Is it us or does Fergie look better every time we see her? The singer, nominated for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for 'Big Girls Don't Cry,' is yummy in a yellow Calvin Klein creation!
Beyonce arrives at the 50th Annual Grammy Awards at the Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles. This year, the 'Irreplaceable' diva dons a frosty Elie Saab frock that belongs at the Ice Capades.
Grammy presenter Miley Ray Cyrus looks cute in her white Celine frock, but what's up with the 'do? She may only be 15 years old, but we're sure the 'Hannah Montana' star made enough money from her 'Best of Both Worlds' tour to make an appointment with the hair stylist to the stars, Ken Paves!
Grammy nominee Rihanna truly disappoints in this hideous blue Zac Posen mess. The Barbadian beauty behind such hits as 'SOS' and 'Umbrella' accessorizes with a butchered 'do, red toenail polish, and strappy sandals.
A Heidi Klum-less Seal strikes a pose in his vibrant YSL white suit. The English soul singer and his hit 'Amazing' are nominated for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.
A glamorous Alicia Keys arrives in Armani on the arm of her rumored boyfriend, songwriter/producer Kerry Brothers Jr. The 'couple' is nominated together for Best RnB Song, 'No One.'
Perhaps rapper/actor Ludacris was inspired by Salt N Pepa when picking out his black and white Armani ensemble?
Country royals Tim McGraw and Faith Hill sport sleek ensembles. Faith opts for a single-shouldered Valentino gown, while Tim keeps it simple in a striking suit.
Grammy darling John Legend classes up the joint in a dark Armani suit and daring white ascot.
Jay-Z means serious business in his classic tux and bling-enhanced broach.
What happened to Carrie Underwood's makeover? The reigning queen of country looks twice her age in this floral floor-length gown and crispy coif.
Snoop Dogg gets all gussied up for the Grammys.
Only Cyndi Lauper could pull off peroxide blonde hair, black leather, and lace at age 54. The pop star still wants to have fun and we love her for it!
American Idol's' Chris Daughtry has a lot to be proud considering that he and his band, Daughtry, are nominated for four Grammys; however, he should be extremely embarrassed of his leather (or is that pleather?) suit. Did he forget to wear a shirt, too?
Love Like This' singer Natasha Bedingfield has many hits to her name; however, this boring purple gown isn't one of them.
Chris Brown, nominated for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration, apparently borrowed his ensemble from Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus.
Teen country queen and Best New Artist nominee Taylor Swift opts for a strapless lavender gown that accentuates her toned upper body.
Cher is fabulous and we couldn't be more excited for her upcoming Las Vegas extravaganza, but this hideous gown has got to go. We pray that it's not a Bob Mackie design!
Keyshia Cole looks cute and classy in her black 1950s style cocktail dress. We just wish she had covered up her tattoo! Nevertheless, the 'Princess of Hip Hop Soul' is still nominated for Best Contemporary RnB Album and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for 'Let It Go,' which features Missy Elliott and Lil' Kim.
Ono she didn't?! Former John Lennon muse Yoko Ono has never been one to impress on the red carpet, but she's outdone herself this year in a tacky top hat.
RnB nominee Ne-Yo dons a dapper suit and a ridiculous hat for the evening's festivities.
Bubbly' singer/songwriter Colbie Caillat brightens up the red carpet in her flirty yellow frock.
Say It Right' nominee Nelly Furtado is all wrong in her cropped blonde cut and ghastly blue gown.
Grammy nominee and former 'American Idol' winner Fantasia impresses in a flattering black gown. Unfortunately, her skunk-like 'do steals the spotlight.
Grammy nominee Mika (Best Dance Recording) is cute as can be in his skinny black pants and velvet vest, but he definitely should have left the scarf at home.
Brad Paisley poses with his wife, actress Kimberly Williams, before music's biggest night begins. The country star is nominated for three Grammys, including Best Country Album.
We simply adore Corinne Bailey Rae's blue cocktail dress, but those matronly shoes ruin the entire look.
We're guessing that Las Vegas quartet Panic at the Disco is in attendance to support their upcoming sophomore effort, 'Pretty. Odd.,' which is scheduled for release on March 25.
Evanescence lead singer, Amy Lee, nominated for Best Hard Rock Performance, goes goth in an all-black ensemble.
It looks like Fergie's mind is elsewhere while she poses for a pic with singer/songwriter Josh Groban.
Musiq Soulchild puts his best foot forward on the red carpet. The singer is nominated for Best RnB Album, Best RnB Song, and Best Male RnB Performance.
TV Guide Network's red carpet commentators Joey Fatone (N' Sync) and Lisa Rinna ('Melrose Place') pal around before the A-listers arrive.
Pop-punk quartet Paramore (nominated for Best New Artist) makes an interesting fashion statement on the red carpet. Did their lead singer, Hayley, really pair a see-thru dress with socks?
In her aqua gown, the lovely Tia Carrere brings a touch of the tropics to L.A. The singer/actress got in touch with her Hawaiian roots when she recorded 'Hawaiiana,' which is nominated for Best Hawaiian Music Album.
Who invited tragic D-lister and former 'American Idol' contestant Ace Young to the show? Can he even be considered a celebrity? We think not.
Former 'America's Next Top Model' contestant Toccara Jones turns heads on the red carpet in her tiny new figure, sultry cocktail dress, and sexy stilettos.
Mommy-to-be Melissa Joan Hart ('Clarissa Explains It All'), pictured with her rocker hubby Mark Wilkerson, proudly displays her baby bump upon arriving at the ceremony.
Former 'View' co-hostess Debbie Matenopoulos unsuccessfully attempts to look sexy as she blows a kiss to the photographers.
Actress/musician Roselyn Sanchez pairs a cheap-looking gold and white gown with strappy sandals and a beautiful smile.
Fergie and her fabulous frock should both be embarrassed to be seen near the ridiculously-dressed Chris Brown.
Perhaps RnB songstress Fantasia could ask 'Top Model' judge Jay Manuel for some hair and makeup tips before next year's Grammys.
The band members of Machine Head, nominated for Best Metal Performance, show their goofy side on the red carpet.
