Paz de la Huerta looks pulled together (for her): still tragic, or not bad?

wenn3512895

I’m calling it: Paz de la Huerta looked good last night, at the premiere of Season 2 of Boardwalk Empire. Once again, she looked good – FOR HER. In the scope of Paz’s red carpet appearances, this was one of her best showings ever. Yes, she looks deflated and like she’s coming down off of something major. Sure, her makeup is typically trainwreck, and I think she forgot to apply lipstick after she carefully outlined her lips. But she wasn’t spilling out of her dress. Her dress fit, and it actually flattered her figure. She wasn’t a drunken mess. She wasn’t falling all over the place. So: WIN. For Paz. She’s set the bar so low, this is one of her best appearances ever. Maybe this is the New Paz – the one who is a serious actress and artist. Probably not.

Okay, the lip liner thing bugs. Did she do that on purpose, or did she just forget about applying lipstick?

Here are a few more photos from the season premiere – Mark Wahlberg looking slightly douchey and Michael Pitt, who CB likes, but who I always think looks like a toolbox.

    Paz has got a little chola thing going on, but I agree this is one of her best appearances. As for Michael Pitt, I know he is one of those affected hipster types, but come on, you put on a decent suit and screw up the shoes. Fail on you sir.

  2. Cherry says:

    Huh. She’s actually a really attractive girl. Who knew?

  3. Micah says:

    I think Paz, only has a mirror that shows her eyes, and
    top of her head.

    She always gets it wrong from the nose down.

    Lip liner…..really?

  4. brin says:

    She’s always a hot mess ,imo. Can’t wait for Season 2 of BE!!

  5. BB says:

    Am the only one who finds her make up really hot…? I know it’s trainwreck-y, I know, and yet… I still find it attractive in a weird way :S

  6. Jackson says:

    Hmmm. At least she doesn’t look greasy? That’s the best I can do. The real question is, what did she look like at the END of the night?

  7. silken_floss says:

    Michael Pitt can rock my vagina all night long UNF!!!

  8. ViktoryGin says:

    For her. I was about to give her props, but then I saw the 90s lip liner. Tacky.

  9. Liz says:

    I always wonder if she deliberately makes herself look unattractive. Remember how Jared Leto seemed really embarassed at how pretty he was, and would make himself look really, really dingy? I get the same vibes off her.

    But yeah, I like this. The dress is lovely and, frankly, my standards are so low that I can overlook the lipliner.

  10. Cherry Rose says:

    Love it. She looks hot.

  11. Quest says:

    Oh dear, your lips girl

  12. Cleo says:

    Ooh, her lips are a shoutout to the Chicanas of East LA who in turn lined their lips as a shoutout to Black Girls!

    She is amazing and her beauty really comes out as a brunette. She looks like the girl next door when she has lighter hair like her mother.

    Seriously! Google her images and check her younger photos for the difference.

    She is AMAZING.

  13. Roma says:

    @Liz: If Jared used to be embarrassed he sure flaunts his prettiness now!

    Seriously that boy looks better in eye makeup than I do.

  14. Cherry says:

    @Liz You may be spot on. But I think she also does it to distinguish herself; after all, there are plenty of flawlessly pretty young actresses out there. I only know her because of her hot mess-ness, so that about says it all.
    By the way, I love her posture on the first pic. It’s like ‘YES BITCHES. IT’S ME, FUG DE LA HUERTA. IT’S MADONNA’S 1989 LIKE A PRAYER VIDEO WHERE I LIVE AND YOU CAN ALL KISS MY PERFECTLY FORMED ASS.’

  15. alili says:

    Wow, they have an article about that at Dailymail, but their pictures are quite different so their story is the opposite : here she looks sexy, at the Dailymail she looks terrible and close to overdose !

  16. SallyJay says:

    Her body is to die for, seriously. At least she’s consistent I guess – and I honestly appreciate that she’s not the one of the cookie cutter-blonde-botoxed-to-hell-blinding-white-teeth-bandage- dress-brigade.
    Michael Pitt does nothing for me, he’s too consciously “hipster” to be my type. But he is AWESOME as Jimmy.

  17. Gretchen says:

    the dress is OK in general standards and an absolute winner for Paz. But why is she using eyebrow pencil on her lips? And for the love of jeebus, will someone please take the bronzer away from her!!

  18. Crystalline says:

    Wow, that dress looks amazing. Where has our Paz gone? That dress should’ve looked so trashy.

