Yes, that’s right: Come mid-March, The Great and Powerful Bai will lower her magic curtain to reveal the brackets for the second annual Fug Madness tournament, in which we go all democratic to determine the fugliest-dressed celebrity. We’re positively giddy ’round here at GFY HQ. Intern George has been bouncing off the walls, sleeping with last season’s bracket under his pillow, which wears a case that’s been silkscreened with a Photoshopped image of Karl Lagerfeld wearing Cher’s head on one shoulder and Bjork’s head on the other. And we are pretty sure that defending champion Bai Ling brought out that wig at the end of the eligibility period just to make sure she got another high seeding. Smart girl. She knows us well.
But this year, the rules are slightly different, and today we’re soliciting your help. Want to know why? Read on after the jump…
Because 2008′s tournament was our first, it was more of a cumulative
one, in which outfits from the past several years were all eligible.
But starting with this year, we’re running it even MORE like the actual
NCAA basketball March Madness tournament. The ONLY outfits eligible are those worn from March 1, 2008 to Feb. 28, 2009.
We’d like to evaluate This Year In Fug for each person, as opposed to,
say, going all Kate Winslet-at-the-Oscars and giving out a body-of-work
trophy. [Although we're very sure she was great in The Reader,
the Academy has a habit of making up for past snubs with a courtesy
win. I swear, next year, since Meryl Streep hasn't actually won one in
26 years, she'll end up taking home a statuette for playing an anthill
or something.] Quick clarification: You don’t need to nominate single outfits; rather, nominate celebrities themselves, but only BASED on what they wore during the year in question. Tragically this means the Peldons probably are out of the running since they didn’t go anywhere this year.
The selection committee has a daunting task ahead, coming up with the
names of 65 celebrities of both genders and seeding them in the
appropriate spots. For that, we turn to you for aid. Although we
reserve the right to make our own decisions, we’d certainly love to
know what stars you guys think deserve this dubious recognition, and
what billing you’d give them. We’re opening comments on this post
for that purpose and that purpose alone; per the usual Fug Madness
rules, any off-topic rantings, commenter-squabbles, or slurs will cause
us to second-guess this decision and close comments. Last year
everyone adhered beautifully to that guideline, and we appreciate it
immensely. It made the tournament as fun as it was.
One final thought: We’ve preemptively decided not to include Rihanna this year,
under our previously established Britney Law — the idea being, clothes
are really the least of RiRi’s concerns at this point (although Britney IS eligible again). We don’t want to be patronizing, but at
the same time, that risk ultimately was outweighed by our fear of being
inappropriately flip about what’s still an ongoing trauma for her. And we don’t want Tom Cruise swanning in to
lecture us on our untimely glibness. We haven’t studied the history of
Fug Madness. He has.
Now go forth and suggest names. Our archives and Google are at your
disposal for research purposes. We’ll announce the finalized brackets on Thursday, March 12, and Friday, March 13. Enjoy!
Comments (1319):

Jessica Simpson 12)
Sienna Miller (5)
Aubrey O’Day (4)

Be’fug’yonce
Riyanna
Madonna
Pamela Anderson
Paula Abdul
Katy Perry
Lady Gaga
Lisa Rinna
Mickey Rourke
Jay Manuel
Lisa Rinna
Paris Hilton
Carrie Underwood
Anyone caught trying to bring back 80s fashion…I wore it the first time around and look forward to dementia only to erase the memories of massive shoulder pads, bicycle shorts and lace edged leggings from my brain.
Agyness Deyn! Agyness Deyn! Agyness Deyn!
How she’s evaded her own category is beyond me. Mickey Rourke needs to be taken down a notch too, but I’ll forgive him for the giant chihuahua pendant due to sentimentality. Robert Pattinson is hot and needs to stop fugging around too.
Also, though not really famous, Leigh Lezark needs some sort of manorexia lifetime achievement award. She is fierce but her shrinkface is fugging her up severely.
SWINTON
Anne Hathaway
Mickey Rourke
SOLANGE.
Madonna – but more for the scary-weird arms than anything else
Katy Perry
and can we give some kind of anti-fug award to Fergie for having a remarkably sane – sartorially speaking – year?
Lada Gaga – clearly has an aversion of pants but even what she wears on top is ugly.
Miley Cyrus – the ripped leggings/ nylons are but one example.
Kate Bosworth
Katie Holmes
Taylor Momsen
obviously these fine ladies: Pamela Anderson, Paris Hilton, Aubrey O’Day
And YES to Mickey Rourke and Joaquin Phoenix for the men!
OMG MISCHA BARTON
I already emailed this in but I’ll post it here as well…
1. Randy Quaid
2. Katy Perry
3. Joaquin Phoinex (alright, alright, I might be suggesting solely because of the Hasidic Meth Lab beard)
4. US Congresswoman Rosa De Lauro. Do some digging on this one ladies, it’s totally worth it. Alright, alright, I’ll give you a preview… http://www4.pictures.gi.zimbio.com/Salmonella+Victims+Families+Lobby+Food+Safety+4PSxki1LGg0l.jpg
http://ci.med.nyu.edu/files/ci/u1/news_noiw_threewisewomen.jpg (she’s the fourth one from the left)
5. Mickey Rourke
6. Raven-Symone (I totally love her but her style is ridiculous!)
7. M.I.A.
8. Gwyneth Paltrow
Paris Hilton
Phoebe Price
Nicky Hilton
Nicole Kidman
Gwen Stefani
Madonna
Paula Abdul
And thank you to Heather and Jessica for the March Madness!!!
I second Solange and Mickey Rourke. And Kate Bosworth.
I nominate Solange for trying too hard not to look like Beyonce. Her style puts the UG in FUG.
In no particular order:
1. Courtney Love
2. Mischa Barton
3. Katy Perry
4. Minnie Driver
5. Lily Allen
6. The Olsen Twins
7. Solange Knowles
8. Beyonce Knowles
9. Shenae Grimes
10.Taylor Momsen
11. The entire cast of The Hills
Should’ve mentioned this in the post — we won’t do any political figures. This is Tinseltown-types only.
Thanks for the already-great suggestions. The committee is stocking up on its snacks in preparation for a looooong debate.
Mischa Barton.
Mischa Barton.
Mischa Barton.
Sarah Jessica Parker. Always.
Lindsay Lohan.
Any man who willingly grew a mustache.
Angelina Jolie.
Swinton! Katie Holmes! Miley!
Renee Zellweger
Hayden Pannettiere

Paula Abdul
Katie Holmes
SJP

Pop and Shanae (sp?) Grimes. Ugh, everything about that girl is wrong. And obnoxious.
M.I.A. at the Grammys
Mischa Barton
Khloe Kardashian
Taylor Momsen
Mickey Rourke
Lisa Rinna
Joaquin Phoenix
Pete Wentz
Katy Perry
Lest we forget:
Phoebe Price
Jordan
Lisa Rinna
and the often forgot PEREZ HILTON, who’s you never post on but is constantly cavorting around like a radioactive leprichaun with wifi and a chip on his shoulder.
How about Jessica Biel? Although she can’t do anything about her horse face….
Oh, and Drunkface McCord
Oh Heather-
I’m bummed Rosa can’t be included. She’s done some amazing work on the Hill and is on the periphery of Tinsletown as evidenced in this picture…
Rosa and Marcia Cross

Mischa Barton x 1 000 000 000
TEAM SWINTON!
Taylor Momsen
Solange – have you seen her makeup lately?!?!?!
Sharon Stone
SJP – sorry!
Patricia Field, while I’m thinking about it…
Phoebe Price!
Bai Ling, natch
Nicole Kidman
Natalie Portman
Mischa Barton has pulled out some real stunners lately
Katy Perry
Kerry Washington – it’s such a shame ’cause she’s really pretty…
Lisa Rhinna! Oh my gosh!
Lady Gaga! She needs to wear pants. And so does:
Lindsay Lohan
Jennifer Anniston for being boring.
Alicia Keys
Mickey Rourke
Philip Seymour Hoffman as a wild card.
Beyonce, of COURSE!
I have to go to bed now ’cause I have to wake up super-early. But before I do, I’d like to nominate… Jessica Biel’s hair. Not Jessica Biel herself, mind you… just her hair…
What happened to the Sev? Has she even appeared in public this year? Well, if she has I’m sure it merited a nomination.
Chloe Sevigny
Lindsay Lohan
Evan Rachel Wood (although all I can remember is her makeup right now)
Sharon Stone
Tyra Banks
Keira Knightley
Amanda Bynes
And like C.Sev, if they’ve poked their heads out this year Tara Reid and the Peldons are probably automatic entries.

Katie “Jordan” Price,
the half-straight, half-curled look CANNOT be justified
Anyone with the last name Kardashian and first name starting with a “K”
Can I go out on a limb here and say K-Fug?
Whitney Houston and her cracky finger
Tilda Swinton
Carrie Underwood (sorry, hon)
Alanis, Chloe, Katy, Lily
Aubrey O’Fug
Lady FugFug
Fuggie, er, I mean, Fergie

* Beyonce
* Patricia Arquette
* Evan Rachel Wood

* Helena Bonham Carter
* Ben Affleck
Thanks for the opportunity! Looking forward to the Madness!
SJP. So, so much. (um, those toe boots + that belted Glinda the Good Witch Oscar number…)
Solange (duh).
Amy Adams– perhaps she hasn’t fugged too much, but she hasn’t impressed either. And I think her Oscar dress looked like something SpiderGirl might wear to a formal event.
The Olsen twins!
http://troonopvolgers.web-log.nl/troonopvolgers/images/2008/05/06/maryfotosgala_2.jpg
The self-styled fashion icon Crown Princess Mary of Denmark. For wearing the curtains to a gala dinner.
I hate to give this Lady Gaga person any more attention, since similar to Bai she seems to dress wackily just to get it…but if Bai’s in, Gaga is SO in.
I too miss C.Sev this year, although every time I have seen her she hasn’t disappointed in the fug department.
I’d love to see a “best turnaround/surprisingly well played year” category too…but of course that could certainly wait for next year
Two words. One man. MANY ATROCITIES. Bobby Trendy. He needs to have rocks thrown at him. I will cast that first stone. (Oh, wait, I think this post is the first stone?)
Shenae Grimes!
SWINTON (nominated with love and deep respect)
Speidi
Solange
Paula Abdul
Bai Ling
Lisa Rinna
Paris Hilton
Katie Perry (feh)
And I agree with Henry – Perez Hilton for the men!
I would like to nominate Robert Pattinson, because he never showers!
Also, Gwyneth Paltrow for being boring, and her too short dresses.
Mischa Barton’s at the top of her game!
Solange because she thinks she’s better than fug
Katie Holmes, pity the fug
Beyonce for those hideous, predictable gowns!
Mischa Barton again for tenacity
Katy Perry
Aubrey O’Day who has high seed hopes
Gwyneth Paltrow & GOOP, no one more deserving
Mickey Rourke is the new Bai!
Accessory fug: Kidman’s face (Just say no to Botox, Nic!)
Seriously, Mischa deserves a top seed. Let them try to knock her off.

sigh. Fug Maddness is here. You have absoloutly know idea what joy it brings me. Personally, i have my money on solange taking out the crown. I think its just all the feathers. Also maybe the fact that i get great joy imagining how she is plotting to knife beyonce while she sleeps, run of with her wedding ring screaming and laughing crazily and leaving a trail of feathers as she goes.
dont ask me why. I think its just her expression.
So yeah, team Solange. Watch you back Bai…sleep with one eye open….
I’d love to see a “Google Me” category for the lesser-known (if at all) Fug-offenders; Alice Dellal, anyone?
And among the more well-known:
Debra Messing
Gwyneth Paltrow
Pixie Geldof
Paula Abdul
Paris Hilton
Teri Hatcher
Kanye West
Lisa Rinna
Solange
Mischa Barton
Katie Price (a.k.a Jordan)
Aubrey O’Day
Taylor Momsen
Mickey Rourke
katy perry – yeah yeah she’s “fresh” and “original” but that doesn’t give her a pass for her nutso outfits
aubrey o’day-whoretastic
Well, I agree with many mentioned (Katy Perry, Miley, Angelina, LiLo, SamRo, etc) but I would also like to nominate what’s-her-name from The City and Ryan Seacrest who needs to get over his fug hair. And maybe Tyra.
I strongly recommend the magnificence that is Sharon Stone, who I feel is close to acheiving a heretofore unknown level of glory. Truly, she is becoming the Norma Desmond of our time.
In (almost) no particular order . . .
Rachel Zoe
Kanye
Solange
Alicia Keys
Beyonce
Taylor Momsen
M.I.A.
Lily Allen
TomKat
Phoebe (Go, Phoebz!!!)
Down with Paris. Yawn.
Ok you peops have covered all the baddest of the bad, but here’s my list in case numbers help the nominations:
- Tilda Swinton (her outfit at the Costume Institute Gala made me laugh out loud for 10 minutes. I actually made it my desktop photo for a week so I could keep lovin it)
- Whichever Olsen twin looks like a bag lady
- Solange Knowles (ugggg)
- Chloe Sevigny
- Keira Knightly (just for that old-lady beige pansuit she wore a week or two ago)

