CHRISTINA AGUILERA IN HER “HARVEY WEINSTEIN” LOOK

It looks like Christina Aguilera is trying VERY hard to look sexy on a recent night out with friends in Hollywood, but she struck out. Even her freshly plumped lips can’t save this fashion disaster. Women rocking a menswear look can be very appealing – if one emulates the RIGHT man. A female seeking to wear male fashions successfully might look to Pharrell Williams for inspiration. Christina, unfortunately, looks more like that portly devil Harvey Weinstein than Pharrell. Huge pants and pinstripes and overcoats are not sexy.

ASHLEY GRAHAM: THIS IS NOT HOW WE WANT OUR DAUGHTERS TO LOOK

There’s a lot to like about plus-size model Ashley Graham, who is currently celebrating the fact that she signed a lucrative beauty contract with Revlon. Ashley is a successful size 16 model and sometimes speaks to girls at high schools about body image and acceptance. As a teen she repeated the mantra “I am beautiful” to give herself courage. She means well, but teens should be encouraged to value education and accomplishment before looks. Aspiring to be a decorative object is absurd. Oh, and Ashley might rethink her wardrobe – this tight and rather vulgar dress is not a good example for anyone.

DON’T UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF MARION COTILLARD

Somewhere there’s a jewelry designer jumping for joy. La Vie en Rose star and Oscar winning French actress Marion Cotillard dressed down for the Giorgio Armani show during Fashion Week in Paris. But the beautiful actress chose to wear a highly unusual single earring that had everyone talking. Her ear was actually far more dressed up than the rest of her with pearls, beads, chains and abstract objects. Our prediction: a single extravagant earring will soon become the Next Big Thing in jewelry…

DEMI LOVATO: ANOTHER FASHION FAILURE

Demi Lovato was heavily protected when she arrived at LAX, but fans still mobbed her for selfies. (see woman above) Demi’s face is as pretty as ever, but that OUTFIT! Those woolly menswear inspired pleated pants are monumentally unflattering, and the high heel stilettos don’t feminize them a bit. The big pants paired with the bulky short jacket add a lot of unnecessary heft while the sexy low cut top fails to distract from the stocky look. It’s not easy to make Demi Lovato look bad, but this get-up succeeds.

OSCAR NOMINATIONS: THE ACADEMY DOESN’T ALWAYS GET IT RIGHT

Let’s talk about the Oscar nominations that were announced today. We have a bone to pick with the Academy regarding Best Picture. It’s a GOOD thing that up to 10 films can be nominated – but some of the best movies were left OUT! The Big Sick, The Florida Project, I, Tonya, and yes, The Disaster Artist, were snubbed in favor of the less entertaining and far more PRETENTIOUS all-male Dunkirk, Darkest Hour, and Phantom Thread. (And nobody loves Daniel Day-Lewis more than we do!) We think (and hope) that Three Billboards and The Shape of Water will win most of the awards, but we’re also rooting for the swoon-worthy Call Me By Your Name, Lady Bird, and Get Out. Allison Williams deserved a Best Supporting nomination for Get Out, but there were just too many great female performances this year. Best Actor nominations are disappointing, except for Timothee Chalamet – women really have an advantage this year and none too soon.

LISA BONET AND JASON MOMOA: MADE FOR EACH OTHER

Jason Momoa, 38, considers himself the luckiest man alive because he MARRIED his celebrity crush, Lisa Bonet, 49. When he was a kid he saw her on TV and vowed to pursue her -come what may. Years later they were introduced at a New York jazz club and BOTH happened to be sporting dreadlocks. They clicked right away and have been inseparable ever since. (We saw them together at a flea market once and marveled at how huge he is and how tiny she is.) They have more than funky fashion in common – now married, they have two kids, Lola, 10, and Nakoa-Wolf, 8.

WILLOW SMITH CAN’T RESIST A GOOD RUNWAY SHOW

Stylish Willow Smith is 17 now and she’s growing up to be quite a fashion devotee. She’s only 5’7”, but she signed with Kendall Jenner’s model agent in New York and she’s already the face of Chanel Eyewear. Willow turned up at the Dior Couture 2018 show in Paris, dressed head to toe in Dior. She was seated in the front row with all the celebrities. Willow has acted, and she’s toured with her hit songs, but we predict she will become a fashion designer. Actually, she and her brother Jaden should team up and produce a gender neutral collection.

BEN AFFLECK WANTS TO MAKE A GOOD IMPRESSION

Ben Affleck is turning on the charm for his girlfriend Lindsay Shookus’s mom. Certainly Lindsay’s mother Christine has no shortage of reasons to worry about her daughter’s choice of boyfriends. Ben, 45, has been fighting his addiction to alcohol for quite awhile, and he has a predilection for gambling. Also, his wife Jennifer Garner accused him of having an affair with their nanny before Lindsay, 37, came into the picture. Despite the shadiness of their relationship early on, successful SNL producer Lindsay and Ben are both friendly with their exes and put their children first. (Lindsay has a four year old daughter.) Mom has a lot to think about…

LIEV SCHREIBER: TWO DOGS ARE BETTER THAN ONE

Ray Donovan star Liev Schreiber and his two sons, Sasha and Samuel (in the pink and blue unicorn suit) took one of their dogs for a walk in Manhattan. Liev and Naomi Watts have split, but seem to have no problem with custody of the kids. Liev was very smart to adopt TWO lookalike brother and sister dogs who were left homeless after the Houston hurricane. Naomi approved of the adoption and the pups were named Willow and Woody. Now she and Liev each have a dog at home – and the kids have a dog wherever they spend time.
