Giuliana Rancic in Mikael D at the Emmys: over the top or just right?


Here are some of the entertainment correspondents at the Emmy Awards, starting with Giuliana Rancic in Mikael D. It’s the Emmy Awards, I know it calls for some formal gowns, but this is too much for me. Maybe without the sparkly embroidered pattern or the tight mermaid fit this dress might work. Some of you may love this though. It could be that I’m just not fond of Giuliana. Plus her makeup is overdone and she’s wearing some bizarre colored contacts. Her eyes look so weird to me here.

In contrast Extra’s Maria Menounos got it right in navy Zac Posen. This dress fits her like a dream and I love the contemporary lines around the bodice. Her makeup is too much, though, especially her lips and eyes. Like Giuliana she’s also wearing bizarre colored contact lenses.

Nancy O’Dell of Entertainment Tonight was in green and black leather Carmen Marc Valvo. I honestly can’t decide whether or not I like this dress. It’s not bad, it’s just not great.

E!’s Kelly Osbourne had on a red full length Jenny Packham gown with cap sleeves and sequin detail. This looks like something Christina Hendricks would wear, doesn’t it? It’s the way the neckline emphasizes her cleavage. Kelly needs to ditch the lilac hair, it’s distracting from what she’s trying to achieve here.

Shaun Robinson of Access Hollywood was in black cutout Nicole Miller. It fits her like a dream, but like Kelly Osbourne, her hair is throwing me off.

    Rancic wasn’t bad. Menounos looked gorgeous as per usual.

    • karen says:

      I think they are all awful. And Rancic is clearly anorexic…please eat!

      • hunter says:

        Yeah it’s pretty bad. Imagine if the camera adds 10 pounds what she must look like in person! 0_o

      • Zigggy says:

        I know- she needs an intervention. It pains me to look at her.

      • themummy says:

        Clearly anorexic? You’re a doctor? Her doctor?

        My sister recently went through some medical stuff and she lost so much weight she looked (still does, actually) almost alarmingly anorexic. She is not anorexic, though, and is trying to gain weight back, but it’s tough with the meds she’s on. My point is that there are many things other than anorexia that can cause severe weight loss. Also, it shows how little you know about anorexia if your solution/advice is simply “eat.”

        I’m not saying she isn’t anorexic, just that there are more causes for weight loss than that and that saying “eat” has NEVER cured an anorexic, if she is anorexic.

      • emmie_a says:

        themummy: This isn’t a sudden weight loss, she has been like this for a long time. It’s almost certain by the way she talks about weight that being skeletal is intentional. She broke down in tears when her fertility doctor told her to gain 5 – 10 pounds and she refused to take his advice. And have you ever read her dieting/nutrition advice? It’s screams eating disorder.

      • Sugarrbunny says:

        My thought exactly , EAT something

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      Menounos is my girl crush. I love her.

      Nice implants, Kelly.

      • Sassy says:

        Kelly looks fat again. Not that there is anything wrong with that!

      • mayamae says:

        Do you mean you like her looks, or that it’s her personality? She’s a beautiful woman, but for some reason she’s like nails on a chalkboard for me. It stems from her coverage on the Michael Jackson child molestation trial. All told with a gigantic and inappropriate grin on her face.

    • Kim says:

      Except Kellys dress, which I dont love but dont hate, these dresses are all terrible! Did Nancy borrow her dress from a Playboy Playmate? Very cheap looking and way to young for her. Lollipop head Ranic is the ugliest woman. Sorry but she is and her anorexia doesnt help.

    • Lishka says:

      Does anyone else think kelly osborne is not natural slimmed down? How are her arms so damn chunky while her body is so thin? Can you even GET lipo on your arms and face? *SMH* If she had been exercising like she says and lost all that weight that way, then her arms too would have slimmed some, but they look chunky, not the least bit slimmed down.

      • Imqrious2 says:

        Actually you can, for both arms *and* face. IIRC i read somewhere once that Kenny Rogers got lipo on his chipmunk cheeks (I think it was his first cosmetic surgery). Oh boy, I’ really dating myself here lol.