- Pamela Anderson
SWINTON!
Mischa Barton
Paris Hilton (kill me)
Paris Hilton’s bung eye
Miley Cyrus
Maybe because I hate them all.
Roisin Murphy!! I know she’s not as famous as a lot of folks named so far, but how can anybody forget those fug-tacular pants?
Aubrey O’Day (for making Paris Hilton look subtle).
Paris HIlton (for still being tacky).
Lady Ga-Ga (for never wearing pants, and for wearing fishnet stockings over her knickers and pretending that counts as pants).
Damn Sam, I’d forgotten how much awesome Fug Madness is.
Taylor Momsen
Amanda Bynes
SJP
Melissa George
Drunkface, just for that
In no particular order:
Mischa Barton
Lindsay Lohan
Bai Ling
Katy Perry
Nicole Kidman
Paris Hilton
Padma Lakshmi
Solange & Beyonce
Jessica and Ashlee Simpson
the Olsens
the Kardashians (maybe there should be a siblings division?)
the Pussycat Dolls. Collectively.
I’d nominate SWINTON, but somehow, her particular brand of sartorial insanity isn’t really comparable with the craziness of the rest of the fugees on the list
SWINTON
Nicole Kidman (mostly for the immobile face)
SJP
Perez Hilton
Jonas Brothers
Jordan
Olsen Twins
Lady Gaga
Reese Witherspoon’s Oscar Dress
Lisa Rinna

Peaches Geldoff
Posh
Taylor Momsen
Nicky Hilton
Lady GaGa
Kanye West

It’s been said, but she warrants yet another mention:
Swinton.

Phoebe Price
Joaquin Phoenix (I’d like to see a man take it this year!!!)
Mischa “ugly on purpose” Barton
Amy Adams
Solange Knowles
Amanda Bynes
Aubrey O’Day
Courtney Love
Evan Rachel Wood
Gwyneth Paltrow
MARY!!! KATE!!! OLSEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Katy Perry
Simon Cowell and his gray t-shirts and his 80′s box cut and his moobs!!!
Kirsten Dunst
Paris Hilton
Sienna Miller
SWINTON
Mickey Rourke, although the chihuahua thing makes me hate to nominate him
Philip Seymour Hoffman
Karl Lagerfeld his d*** self
In no particular order:
Lindsay Lohan (leggings are not pants!)
Phoebe Price (her name alone says it all)
Katy Perry (Please give this girl some pants and take away her retro red carpet bathing suits!)
Renee Zellweger (Golden Globes)
Taylor Momsen (I love me some GG, but oh, sweetie, your on-screen bro was right about the raccoon eyes)
M.I.A. (I know pregnant women do crazy things, but that was no excuse for either of your Grammy ensembles)
And an honorable mention to all the men this year who decided to grow mustaches. I don’t care if it was for a movie, it’s just not attractive.
Mischa Barton
Bai Ling
Sarah Jessica Parker
Katie Holmes
Aubrey O’Day
Beyonce
Solange
Swinton
Lindsay Lohan
Lisa Rinna
Katy Perry
Shenae Grimes
AnnaLynne “Drunkface” McCord

Taylor Momsen
Lady GaGa
M.I.A.
Amy Winehouse
Kanye West
Angelina Jolie
Brad Pitt
Victoria Beckham
Vanessa Hudgens (on face “smug” ness wannabe alone, even.)
Zac Efron
Kristen Stewart
SJP for those hideous camel toe boots and that weird, little green hat she wore to one of the Sex and City movie premieres.
Pam Anderson for still dressing like, well, Pam Anderson…from 20 years ago!!!
Beyonce. My mom could sew too, but I stopped wearing the clothes she made for me when I turned, like, five!!! (Of course, the fact that was 1969, and the last outfit she attempted to make for me was a coat of dark orange, alligator embossed naugahyde lined in black fur probably had something to do with it…God love her!!)
For the men, definitely Mickey Rourke. With all those shiny suits he’s been wearing lately I keep waiting for him to ask Dorothy to get him an oil can.
I don’t know if you realize this, but your sartorial critiques are DIRECTLY opposed to ‘WhoWhatWear”s…99% of the time, I agree with you ladies.
In acknowledgement of this, please nominate some of their Ridiculous favorites & friends:
Taylor Momson (a cruel stylist’s experiment)
Erin Wasson (Taylor in 10 years, after rehab)
Lisa Rinna (too old, too much)
Mischa Barton (please stop with the minis and shorts – you have BAD LEGS)
Agnes Deyn (only because she is a model does she get any credit for looking ridiculous)
Mena Suvari (under the radar, but consistently an adventurous and terrible dresser)
Peaches Geldoff (another WWW fav)
Shenae Grimes/AnnaLynne McCord (same person, same bad fashion, no?)
Solange and Beyonce – courtesy of mama Knowles. Please, please stop wearing tightass fishtail dresses, B, it is NOT flattering to your lovely figure!
Katy Perry (the poverty stricken man’s Gwen Stefani)
Gwyneth Paltrow (for being so obnoxious. Leather mom shorts? Did you recommend those on Goop?)
Aubrey O’Day
Taylor Momsen
Miley Cyrus
Katy Perry
Mischa Barton
Olsen Twins
Sarah Jessica Parker
Paula Abdul
Paris Hilton
I can’t vote for either of the Knowles sisters because I just love them too much. SWINTON, I think, can just do whatever she wants and LiLo wasn’t too bad this year.
In some sort of fugitudinal order:
Aubrey O’ Day (alternate thesaurus definition: “ewwwwwww”)
Katy Perry (i dissed a girl, and I liked it)
Pussycat Dolls (individual fungi that grow into one mass )
S. J. Parker (used to be refreshingly kooky, now just fug)
Gwen Stefani (the “edgy” is fraying)
Bijou Phillips (a would-be Sev, anyone?)
Cameron Diaz (please –with the hair?!? Do something!)
Lady Gaga (sort of like C. Aguilera pushed to the Outer Limits)
C. Aguilera (mamma mia!)
LeeLee Sobieski (hasn’t done much lately, I just hate her)
La Stone (again, not as many fugs this past year, but the niptastic post-Oscar thing gives her at least a couple of, er, seeds)
Lisa Rinna
Lisa Rinna’s Lips (for THE WIN!)
[OK, I can't include SWINTON. Because I heart SWINTON. I get it if other fuggers include her here, but I just can't do it.]
[Or have we established that winning is actually a tribute? Decisions, decisions...]
The Kate Trifecta: Katy Perry, Katie Holmes, and Kate Bosworth.
…and Evan Rachel Wood, who had a remarkably bad/wacky year in fashion.
For those of you who forgot Phoebe Price, shame on you.
Also:
Sherri Shepherd’s Wigs
Jessica Alba
Pat Field
Cheryl Tiegs (Check her boobs out on True Beauty)
The Jonas Brothers
KATY PERRY
I will love you forever, Heather and Jessica, for SWINTON! My friends and I have adopted SWINTON! as a phrase that applies to any random thing that requires emphasis.
MISCHA BARTON!!! I mean WHEN is the last time she actually looked good?
SWINTON
maybe I am alone in this, but I feel inclined to nominate Jay Manual just for his pompously irritating hair.
I also want to commend the fug girls for their grace concerning Rhianna. Responsible fugging for all!
You ladies seem to have it nicely under control but I think you missed one:
Jennifer LOVE Hewitt needs to be added to the list for going shopping in a bedspread from the1982 Sears catalog.
And Katy Perry’s going to win.
Misha Barton
Madonna
Katie Perry
Solange
Jessica Simpson
Aubrey O’Day
Taylor Momsen
Christina Aguilera
Sheana Grimes
Agnes Deyn
Why not do a whole music bracket? Madonna for those hideous LV ads, Kelly Clarkson for not knowing how to dress like a big girl, Rhianna, Beyonce, SOLANGE.
You could also have a fame hangers on bracket (Bai Ling, Phoebe Price, Samantha Ronson, any reality “star” or reality “host” like Lisa Rhinna and her crotchtastic outfits)
As for the other two, maybe film and a “seniors” bracket?
Dear Lord, how could I forget JLoHew? And while the bedspread was certainly heinous, did you catch her as AUDREY HEPBURN? No, I don’t mean in that tv movie, I mean like the other day. Verrrry scarrrrry, kids!
Ohh my god, is the fug madness!! (i´m so excited!! )
Ok, ok, here i go :
- Solange Knowles
- Mischa Barton ( it´s just me or that girl needs to eat more ? or eat, a least.)
- Jessica Biel
- Claire Danes
* i know there´s a lot of people voting on SWINTON ( and we all can understand why) but i just CAN´T do this!! I mean, is THE SWINTON everyone! Her fugness is so sublime and elegant, and absolutely unique that i think she´s just bigger than all of this. Like a evolved human being, or something.
* this is gonna sound really silly, but i have to say that you girls, are just amazing!
Thanks for this great work!
I´m from Brazil and we love you here
DIANE KRUGER!
Also, the great leggings connoisseur, Lohan.
Sorry I didn’t read the Rhianna part above, but you could easily substitute Katy Perry and Lilly Allen. Definitely enough for 16 here.
Film: Gweneth Paltrow, Sarah Jessica Parker, Katie Holmes, Evan Rachel Wood
Senior Bracket: Paula Abdul, Madonna, Janice Dickinson..anyone that is 40+ dressing too young or under 40 and dressing too old (Taylor Swift)
Heidi – the Hills
Bai Ling
Kate Bosworth
Miley Cyrus
Lindsay Lohan
Aubrey O’Day
Jordan
Katy Perry
Lauren Conrad
Mischa Barton
Joaquin Phoenix
K-Fed
And maybe consider an honorary award for best dressed? Or Most Improved.

