Jennifer Lopez in white Zuhair Murad at the GGs: ridiculous, try-hard or great?

Just know: I was going to include more people into this post, but then I saw that Jennifer Lopez did a costume change in between the actual Golden Globes ceremony and the after-parties, and that made me stop and say: “Okay, let’s give her what she wants – the spotlight!” So here you go, a post devoted solely to Jennifer Lopez and her poor boy-toy, Casper Smart.

Casper is officially making it through his second awards season! Remember, he was J.Lo’s Oscar date last year, and God knows, she’ll probably be invited to present this year and Casper were be on the Oscar red carpet, rubbing elbows with Jessica Chastain and George Clooney. You’d think that he would have realized the situation by now: he better propose to her fast!! I can’t believe it hasn’t happened yet.

But what’s worse than seeing Casper on the red carpet of the Golden Globes is seeing Jennifer Lopez’s try-hard. Sure, she had a few good moments – like her little bit with Tina Fey, which was super-cute. But mostly it felt like… “Ugh, Jennifer Lopez is trying to get attention.” Maybe it was about Ben Affleck, her ex- lover? I honestly forgot about the Bennifer 1.0 Drama because there should have been more cutaways to J.Lo whenever Ben was mentioned. Then again, I don’t think Jennifer harbors any ill-will towards Ben –he’s the one ashamed of HER, not vice-versa.

Anyway, about the fashion… Jennifer’s wife gown is Zuhair Murad, a label which is increasingly taking cues from Marchesa in The Fug Department. I absolutely hated this gown. I did like the black gown she wore at the after-party, although she looks sort of like a zombie – super-tired, right?

    I hated that white dress with a passion and thought it WAS Marchesa. No. No. No. She is beautiful and if she’d just stop dressing so tacky and try hard, it would be lovely

    The eyebrows, the lips the teeth . . . maybe he’s a very high maintenence metrosexual…?

    Damn, her face is a mess in that black dress. That make-up looks like she spent the night drunk in a club and attempted to fix things during a cab ride.

    And why does it piss me off that Casper is wearing that stupid white jacket with no tie? Like he wants to stand out amoung people who have actual jobs and titles that their girlfriends didn’t give them.

    It’s J.Lo when is she NOT try hard? The lace dress was pretty good; she does have the body for it. I just can’t stand her duck face when she poses. I think it’s transferred over to baby douche face as well. o_O

    I don’t hate the white dress, only someone like her could pull it off though. Way to much eyeliner IMO. And Casper appears to be wearing to much foundation? Bad, bad bear..

    The white is PATHETIC and so so so try hard. I was embarrassed for her, quite frankly.

    Did you notice that when Ben won that she and Casper were among the last to sit down from the ovation? I don’t know why that tickled me so.

    The black is lovely, but she should have done something about the eye make up. It looks like last call mascara with corpse pink lipstick.

      Yes, I agree – the bridge of her nose looks smushed in, almost like it’s trying to disappear into the middle of her face.

      Perhaps it was just the lighting?? Or maybe something else. I read somewhere once about a ‘botox nose job’ where a skilled doctor can use botox to change the shape of the nose by paralyzing certain surrounding muscles. Maybe it was that.

    The white dress was about the exes: Diddy AND Affleck. Imagine the conversation between Affleck and Diddy if they were alone for a good 2 minutes after seeing her in that dress. I was begging, BEGGING for the camera to go to each of them when she was on stage…BEGGING!

    I like her in it personally. She is one of the few that could pull off that type of dress…

    I have never seen a Zuhair Murad dress I liked. All their stuff looks so trashy and cheap! What is this outfit? It’s horrible. I saw that last night and thought oh it must be Zuhair Murad! And I didn’t mean it as a compliment. Didn’t she wear something similar last year? I cannot believe she isn’t ashamed to take him to these type of things? I guess if Clooney can bring Keibler then JLO can bring Casper? Ha,

    Jennifer does have the body for this sort of dress but I think she’s getting to old for it. There are classier ways to flaunt what you got than this, especially at her age. But then again, class is not really her strength, right?
    I wonder how awkward it must be for Ben Affleck, with his new persona of respectful director and family man, to be forever associated with this trainwreck of a woman. Oh, the bad partner decisions we make when we’re young.

