Jennifer Lopez in two Zhuhair Murad gowns: which was the better Oscar look?

Oooooh, Jennifer Lopez. She wore two Zhuhair Murad gowns last night, and I kind of think she should have switched them up. She wore the white beaded gown to the actual Oscars, and then she changed into the gorgeous blood-red Murad for the Vanity Fair party. The red one would have made an amazing statement on the Oscars red carpet, right? But instead we got J.Lo, with her hair pulled too tight, falling out of her hideously striped dress. Yes, you heard me. Everybody is debating whether or not J.Lo’s nip came out to play while she was presenting on stage with Camy Diaz. I don’t think it did – you can see video here. I think her white dress was just a shade too tight, and what people saw was the dress pinching her boobs, and there was a shadow effect. Just my opinion.

When Jennifer spoke to Tim Gunn, she told him: “I’ve always loved fashion since I was a little girl. I love playing dress up. Over the years… I grew up in the Bronx, my style was very kind of street and hip-hoppy when I first started out… I take that wherever I go. I’ve been exposed to so many beautiful things. I’ve evolved with that.”

Oh, and where was Casper Smart?!?! BOOOOooooooo!!!! I wanted to see Casper on the Oscar red carpet, but he was nowhere to be seen! It just goes to show you – Jennifer probably isn’t as loved-up with her facially-challenged boo as we think she is. She’s actually a little bit ashamed of her boyfriend. Although… Just Jared claims Casper was spotted at the Vanity Fair party with Jennifer. So he did get to leave the house, but he just didn’t get the photo op.

    Don’t beat me too harshly but I love both dresses. She looks like an expensive and desperate madame in both but I still love them. The weave is too much and her posing was just as hard as it always is but she looks good.

    • Vera says:

      Haha, I agree! On their own, the dresses are pretty nice. I don’t like the little nude shoulder thing going on with the white/silver/gold one, it reminds me of a skating dress, but the rest of it is nice. I just don’t like her, per se.

    • deehunny says:

      I too love both dresses. Absolutely exquisite. People always criticize her but I mostly like her red carpet dresses

  2. Nancy C. says:

    that was her areola showing. and she did it on purpose.

    • Jen34 says:

      That was my thought as well. It’s always about her.

      • QQ says:

        Agreed! Also can we discuss why a crappy low tier actress such as her has been to the Pscars TEN FUCKING TIMES and the big true A-Listers have been no more than 5 times etc?!

    • lw says:

      I don’t think she did it on purpose, but it was a definite wardrobe malfunction. It was the first thing I noticed as she came to present. I kept wondering if Cam would help her out. I actually kinda like the dress, though.

      • Jackie says:

        ya, just like she didn’t purposely wear a see through top to the oscars a few years ago. she got alot of attention then for not wearing a bra and could only be filmed from the neck up.

        she needs some new ploys.

    • Cleveland Girl says:

      Absolutely! How pathetic can you get?

  3. Reba says:

    She looks gorgeous and when she presented with Cam, she made me laugh, it was adorable.

  4. Nev says:

    yeah, your right…the RED is SPECTACULAR!!!!!!!

    stunning.

  5. hateonit. says:

    white dress. LOVE. she looks stunning. reddish brown dress I’m iffy :/ her and cam posing on stage was cute lol

  6. Lukie says:

    The red dress is definitely better.

    Am I the only person that think JLo has had a lot of lower body liposuction? That is not the butt she started with. Yes, yes, I know she watches what she eats and exercises like crazy, but that booty has had work done…

  7. Maguita says:

    I found both dresses tacky. She used to be able to pull super sexy, toeing gently the line of tacky, but not crossing over.

    Lately, or rather, in the past year, she definitely has crossed over to plain tacky. You have to ask yourself, would Kim Kardashian look the same in those dresses? And to me, the answer is yes. So tacky, no question about it.