-Kanye (hot mess);
-Janice Dickinson
- SWINTON!
- Phoebe Price
- Mischa Barton
- Paris Hilton
- Bai Ling
- Solange
- Beyonce
- Katy Perry
- Lady Gaga
- Mickey Rourke
- Pete Wentz
That’s all for now
This is so exciting that Jessica and Heather will be reading what I write! I just want to let you two know that I love, love, love your blog! You two seem to say everything that I’m thinking in a funnier, snarkier way. So here’s my list of fuggers. Many are repeats of other people’s, but I didn’t want to leave anyone out. And I can’t believe that someone suggested my boy Cristian Siriano! He’s downright fierce!
Solange-Obviously!
Beyonce
Paris Hilton
Heidi Montag!
Spencer’s flesh colored beard
Alicia Keys
Jessica Biel
Lisa Rinna

Mary-Kate Olsen
Renee Zelwegger
Rachel Zoe- Though I did actually start to feel a but fond of her on her show
Sharon Stone- Just because she’s Sharon Stone
Ashley Tisdale
Blake Lively
Carrie Underwood (Though she is a very cute fugger)
Rumer Willis- Pull up those strapless dresses, girl!
Kim and Kourtney Kardashian
Tara Reid
Claire Danes
Alice Dellal
Chloe Sevigny-Though she has recently become a lot less fugly
Christina Aguilera
Debra Messing- She seems to be always toeing the line between fug and fab
Diane Kruger- She also seems to be alternately fug and fab
Hayden Christenson
Posh
Heidi Klum- One of the most gorgeous women, but her taste is sometimes questionable
Paula Abdul
Keira Knightley
Hayden Panettiere
Nicole Kidman
Miley Cyrus- Her outfits for the Golden Globes and the Academy Award–but none of the rest were
Melissa George
Katie Holmes
Janet Jackson
Maggie Gyllenhaal
Lily Allen
Jessica Alba- Once she got the bangs, everything seemed to go downhill
Kirsten Dunst
Madonna- She scares me. A lot.
Juliette Lewis
Kate Bosworth

