SAG Awards

YARA SHAHIDI HAS HER NOSE IN ALL THE RIGHT PLACES

Love, love, love Yara Shahidi’s outfit for the SAG Awards. It’s refreshing and original – and appropriate for an eighteen year old. Yara is a force to be reckoned with – she’s only 5’3” but already has numerous fashion and beauty contracts. She’s half black and half Iranian, and as smart as she is beautiful. The Grown-ish star will be filming while taking classes for her freshman year at Harvard, where she’s majoring in social studies aimed to accelerate her activism. We are impressed.

IS LORI PETTY REALLY A TOMBOY?

When we first saw this pink parachute outfit on the SAG red carpet we had no idea who the wearer was. Who would be caught dead in this ill fitting outfit obviously made for a MUCH taller person? We figured maybe a writer who didn’t get out much. But it turned out to be ACTRESS Lori Petty, 52, who built her career in the 90’s as a tough tomboy type in A League of Their Own and Tank Girl. To her credit, she’s currently appearing in a bunch of episodes of Orange is the New Black, which means she can AFFORD to look better. There has been much discussion about whether Lori is gay or straight, but the question has never been answered….or did this strange apparel answer the question?

KRISTEN WIIG CLEANED UP NICE FOR THE SAG AWARDS

While perusing red carpet photos from the SAG awards we were struck by this picture of Kristen Wiig. First of all, she looks quite pretty – her comedy characters are usually monumentally unattractive. Also we like the simplicity of her understated outfit – she’s not trying too hard to outglam anyone, but she looks sure of herself. Best of all, the SNL alum didn’t ADVERTISE the designer – implying that she MIGHT have picked out the apparel herself. Also, no obvious borrowed jewelry. She didn’t pick up an award but the Zoolander 2 star scored with us.

JON HAMM AND JENNIFER WESTFELDT: A HIGHLY DECORATIVE COUPLE

#jonhamm #janetcharlton

Jon Hamm and his actress/screenwriter partner Jennifer Westfeldt were snapped leaving their LA home for the SAG Awards looking equally splendid. Jon has had many nominations for Mad Men, but for some reason rarely goes home with a trophy. Still, he shows up for the events, and adds glamour to the evening.

JENNIFER LAWRENCE AT SAG AWARDS: NO FASHION MALFUNCTION!

#jenniferlawrence #janetcharlton

It may have LOOKED like Jennifer Lawrence tragically ripped her Christian Dior gown at the SAG Awards, but it was all an optical illusion. When she stood up to claim her Best Actress award, she seemed to catch her skirt on a chair and open up the front seam. Women, including Nicole Kidman, sitting around her gasped. But when she stood onstage the gap had disappeared. It was actually the peekaboo design of the dress that made it APPEAR split, but it never was. Christian Dior’s little trick got a LOT of attention!
