Oh come on, Maria Sharapova. I’ve defended you and defended you but then you show up in lingerie for the Dream For Future Africa Foundation Gala? This is just too much. Dressing like a slut on the red carpet is pretty much par for the course but at a charity gala? Ugh. Just … ugh. I’m sure most of the guys looking at this post are going to be pretty happy with the photos and in the end, I think that’s all Maria was after here – attention. All the same, these photos just make me sad. Ah well. I guess I’ll just accept that I’m out of the target demographic on this look and move on.

Here’s the problem with being a fashion impaired lady writing for a website like this one. Instead of focusing on how hot Eliza Doolittle looks in these photos from the BFI Luminous Gala London, I find myself distracted by the fact that it really, really looks like she wore a night dress to this event. I could be wrong, of course because, as I mentioned, I’m quite fashion impaired but it’s distracting for me all the same. with that said, I really like the first photo here. I love the looking over the shoulder pose. Night dress or not, Eliza looks incredible. I have to give her credit for that.

Dakota Fanning is one of those young actresses I find myself fascinated by. She’s so talented, so beautiful, and so completely fearless with the roles she takes. I remember watching her in Hounddog and thinking to myself that it really took guts to take on that kind of role at such a young age. I also like the fact that she seems to only take roles she’s interested in even if they’re low budget films. So many young women her age go for the roles that offer the biggest paychecks but Dakota seems to have avoided that. It’s weird for me to see how grown up she’s looking though. She still has that youthful attitude shining through in these photos from the Met Gala 2013 in NYC but there’s a maturity about her that seems beyond her years. This is a young woman that has serious staying power in this business and I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to see her accepting a Best Actress Oscar one day.

I love that the theme for the 2013 Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, NYC was ‘punk’. It brought out some really interesting looks. Some of them were interesting in a good way. Some were not. I think Christina Ricci’s plaid gown was interesting in the best possible way. It was glamorous but still stuck to the punk theme in a way that I really think worked. I don’t really find Christina Ricci all that attractive in general but I think that has something to do with the fact that I’ve been told I’m a dead ringer for her since I was but a teenager. I guess there’s resentment there or something. With that said, I think she’s an incredibly talented young lady who has never, ever gotten the respect she deserves as an actress. I hope that changes one day.

Model Anja Rubik definitely knows how to make sure she’s the center of attention. Just check out these photos of her from the Costume Institute Gala Met Ball in New York. She looks stunning, of course, but that dress is just begging for a wardrobe malfunction. With this one, she’s really taken the whole “Jolieing” thing to a whole new level and I dunno, it works. Normally I’d say she should’ve chosen something a little less revealing but this is the Met Ball. It’s all about standing out, showing off and stealing headlines. There is a time and a place for everything. Despite the revealing nature of the dress, Anja still, somehow, looks classy. I guess I give it a thumbs up.

I absolutely love Zooey Deschanel. I have been in love with her since I saw her in “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” and that love hasn’t waned in the slightest since then. Here’s the deal though. I really don’t like “New Girl”. I might be about the only person in the world who doesn’t and I’m fine with that. There were a few moments that made me laugh but overall, I feel like it’s a huge waste of Zooey’s talent. Remember Zooey’s guest appearance on “Weeds”? It was fabulous. I was hoping for something more like that. I hear it got better as the first season progressed but I bowed out after the first three episodes. Maybe I’ll check it out again someday. I suppose that’s beside the point. These photos, taken at the 2012 Winter TCA Tour Fox Panel, show Zooey doing what she does best – being adorable. I still love Zooey. I’m just not sure “New Girl” was the best career move she’s ever made. Then again, she was in “The Happening” and “Your Highness” – two rather bad movies that somehow failed despite incredible casts. Perhaps I’m just too picky.