That was extremely time wasting. I now have a much greater respect for the work that you ladies do. Good luck selecting the finalists!
SOLANGE SOLANGE SOLANGE.
M.I.A.
Swinton.
LiLo.
Lisa Rinna all the way.
Lily Allen.
Beyoncè. Maybe the Knowles sisters can tie in a heartbreaking manifestation of what living in a house with Tina Knowles does to you?
Somehow I forgot Bai Ling! And there wouldn’t be a March Madness without the reigning champ, would there?
Solange.
Lisa Rinna.
Aubrey O’Day.
Shenae FugRimes and “Drunkface” McCord from 90210.
Miley Cyrus(even though her Oscar dress was cute).
I refuse to put SWINTON, because I have developed such a fondness for her fug.
So many nominees, not enough spaces! In no particular order…
1. Solang!
2. Phoebe Price
3. Bai Ling
4. Mischa Barton
5. Katie Holmes
6. Madonna
7. Juliette Lewis
8. Lindsay Lohan
9. Paris Hilton
10. Jessica Biel
I’m so excited for fug madness!
Shenae Grimes (can we start having some Degrassi mockery too?)
Anna Lynn “Drunkface” McCord (the wigs!)
Phillip Seymore Hoffman (a knit cap and unwashed hair to the Oscars?)
Aubrey O’Day (what a shame! I really liked her back when she auditioned on MTB)
Also can we have a NIT bracket for the well dressed celebrities? That could be fun too! The we can honor J-Hud and Rachel Bilson, and it will be awesome!
I’d like to drop Bai, P. Price and P. Hilton. All are well known fug dressers and publicity hounds.
The minor starlets/once a tv name/gossip fodder girls are just quite boring by now.
For fashion sense that is deeply odd – SWINTON
For fashion sense that seems deeply hostile – V. Beckham
Also:
Sharon Stone
Dita Von Teese
Beyonce
…a few more, can’t think of them atm
My top Fuggers are:
1. Solange
2. Mischa Barton (For some reason I find this girl and everything she wears to be profoundly irritating.)
4. Taylor Momsen (ALSO IRRITATING)
5. Beyonce
6. Katy Perry
7. Kate Bosworth
8. Anne Hathaway
9. Lindsay Lohan
ALSO, I need to nominate Pete Wentz. He is grease-tastic. Just looking at him makes me want to shower.
I don’t want to repeat the ones that were already mentioned, but I think I only saw this name once, so I’ll say it again:
Janet Jackson – her weird space suits are unforgettable!
Now that someone’s mentioned it, I kind of miss the Peldons. Where are they? Still hawking perfume?
Bobby Trendy
Ashley Simpson/Pete Wentz
Diane Kruger
Posh
Victoria Hervey
Phoebe Price
Kid Rock
Pick-a-Kardashian (no really, pick one)
Sienna “homewrecker” Miller
Kiera Knightly
Olsen twins
Renee Zellweg-scrunchy face
Hiltons
Solange/Beyonce
Miley Cyrus
Hmmmm…
I was thinking we could have a Dawson’s Creek bracket. You know Katie Holmes, Josh Jackson, uh ummmm uh. Ok, fine, it was just an excuse to have more huge Josh Jackson photos to drool over. But I’m sure we could dig up some awful photos of Michelle Williams and Busy Phillips some where. Or even just a few of James Van Der Beek on How I Met Your Mother. (Ex here: http://www.heatworld.com/img/upload/500×400/1000037713.jpg )
Mmmm, Pacey.
SJP
Lisa Rinna’s crotch
Sarah Paulson
Mischa Barton
Nicole (Botoxia le wax) Kidman
I heart SWINTON
The Fuggery begins!
I LOVVVE it!
Top 5 Men
Joaquin, creepy fug
Phillip Seymour Hoffman, the fugging Oscar cap
John Mayer, fugging douche bag
Beckham for ffing putting up with Victoria
Perez, another ffing sad sack
Top 5 Women
Courtney ffedup Love
Sharon ffingStonie
Katie ffing robot Holmes
Pamela ffedup nasty Anderson
Victoria Beckam for ffing sleeping w/Becks
I’ll send 55 more this weekend.
Oh my god, how could I have forgotten Katie Holmes? Tom’s jeans? That suit? Lord amercy.
1. The Olsen twins, esp. M-K
2. Mischa Barton
3. Solange
4. Nicole Richie
5. Jessica Biel
6. Christina Aguilera
7. Keira Knightley
8. Sarah Jessica Parker
9. Beyonce
10. Angelina Jolie (think the hospital gowns she wears in various drab colors to red carpet events and that heinous black and yellow thing.)
Brad and Angelina, they are both so weirdly puffy. Almost like they are puppets of themselves.
there is not nearly enough men on this list, although Joaquin Phoenix and Pete Wentz are obvious starting points… i would like to nominate my beloved Russell Brand. as fetching as i find him, most people do not know how to react to his outlandish style of dress. the bunched leggings he’s taken up this year is a excellent case in point, leggings as pants is hideous on women but on men, it takes it to a whole other level. and then there is his hair…
1)Solange
2)That Momsen child
3)Swinton
4)Katy Perry
Solange (she has been working for that high seed: you know it, I know it).
Evan Rachel Wood: Babe, you’re not Dita. Drop it. And I really hate her new hair as well. It looks like someone’s transition colour as they try to get rid of the dark and go blond again.
my notable mentions:
men
mickey rourke (nothing needs to be said)
kanye west (weird preppy/80s thing – close but no cigar)
phil spector (not enough coverage of him in GFY – but he’s still walking around in something….)
women
beyonce (the only truly good look left she hasn’t done is mahogany)
cate blanchett (sometimes sublime, which makes the rest so confusing)
vivica a fox (nothing needs to be said)
ALSO – girls, any chance of a special mention for accessories & weaves??
I foresee the final four being Kirsten Dunst vs. that glum Taylor Momsen person (what is she famous for again?) and Solange vs. Paltrow. Paltrow will ultimately win because, let’s face it, she should know better, and these past twelve months have been FILLED with Gwennie fug!
I also want to nominate Anne Hathaway for fuggiest.
Lindsay Lohan, repeat-fugger (in the leggings department) must be at the top of the list
Solange, for always out-fugging her mechanical-fingered sister
Mischa Barton (what is she thinking?..ever?)
Aubrey O’ Day, because I am pretty sure she is just wearing these concoctions on purpose by this point
Miley Cyrus–I know she is young, and probably quirky and fun, but still. Ripped tights don’t belong in an outfit, much less paired with fringe boots.
And lastly, Katy Perry. Simply for being Katy Perry.
OMG! Lisa Rinna, Lisa Rinna! She’s starting to look exactly like the cat lady in New York!
Aubrey O’Day (so tacky)
Katy Perry (RIDICULOUSLY tacky)
Swinton (she’s on crack?)
Lady Gaga (trying way too hard)
Angelina Jolie (so boring!)
Madonna (we’re sick of you, get a grip)
Amy Winehouse (does this girl even shower?)
TAYLOR FUGSON
Ms. Hogan the Elder and Ms. Hogan the Younger
Lisa Rinna
Mary Kate Olsen
Lohan
Beyonce AND Solange
And – with regret – SWINTON even though my love for her is everlasting.
In no random order
Beyonce Knowles for her homages to Michelle Pfiffer’s catwoman, Etta James, Tina Turner, thre Oscar Statue and Many others.
Solonge Knowles, for her role as the usurping sister.
Little Jenny Humphery in the 1980s biopic, the Mullet Girl.
Blake Lively as the incredible Booberella.
Lisa Rihnna for the Bionic Womanniquin.
taylor momsen
1) PALTROW. Just because she used to dress well does not mean she gets a lifetime exemption. Things have gone south, people.
2) Mischa Barton, duh.
3) Can we nominate Rachel Evan Wood’s terrifying facial “dressings” ?
4) Courtney Love.
5) Paula Abdul.
6) Kate Bosworth.
*If the joys of Fug Madness are sullied by forced consumption of Phoebe Price on a daily basis, I am going to go live with Jesus.
1. Pixie Geldoff.
(Her boobs need a protection order against her for cruelty).
2. Agyness Deyn
(I get that she has a nice face and all, but the clothes! Are people blind?)
3. Alice Dellal
(I don’t get it. At. All. She always reminds me of Sara Gilbert in Poison Ivy with her dumb attention seeking undercut.)
OMG! Tom for his fugging shoe lifts!
Will be thinking about my other 54, over the weekend.
After a glance through the archives, I forgot a few:
Scarjo
Keira Knightley
Mena Suvari
Patricia Arquette
Taylor Momsen
And I really want to nominate Mariah but I can’t find enough bad ensemble from the past year, which is a real improvement for Mimi – way to go, girl.
I would hereby like to respectfully nominate the queen of frump fug: Kiki Dunst, ladies and gentlemen.
Thank you.
This is such fun!
Here are mine:
Tilda Swinton
Lindsay Lohan
Paris Hilton
Solange
Amy Winehouse (someone remind me why she didn’t win in ’08?!)
Taylor Momsen
The 90210 girls!
Dita Von Teese
Lady Ga Ga
Tilda Swinton takes the cake for fug of the year.
Why don’t we all just sequin Obama?
Vote 1 Katy Perry
It’s funny how often what you girls deem fug is rated fabulous by Vouge and ends up on their 10 best dressed of the week. Maggie Gyllenhal is a case in point.
My brain melted when a saw a year of fug flashing before my eyes:I’d like to nominate
-don’t let the pregnancy speculation distract you: Mariah”Mimi”Carey still looks like a ton of fug,anyone with the lastname Carey infact will qualify(Jim Carey wearing a his girlfriends bathing suit!!) and marey carey or whatever the person is called on celebrity rehab.
-The Hiltons Paris,Nicky,Perez
-Mickey Rourke
-Lisa Rinna
- Agneyss Deyn(or however it is spelled)
-Bai Ling
-The Knowles-sisters
-Pete Wentz
-Kanye West
-Russel brand
-Russel brands hair
-Phillip Seymour Hoffman
-the guy in the killers who wore somekind of fetsrhercoller/wings in the “are we human..”-video.
-Spencer Pratt
-Justin Bobby
and that’s all I can think of. I might holler again and complement my list..
Katie Holmes and Solange.
Allegedly hip and ahead of the fashion curve:
Agyness Deyn – Someone needs to pry the 80′s Benetton catalogs out of her hands.
Sienna Miller – I just don’t get it. Why is she even interesting?
Keira Knightley – Demonstrates that no matter how skinny you are, and no matter how good you are at making sulky scenester faces, some clothes are just frumpy. Period.
Mischa Barton – Same as above, only more L.A., and a little more crazy-person than frumpy-person.
Lisa Rinna
Miley Cyrus
Solange and Beyonce
Pam Anderson
Lady Gaga
Katie Holmes
Jessica Simpson
Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson
JLo
Kate Hudson
Salma Hayek
Mischa Barton
YAY FUG MADNESS!
Taylor Momsen
Mickey Rourke
Katy Perry
Tilda Swinton
Katie Holmes
SHARON STONE
Solange knowles
Jessica simpson
KATY PERRY!!!
Mischa Barton, Jessica Simpson and all the Kardashians
Taylor Momsen for having absolutely no respect for the beautiful clothes she gets to wear all the time. You’re 15 years old, honey. Stop pouting, take off the eyeliner, and for god’s sake GET A HAIRCUT AND FIRE WHOEVER TELLS YOU YOU LOOK GOOD.
I just want to slap her in the mouth. Always.
SWINTON goes far beoynd the mere win.
Forget putting her in competition with the rabble. She deserves her own bracket, section, loge seat, county seat, and country.
She has already crushed all the sad little girls with her regal awesomeness, and must be acknowledged!
Did we crush the Sev last year? What happened to her awesomeness?
Does she not know that we keed because we love?
Solange Knowles, Aubrey O’Day, and Mickey Rourke definitely.
Agyness Deyn possibly – for a woman who is paid to wear clothes she looks awful most of the time.
Although Lady Gaga and Katy Perry wear horrific things they seem like the type to be encouraged by negative attention and I am so sick of seeing them everywhere.
miley cyrus.
katy perry.
sarah palin.
lady gaga.
taylor momsen.
mickey rourke.
SWINTON.
agyness deyn.
amy winehouse.
joaquin phoenix.
beyonce.
aubrey o’day.
renee zellwegger.
and that one chick from the new 90210.
Taylor Momsen. She used to be so cute at the start of Gossip Girl, now she is just fug. FUG!!!
SWINTON, Solange, and Roisin Murphy.
1)Taylor Momsen
2)Katy Perry
3)Paula Abdul
4)Taylor Momsen’s makeup
5)Brad Pitt, take that frigging hat off!
6)Angelina, for being BORING (At least SWINTON is interesting and therefore I can’t nominate her. Also, I love her.)
5)Lisa Rinna
6)Mischa Barton
7)Anyone who wore sunglasses at night
8)Heidi Montag
9)Lauren Conrad
10)That crazy, crazy Tatiana on American Idol. Oh man she was annoying
I agree with (and deeply respect) y’all’s decision that Rihanna has enough on her plate right now and gets a pass this year.
But wouldn’t that concept also apply to, say, Amy Winehouse (addiction issues)? Lilo (relationship stuff, that dad of hers)? Joaquin Phoenix (IF this “I’m a rapper” thing is legit and not staged, an obvious break with reality)? And others…
Several of the multiply-nominated folks above have, you know, *Stuff Going On* so I’m wondering where the line is… if it’s a time thing, or if there’s a perception of “bringing it on oneself” that comes into play, or… ??
Solange and Swinton!
Nicole Scherzinger (please!)
Katy Perry
SWINTON
Taylor Momsen
Solange
Victoria Beckham
Lindsay Lohan
Lisa Rinna
Aubrey O’Day
Evan Rachel Wood
Alicia Keys
and the one and only Bai Ling.
1. Solange
2. Swinton
3. Lisa Rinna
4. Heidi Montag
5. Amy Winehouse
6. Karl Langerfeld
7. Gwenyth Paltrow
I nominate –
Beyonce
Solange
Taylor Momsen
Drunkface McCord from 90210
Aubrey O’Day
Melissa George
I considered Lady Gaga but it’s part of her act, so no vote there.
Scarlett Johansson
Alicia Keys
Lindsey Leggings – I mean Lohan
All my favourites or ‘non-favourites’ as it were, have been mentioned. But, here’s my list:
Lindsay Lohan and her sidekick
Joaquin phoenix
Beyonce!
Mischa Barton
Paula Abdul
Lauren Conrad
Melissa George
Mariah Carey
If there was a seperate catagory for scary fashion faces and poses:
Paris Hilton – ugh!
Nicole Kidman
Renee Zellwegger
Mickey Rourke
Lisa Rinna
Pete Wentz
Madonna and
Brad Pitt for that stash – enough already!
Taylor Momsen, for sure. For every angsty thing she’s ever worn.
That guy married to Amy Winehouse.
Amy Winehouse
Pete Doherty
Solange – solely, purely fug
Beyonce – just boring
Kimmy Kardashian
Jessica Simpson – just the highwaisteds are enough
Bai – defending her title
Jay Manuel – the hair and tan make my skin crawl
Miss J
That Lohan person.
Sam Ronson – not so lesbian chic
Anne Hathaway – kudos for handling the breakup, but no points for frocks
Madoona – too much scrawny brawny man-arms
Rumer Willis – yuck
Janice Dickinson
Phoebe Price – puts the B back in Bad.
Beckham Inc – include the kids, too.
Brits – no law of protection this year
Jolie and Aniston – just for being forgettable.
The Stone woman (although I do secretly love her for her fug)
Mischa
Drunkface
Jordan – she is a joke
Chris Martin
Everyone else in Coldplay for those St Pepper jackets
Christina Aguilera
Kanye – can ye be any more fugly with that ego?
Mickey Rourke (another Big Fug Love of mine)
Matthew Broderick – just for being insignificant and uninteresting, really
SJP – if only for those very victimy cloven hooves shoes. W.R.O.N.G.
Katy Perry – for trying WAY too hard
Jada Pinkett – deserves an honourable mention
Anyone in leggings, stirrup pants or cuffed pants…..all of them need to be shot.
Tyra – for offences relating to the above.
Gwynnie – Several reasons
Matthew McConauchy – bagman. And for not owning a shirt.
Nicole Kidman – just the head-freeze is enough
Look, I think just about eveyone has been pretty well covered and will agree whole heartedly that SWINTON is kind of untouchable. Leave the Goddess be.
Jolie, for being criminally boring.
Gwyneth Paltrow
Renee Zellweger
Solange, for sure
Lady Gaga
Jessica Beil
Linsay Lohan
Alicia Keys, Katie Holmes, Taylor Momsen, Katy Perry, MIA.
And can I just say, it is so great that you got EVERYONE calling her Drunkface. Well done, Fug gals!
Shanae Grimes!!! She went out in public wearing black floral-print fishnet tights with no skirt/pants/formal shorts! Need I say more? Ok fine. Plaid shirt! So terribly fug.
Katy Perry
Angelina Jolie
Lady Gaga
Agyness Deyn
Solange Knowles
Joaquin Phoenix
All the Pussycat Dolls
Oops. I forgot Rose Byrne. She wears ugly dresses and she always looks upset.
rachel zoe foolios!
SUEDE from project runway!
drew barrymore, oh my
solange, katy perry, typical hos
SPEIDI!
this is devilishly fun!
additionally!
criss angel
nicole kidman
maggie gylenhaal, you know i got love for you but FUGGG
It would be great to have 2 different competitions/ categories one for the Fugged Ones that are breathtakingly magnificent, without whom life would be bland (SWINTON!)– and another for the tiresome, tastless, & trying too hard (any preternaturally orange people with chest and/or cheek implants automatically go here: Rinna, O’day, Reid, Rourke).
btw, Fug Girls, you’ve been the online version of chocolate-chip-cookie-ice-cream in my week for the past 3 1/2 years. Thanks Heather & Jessica!
I know you said Hollywood-types only, but does Donna Karan count? Did you see those hideous diapery hammerpant things she had during fashion week? If diapery hammer pants make a comeback, it’s all her fault. I’m scared.
Oh, and the other commenters beat me to everyone else.
it has been almost a year since i started reading gfy because i started during fug madness
good times
so here are my fugnimations:
Ladies
1.Solange Knowles for those crazy fur boots…and everything else actually
2.Misha Barton…she seems to have discovered her aunt’s closet full of 70s clothes and powder shampoo lately
3.SJP…hoof boots?…rainforest hat?…she needs to let SATC go already
4.Paris Hilton…she should look up Ivanka for lessons on how an heiress should dress
5.Lisa Rinna…she should have stuck to the leopard print to show how “cougary” she is instead of flashing her “near crotch” to the world
6.Katy Perry…no pants EVER, dress with eyes on her boobs…i get that she wants to channel a pin up girl, but she’s trying too hard
Gents
1.Joaquin Phoenix…grizzly adams called…he wants his look back
2.Brad Pitt…loose the porn stache
3.Kanye West…for re-popularizing the sunglasses that came free in cracker jack boxes
4.Mickey Rourke…loose the white suits and 80′s glam band hair…you are old enough to rock a “distinguished look” now
It’s gotta be Chloe Sevigny. She is the queen of all hipsters in Brooklyn. They frequently commit crimes of fashion and hurt my eyes.
Mary-Kate. A thousand times again, Mary-Kate.
Beyonce, Taylor Momsen, Katie Holmes, Katy Perry, SJP.
women who don’t wear pants – katy perry, lady gaga and miley cyrus.
Although I already voted for her, I now wholly agree with an above-mentioned categorization idea – innately Grand (SWINTON, Stone, JLo, etc) and Fakely weird (Rinna, Rourke, O’Day, etc).
And, yep – thanks for the site and the Madness!
Least Favorite and absolute fugliest:
Evan Rachel Wood.
She seriously was not on the blog enough during her Dita/GothicCatLady phase. She’s only just now pulled herself together! I hope it lasts.
Just looking at her overdyed hair and all that cakey makeup kind of makes me go “bleh”. It was serious stuff! Definitely not fun like SWINTON or Lady Gaga, who just make me crack up and root for the crazy.
You know, all those Alicia Keys crotchy pantsuits were pretty hard stuff too. They were a little depressing.
Okay, for the men I nominate
Mickey Rourke
Bobby Trendy
Joaquin Phoenix
Robert Pattinson (soap, water, rinse, repeat)
For the ladies I nominate
Evan Rachel Wood (up until recently)
Drunkface McCord
Christina Aguilera
Blake Lively
Pussycat Dolls…all of them
Solange
Paris Hilton
Beyonce
Madonna
SJP
Jessica Biel
Lisa Rinna
Tilda Swinton
Katy Perry
Taylor Momsen
Lindsey Lohan
Aubrey O’Day
Gwyneth Paltrow
Mischa Barton
Katie Holmes
Lady GaGa
Jessica Simpson
Jessica Alba
and of course Bai Ling and Phoebe Price
Agyness Deyn.
1. Based on the comments so far, it looks like a SWINTON/Solange final round death match, with which I can’t say I’m all that displeased. I say Swinton wins on the Bai Ling “we love your crazy ass” vote.
2. I’m sad that people are counting out Bai Ling already. This was far and away her strongest fug year ever. I know she’ll have a bit of winner backlash but I look forward to seeing her go very, very far.
3. My big nom who’s not getting a lot of commenter love is Maggie Gyllenhaal. I love her to death and think she’s incredibly talented, but The Dark Knight gave her plenty of excuse to just parade her absolute worst around the red carpet. Plus the fur vest. That one was a freebie.
I think we’re forgetting the lowest, flattest and most unsupported boobage in Hollywood…
RUMER WILLIS
Not that she needs anymore unearned attention but has she ever worn anything flattering? Nope, only flattening….
Jessica Simpson’s high waisted jeans–at any weight.
Lady Gaga’s late night talk show performance with tan dance tights OVER a thong.
Evan Rachel Wood’s face during, shortly after and now during again, her Marilyn Manson thing.
Scarlett Johannsen’s smooshed boobs.
SWINTON, more because I want MORE PHOTOS than because I think she’s fug. I think of her the way you gals think of Bjork. Heck, I think you gals are starting to think of her the way you think of Bjork. =)
Actually fug nominees: Paris Hilton, Katy Perry (even if she dressed fairly well I think I could bring myself to nominate her on her music alone), Amy Winehouse, The Pussycat Dolls as a unit, Speidi as a unit (I was disappointed that they didn’t make it last year), Lisa Rinna, Mickey Rourke, Angelina Jolie for letting her hotness go to waste, and Bai Ling so she can defend her title, of course.
Looking over my list, it seems that people who I find “fugly of spirit” (as it was termed last year, I think in reference to Speidi) are the ones that really grate me. People that I like personally get a bit of a pass from me, lol.
And while I respect you not nominating Rihanna on personal grounds, I don’t think she really would have deserved the nomination anyway. Granted she sometimes wears wack stuff out and about on her personal time, but I generally really love the stuff she wears for actual appearances.
The Most Overrated “Style Icon” Award MUST go to Agyness Deyn. Please…?
Hello, Taylor Momsen!! Solagne, Agyness Deyn (okay, she’s a model – she can pull almost everything up, but i mean… look at what she has worn! crazy ass fug all over!), sarah jessica parker (i’m still not over what she wore to the premiere of the satc movie, and OMG her smashed boobs at the oscars!
SWINTON! SWINTON! SWINTON!
She can head up the Hollywood Royalty category, also featuring Cate Blanchett, Nicole Kidman, Brangelina, Sharon Stone, and anybody else who should know (and pay for) better but apparently doesn’t.