    And really, thank you for small favors: leaving your not-so-Smart at home. Don’t think the Academy is ready for his kind of twit poetry.

  8. Asli says:

    The white dress is almost there but not quite. Like it’s trying to look good but it just ends up looking…clawed up.

  9. Marjalane says:

    WHY does she always have to sport her “fierce Latina” look? She always reminds me of Zoolander with it.

    • Reba says:

      Fierce latina? That sounds kinda racist to me? Why are you makin fun of her ethnicity?

      • Nev says:

        hahahahahahaha

        that did read a little weird.

      • Marjalane says:

        Give me a break! She’s the one who called herself a “fierce Latina”

      • Samster says:

        uh I live in NY and there is definitly a “fierce Latina look” as my BFF lets it be known she’s “Puerto Rican so she can cut a b*tch if need be”. JLO is not Jenny from the block anymore though so her bitchface isn’t as intimidating lol. I like to think of it as a confidence thing as most Hispanic women from here are absolutely gorgeous and confident in themselves so their smolder is intriguing as opposed to Victoria Beckham’s grumpy smolder fail.

    • Annaloo says:

      Where was Cameron Diaz’s “Fierce Latina?”

      • LAK says:

        THIS!!!! it always flabbergasts me that in all the threads about unrepresented Hollywood minorities, everyone forgets that Cam D IS LATINA. Maybe because she doesn’t play on it or maybe because she is blond/blue eyed and boy shaped as opposed to steroetypical dark eyed/brown haired and curvy.

        It’s also interesting that with all the noise around hollywood latinas – see Selma Hayek vs Sophia Vagera, no one including latin community brings up Cam D.

        She the lost Latina.

    • ZenB!tch says:

      Half Mexican here… I was going to be good but since you guys brought it up… she is definitely still “street” She looks like a trashy chola from the Bronx or East LA trying to glam up.

      For those of you that do not know what a chola is – it means gang girl but I am using the broader term to connote a certain look that is best described as a Latina Snooki… wait Snooki is a Latina I tend to forget that (on purpose). Big hair, over plucked brows, black liquid liner winged and all around the eye, lipliner, tacky too small clothes.

      Cam is blond but if someone bothers to ask her, she will tell you all about being half Cuban. They just don’t ask her very often.

  10. Lukie says:

    And if Camy really is banging Puffy, I would loveeee to have been a fly on the wall backstage when her and JLo were about to present.

    Omg were all 3 at the Vanity Fair party?

  11. faye says:

    Not loving the red dress, too tight around the waist, the neckline ends almost at her stomach. This would have been a horror on the carpet. something about the sleeves is making her look odd.

  12. Carol says:

    Looks terrible in both. And what’s up with the hair? Shudders. . .

  13. rlh says:

    She always looks the same at these events: tries too hard and seems desperate for attention. Geez..you’d think she could change it up a bit but it’s always about showing off her body much more than about the fashion. She’s delusional if she thinks she’s “evolved.”
    BORING.

  14. Cherry says:

    Is it me or is her skin in the red dress a completely different color? She looks almost pale in the white one, and way bronzed-up in the red dress. Strange. I like both dresses, by the way, minus the cleavage. Is the sternum happening now, did I miss that? Or is she just trying to recreate that tacky green versace-dress moment that started her career?

    • The Truth Fairy says:

      It’s the lighting. The first set of pix in the white dress were taken in the daylight and the second set of pix in the red dress were taken at night, so the skin is going to look different.

  15. eileen says:

    I agree: can’t stand the white one but LOVE the red. And I have never and will never like her. She is the queen of tries too hard.

  16. Bad Gal Addiction says:

    It’s the Oscars, not the Folies Bergere! Cover up the boobs 4 Christ’s sake. This chick is just downright tacky.