  2. MacScore says:

    Kelly Osbourne’s personality is enough by itself. She needs to get rid of the lilac hair!

    • Kiddo says:

      Worse is that it was styled horribly. The Greek Goddess dress was very flattering, but a different, more harmonious hair color would have made the look perfect.

    • Aud says:

      Her god-awful tattoos are worse than her hair. They bring down the entire look.
      She looks like a rough 20th century sailor in a dress. Popeye.

    • Tiffany :) says:

      I think I read that Kelly said that the lilac hair is written into her E! contract. She is mandated to keep it that color for Fashion Police.

  3. GiGi says:

    Are they wearing those “sunglasses” contacts so they don’t squint? They’re reddish, maybe?

  4. Jayna says:

    I loved Guiluana’s gown on her. Maria’s was fantastic. Nancy, no. Shaun’s hair was a no. Kelly’s dress was pretty on her.

  5. DanaG says:

    Isn’t Kelly over the lilac hair yet? It just looks awful with a lot of her outfits. Some of these girls are way too skinny!

  6. Sabrine says:

    Kelly has a beautiful dress but those ugly tats spoil it every time. They are an eyesore.

    • TG says:

      I so agree. Those big arm rats are gross and take away from the either wise elegant look. Lena Dunham has the same problem. I also think tats on a soft arm only emphasis the roundness. I also don’t understand why anyone would want to look dirty or like they have something wrong with them. I prefer a clean body, though with a few exceptions some people can look hot with tattoos.

    • Jayna says:

      I agree and she has them on the inside of her forearms, too. She said one day that she wants to remove them and plans too. That was a year ago and she never did. They always ruin any elegant look she’s going for.

  7. GlimmerBunny says:

    I love Kelly’s dress, but not on her. She makes anything look tacky.

  8. neelyo says:

    Nancy O’Dell must have gotten a two-for-one deal on facial fillers.

    Rancic always looks like a praying mantis.

  9. SpaceDonkey says:

    Rancic looks malnourished.why is this not even mentioned? Have we become immune to Hollywood stick insects? She could poke an eye out with those collar bones.

    • karen says:

      Why doesn’t her husband do something??? She looks like the walking dead!

    • TG says:

      I used to think she was pretty but now she had gotten too thin and it is gross. All I see is a pile of bones. Also why does she always wear brands I have never heard of? She never wears the big name designers. I always get the feeling she gets her dressed from pageant designers.

      • taxi says:

        Rancic wears whatever she can get for free + perks. She’s well-known as a cadger. Top designer don’t care about getting shilled on her 3rd rate show. She has no draw for them.

    • Megan says:

      if you looked at a lot of the women last night they weren’t scary skinny. Some where yes but a lot were not some were actually normal size. A lot looked healthy I only remember because it shocked me.

  10. tara the original says:

    kelly always looks odd. her body/face/jaw. i dont know. she irritates me to no end becaus she doesnt deserve the job she has and she’s not attractive/fashionable enough in my opinion to sit around making fun of other people’s looks.

  11. janie says:

    Rancic looks awful.. What is going on with her weight? She looks emaciated! Osbourne can’t stand, her hair is awful. Overall, there were some pretty dresses.

  12. Josephine says:

    Rancic looks like a bobblehead, but at least she got rid of that awful, awful fake hair.

    Kelly has really thick shoulders/upper arms for such a small person and would be better off with her hair down and a better line through the shoulder on that dress. It’s not flattering her. And she’s a poster child for not getting a tattoo.

  13. quinn says:

    Ransic…a fitting last name.

    Osbourne just looks pitiful dressed up…between the bad tattoos, the hair, the unfortunate face and linebacker body. Her lack of pretty reallllly surfaces when she wears formal clothing. And, I don’t feel a BIT bad saying it, since she appears to be a Grade A b*tch.

    • jenny piccolo says:

      Osbourne? I can’t even look at her yuck face & her ridiculous clothes. My autistic brother can put himself together better than she can.