SWINTON
SWINTON! I cherish thee.
Lisa Rinna
Kate Winslet
Agyness Deyn
Beyonce
Kate Bosworth
Gwyneth Paltrow
Bai Ling and the Pussycat Dolls should be exempt from regular categories
!
Phoebe Price
Mischa Barton
Marisa Tomei
Kate Winslet
Heidi Klum
Kate Hudson
Courtney Love
and SWINTON
oh….Meryl Streep.
Allie. Love your website.
Bai Ling
Mary Kate Ashley Olsen
Swinton
SJP (OMG!!!!!!)
Joaquin Phoenix
Solange
Chloe Sevigny
Peaches Geldorf
Angelina (can you have a dull category? Biel would also belong here)
LiLo
SJP
Beyonce
Kate Hudson
i think SWINTON should be nominated just because she is so amazing and makes “fugly” cool.
other nominees:
drunkface mccord
solange
bai ling
mickey rourke
joaquin phoenix
SJP (Oscar dress, hello?!)
Katy Perry
Lisa Rinna
Mischa Barton
Janet Jackson
Lilly Allen
Madonna and
Robert Pattinson
…all great fuggers!
Because I love her (and she does make fug cool): SWINTON !!!!
Because I dislike them intensely : The Pussycat Dolls and Jessica Simpson
Because she is the Queen of Fug : Bai Ling
I was shocked and confused that Mischa Barton wasn’t nominated, but then my faith in humanity was restored as I scrolled down to the 12th comment…thank you Scarlette!
Also, how can even consider not nominating Lindsey Leggings Lohan?
Wow, finally a chance to comment on GFY!
)
Cannot resist!
Bai Ling of course
Kirsten Dunst
Chloe Sevigny (although she’s improving lately, but she deserves a lifetime achievement award, no?)
Swinton
Pussycat Dolls (altogether, I never remember the names, except Nicole and Melody)
Olsens
SJP
Lilly Allen
Maggie Gyllenhaal
Joaquin Phoenix
Beyonce and Solange (all the comments you left about Solange were priceless, I was laughing my ass off)
Joaquin Phoenix
Chloe S
Jennifer Connolly – didn’t she have some weird ones this year?
Bai Ling
Misha Barton
Maggie Gyllenthal(how to spell?)
Agyness Deyn
Samantha Ronson
Mickey Rourke
Joaquin Phoenix
Taylor Momson
Mischa Barton
and Katie Holmes
Solange should NOT be nominated, as her horrible choices are obviously a desperate attempt for attention. She probably prints out your posts about her and puts them in a scrapbook.
I have to say, I hardcore love reading GFY everyday…
I nominate Amanda Bynes for all the crap she’s been pulling lately, particularly with trying to look like Mariah Carey in the scarier Mimi days…
Courtney Love and Tilda Swinton. Two sides of the same coin. They don’t even have to TRY.
Gwyneth Paltrow above all others because she truly considers herself to be above all others, evidenced by her GOOP site (the ultimate in inner fug). Oh, and she fugs every photo op she has.
Robert Patterson…he looks more suited for Jacob’s role then Edward’s.
-Misha Barton
-Lindsey Lohan
-Paris Hilton
-Paula Abdul
-Samantha Ronson
-SJP
SPEIDI! LOL!
A moniker that surpasses Bennifer and TomKat! Whitlin, did you come up with that? I’ve never heard it before, but it’s Awesome… And they’re so very fug, if for no other reason than their blatant need for publicity. I foresee them adopting the Spiderman theme song for their own purposes after discovering their new nickname.
Other noms:
SJP
Nicole Kidman
ZELLWEGER
Gwyneth Paltrow
Mischa Barton
As for Katie Holmes and Joaquin Phoenix, perhaps they should also get the Rihanna pass? Clothes are really the least of their concerns at this point, too.
I think this year has brounght out particular FUG from:
Mischa Barton
Solange
Katy Perry
Momsen
Swinton
Lisa Rinna
Lilly Allen
Mickey Rourke
Victoria Beckham
And of course:
Crazy-Pants Bai Ling
No-Pants Lady Gaga
Sometimes-Pants Courtney Love
“I Wish I Was a Bear” Joaquin
‘kay. Most of my picks have already been mentioned, so I won’t belabor the point by repeating them. HOWEVER. Can we please add Matthew Broderick (or, realistically, Matthew Broderick’s frosting effing hair) to the mix?
I’d also like to nominate Brangelina — as a team — for crimes against fuggmanity. It’s not so much that they *themselves* have been such promiscuous or serious fuggers as it is that their fuggery has a terrible and devastating trickle-down effect. (Like the mustaches. And shapeless dresses.)
And, finally, I’d like to second KPOD’s suggestion (way up top) that you offer some version of the Well-Played, Successful-Battling-of-the-Fug Awards. Sort of a “congratulations for not dressing like a wack job this year; we’re so proud” award. For example, Maggie Gyllenhaal looked remarkably good this year, as did folks like Jennifer Hudson, Cynthia Nixon, Anne Hathaway, and — let’s face it — even people like Paris Hilton and Brittney Spears *may* have had the good outweigh the bad. I also agree with KPOD’s nomination for Fergie in this catagory. Girl looked twelve times less crazy this year than in previous ones. It could be some sort of post-Madness love fest!
Ooooh, I forgot. Also throw in the whole cast of Sex and the City. In the Fug Category, obviously.
Lisa Rinna
Courtney Love
Katie Holmes (it pains me, but that 6 weeks of Denimgate was hideous)
Sharon Stone
Aubrey O’Day *shudders*
Katy Actually You Ain’t All That Perry
Speidi, without doubt
Sam Ronson
The Other Hilton
Lady Gaga
1) The grand lady Solange
2) Bai Ling.
3) Mischa Barton
4) Lindsay ‘Mr President leggings’ Lohan
5) SWINTON, even though I love her
Actually maybe SWINTON deserves some kind of prize for achieving such a high level of fug that every comment refers to her as SWINTON.
PHOEBE PRICE X 65
and I guess if you need more than one person to fill all the categories….
Mischa Barton
Lisa Rhinna
Solange
Bai Ling
Aubrey O’Day
The entire cast of The Hills and Gossip Girl. All of them and any of them. I particularly dislike The Hills, especially Lauren Conrad and, dare I say it…Speidi.
Firstly: thank you to Heather and Jessica – you guys are fabulous and make every day so much more entertaining!
Then…
Madonna, for being scary and sinewy
Katie Holmes, for those jeans
Katy Perry, for just being wack
Lindsay Lohan, for adding to the general lack of pants, even here in NZ
Kanye West – for those glasses and the capital letters
Perhaps a separate class for male fuggery? I see a lot of it around and it might be nice to give the men a leg up in the fuggery.
Mischa Barton – trying to look good but just not working, that yellow D&G dress is a prime example..ill fitting!
Victoria Beckham!!!!!!! (ok, i know this probably cant be technically justified, doesn’t change the fact i think she basically looks hideous)
Lady Gaga
Pixie Geldof
Jessica Szohr – what are you talking about you fashion bloggers, she looks awful!
Men:
Pete Wentz – ick
Chase Carwford – boring
Perez Hilton
Done a little more thinking, kind of under the radar and nothing specific comes to mind, but…
Simon Cowell. Hideous hair, chest and on the top of his head.
Also, don’t remember her name, but Topanga from “Boy Meets World.” She has that style show now, or whatever. Bad bad style.
Katie Holmes
Bobby Trendy should have his own bracket
Taylor Momsen for her sulkiness alone
The Sisters Knowles
Lauren Conrad
Mischa Barton
I could go on and on . . .
Kanye
Mischa Barton
i wasn’t around for the 1st annual fugawards/ fugglies, but are or should there be there hair/shoe/accessories/siblings/men/hemlines/couples and overall (best fugglie) categories? oooo, “i die” in anticipation (trademark violation!)
the prices – phoebe and katie
bai ling – the meryl streep of fugglies
mickey rouke
gwennie
mischa
rachel z
mary kate
taylor m
Tilda Swinton
Katy Perry
Christina Aguilera
Paris Hilton
Britney Spears
Lisa Rinna
Renee Zellweger
Beyonce
Solange
Madonna
Mickey Rourke
Lily Allen
Cameron Diaz
Jessica Simpson
Salma Hayek
Janice Dickinson
All of the girls on Rock of Love!
Nicole Kidman (does wearing Botox and collagen poorly count?)
Nicole Richie
Linda Hogan
The Real Housewives of Orange County
Pamela Anderson
Amy Winehouse
Top of my list has to be Katy Perry. Lohan has not yielded on the leggings, which is truly offensive; and – dare I say it? – I DARE! – Posh has had some doozies this year too.
* Christina Aguilera: I just don’t understand what she does to herself … overtanned and overbleached.
* Gwyneth Paltrow: can you nominate someone, just for being boring/annoying? (in that case, throw in Jessica Biel)
* Katy Perry: we get it, you’re different
* Madonna: all due respect, but she’d be so much prettier if she’d just accept she’s not, and will never be again no matter how many hours she clocks in at the gym, 25 anymore. And the Jesus pictures were TMI at any age.
* Mariah “2 sizes too small” Carey
Firstly, lemme start off by saying, i absolutely LOVE gfy.com, Heather and Jessica, you two make my week with all your bitchy comments that always echo what I am thinking.
Biggest Fug offender?
LADY GODDAMN GAGA.
SHE WORE A BOW MADE OUT OF HER ON HAIR IN HER HAIR.
HOW CAN ANYONE TOP THAT?
SWINTON is sublime, we shouldn’t group her with plebs like Solange, Aubrey or Paula- batshit-crazy-Abdul, because, honestly, Tilly (as I like to call her affectionately) is in a league of her own.
Oh, wait, maybe Madonna should be up there also, along with all her vulva baring stage outfits. RANKAGE!
Charlene Wittstock, the alleged fiancee of prince Albert of Monaco. She’s got all the money and help in the world available to her and she still looks like a badly dressed sack of potatoes.
Swinton should get an honorable mention, for just being so awesome. Who else can pull off all that insane stuff, after Victoria Beckham?
Women:
1) Bai Ling
2) Taylor Momsen
3) Mischa Barton
4) Solange
Men:
1) Mickey Rourke
2) Joaquin Phoenix
3) Ashton Kutcher
4) Robert Pattinson
Lindsey Lohan
Brittany Spears
Paris Hilton
Merl Streep
The first ones to pop into my mind…
Jennifer Connelly (and all her too short, strangely 80′s bedazzled nonsense)
Aubrey O’Day (the uber slut)
Taylor Momsen (if make-up alone could get you seeded – she would be in)
Solange Knowles (wtf?)
Anne Hathaway (forever hit or miss)
Lisa Rinna
SWINTON, of course
la Lohan
I can hardly wait til Fug Madness!!!
Instead of doing North, South, East and West divisions like bball – you should do divisions based on this year’s worst fashion trends.
Men with bad facial hair (Joaquin, Brad, Mickey)
Women without pants (too many to name)
Jumpsuits
Shredded
Lindsay Lohan
Joaquin Phoenix
Madonna
Swinton
Posh
Beyonce
Cameron Diaz
Sharon Stone
Gwynneth Paltrow
Bai Ling
Nicole Kidman
Olsen twins, take your pick
Reese Witherspoon
Anne Hathaway
Paris Hilton
Kanye West
OOh- oooh – I forgot: Ashley Tisdale, remarkably fug!
Victoria Beckham
Katie Price
Lindsay Lohan
Kate Bosworth
Kirsten Dunst
MK Olsen
Pheobe Price
Winner has to be Solange “The Big Uh-Uh” Knowles hands down.
Debra Messing
Katie Holmes
Renee Zellweger
Beyonce
Paula Abdul
Jessica Biel
Lisa Rinna
Courtney Love
J Lo
Juliette Lewis
Nicolette Sheridan
Lisa Rinna, Solange, and (thought it hurts me to say it) Madonna.
Lisa Rinna….for the SAG dress alone should win it!
Lady Gaga
Pussycat Dolls
That random fug who wore the bedazzled corset and hot pink fuzzy boots!
Solange Knowles
Beyonce
Sara Jessica “camel-toe boots” Parker
Scary Kate and Ghastly Olsen
Katie Holmes
Victoria Beckham
Paris Hilton
PS – I LOVE Tilda Swinton. I thought she rocked it at the Oscars. Yes, I am serious.
Mischa Barton
Beyonce Knowles
Lily Allen
Lady GaGa
MK Olsen
Solange Knowles
Jessica Biel
Katie Holmes
Madonna
Britney Spears
Scarlett Johansson
Lindsay Lohan
Katy Perry
Jessica Simpson
Carrie Underwood
Miley Cyrus
Claire Danes
Kirsten Dunst
Mischa Barton
Paris Hilton
Aubrey O’Day
Paula Abdul
Kim Kardashian
Victoria Beckham
Kate Bosworth
Amy Winehouse
Micky Rourke
Courtney Love – I’m afraid she’s on drugs again.
Solange – I think she’s recently discovered drugs, perhaps to deal with the popularity of big sis.
Bai Ling – Is an alien, she doesn’t need drugs.
Phoebe Price – WTF, who is she and why is she anywhere? Any of us even mentioning her adds to her misplaced and unfortunate notoriety.
Katy Perry – Tries too hard to make us all think we’re ALL on drugs with her perpetually psychedelic outfits.
Madonna – Should try a few drugs again instead of all the clean livin’, her sinewy musculature is very scary to me. While I admire her discipline, lord knows the woman has a work ethic, however, I think a little bit of fat is healthy.
Seems like everyone’s saying who I’m thinking, but based on other people it’s going to be a final 8 of:
Solange (my personal pick)
Taylor Momsen (you’re 15!)
Katy Perry (we get it)
Lady GaGa (ditto above)
Mischa Barton
Aubrey O’Day
Joaquin Phoenix
SWINTON (but she’s too badarse for this!)
Although there are a few wildcards out there(one’s to watch):
Katie Holmes
Bai Ling (reigning champ)
Olsen Twins
Mickey Rourke
Evan Rachel Wood
M.I.A (nooooo! she’s badarse too!)
Lisa Rinna
The Hills/90210 casts
Gwyneth Paltrow just for looking so smug
Pheobe, Bai and Bobby need to get the lifetime achievement award. For consistent, seemingly unintentional, statistically significant achievement in ironic fug this year I nominate:
Dunst
Paltrow
Debra Messing (that rust brown leather dress? Hello…)
Ginnifer Goodwin
Streep
Kate Hudson
Jessica Simpson
Jennifer Hudson
Jolie
Aniston
I’m sure there are many more, but the exposure to so much fug this morning is giving me urges to go out in a striped shirt, plaid jacket and no pants. I have to stop.
PS love the fug girls!!!
I nominate:
Katy Perry!!! Except if she wins she won’t go away.
The Kardashians as a whole.
Sarah Jessica Parker (even though I LOVED her Oscar dress.)
Lisa Rinna
Bai Ling of course.
SWINTON
Madonna
Solange (she should win)
and, of course,
Mischa Barton.
Katy Perry
Lindsay Lohan
Taylor Momsen
Madonna
Angelina for being boring as hell
I also think Britney deserves some kind of award, not quite an unfugging, but something like that. She no longer wears ill-fitting, cheap-looking boots and weaves that she let her dogs chew on.
Solange (for the feathers)
Lisa Rinna (for various crimes of crochtacularity and obvious lack of taste)
Katy Perry (for the dress with the eyes on it, how it haunts me)
1) Mischa Barton, hands down.
2) Samantha Ronson.
2) Keira Knightly, fashion skeleton.
Katie Holmes – she tries so hard to be hip but every time I see her I feel so much pitty for her.
Madonna
Gwynneth Paltrow
Christina Agiulera, for the make up of horror!
Heidi Klum
Jenifer Anitston for being the most boring gal on earth
Did we Have Rhianna yet?
What only one nomination so far for Karl Lagerfeld?
He looks dead. Why would the dead wear gloves? He’s gotta be in there for the men.
Carmen Electra
SWINTON
Mischa Barton
Lisa Rinna
Paris Hilton
Nicky Hilton
JLo
Miley Cyrus
Katy Perry
Nicole Kidman
Mickey Rourke (dude is just not. pretty.)
Evan Rachel Wood
That’s all I can think of for now.
LOVE the column.
Honestly, I have to think about who I’m nominating, but I have one I HAVE to say right now:
Tilda Swinton, BUT I want to nominate her in a category like “Most Anticipated Fug”, because frankly, even when she looks terrible, it’s a joy to watch. So I think you could say I consider her so far towards Fug that she’s Fab.
If she’s just nominated for some basic “crap dresser” award, I will be MOST disheartened. Actually, could she have a special standout award? Like, Jerry Lewis got one… I think this year is Swinton’s.
As far as Fuggers:
Lisa Rinna
Kim Kardashian
Debra Messing (sad face)
Katie Holmes
Liza Minnelli
Paris Hilton
Lydia Hearst
Toni Braxton
Li’l Mama
Amy Winehouse
Alison Arngrim
Eva Green
Solange (for all of the “Can’t wait!” crazy of SWINTON, she has equal “Ugh, more already?” reactions for me)
Brad Pitt’s facial hair.
In the honor of the following being force-fed to us as style icons by very ill-advised people, I nominate, in order of fug:
Mischa Barton
Agyness Deyn
Kate Moss
Sienna Miller
Gwyneth Paltrow
Madonna
Keira Knightley
Katie Holmes
Chloe Sevigny
Kate Bosworth
=====================================
For their entire body of work and their very own, constant and wacky sense of style, I nominate:
Lady Gaga
Lucy Liu
Victoria Beckham
Kirsten Dunst
Katy Perry
Jennifer Connelly
Milla Jovovich
Bai Ling
=====================================
For not knowing what is flattering, age-appropriate, or just plain fug versus what is not, I nominate:
Alicia Keys
Taylor Momsen
=====================================
And finally, for not having a clue, I nominate:
Beyonce
Heidi Montag
Fuglange
SWINTON. Crazy. weird.
Sharon Stone. Ditto.
AGYNESS DEYN her clothes are so fuggly she makes Swinton look good (though still slightly weird)
Lindsay Lohan. I saw pics of her in those stupid tights…again. (honey, buy pants…please!)
The Knowles sisters. Both are terrible. I blame their mother.
Brangelina for being boring, dowdy, afraid of colour and having bad facial hair.
Joaquin Phoenix. I wonder if he smells as bad as he looks?
Madonna. She doesn’t need drugs (see above). Just some cake with thick buttercream frosting. She should also consider getting a new stylist.
Solange for the crown!
amy winehouse
kiki dunst
ann curry (she wears some seriously crazy stuff for 7 am)
any and all cast members from the new 90210
brett michaels and/or axl rose
k-fed
paula abdul
the kids from twilight
that’s all i can think of for now.
MOMSEN…she needs a wake up call!
Princess Maxima Of The Netherlands
Solange
Beyonce
Pamela Anderson
Heather Mills (I still care, even if Paul doesn’t)
and I think you may have to take Amy Winehouse out of the running, non? If the Britney rule of “fashion is the least of her problems” is going to apply.
My nominees:
Pamela Anderson
Solange
Beyonce
Paula Abdul
Lindsay Lohan
Katy Perry
Tilda Swinton
i got a big long list: Jessica Biel (for not even trying), Angelina Jolie (square body and boring), Mickey Rourke (fun but fugly), Katie Holmes (for the pegged jeans alone), Claire Danes (too much of everything at once), Dita Von Teese (creepy costumes), Fergie (stop the plaid madness), Gwen Stefani (dated), Helena Bonham Carter (who purposely puts on the fug because it’s her “thing”), Hilary Duff (streetwalker), Jessica Alba (bangs and bowties), Kate Bosworth (for thinking fug is the same as chic), Katy Perry (predictable wacky costumes), Lindsay Lohan (for always looking like yesterday’s party ended 5 minutes ago), Maggie Gyllenhaal (old peasant woman) and Lady GaGa (although she doesn’t wear clothes so i guess i’m fugging the accessories)
miley cyrus
solange
lady gaga
aubrey hoday
perez hilton
paris hilton
mickey rourke
beyonce
Solange, SWINTON, Paula Abdul, Lisa Rinna, Samantha Ronson (although the second her and Bihan break up, nobody will take her pic anyway so she’s probably irrelevant)
And for the men
1. Kanye’s mullet
2. Joaquin and his wretched facial hair
maggie gyllenhaal, Gwynneth Paltrow and wakeen phoenix
Mikey Rourke – why won’t he get his teeth fixed????
Brad Pitt – I’ve had it with the ‘stache
Simon Cowell – whoever said “moobs” made me spit my coffee out
Joaquin Phoenix – Blues bro suit & Jim Morrison’s beard do not go togehter!!!
All must kneel before the supreme fugness of SWINTONNNNNNNNNN
(Katy Perry is her handmaiden)
(Aubry O’Day is her footstool)
Katy Perry and her merry-go-round dress FTW!
And for the guys, I guess I’d nominate Bobby Trendy.
Katy Perry
Gwyneth Paltrow
Paris Hilton
Lady Gaga
Robert Pattinson
Mickey Rourke
Jeremy Piven
Joaquin Phoenix
Team Kardashian
Team “The Hills”
Team Knowles
Team Swinton (ok, she’s just one person)…
Angelina Jolie
I doubt her name will show up, but if it does, PLEASE give Jennifer Hudson a pass. I feel bad for Rihanna and some others mentioned, but no one had a worse 2008 than J Hud. I’m tearing up just thinking about it.
Have to put in my vote for Solange – girl is trying way too hard.
Tilda Swinton
joaquin Phoenix
Thanks for all the fun!
Last year there was a lot of hand-wringing over having to choose between joyful, awesome, diva-style fuggery like Sharon Stone and Posh, versus the misguided, “oh honey no” fuggery sported by the likes of Mischa Barton and Sienna Miller. I wonder if there could be separate trophies for achievement in a special category. Like, Sarah Jessica Parker for “Haute-Couture Fashion that makes you look stupid,” and Kimberly Stewart for “Most random use of accessories scooped off a sale table at The Limited.”
SWINTON (1)
Lady Pantsless
Robert Pattinson, based on hygiene standards alone and because we need more men in the competition
KATY PERRY!!! she is SOOOO annoying with her fake, “oh, look at me, i’m so one of the guys!” and then with her stupid, attention-seeking outfits that just scream of little to no originality. KATY PERRY FOR THE WIN!!!
The Olson twins (pixie sized zombies)
Tilda Swinton (everything)
Lily Allen (the white fur hat and everything thats really to small to her which she insists on wearing anyway)
Nothing new here, but I have to add my voice to the swelling chorus:
Mickey Rourke
Katy Perry (ugh!)
Lady Gag-ahhh
Zellweger
KELIS – seriously
Can’t wait for the tourney!
Helena Bonham Carter.
She absolutely deserves a second chance this year!
Aubrey O’Day’s boobies!
I second Joaquin Phoenix (the beard man, the beard!) and Mickey Rourke for the men. Also, recently, what’s with the mustache Brad Pitt??
For the women (not in order):
- Nicole Kidman for her scary face, plus she looked much better with red hair
- Angelina Jolie for the washed out look she’s been bearing since the birth of her twins (and her very plain clothes…)
- Evan Rachel Wood (essentially for the makeup, but also for her choice in dresses that make her uselessly look much older than she really is…)
- the ill-looking Olsen twins and their crazy outfits
- Rummer Willis just because she’s ugly
- that girl from Twilight because she’s so dull
And of course the usuall:
- Paris Hilton and her weird skinny knees
- Lindsay Lohan (although I have to confess I forgive her about the leggings, I find them very comfy myself…)
- the Knowles sisters
- and the breastless (and proud of it! Ever heard of a bra?) Keira Knightley
“Phoebe Price – WTF, who is she and why is she anywhere? Any of us even mentioning her adds to her misplaced and unfortunate notoriety.”
I agree – so can we PLEASE leave her out of the contest altogether? PLEASE?