    • rlh says:

      Word! And it was not a wardrobe malfunction. The dress placement was the same on the red carpet AND when she was presenting. I am pretty sure there are mirrors and stylists backstage for the stars to check themselves before going out to present. Doesn’t everyone remember Oscars 2001: completely sheer top with no bra? She does what she can to get attention even if it is tacky as hell.
      Money does not buy class.

      • UniqJazz says:

        I remember and I hate that she thinks she is cute and innocent, like she didn’t realize it. Bi*** pleaseeee !

  17. Tapioca says:

    I love the white, but I’m eloping to Vegas with the red one!

    She looks so deliciously evil in it I’d put her as my number one favourite dress for this year (followed by Gwynnie & Emma Stone).

  18. brin says:

    I like the white dress for the Oscars, just didn’t care for the sleeves. Not in love with the red dress.
    I’m glad she kept boy toy off the red carpet. (Diva wanted it all to herself)!

  19. ladybert62 says:

    Tacky, tacky, tacky, cheesey, cheesy etc etc – both dresses are awful.

  20. Emily says:

    I had to laugh when her line about clothing was something like ‘your dress needs to be loose enough to still be a lady’ and there she is with a (maybe) nip popping out her dress is so tight.

  21. lucy2 says:

    I kind of like both, the skirt area of the red especially, but both look a little cheap on her. Too much boob.

    I hate, hate, HATE when she wears her hair like that. It always looks way too tight and all the little fly aways along her hairline are always spackled to her head. She has such a pretty face, I wish she’d find a hairstyle that worked with it!

  22. Toot says:

    I liked the red dress better.

    Here’s a link to a picture of Casper and Jennifer at the Vanity Fair party: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/27/jennifer-lopez-casper-smart-vanity-fair_n_1303714.html

  23. Lisa says:

    It’s JLO’s signature to do ultra sexy over the top…and once again…she succeeded…

  24. Samster says:

    All I can think of is she definietly is pretty enough to pull off that bun on top of head look Leann was striving for (and failed miserably at) in another article on the CB page

  25. neelyo says:

    That white dress looked tacky on the red carpet but looked amazing onstage. At least she tried to add a little drama. The rest of the dresses were all so boring.

  26. sarah says:

    she doesn’t have a body for these dresses. Someone with tiny waist would totally pull it on

  27. Marianne says:

    I like the second look better.

  28. Samster says:

    The only thing i dont like about plunging necklines like this is that a lot of women in the real world that try to copy it fail and its soooo tacky on anyone not JLO. My prom had girls attempt to pull off the neckline to the belly button and the ones who were actualy allowed to come in the prom (many were stopped at the door) evidently forgot the boob tape to hold the dress down and forgot that this dress requires a fitness standard most girls do not have. BUT I like the red one over the white because of the arms part of the white dress.

  29. Sumodo1 says:

    What is happening to J-Lo’s hairline?

    • deehunny says:

      I have the same hairline. Might be a Puerto Rican thing. Just a bunch of baby hair that will never grow out.

  30. MsGoblin says:

    Soooooo tired of her and her tacky existence.

  31. Dibba says:

    why the hell is she there?

  32. xploxite says:

    she looked beautiful and i really like the hairdo, no one wears it the way she does, she has the perfect face for it.

  33. Jane says:

    Did not care for her dress, although the white one looks nice in the back. I do love her makeup though. It’s gorgeous, especially the double wing effect on her eyes. Her bun wasn’t too big and having her hair pulled back always looks good on her since she has a great face shape and hair line. She’s a very blessed woman.

  34. Devon says:

    I love the red dress so much. I really wish she wore that first. I do like the white one too but I want to rip the sleeves.

  35. jamminatorr says:

    My hubby swears he saw nip. SWEARS.

