No, no, no! Madonna (left) channels the tradiaiontal Spanish matador while Joy Villa (right) won the award for the weirdest outfit with this bizarre orange mesh gown at this year's Grammys in Los Angeles
It's
music's biggest night of the year, and all eyes were on the red carpet
as stars arrived to the 57th Grammy Awards at the Staples Center in Los
Angeles.
Unfortunately
for Madonna, jaws were dropping for all the wrong reasons. The
56-year-old star's ample chest was spilling out of her disastrous
Givenchy burlesque get-up, complete with corset, leather gloves, fishnet
stockings, and thigh-high boots.
Barbadian
beauty Rihanna, 26, resembled a giant cupcake when she arrived swamped
in a frothy lurid pink Giambattista Valli creation. And British crooner
Charli XCX, 22, left host E host Giuliana Rancic, 40, almost lost for
words when she turned up in a shiny Pink Panther-esque Moschino tuxedo
and powder pink faux fur shrug.
Massive: Rihanna, meanwhile, turned up in this staggeringly frou-frou pink dress which she claimed to have bought on the internet
Madonna, who at one point turned from the cameras and lifted her skirt up flash her thong-clad derriere, sent Twitter into a fashion feeding frenzy, with many likening her to a 'matador'.
When Ms Rancic told Charli XCX that she has 'really stepped outside the box', the Boom Clap singer replied: 'I hate boring fashion. I wanted to so something 80s and fabulous. I like unpredictable.'
Ex Pussycat Dolls star Kaya Jones, 30, made sure she stood out with her ruffled black gown - which was hitched up to just below the knee - and the yards of fabric that trailed behind it. Ms Jones bundled her lurid red hair atop her head and wore lashings of heavy make-up to finish her look.
Whilst Rita Ora, Meghan Trainor and Paris Hilton also got it wrong. Whilst Rita wore a bright shining silver dress, Paris wore an outfit that would have looked better at home on the set of Strictly Come Dancing.
The Grammys will be on UK TV on Monday 9 February at 9pm on 4Music (Freeview 18, Sky 360 and Virgin 330).
Traffic stopping: Joy Villa left very little to the imagination when she opted for this bright orange plastic monstrosity, designed by Andre Soriano
Sack the stylist: Whoever told Joy it might be a good idea to opt for a lavender-colored thong underneath her barely-there garment must have been having a giggle
Frock horror: Madonna's ample chest was spilling out of her disastrous Givenchy burlesque get-up, complete with corset, leather gloves, fishnet stockings, and thigh-high boots - and she even treated photographers to a shot of her thong-clad derriere
Risk taker: In fairness to the Material Girl, she didn't get where she is today by playing it safe
Pepto-abysmal: Barbadian beauty Rihanna, 26, resembled a giant cupcake when she arrived swamped in a frothy lurid pink Giambattista Valli
Hazard: Running late, the singer struggled to walk into the show in the heavy gown, and had to continually pull the dress up to avoid a wardrobe malfunction
Powderpuff pink: The strapless empire line dress featured a tiny satin bustier with plaited silver embellishment before exploding into a voluminous textured skirt that fell into separate layers
Faux pas: British crooner Charli XCX, 22, turned up in a shiny Pink Panther-esque Moschino tuxedo and powder pink faux fur shrug
Word: When Giuliana Rancic told Charli XCX that she has 'really stepped outside the box', the Boom Clap singer replied, 'I hate boring fashion. I wanted to so something 80s and fabulous. I like unpredictable'
Putting the red into red carpet: Flame-haired ex-Pussycat Doll Kaya Jones, 30, made sure she stood out with her ruffled black gown - and the yards of fabric that trailed behind it
Daring: The dress was hitched up to just below the knee and accessorized with garish jewelry and heavy make-up
Matching: Dance Moms starlet Maddie Ziegler, 12, (left) turned up with Australian songstress Sia, 39, (right) and the duo co-ordinated their bizarre outfits.
At least she can't see her haters: Both wore monochrome pantsuits with enormous choppy white wigs
Odd pair: Pharell Williams and his designer wife, Helen Lasichanh, turned up in equally odd ensembles. Whilst he opted for a white short suit, she wore a taupe Adidas all in one
Oh dear: With her bright pixie crop and the high neck-line of this dress Rita Ora looked like she'd lost a battle with a roll of tin foil
Red carpet regular: She's a regular on the red carpet and on worst dressed list, last night she looked as though she might want to win a spot on Strictly Come Dancing in this silver number
Sequin shame: American actress Pauley Perrette wore this shapeless sequin number showing off her back tattoos
All about that lace: Singer Meghan Trainor had a miss with this shiny dress with a super-short underskirt
Rainbow colours: Singer Ryan Adams and Jenny Lewis looked like a weird pairing in their equally as awkward outfits
Wrong colour: American singer Katharine McPhee's peach dress left her looking washed out
Ageing: Disney star Zendaya looked much older than her 18 years in this unflattering Vivienne Westwood dress
Short hair don't care: The young singer/actress also chose tonight to debut her drastic new pixie haircut