Mickey Rourke- seriously, his face gives me the willies every single time.
Solange, for thinking she’s Kelis.
The bad is obvious, because obviously bad:
Lady Gaga (WEAR PANTS!)
Lil Wayne (PULL UP THE PANTS!)
Janet Jackson
Kanye West
Mariah Carey
Raven
Katy Perry
And I agree with KPOD: I think Fergie deserves an unfugging anti-fug award
I’m bored, so here’s 65 to see how close I get to the actual list:
1. Solange (Look, she’s before her sister on something! Yay!)
2. Beyonce
3. Courtney Love
4. Joaquin Phoenix–I love men with long hair and beards, but this is even too much for me.
5. Paris Hilton

56. Kylie Minogue
57. Drew Barrymore
58. Fergie
59. Pink
60. Kate Hudson
61. Gwen Stefani
62. Brangelina for that awful mustache and for being boring
63. Jessica Biel
64. Katie Holmes is super scary
65. And Swinton is too awesome to ever be fug
Mickey Rourke… because he has hurt and devastated me by throwing my love away for plastic face, bad clothes, graceless interviews, and not being the love god he could have been. Yet…yet I keep hoping lost opportunities can be recovered, common sense will prevail, fat will be shed, plastic can be removed, and a once good-looker will reclaim his place in my heart.
My nominations:
Solange
Mischa Barton
Taylor Momsen
Katie Holmes
Speidi
Katy Perry
Aubrey O’Day
Gwyneth Paltrow all the way!
Mickey Rourke, SWINTON, Aubrey O’Day, Katy Perry, M.I.A., and of course Lady Gaga. Sweet Jesus.

