonce’s pregnant. Not a big fan of her music but I’m absolutely happy for her!!
August 29, 2011 1:36 am
Beyonce: It wasn’t even close to Halloween. Amber Rose: here piggy piggy….here piggy. Kim K: I will never buy discount foil paper ever. I don’t care how cheap it is. Niki Manij: Anime.
The clear winner is Kelly Roland. She looks Flawless. The dress was made for her and she ‘werked’ it.
August 29, 2011 1:39 am
I am a BIG fan of Beyonce. I’m so happy for her and Jay. These two dated..got married..settled in their careers and have planned a family together….That’s how it’s suppose to be!….She is glowing as usual!
KIM K looks a mess..you can see the line from the spanx/girdle….not dress is not flattering to her shape…
Amber’s play suit is cute…but why does her legs always look like cottage cheese?..Smh
Nicki Minay…expected…kind of cute..I guess
Anyways Beyonce stole the show…#TEAMBEYONCENJAYZ
August 29, 2011 2:40 am
Rlmao @ “that baby could come out looking either way”. Could not have said it better.
August 29, 2011 3:03 am
I agree with Tam, it does look like Kim K. put on some weight. That dress is a definite hmm. I have no words for Nicki. On a positive note, Beyonce , Zoe, and Kelly look gorgeous.
August 29, 2011 4:28 am
Beyonce looks radiant indeed and that colour looks so cheerful on her.
Am less keen on the other looks.
August 29, 2011 7:09 am
Kimmy K looks like the first season of Keeping up with the Kardashians…..I’ve seen her look 10x’s better….that dress is not flattering.
August 29, 2011 8:06 am
i dnt like beyonce like that but she got it zoes okay. nicki is becoming irratable she needs to know when enoughs enough. jersy shore kids look like themselves and amber rose always finds a way to the vmas
August 29, 2011 8:18 am
kelly rowland looks best that dress is gorgeous on her and her skin is beautiful
August 29, 2011 8:50 am
B looked great. She wasn’t sparkling, wearing performance tights, in gold or silver, or pantless. A nice change
August 29, 2011 8:55 am
I like Beyonce’s dress and love the side pony but her glow really stole the show. I saw a pic of Kim K’s dress from the back and it was much more flattering from that angle, I choose to believe she was in a hurry and never saw how the front looked. I want to love Kelly’s dress, the deep plunge is gawjus on her and the fit is great but for some reason it just feels too costumey to me. No comment on the Jersey Shore girls and Nicki
August 29, 2011 9:11 am
Beyonce looked radiant. Super happy for her and I don’t even know her ! Kim K . . . baby this dress could have worked if you would have taken the necessary precautions . . . . SPANX ! That’s all you needed . You can’t have rolls and bumps like that on hi-def tv nowadays . You know better ! Kelly looked great ! Loved the feathers ! Zoe is blah . . . like you said too safe . And nicki . . . . no comment !
August 29, 2011 9:12 am
Everyone looked stunning with a special emphasis on Beyonce looking absolutely beautiful with an expecting glow on her face…Wiz and Nicki on the other hand #fail!!!
August 29, 2011 9:27 am
kim k looks good to me. she’s actually covered up for once. she doesn’t look that big at all…alot more fit than the average woman so…what’s the deal? ne-yo…a man’s closet should not have anything sparkly…point blank period!
August 29, 2011 9:42 am
Okay, here is what I think. Beyonce dress was pretty, congrats to her unborn baby :) Umm…I don’t really care too much for Wiz khalifa ever since he got w/ Amber rose. So moving on…Nicki minaj…looks a hot mess smh. Kim kardashian looks gorgeous btw and Kelly Rowland looks nice.
August 29, 2011 9:45 am
@Tam ahahahaha girl let you tell it!
August 29, 2011 9:59 am
Bey is wearing padding? Didn’t FBD have pics of her a month ago in a yellow skimpy Mark Fast dress? Hmm…
August 29, 2011 10:03 am
Isn’t Kim married now, why was she by herself?
August 29, 2011 10:41 am
Now that I’m able to take a full look at Bey’s look, I don’t like…:/
Out of this bunch my fave is Zoe’s.
August 29, 2011 10:59 am
Looks like Kim & Ne-Yo are wearing the same material.
August 29, 2011 11:17 am
kelly looked great…hated the makeup
zoe…boring
wiz and amber…love the both of them
and nicki *sigh* first you jack lil kim now your channeling gaga i wish she would come into her own
August 29, 2011 11:18 am
I’m a fan of Nicki’s (being trini an all…) but I really wish she would do less wierd and more sexy! Bring back hood Nicki. I can stomach that a lil better than this mess we are getting now : (
August 29, 2011 12:38 pm
I need to see more pix of my gymspiration amber, but I’m thinking she either got a boob job or the cut of the playsuit is too small…great idea though…
Happy for B.