  14. Birdie says:

    Rancic’s hair looks like it is falling out and omg… she is painfully skinny. She looks ill.

  15. candice says:

    Fillers or no fillers, Nancy looks fantastic and I can’t believe she’s actually older than me. Whatever she’s had done was done well – I think – and she looks better than certain other celebs in their 40’s who prefer to go the way of the obvious (i.e. major work, or heavy, heavy make up and bright red lipstick – eeeew.)

  16. Gwenhamara says:

    Maria looks amazing. Better than most of the stars who showed up.

    Hate, hate, hate Kelly’s hair. Why does she do that?

    Rancic looks like she just escaped from a concentration camp. Eat a cheeseburger for God’s sake.

  17. Vickyt says:

    Did you see when she turned around during the 360 camera spin on E? Her back bones were poking out. She is clearly anorexic and needs help.

  18. Jessica says:

    Not a fan of Rancic either – the dress looks like some gaudy drapes you would see in one of the tacky McMansions on RHONJ. Her schtick on Fashion Police is tired and what more can you say about her weight? Why there’s a reality show about her is beyond me. Just yuck. I do like her hair. There!

  19. Anna says:

    Shaun Robinson is 52. She looks younger than all of them! I love Maria’s shape in that dress.

  20. HouseofBeatrix says:

    Did Maria always have those boobs?! Her body is banging.

  21. Alexandria says:

    I can’t really see what you’re talking about in regards to the contact lenses???? Are they maybe wearing cosmetic limbal ring enchantments? They make the entire eye look bigger and make you look “younger” (super popular in Asian countries for the “wider” eye look, sadly)

  22. Alexandria says:

  23. MademoiselleRose says:

    Rancic looked more like ET than usual with that stick body and bobble head. She’s all bones and needs to eat anything. She looks awful. But that didn’t annoy me as much as her posing the whole time she was supposed to be interviewing. She wasn’t interested in talking to anyone she was too busy posing and going look at me!

    I’ll be glad when the world moves on from Rancic and Seacrest, both are so self-satisfied, smug posers who annoy the crap out of me.

  24. Leila in Wunderland says:

    I like what Maria Menounos is wearing and I like what Nancy O’dell is wearing. I would like Kelly’s outfit too, if it weren’t for the weird dark plaid-looking things by the shoulders.

  25. Nicolette says:

    She needs to put on some weight. Strapless gowns are not what she should be wearing. The bones sticking out are not becoming at all, and her underarm area looks sunken in. A good ten pounds would make her look so much healthier. For someone who critiques people on their fashion choices on a weekly basis, she needs to look at herself in a mirror. But having known someone who had an eating disorder, I know she wouldn’t see what we see.

  26. Tig says:

    Her physical condition is very concerning. I have known folks that actually were that thin due to their metabolism, and they always told me they chose clothes that would add bulk to avoid this look. I agree- I don’t think she sees herself as the world sees her.

  27. TherapyCranes says:

    I think Kelly looks good. I love her dress. I like the color of her hair but it’s styled badly. I like her tats.

    The rest of the women do not look good.

  28. Kelly says:

    Rancic looks like an anorexic alien. Kelly looks awful. Rest look great.

  29. Lisa says:

    According to this thread, skinny women with or without anorexia, but especially with!, should lock themselves away until their appearance is acceptable. Let her back onto the red carpet in a few months when she adds a few lbs and have people poke fun at them for being fat.

  30. apsutter says:

    She looks like a freaking corpse.

  31. Sparkly says:

    I’m in the minority here, but I actually like Kelly’s hair color. Clashes horribly with her dress though.

  32. Kudzuqueen says:

    Cannot stand Rancic. Her attitude is so unattractive.

  33. Norman says:

    Rancic makes more news than reports the news.

  34. Jennifer says:

    I like Giulian’s dress. And now I am punching myself in the face because I really am not a fan of hers. I think Kelly looks great, even with the lilac hair. But it must be hot as b@lls because she’s sweating her arse off. Poor thing.