Bobby Trendy
Though I’m not sure if he’d be competing against the women or the men.
1)Jessica Simpson
2)Beyonce Knowles
3)Rihanna
4)Mischa Barton
5)Angelina Jolie (Angelina fans may protest but you have to be mad to dress so boring outfits to red-carpet occasions besides with her expression, by which she tries to look serious or something, looks like Cruella de Vil lately just look at her at Oscars, really,I was terrified).
The usual fugsters like Hilton, Lohan and Ling should also be nominated of course but I am really sooo tired of them that I don’t want to see their pictures anymore.
Aubrey O’Day is by far the worst offender this year.
SJP and the camel toe shoe incident…need i say more!
Courtney Love was the first to come to mind, since she’s been so prominent lately. Having said that …
Solange Knowles
Beyonce, just for that terrible Cap’n Hook look

Taylor Momsen
Aubrey O’Day
My Sweet Audrina (Patridge)

Katy Perry (though are those more costumes? eh, what the heck)
ANYBODY that made it on the Celebrity Tanorexia Watch (I’m looking at you, Al Pacino, Sept 08)
Bobby Trendy
and
sorry, H&J, but…
Victoria Beckham
Firstly i think there should be some sort of fug-off between robert pattinson and Jessica Biel since they both seem incapable of showering.
Gaga and Lisa Rinna for unnecessary high cuts on the leg (also Alice Delall)
Pixie Geldolf
Paula Abdul
Angelina, for being far too bland
Helena Bonham Carter (my friend saw her the other day and she was still working the bag lady/hobo look)
Courtney Love
Evan Rachel Wood’s make-up
Debra Messing (because i feel i keep seeing her in craziest things at the minute)
Lest we forget the lesser-famous:
AVRIL LAVIGNE
Dinah Lohan
I was only introduced to this blog shortly after Fug Madness last year, and was SO sad to have missed out on it as it was happening! Let’s just say, this blog may be my homepage for the next little while.

That GOD AWFUL Matchmaker person on Bravo
Amy Winehouse
SJP
Jennifer Connelly
MIA (although I know she didn’t have so much a body of work as much as a big body with bad clothes on it–maybe since she had the baby, it will be all right, but I doubt it)
Beyonce, natch
SWINTON
Pixie or Peaches Geldof, pick your Geldof
Agyness Deyn
Alice Dellal
Madonna (what was UP with those bandage shots, eek)
That’s all for now. Can’t wait!
Our Fearless Leaders are going to have to set an executive directive on the “meaning” of fug. How do we nominate and then vote for BOTH the unique and awesome (SWINTON) with the loathsome (insert name)?
Aubrey O’Day
Lindsay Lohan
Solange
Katy Perry
Lady Gaga
Joaquin Phoenix
Katie Holmes/Cruise
SJP
Taylor Momsen

7. Mischa Barton
Beyonce
Courtney Love
Lady Gaga
Uhm…. not one nomination for ms. comeback 2009?! BRITNEY SPEARS PEOPLE! officially 3 days and counting. see you in new orleans, fuggin’ fierceness!
katy perry and the 90210 girls… because they all irritate me immensely with their attention whore ‘style’. joaquim phoenix seems to be suffering a break; should he be britney law’d as well?
Do terribly unwise cosmetic surgery decisions count? Lisa Rinna’s clothing is only moderately appalling, but her face… I can see her birth features trying to escape from under it.
I second Agyness Deyn (Whayt a horrifying womayn)and Karl Lagerfeld. I don’t think SJP should even be in the bracket, because the Hoof Shoes are essentially a nuclear option.
Katie Holmes! She looks like a character from Rhoda.
Because they should know better:
1. SJP
2. Gwyneth Paltrow
3. Katie Holmes
4. Brangelina
They probably don’t know better, but they are a pestilence:
1. Madonna
2. Fergie
3. Taylor Momsen
Katy Perry
Mischa Barton
Solange
Taylor Momsen
Lindsay Lohan
Katie Holmes, Solange, SJP!
Jessica Simpson, for the crime of high-wasted jeans.
The Jonas Brothers, for over-styled “hipster-ness,” and especially the one who always flat-irons his hair (he’s the middle one, I think).
Oh, I forgot to mention Kanye West, for bringing back the flat top and other assorted 80′s monstrosities.
Blake Lively has been a hot mess all year!
Samantha Ronson, for dressing like my metalhead boy cousins in the 80′s. (And the horrible two-toned hair! Gah!)
M.I.A.: no pregnant woman should ever look like she did at the Grammys. Ever.
Mariah Carey, for always stuffing her body into something ridiculously short and tight. You’re trying WAAAYYYY too hard, honey.
Gwyneth Paltrow, for wearing leather mom shorts, ugly, too-short minis, and being so damn smug.
MISCHA BARTON: For having all the ingredients not to Fug, but refusing to overcome her addiction to unflattering hemlines and booties. Worn together.
Also: Solange, Katie Perry, Taylor Momsen
Bai Ling and SWINTON are glorious. Is it truly Fug if it brings me so much happiness?
Let’s see here…
Solange Knowles
Joaquin Phoenix (what IS HE doing???)
Lisa Rinna
Chloe Sevigny
Scarlett Johansson
Taylor Momsen
and Jessica Biel
Phoebe Price, because it is my dream to see PP take on SWINTON head to head in a top seed.
For the ladies…hands down Mischa Barton. She is amazingly consisitent in her bad wardrobe decisions!
For the gentlemen….Phillip Seymour Hoffman for his stupid hat at the Oscars! Show some respect Mister!
Honorable mention…Lisa Rinna!That hair and those lips were beyond insane…the look on the Red Carpet guests faces when they got a look at her was priceless!
Keep doing what you’re doing ladies! You make my day!
Taylor Momsen
Solange
Lady Gaga
Katy Perry
Katie Holmes
Renee Zellweger
Rob Pattinson
Shenae Grimes, please!
Mischa Barton too
Men:

Women:
Phoebe Price
Shauna Sands
Katie Price
Aubrey o Day
Gwynnie P.
Those hills and 90210 girls, whoever they are. With the nose jobs and the hair and the scary voices and the skeleton bodies and the fake boobs.
I don’t care if these people are spelled wrong, I don’t want to waste any neurons looking them up, I’m upset that I have brain space allocated to them already, know what I mean?
Is Winehouse game this year?
Any of the new 90210 twigs
Lily Allen
Kristen Stewart and RPatz

Joaquin P
Gwyneth Paltrow
Any DWTS contestants (or maybe as a whole cast)
Blake Lively

Debra Messing – When it’s wrong, it’s very wrong!
Blake Lively – Kills me b/c I LOVE GG, but she loks a mess most of the time.
TAYLOR MOMSEN!!! Please, that girl and that hair is KILLING me! She was so cute when she started on Gossip Girl… and now…ack!
Lady Gaga… no pants? REALLY? On the Tonight Show, Jay Leno looked like he was trying to not run away in horror when she perfomed in underwear and pantyhose… no PANTS.
Kanye West… although the nomination alone is enough cause to make his ego that much bigger.
SWINTON SWINTON SWINTON SWINTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Solange
Lisa Rinna
Katy Perry
I feel Aubrey O’Day is a strong contender for this year’s “fug in clothing, fug in nature” crown.
So are Ms. Rinna and her lips.
Gwyneth…oh, Gwyneth.
When was SJP’s flowerpot hat? Surely that gets some sort of Accessory Honorable Mention, at a minimum.
Katy Perry is so annoying, sartorially and musically, that I’m not sure I can be objective about anything she wears. So she might be an excellent choice.
I adore SWINTON. She is brilliant. And I can’t say (or think) SWINTON without hearing it in the voice of the aliens on “The Simpsons.” Remember when one of them took on the form of Bill Clinton? SWINTON rhymes with his pronunciation of “CLIN-TON.” In my head.
Angelina Jolie
Nicole Kidman
Women this beautiful should not look drab, dull, or plain.
Sam Ronson. Seriously, she needs a new look more than Lindsay needs to lose the leggings.
SWINTON,of course.
Solange,so many feathers, so little awareness.
Madonna. Those see through black mumsy dresses and that piece of gristle body. Ugh, no wonder only gay men like her.
Phoebe Price. Who is she anyway?
Lisa Rinna. Too many animal prints, too much plastic surgery and waaaaay too much exposure of the lady bits.
Angelina Jolie. Not only would I not want to watch tv with her but her clothes are so boring. Losse the tattoos also.
i know you said no politicos, but how about a celebrity’s spouse?
i nominate nicole austin, ice t’s wife.
those ginormo bewbs! get them out of my face!
Solange
Angelina – she always looks so meh
Taylor Momsen
Amanda Bynes
DEFINITELY Miley
That’s all I can think of, aside from reiterating everything above. I trust you gals.
Aubrey O’Day
Paris Hilton
ScarJo
SJP
Katie Holmes
Also, can I UNnominate (that’s probably not a word, but whatever) Britney Spears? i.e. say I think she looks fabulous this year and should NOT be on the list?
I never thought I’d ever say this, but:
SOFIA LOREN for that hideous mess she wore at the Oscars and the “Tippi Hedren in the birds, following a particularly egregious avian attack” hair she wore with it. Oh yes and the arms akimbo. Horrid. HORRID!
Jessica Biel for HER Oscar look, which looked like she had a goiter growing out of her chest AND the hair.
Oh, please – Sarah Jessica Parker, Solange, and Mischa Barton!
How about Bret Michaels? He is wearing legitimately contured eyeshadow, liner, and mascara in this season’s Rock of Love. And the bandana… any man who wears headgear ALL THE TIME just has to be nominated. Ahem, Kenny “I’m so comfortable with being totally cue-ball up top and that’s why I haven’t taken off this Stetson since 1997″ Chesney.
Jessica Simpson – so much BBQ, so little time.
Lady Gaga – as we like to apply also to the concept of wearing leggings and tank tops, ‘girl, you ain’t wearing no pants’.
Tay Mo – being 15 (16?) is no excuse; she also needs to attend events equipped with her own little corner. y’know, for the perpetual sulking.
Jessica Biel – aka, Blandy McBlanderson.
Solange – maybe Beyonce pays her to wear such horrendous ensembles that make her sister’s outfits acceptable by comparison.
Angelina Jolie & Jennifer Aniston for being sooo boring.
Nicki Hilton

Renee Zellweger

My roommate and I argued a lot last year about whether we should be voting based on pure fuggery (as in the worst outfits win, period) or if we should vote for the outfits that made us sick over the ones that warmed our hearts with their fuggery. I guess maybe this is just one of the variables that goes into making one set of outfits the “worst.” I’m torn!
First of all:
Pat Field
Rachel Zoe
Christian Siriano
Why must designers and stylists dress so badly? That’s like a financial adviser filing for Chapter 11!
Then:
Janice Dickinson
Heidi Klum
Tyra Banks
Ladies, aren’t we supposed to be models?
Finally:
Tilda Swinton
Chloe Sevigny
Jessica Biel
Philip Seymour Hoffman
Oprah Winfrey
Lil Mama
*Sigh* and I’m sure there are so many more…
Some throwdowns I’d like to see:
Lindsay Lohan vs Lady Gaga
Lisa Rinna vs Phoebe Price
Katie Perry vs Agyness Deyn
Taylor Momsen vs Mischa Barton
Beyonce vs Madonna
Bai Ling vs Solange Knowles
SWINTON vs Bobby Trendy
Courtney Love vs Mickey Rourke

Kate Bosworth vs Sarah Jessica Parker
Karl Lagerfeld vs Joaquin Phoenix
Paris Hilton vs Kim Kardashian
Jessica Biel vs Gwyneth Paltrow
Sienna Miller vs Jessica Alba
Pete Wentz vs Kid Rock