    • ZenB!tch says:

      He did, her wardrobe “malfunction” is one of the choices for the most memorable Oscar moment on Yahoo! Angelina’s skeleg is a choice too. LOL

  36. TG says:

    She looked hideous and I was disappointed. I can’t stand her but she knows how to bring the glam and last night it was trashy. It took me awhile to figure out that was sheer paneling on her arms. I kept staring and couldn’t believe how fat her arms had gotten and then I thought okay it is the orange makeup doing that I finall figured out it was sheer paneling which looked super cheap and way to much like a figure skater dress. And when she walke dout to present I was staring at her breast too and I agree with many on here that was a wardrobe malfunction. Agree with the above that JHO and Kim Kartrashian dress alike. I won’t even go in to her overdone hair and makeup. She can really look good when she wants and it makes me wonder what she sees when she looks in the mirror. Oh and please find another designer this Zuhad guy is terrible.

  37. truthful says:

    neither dress was appropriate for theOscars to me.

    I’d prefer the red, if I HAD to choose.

  38. Mrs. Darcy says:

    Eh, I prefer the white, and of course she would wear white, she is ready to be a bride again! The hair is ugh, the dresses too samey/Dynasty leftover rail-y.

  39. Petunia says:

    She’s stunning in the red dress, although I would have preferred it without the see-through leg area. I think that cheapened the overall look. I also like the white dress if the see through sleeves weren’t see through, for the same reason.

    She has an incredible figure AND face. Wow.

  40. serena says:

    Ewwwww horrible dresses and hair!

  41. Nancy says:

    She tries too hard- there is nothing that she needs to prove other than that she lacks class- if she thinks that by dressing that cheaply it will make directors consider her for a serious Oscar worthy role- she is not going to get it.Oh wait… I hear that there is an opening for a Transformers lead- maybe she can fit- obviously she needs the attention- she acts and dresses like she is 17 or something.

  42. Beatrix says:

    enough of this woman. her self-esteem is over the top and her ego will never again be normal (if it ever was) and it is all our fault.

  43. Happy21 says:

    Every year I wonder why she is there and every year she is invited back. She has never been in a movie where her acting skills have wowed anyone – ever. She can’t act and she can’t sing so I just wonder how she gets to go to this show every year and present awards to people who are really way more talented that she is.

    I’m sure that sounds like I’m a JLo hater and I’m not really. I like some of the horrible romcoms she does. I love The Back Up Plan. She just really can’t act and I find it odd that she is taken so seriously as an actor.

    • UniqJazz says:

      She definitely can not act or sing ! Blahhh, I cant stand her. She believes her own hype and that’s sad !

    • LAK says:

      i hate to disagree especially because i agree that she’s sold her soul and pretty much just picks money over quality, but she was amazing in OUT OF SIGHT. It’s the film that made her. And it is still amazing more than 15years later.

      • Sandy says:

        I agree Out of Sight was fabulous. And the chemistry between George Clooney and her was pretty incredible.

        Don’t shoot me but I liked Maid in Manhattan too, though I thought Ralph Fiennes was miscast.

      • ZenB!tch says:

        I loved Out of Sight. I even liked the Wedding Planner* with the hideous Matthew McConnaughey (urban trash meets rural trash). She was cute once (on film).

        She lost me once she hooked up with that Diddy Doody thing who seemed to think she could sing and started wearing these silly dresses.

        *I saw it because my friend worked on it or else I would never have seen it.

    • ZenB!tch says:

      She’s invited back because the creepy old dudes who run Hollywood look forward to seeing her state of undress year after year.

  44. Dee Cee says:

    She looks hardened by her shallow life and still unfulfilled.. you know, going thru the pretend cycle it’s extremely tiring and sooner or later you can’t fake it anymore and have some kind of blow up or melt down, negative energy wears you down eventually..

    • LUP23 says:

      HAHA @ You calling people negative when you are a nasty rat that makes negative comments on here everyday. Practice what you preach.

  45. Tweakspotter says:

    Same look different event and QUIT with the “I’m from the Bronx” BS WE KNOW JLO you are just soooo street. (eyeroll)

  46. Kim says:

    Awful! Worst dressed of the night. She needs to lose (as do all actresses) that v style in front which is unflattering on ALL women. Plus she was showing areola – always classy =( And she is so overbotoxed. Terrible!

