Jennifer Lopez in pale Maria Lucia Hohan at LA premiere: unflattering or pretty?

These are some photos from the LA premiere of What To Expect When You’re Expecting. Jennifer Lopez didn’t even bother coming to the NYC premiere last week, so she dutifully came to the LA premiere last night, and she even brought her boy-toy Casper Smart. Although… Jennifer and Casper didn’t do a lot of posing together on the red carpet. I think Jennifer has that as prerequisite of all of her men: they are allowed to come to her premieres and functions, but they must allow her to pose alone for all of the fashion shots.

Jennifer wore this Maria Lucia Hohan that I’m really not in love with. I like the idea of it more than the execution – Jennifer SHOULD be covering up more often, I think. She loves fashion, and she loves to play around with her look, and I kind of like it when she does this 1970s style with exaggerated sleeves and dark makeup. Unfortunately, this gown is just horribly unflattering on her. The color is just a shade too light, so it washes her out. And it’s simply too oversized, and it makes Jennifer look twenty pounds heavier than she actually is. The lip color is awful too, I think. My favorite thing: that ruby ring.

Jennifer also spoke to E! News on the red carpet, but I didn’t find it all that interesting. She talked about Casper and said they don’t plan out how they’re going to work a red carpet – “He just does what he wants to do. He knows I’m working, and we just play it by ear. We don’t try to plan it too much. It’s a special occasion.” And Jennifer lets Casper speak for himself. This boy… he’s so gross.

    I hate her makeup. Way too harsh. The dress is meh.

    • thyphoid.mary says:

      I looks like she’s been mercilessly scratching the tip of her nose. She looks like Rudolph the red nosed reindeer. Uggghhh!

      All I can see is her nose, so red it’s distracting.

      • jesstar says:

        Her nose is definitely red. Crying perhaps?

        I absolutely hate this burgandy lip trend! It looks just awful on all the recent pics I’ve seen.

    Very cute

  3. nofkksgiven says:

    im biased towards jlo & 70s lounge style get ups & dark lipstick so i think shes looks awesome

    maybe its the eye shadow – but her eyes are looking cattish – i hope shes not going down the slippery slope of tweaking

  4. bella says:

    Agreed…not JLo’s best look at all. I will never get used to the Casper hate, though. Come on…he is just a kid! What do we expect to come from his lips – words of wisdom? Can’t help hating on JLo for latching on to this kid and propping him up to be devoured by the public. If he’s her love interest, keep in private. She’s making a fool of herself and setting this kid up for huge disappointment and public scrutiny. I’ve said it before – I’d be furious if I was his mom!

    • Tina says:

      Since when is 25 years old a kid? There are people married and raising their own children at 25. And if he didn’t want the attention he wouldn’t be talking to the press. This guy is a gold digger , hanger on and a disgustingly ugly one at that. But thats what Lopez is attracted to so whatever

      • bella says:

        I was married at 22, so I understand your point, but 25 today does not an adult make. Most 25 year olds today are still very immature because their parents sheltered them. It’s a known generational thing…the generation before did their kids a disservice by overprotecting them. The outcome? A very immature generation. So I believe that this kid is still emotionally immature. And if you listen to him speak, it’s obvious that he is not wordly, not wise beyond his years and JLo is acting like a fool. Just my opinion…

  5. Happymom says:

    I’m not remotely a fan-but I think she looks fantastic. Usually her taste in clothing is about as great as her taste in men.

  6. Bite me aka aniston says:

    Love La Lopez sexy face 🙂

  7. Rll says:

    “Hohan”? Didn’t know Count Crackula made couture

    • QQ says:

      ROTFLMMFAO

    • monette says:

      as a Romanian citizen like Maria Lucia Hohan I find your remark degrading to my people. If you are that stupid as to insinuate we are vampires, expect a visit from me tonight and be sure to lock your window. Ignorant blood is the sweetest!

      • Hausfrau says:

        Um, this is awkward but…”Count Crackula” is a reference to Lindsay Lohan, as is obviously the play on words with “Ho”-han. So, nothing to do with Romania, or vampires, at all actually….

  8. Kitty says:

    It’s not a good look. Makeup is too dark, hair are too messy, and she looks heavy in this dress.

  9. Jayna says:

    She looks heavy in it. Not flattering.

