DON’T ASK EDDIE REDMAYNE TO MODEL

We all know that designers give celebrities expensive dresses and suits to flaunt on red carpets and at big PR events in hopes that it will stimulate interest in their fashions and increase sales. Celebrities often mention their designers names whether the press ask about it or not. Designers might think twice before dressing actor Eddie Redmayne because his red carpet “flaunting” expertise is minimal at best. He’s wearing a perfectly nice but unremarkable blue suit at the Motion Picture Museum gala, but he looks excruciatingly uncomfortable posing in it. Can’t figure out what to do with his hands OR his feet. (Or his FACE!) Posing provocatively is NOT his thing…

ABSOLUTE WORST DRESSED COUPLE: JOE JONAS AND SOPHIE TURNER

The good thing is that Joe Jonas and his wife Sophie Turner have similar taste, and that makes them a good match. The bad thing is that they have equally BAD taste. The pair turned up at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures Gala dressed like THIS. The first thing you notice is that they are trying SO hard to look cool. Joe’s fishnet print over the leather suit covered with grommets and buckles is WAY too busy, bordering on ridiculous. Sophie’s questionable and bulky khaki jacket over black lace tights is just plain odd. It’s not the first time we’ve seen this nice-looking couple dressed in equally unflattering outfits.

OLD AND NEW HOLLYWOOD COLLIDE AT MOTION PICTURE MUSEUM OPENING

We predict that someday the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures will give the Met Gala some serious competition- if one can judge by the opening night fundraising party. Old and new Hollywood turned up for this event last night, which has been a long time coming. (We regret that Debbie Reynolds didn’t live long enough to see her dream come true.) Lady Gaga sang jazzy old songs with a big band and made a point to chat with Cher. Of course Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson celebrated the opening, along with Katy Perry, Halle Berry, Nicole Kidman, John Waters, and Issa Rae. We heard that Hollywood’s original playboy Warren Beatty and his wife Annette Bening got a lot of attention from the crowd. One of Warren’s exes, Diane Keaton, would have been there, but she was busy shooting a video with Justin Bieber!