  19. Original Tiffany says:

    The best she has looked, but the makeup! The lip liner not filled in! I mean, yes you see that daily in East LA, but on the RC? Just NO!
    I like that she cut her hair and is wearing eye makeup, she looks better, but what a wreck with the lips!

  20. BW says:

    Her dress doesn’t fit. The underwire is halfway up her boobs. She has a great body and she can’t find a dress that fits?

    I like that she doesn’t wear a ton of makeup, but the lip liner has to go.

  21. lola lola says:

    This is what happens when actors do their own makeup. Its a cry for help, I say.

  22. Amanda says:

    I googled her images and I learned that Paz has boobs that point in 2 different directions. 🙂

  23. Hollowdoll says:

    Love both those nuts. Michael Pitt will always have a special place in my heart. looking forward to s2 of Boardwalk Empire.

  24. Calli Pygian says:

    Do not like the early 90s/late 80s hairstyle/bangs, nor the lip liner.

    Wahlberg looking “slightly douchy”? Why? Because he is wearing a suit and aging like the rest of us? That is just too silly. You must be young.

    Do tell, wtf is up with the shoes? Trying to make some type of statement? They look like wardrobe from his Boardwalk character, seriously. Does not bode well for mental state, LOL.

  25. bite me says:

    ot does anyone else think knox jolie-pitt resemble micheal pitt

  26. Laura says:

    Seeing red carpet pics of Paz makes me think her character wasn’t that much of a stretch for her.

    I will forgive Michael Pitt’s puckered pouty face only because his character on the show is so good….but really I don’t want to know anything about him outside of that because then I’d probably not like his character 😉

  27. maggiegrace says:

    I like Pitts as an actor. But those shoes! Puh-leeze!

  28. lola says:

    what has she done surgically? Cause if any of you remember her from ” a walk to remember” she’s gotten major facial and bodily reconstruction. youtube her in that movie, it’s like she bought a chin and jaw and lips and nose—the list goes on.

    Oh, and michael pitt is creepy and gross. the end.

  29. k says:

    The lip liner thing: It’s color blocking! HAHAHAHAHA.

  30. sc-wha-tt says:

    she smiled. AMAZE!
    that dress is awful and her orange skin, too.
    can’t comment on the lipstick as I see her fairly often on the street in nyc and she loves chalky beige on the lips for day as well. eugh.

  31. Kim says:

    Whats with the lip liner? Not a pretty girl – is this a girl??

  32. mzjask says:

    oh my god this woman has money WHY WHY WHY does she think it looks ok to always leave the house like this???
    ladies, this is a 1992 chola look ok i have the pics to prove i used to do that to my lips back then but you know what i had teased bangs to match and i was SO glad to see that look behind me. nude lips and cocoa lipliner. not blended. it looks like what your young daughter would put together after just getting into your makeup.
    BITCH IS TACKY. and NOT in the good way.

  33. JaneWonderfalls says:

    She looks like an heroin addict. She just has that look.

  34. NeoCleo says:

    Ms. de la Huerta is a good-looking woman who seems to go out of her way to assume the “morning after” look.

    I bet her publicist has a hand in that.

  35. Kristen says:

    She totally did that lip thing on purpose — she’s got the same color at the outer corner of her eyes too. Not a good look.

  36. Trek Girl says:

    @BB: Nope, you are not alone. I love her whole look, lip-liner and all. She looks hot, hot, hot.

    As for the way she dresses in general, well, this is her – this is her personality. I don’t think she needs to change her personality or the way she dresses just because she is a celebrity. I like seeing women that don’t do the cookie-cutter, “what’s hot now” thing with their wardrobe and make-up, especially when they are in the public eye.

  37. 4Real says:

    ODALE SHAAAAW! (Chola speak) LOL!! She did it on purpose…but I like her so it’s cool!

  38. Jaana says:

    Michael Pitt is so hot and f’ing sexxxy!!!! OMG!! He needs to be in some more “sensual” scenes in BE!!!!

  39. Thea says:

    Now this is who George Clooney needs right here. This little whippet would rock his world. LMAO. Team Paz for Clooney.

  40. mimi says:

    Pitt looks like a doughy vampire…

  41. Victoria says:

    Her lip liner sucks other than that she looks good. I think Chris Pitt needs NEW SHOES! Walhberg looks good.

  42. kh says:

    wow. that’s some 90s chola-ass lips right there.