  10. Agnes says:

    she looks great! (is the dress too long, though?)

  11. Bloggers delight says:

    Pretty

  12. marie says:

    don’t like her make-up, in a few of these shots she looks like she’s got a cold..

  13. Aiobhan says:

    I like the thought behind the look but the execution is horrible.

  14. ALWAYS says:

    Hot look how smug Casper looks, I hit the jackpot..

  15. Crystal says:

    I love this look on her. Not a fan of the lipstick at all though. She’s hot.

  16. JudyK says:

    HATE her dress, HATE it.

  17. Scarlet Vixen says:

    She looks downright thick in this dress. Which is too bad, cuz as talentless as I think she is J.Lo does have an amazing body. She looks…not young as well.

  18. Me says:

    I think she looks beautiful. Its a different look for her and I love it, very feminine and classy. It may not be the best dress for helping her look slim but she wears it beautifully.

  19. Toe says:

    Casper looks like he could be Mark Anthony family.

  20. Dredz says:

    J.Lo looks kind of Asian with that makeup, for a moment I thought she was Kelly Hu *baffled

  21. G says:

    I’d like to see her more covered too, but this dress doesn’t fit. The sleeves and the hem are too long and the underskirt looks strange. Looks matronly instead of simple.

    I am not enjoying all these sheer skirts with panties and slips showing through.

  22. Leticia says:

    Although I do not consider JLo a tasteful dresser, she usually wears what flatters her body. I don’t understand why she would wear this dress, which hides her assset.

  23. Cinderella says:

    Something about dark lipstick and nightgowns just doesn’t mix.

  24. original kate says:

    i don’t like the dress, and the makeup is too severe, but i am glad to see her with amore natural hair color. i really disliked how much she lightened it over the past few years.

    she is a very pretty woman but she always looks really mean.

  25. Hannah says:

    Like the dress. Lipstick is too dark. Doesn’t she look like Kate Hudson in the first pic?

  26. lassie says:

    The top of the gown looks like the cover up they give you to wear before you have a mammogram.

  27. alex says:

    Its pretty. The dark makeup balances with the light fabric really nicely.

    However I still can’t stand her and wish she would just be jettisoned into space never to be heard from again. Like we should all pitch in and buy her a 1 way trip to the moon.

  28. MsLib says:

    I don’t think I would recognize her looking like this. I love the looks on AI. She is gorgeous but this just doesn’t do it for me.

  29. mar says:

    I hate all things J-Lo. I dont watch Idol and her music gets turned off immediately on my radio.

    She is so over-produced, nothing authentic about her except her big butt

  30. suzanne says:

    i couldn’t even get through the first 20 seconds of that interview. the fact that the E! people were fawning over him was disgusting enough.

  31. MissVJJ says:

    She looks like his mother.

  32. Rory says:

    Unflattering. Makes her look thick-waisted. Way too long. Ugh.

  33. Kosmos says:

    Definitely do not like this look, at least not on her. I hate that she always wears the open front look so that her breasts can always be seen, yawn….the coloring of this gown together with her makeup looks unflattering and makes her look unwell. At least she’s not wearing another skin tight number with everything showing up front. Personally, cannot take much of JLo and would be happy not to have to see her ever again….

    • Belle says:

      Agree with all of this… she decides to ‘cover up’ here, but still has to have a ‘neckline’ that plunges to the waist with her breasts hanging out.

      Also, I could be seeing things, but it looks like some fashion tape or stick on type cup showing on her right side?

  34. Booka says:

    The dress is shapeless and makes her look thick waisted. Her face is beautiful though.

  35. dj says:

    Her makeup is garish. Less is more.

  36. Vesper says:

    Although it is an improvement to her typical tacky style, it makes her look matronly. Wrong colour, wrong style, wrong makeup.

    Of course she doesn’t allow her men to pose with her on the red carpet. She is too much of a narcissist.

  37. trix says:

    i love the dress! makeup is a bit heavy.. also the white under her eyes..very kardashian. I wonder how she would have looked with lighter, pinkish makeup..more fresh and spring like.

  38. Az says:

    I have to say, he handled himself very well in that interview. For a toddler.

  39. Lisa says:

    Whenever she does that hooded lid, parted lip thing, she looks like this old guy at my gym. He always goes around like he’s judging people, but the heaviest weight I’ve seen him push was the door!