  47. Amanda G says:

    She looked like a statue in the first dress. I love the 2nd dress though.

  48. skuddles says:

    What is it with this broad and her incessant need to show her tits? The nip slip was inexcusable – and you just know she did it on purpose. Attention seeking, no class ho bag!

  49. Delta Juliet says:

    I spent her whole red carpet interview trying to figure out if I was looking at a shadow or a nip. I’m still not sure which it was. But seriously, if we are even wondering, then maybe it was cut just a little.too.deep.

    Plus, I’m just sick of JLo’s tits. Can’t she put them away for once?

  50. Addison says:

    I actually like both of these looks, and I usually hate what this woman wears. That’s not to say I would wear them but then I don’t have her curves and am quite short. In regards to her behind. I think I remember her having reduction surgery years ago much to the disappointment of many of my brothers friends as they thought it was a “shame” that she felt the needed to do this. The guys were quite happy with her before. So to all you haters FYI

  51. Maritza says:

    Both dresses are beautiful, she looked great in them. I watched the video over and over and could not see any nip slip at all.

  52. anonymoose says:

    Hate the hairdo.

    The dresses look SO “her.” That is to say, just like what an overplayed hostess who now runs a Las Vegas cocktail lounge would wear.

    Why was Lopez at the Academy Awards? Was there a presenter and seat filler shortage?

    Sternum-baring dresses seem to be what flat-chested females who are desperate for attention are wearing. I’m not liking it.

  53. Camille (The original) says:

    I don’t care for either dress.

    And that dumb sh!t that she had and Cameron Diaz did while presenting was more embarrassing and stupid to me than AJ and her silly posing.

  54. UniqJazz says:

    When she interviewed with Tim Gunn before the oscars she said ” you know im from the bronx” howwww manny times does she bring that up ! It doesnt matter. It’s like she is trying to prove something. I feel bad for her. She is empty and needs to analyze herself. She only cares about fame ! She is never without a man.

  55. Fue McCormick says:

    I get so tired of these women wearing more than one dress at an event. It seems very greedy to me. They are so afraid someone else will get the dress … and OMG! … that cannot happen! I’m bored with them all …

  56. TruthTella says:

    It’s so sad that when a female celebrity decides to go out with a younger guy or a non famous guy the media (and some people) act like they’re slumming it, the guy is only after her money the guy isn’t good enough for her while if a male celeb goes out with a younger female nobody says anything and if he dates a non celeb it’s treated like some cinderella story. JLO is an adult and is not about to let any man cheat her out of her money and Caspar IS an adult and what young man do you know that would turn JLO down?! lol… if i was straight i wouldn’t.

  57. ZenB!tch says:

    I think both dresses are beautiful works of art meant for the runway but not to be worn in public. I love the material of the red.

    J-Ho looks desperate and dated. It’s not shocking when she wears it every year.

    The lines of the pink makes her look even hippier than usual.

    Overall – DESPERATE!

  58. Jaxx says:

    Where was the nip slip? The dress never moved away from her chest. It was shadow people. Jeez, anything for some excitement or what?

    I thought the white dress was stunning. Her skin looked amazing and she sparkled like a diamond. I don’t care much for her but that is one gorgeous woman.

  59. Cecilia says:

    look at that body!! damn. I hate the hair and she looks tacky but lets face it, this woman is HOT

  60. luls says:

    She is a Greek Goddess in the white, and a Latina Goddess in the Burgundy! LOVE both looks. (On anybody else, it wouldnt have worked.) But she pulls them both off SPECTACULARLY <3

  61. Tim says:

    She looks like a high class escort. And I love it.

  62. danielle says:

    Loved the red dress. White one was dogawful.

  63. Danila says:
