At some point yesterday, Jessica and I were expressing hope that today wouldn’t be barren of celebrity outfits, as is often the problem during the holidays. A few hours later, she IM’d me, “Don’t worry. The Nine premiere is in London tonight — we will have PLENTY to talk about.”
First up: Kate Hudson.
At first I thought I was going to roll my eyes and smack my head, but then I realized that’s because I’m totally over Kate Hudson. Not that there’s anything wrong with her, but I don’t think she’s the second coming, I seriously doubt her magic bajingo is the reason the Yankees won the World Series, and I can’t figure out why Nine is focusing on her participation in Nine almost to the exclusion of all the more interesting people in it.
But: I love this dress. Love the bodice, the graceful pleats — they all totally save it from being just another fashion mullet. I confess, I wish she’d gone with something other than “Day At The Beach” with her hair, but the flip side of that coin is, it’s not overly Prom-y (a little condition I like to call Kate Beckinsaleitis), and I appreciate that. On the whole, this gets a resounding thumbs-up, and if I weren’t currently dying of a nasty head cold, this would make me hop to the gym and get on the leg-press machine.
Next up: Penelope Cruz.
I like this, too. What’s wrong with me? Is it the sore throat? I’m all POSITIVE all of a sudden.
Luckily there’s Nicole Kidman to fix that:
This is nice and all, but she’s in a musical! With a bunch of other ladies who stepped it up in the dress department! Whither the drama, Nic? (And, while we’re whithering, WHITHER MARION COTILLARD? Man, she would have brought it.) This is so staid. You look like a politician’s wife, getting ready to glad-hand some donors and kiss a few babies before standing at the podium looking supportive on the outside and slowly dying of boredom on the inside.
I am tempted to give her full marks on the strength of the shoes alone, though — because this woman is TALL, and she is finally wearing heels on top of it. You go, Nicole. Just next time, don’t hold back on the glam. Thanks in advance.