      I agree Lisa… she does have the body for it, but they (J-Lo AND the dresses) are getting old. She seems stuck in the styles she wore years ago, when they were sexy and fresh. Not so much anymore.

      On your other point, I kind of don’t think it was awkward for Ben at all. It’s been many years since he made that mistake… and he had his lovely wife there to support him, looking classy and gorgeous. ;)

    He’s smart not to propose. String her along, and get venerated by her in the meantime. It’s a subtle shift in power, despite her being the more publicly powerful of the two. Also,she seems to love the thrill of the beginning, no matter who with, and then get quickly bored.

    she made my worst list. she wore nearly the exact same dress, except in black, to music awards last year. and the nude part on this one, against the white, looked like really thick, obvious, gross pantyhose. come ON. and her makeup in both looks is a melty mess.

      This so much! I actually think she’s beautiful, and behind the tons of makeup and the stupid poses she has really aged well and she doesn’t look like she has tweaked too much.

      She can pull both gowns off well, but I wish she would change it up a bit and move on from the skintight “nude-illusion” dresses.

      What really bothers me is this Casper guy. They make a ridiculous couple. Imagine her with someone like Clooney. *sigh* (maybe just my love of Out of Sight speaking, but they were hot together.)

    I’m surprised she could bring Casper the Friendly Golddigger with her. Usually, presenters don’t get a plus one for the Globes – only nominees. There’s a space crunch at the venue. Unless she got one of the studios etc that buy a table to give her a spot for him.

    And I’d have sworn that gown was Marchesa. It’s hideous, and looked awful on her. Attention getting, yes, but not in a good way.

    Haters hate. Ahahaaahaa! That’s what they do. She is Latina. She likes to play up the sexy, especially with a smack talking ex and his wife in the house. She’s hot and glamourous in the white dress. However, the black doesn’t support her mom breasts very well and her make-up looks atrocious.
    As far as her BOY friend… she’s having her fun, but I think she needs a more mature man and a shoulder to lean on.

    Comes a point where it’s no longer necessary for a woman of a certain age to flaunt what she’s got just to prove she’s still got it.

    My first thought was why in the heck is SHE giving an award? The usual, she probably pushed or talked her way into being on stage, again, she has to be in the spotlight associated with top people, gag, she is so obnoxious….I’m sure that Ben could have had something to do with it or her connections with someone else, but to me, she is SO not in the same league with these people. She should NOT have been allowed to go on stage. Adding to all that, in her own right, she has almost no talent, either in singing or acting. She can take her little Casper and go off into the Sunset…

    The dress is ridiculous, try-hard and great- all at the same time.

    This is actually one of the things I like about Jen Lopez. She is bold and sexy and would not play it safe.

    Her hair and make-up is ALWAYS flawless.

    I do not like that you wrote that Ben is ashamed of her, not the other way around.
    Excuse me, but of the two, he was the one who cheated, gambled treated his “love” life” as part of his career and proved to be as lacking of any stamina and easy to influence.
    He was the one trying to blame his bad acting/ career moves on their fame and public attention (i.e. on her basically).

    I give her so much more credit than him as a woman.

    At first I hated the white dress, but then I thought about Jennifer being a Leo. It’s just her look. She goes for what she likes and owns it. The Kristen Wiig sp? Post is all about how, “she couldn’t find her look last season, and now she looks like Jen. A.”

    So, Jennifer Lopez is getting trashed for being true to her style, and just because it isn’t the same cookie cutter dress everyone else wore its automatically horrible/JLo trying hard.

    The GG are nothing more than a chance for the studios to increase profits for their films in theaters and coming soon films. Hints why Jennifer Lopez was there…

    Also, her second dress is a snooze fest, and isn’t that dissimilar from Kristen’s Michael Kors dress.
    Just saying.

    Sorry to come across as a Jenny from the block defender. She isn’t really my favorite, but she does know how to market. The Kardashians and all the other “entrepreneurs” in Hollywood would still be regular run-of-the mill rich girls if it hadn’t been for marketing geniuses like Jennifer.