August 29, 2011 1:10 pm
Nicki, Nicki, Nicki…. she looks like the toy section of Bobbie’s Discount Store threw up all over her!!!!
August 29, 2011 1:21 pm
Love, love, LOVE! Kelly’s dress. It is a YES.
August 29, 2011 1:49 pm
Beyonce looks radiant….i actually like how Neyo looks. Hmmm not much else was poppin!
August 29, 2011 2:20 pm
Its time for a breast lift Kim!
August 29, 2011 2:26 pm
Kim looks frumpy to me… I think Neyo actually looks nice, bey looks great, and i really hope nicki is on her 14th minute of fame cause my eyes are over looking at her lol
August 29, 2011 4:36 pm
*sits in rocker* I see you all are gonna make me tell it.
I want to take a closer look at why chesticles were so poorly supported last night: Lil Lhama, Amber R(h)ose, Zoe, Kim Hoedashian – all of you are officially on Cross My Heart warning.
I won’t be addressing the couture (?!) of Nicki Wigs Almighty. I just refuse.
I do find it interesting that Bey was just light skint in the face before she announced her gut full of human – then she’s “glowing”! lmao
August 29, 2011 5:17 pm
I would wear everyone’s outfit BUT Krepshawn and nikki minaj…I think Kelly Rowland is killing it, B rocked the maternity look and Kim K was wearing the slexy look (sexy and slutty)
August 29, 2011 5:18 pm
I use to want to buy Amber Rose body but she put on too many pds for my preference….now I want to buy Ciara body…rid i cu los
August 29, 2011 5:39 pm
i dont understand whats the matter with amber’s body i see alot of comments about it…its the body of a “real women” not a stick figure
August 29, 2011 6:03 pm
Beyonce was radiant…Amber looks great…Kim K looks a mess…no comment on the rest..
August 29, 2011 6:11 pm
I wonder if Kim K is preggers…her midsection was a bit puzzling…she still gorg! Bey looked pretty…
August 29, 2011 6:59 pm
I say kelly and Bey hot!
August 29, 2011 8:52 pm
Nicki is too old to be dressing like that…she’s damn near 30!
Kelly looks uncomfortable.
Beyonce looks plain as usual, her baby bump is the most SHOCKING news she’s had her entire career.
Kim K looks boring but happy.
Zoe…hmm
August 29, 2011 10:25 pm
In the words of The Heathers’s Heather Chandler, “F**k me gently with a chainsaw” @ Nicki Minaj’s outfit. It literally breaks my heart to see her at this stage in her career dressing soo terribly. She needs to fire her stylist.
August 30, 2011 3:45 am
I’m just going to throw a spanner in the works and say I love Nicki Minaj’s ensemble. She does claim that Harajuku Barbie persona, but I haven’t ever seen her really dress to it until now. Not that I would wear it, but I have been to Harajuku (best time of my life) and she looks just like the street fashion icons you see there. It’s uplifting to see her do it right like that, even if it’s ‘wrong’ by the paradigm of fashion as we know it. Love it.
August 30, 2011 9:21 am
i’m not a huge beyonce fan, but the pregnancy belly rub onstage was very sweet. congrats to her and jay and lets hope the baby looks like her, lol. and i like the dress she was wearing because it was very demure and understated for her. she looked sophisticated.
kelly looks fantastic. zoe looks looks cute. britney’s outfit didn’t do anything for her. kim’s out doesn’t really look that good on her either, and she looks like her breasts need more support. nicki looks like a cartoon character as usual.
August 30, 2011 11:54 pm
ok i am sorry. i NEVER respond to anything. ANYTHING. ever. but this post and the other about lil waynes release party were a HOT MESS. (not the post, the fashion in it.)
i agree kelly looks nice, i think my dear kim k picked a dress that is…not doing good things for her. AT ALL. nicki minaj o_0 …why. @ a certain point u have to wonder does she really like this or is it for attention or is it just a way to not have to wear mainstream clothing?? Lord tell me there is a rational reason!
as for neyo…i have no words, if i saw a NORMAL non celebrity wearing that anywhere i would double take and not in a good way. freaking HATE that sweater.
im so frustrated right now, why do people come out looking any kind of way. and also its an award show. i get it might be “in” to look n act like you dont care, but a tank top n jeans??? n your girl is wearing a romper?? she looked better with yeezy…
done.
August 31, 2011 12:00 am
zoe looks like that dress is 2 sizes too big. no it doesnt have to be skin tight but why is it so large on her ugghhh, and im still reeling from that dress…with the train…and the horrible shoes from last week.
ok all i really wanna do now is go back n speak again about ne-yo’s sweater… -_-
September 2, 2011 4:54 am
nikki looks like she fell in the trash!
September 11, 2011 1:20 am
Lots of catastrophes…but Beyonce & Amber Rose look bomb! They redeemed this whole post.