Robert Pattinson vs Brad Pitt
The Under 25 crowd will be fierce competitors this year:
Ripped tights my coat IS pants 90201 girl
TAYLOR MOMSEN
Solange
Li.Lo.Ronsen (as one leggings-fedora wearing person)
Baby Lohan– if she’s old enough to pimp herself out like that, she’s old enough to get in the brackets
Over 25:
Eva Longoria-Parker
Swinton
Sienna Miller, the fedora, the men
Jessica Biel
Madge
Katie Holmes
Drew Barrymore (mostly for headsuits)
Men:
John Mayer
Joaquin Phoenix
Brad Pitt, for the mustache… just so disgusting and the lack of sleep

Carrie Underwood would be a very controversial choice. I say the true fug madness winners are the ones that artfully tricked us into ALMOST liking their outfits. Contestants like Solange, who almost SEEM to be trying to be fug…or win any possible award, good or bad, to show up their sisters…aren’t as great.
OK:
LiLo
Bai Ling
Solange
KATY PERRY for being so $@&!ing annoying
Aubrey O’Day
Taylor Momsen
Lady Gaga
Brad Pitt for the mustache
Mickey Rourke
Kanye West, though I secretly treasure him
In my mind, Beyonce, SWINTON, and Posh are exempt for just being fabulous in their fuggery. I mean, you just can’t fug a convertible gold robot hand.
> LiLo
> Evan Rachel Wood
> Beyonce
> Solange
> SWINTON (God knows I love her and her crazy!)
> Katy Perry
> Lady GaGa
> MIA (I object strenuously to her misappropriation of punctuation.)
> Speidi (Is there a “combo” category?)
> Angelina Jolie (Not Brangelina, because Brad is just too fab.)
> Carrie Underwood
> Mickey Rourke
> Joaquin Phoenix
> K-Fed
> Nicole Kidman (So pretty. So washed-out by what she wears!)
> Taylor Momsen (Cheer up already!)
I am so excited to print out my bracket and follow along! I love Fug Madness more than March Madness, and I am a sports geek!
Gwyneth, because of goop and her helpful suggestions of what to wear if you’re stick thin, a multi-millionaire, and can afford the staff to support your humour-free healthy lifestyle.
Madonna. See above, with added ‘grimly holding onto youth’
Sienna Miller. She is NOT an icon, media people.
Katy Perry. Because she’s not so wacky crazy as she’d like to think she is.
Nicole Kidman. Used to be so much better and continually insists on highlighting the wrong assets.
Jordan. Because she gives excellent fug and is game for a laugh
Team Holmes-Beckham. Do they form a symbiotic fug?
Paris Hilton. Needs to be slapped down for general space-wasting and visual pollution.
Alice Dellal. I feel she hasn’t been given quite the fug time her ensembles deserve.
Any pictures of Richard O’Brien at parties recently that can be found will reap rich rewards.
Also, scrolling down the side bar for reminder of fug offenders, there are a huge number of Kates and Kellies there. Is it in the name?
Maybe we could have special categories for specific on-trend fug crimes of the last year, like high-waisted pants and one shoulder dresses. Obviously leggings are out because Lohan has this in the bag.
I’m surprised no one has nominated Blake Lively – sure, she’s supposed to be starlet pretty, but girl cannot dress to save her life! Or her figure!
Too bad TV show inflicted wardrobe isn’t eligible, because sometimes they things they put her in on GG are as bad as the things she chooses for herself.
The twiglets on the new 90210.
Kristen Stewart – is the not showering catching on the Twilight set?
The Kardashians – kollectively
Heidi from the Hills
For the men: the Jonas brothers
Can Swinton receive a lifetime achievement award for best ownership of fug? She wears almost nothing that would be acceptable on another human being but somehow on her it works: it’s the Swinton effect.
Taylor Momsen(‘s hair), Solange Knowles and SWINTON have earned spots on the list, in my humble opinion.
Woot! It’s Fug Madness again!
Mischa Barton
Stop trying to channel the sixties sweety, you ain’t NO Marianne Faithfull.
Britney Spears
Love her, but girl can’t wear clothes; has no style.
Kanye West
Micheal Jackson called; he wants his jacket back.
Jessica Simpson
Next move: highwaisted Daisy Dukes.
Perez Hilton
Same fashiontrainwreck as…
Paris Hilton
Barbie is her rolemodel.
Jennifer Garner
Taupe as Lainey Gossip calls hers (and NO; being a mummy is no excuse for that snoozefest.)
Aubrey O’Day
Maybe being naked all the time wouldn’t be such a bad idea.
Fergie
Her best accessory is her husband.
Aubrie O’Day-she’s got some serious pull this year especially with her ‘dyed-to-match’ dog, and terrible implants
Taylor Momsen-the girl needs a new haircut and age appropriate clothing.
Katy Perry-her outfits are brutal, which is made worse by the the fact that she is unbearably irritating
Annalynne ‘drunkface’ Mccord-an on, and off-screen disaster
Lilly Allen-her fashion, as well as her general demeanor offends me
Jessica Biel-it’s unfortunate for her that her oscar hair mishap fell so close to fug madness, but it was so brutal that she NEEDS to be included
Lady Gaga-make it stop
Beyonce-i am sasha fug
Ladies:
Lady Gaga
Samantha Ronson
Britney Spears
Katy Perry
Sienna Miller
Gents:
Mickey Rourke(!)
Kanye West
Joaquin Phoenix
John Mayer
Swinton. ‘Nuff said.
Lady GaGa, love her, but Lord let her discover Haute Couture.
Pussycat Dolls. Just so wrong in so many ways.
Taylor Momsen, for taking fug teenager clothes to a whole new level.
Mischa Barton. Just shoot her.
Solange and Beyonce. Just ew.
May I not forget Aubrey O’Day. Does anyone else remember that slut-shirt-dress thing that had a drawing of her ‘boobs’ coming out of a dress?
Jessica Biel – how can someone who is so blessed with figure & face look so bad so often!!
p.s – i forgot to mention THAT red dress, she wore it TWICE in public for gods sake.
katie holmes
la lohan
katy perry
heidi montag
chuck bass
Karl Lagerfeld (stop being dead)
Brad Pitt (shave the fugstache and get some sleep)
Joaquin Phoenix (hobo gone really bad)
Bobby Trendy (what can I say ?)
Lisa Rinna and her crotchtacular dress are def my number one for the ladies
and for SURE Joachim Pheonix’s unabomber chic for the men
LEAVE THE SWINTON ALONE!!! LEAVE IT ALOOONE!!!
Sorry… back on topic,
Pete Wentz
Lisa Rinna
Katy Perry
Paris Hilton
Ta Momsen From The Depressed Lagoon
PussycatDolls
Aubrey O’Day
Mickey Rourke for a special ” Dear Lord Whatever Happened To Your Face? Oh, Cocain… ( Awkward Silence ) Award
Bai Ling/Phoebe Price for a Lifetime Achievement/Cage Match O’Fug Fight Award belt.
can we please get Robert Pattinson on the list this year??? and Joaquin Phoenix for sure!!!
SWINTON will RULE! Everytime I see her now I hear “SWINTON” really loud in my head.
PARIS HILTON
PARIS HILTON
PARIS HILTON
PARIS HILTON
PARIS HILTON!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, and Leggings Lohan and her lady…
Anyone who cannot manage their breasts.
I do not want to see nips in any way (neither through the material — by color or protrusion — nor nakedly rising above the strapless). I do not want to see the bra. I do not want to see them painfully exploding out the top a la SJP and ScarJo. I do not want to see them dripping down their chest unsupported. And I do not want to see them at asymmetrical heights.
It’s just not that hard, ladies.
Seriously, though – that is the sanest/unfuggiest thing Bai Ling’s every worn. I would gladly welcome a Celebrity Death Match between her and Pheobe Price.
Dudes, it has to be Katy Perry this year, right? Who else has been A. More annoying, B. Worst dressed and C. More shoutingly talentless than Katy P. in ’08? That’s a fug FANTASY right thurr!
Anyway, my list so far is:
Katy Perry (See above)
Taylor Momsen (SMILE, asshole!)
Lindsay Lohan (Because, like the Fug Girls, I am mad at her for her leggings insanity.)
Beyonce (I’ll give Solange a pass because she’s not really allowed out much, but B. should really know better.)
Lisa Rinna (Where old chemical peels go to die.)
Angelina Jolie (because it’s hard to be the most beautiful woman in the world and still look intolerably boring at 99% of the events you attend.)
I don’t have a men’s list because I don’t usually find man-fugs as much fun. Besides, Mickey Rourke will win it anyway.
katy perry, swinton, lohan, paris, and oh my gosh, misha barton.
SWINTON
Katy Perry
Mickey Rourke
Phillip Seymour Hoffman (there was NO excuse for his Oscar look)
Paris Hilton
Solange
Bai Ling
LiLo
Britney Spears
every male celebrity who sported a pornstar moustache this past year
Katy Perry- God that girl needs to stop going outside her home. The Fug Girls may have to simply just make a bracket for her.
Perez Hilton- For shamelessly whoring out the clothes he “designed” for Hot Topic.
Beyoncé- For never failing to disappoint on the red carpet. Gosh I lover her for that.
Paris HIlton- she just has to be in it!
Lady Gaga- Trying too hard, are we???
Katy Perry
Lady Gaga
Agynesse Deyn
Keira Knightly
Scarlett Johanssen
Angelina Jolie (she is so boring)
Jessica Simpson
Jay Manuel
Kevin Smith. Yes, that Kevin Smith, the director of of such cinematic classics as Mallrats and Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back.
Don’t believe me? Google Images “Kevin Smith prom” and click on the 4th pic in the top row and be prepared to be swept away by the Fuginess. And just so you know, Smith wears “shorts” like that all the Fugging time.
He either thinks it’s Way Cool or that it somehow takes away from his uber plumperness.
Either way, he comes across looking like an idiot.
Oh goodness, this is so exciting. I am currently deployed to Iraq and this site keeps me so entertained…thank you, Fug Girls!
I hereby nominate:
Katy Perry
Katie Holmes
Lily Allen
Lady Gaga
Paris Hilton
Mischa Barton
Courtney Love
M.I.A.
Solange
Britney Spears
LiLo
Amy Winehouse
SWINTON
Speidi
Taylor Momsen
Aubrey O’Day
Just remembering some of their outfits, I shudder…the wise words of the Fug Girls the only balm for the suffering.
We must not forget the Fugliest of all Fuglies, even if she has been keeping kind of a low profile this year:
CHLOE SEVIGNY.
Angelina Jolie, simply because no one married to such a gorgeous man should look so…boring.
Katy Perry, because of the phallic imagery at the Grammys. WTF?
SOLANGE.
Solange
Mischa Barton
Lindsay Lohan
Bai Ling (as if we could possibly forget her)
Phoebe Price
Katy Perry
Britney Spears
Lisa Rinna
Taylor Momsen
Aubrey O’Day
The entire cast of the new ’90210′
The entire cast of ‘The Hills’
Mickey Rourke
Kanye West
Phillip Seymour Hoffman (if only for the beanie at the Oscars)
. . . and that’s all I’ve got for right now. I’ll get back to you if I remember being seriously offended by anyone else’s appearance!
Philip Seymour Hoffman, a knit cap for gods sake? Get a hair cut.
And Juliette Lewis is my hero, I would dress like that if I too had my brains scrambled by some combination of Andrew W.K. and a circ de sole preformer.
In no particular order:
Solange
Aubrey O’Day
SWINTON!
“Lady” Gaga
Pussycat Dolls (each and every one of them)
Mischa Barton
I REALLY REALLY wanted to add Britnasty Spears, but I will give it a break according to Heather and Jennifer’s fug rules. I just checked the archives, and a lot of the pics I were thinking of were taken in ’07. For instance those fugtacular brown boots she did not take off her fungus infected feet for two months.
But add in her paparazzi-used-to-be-boyfriend, Anihib whatever, just for looking dirty.
Someone above mentioned the Knowles mother, include her in the mix, name (?) for the House of Diarrhea clothing line, she must deep down despise them, really. She must create the Solange and Beyonce line during really hacked off moments.
SWINTON vs COURTNEY with Sharon Stone officiating.
This is sooo fuglicious.
-Angelina Jolie– I say this as a FAN, but those shapeless sack-dresses just KILL me.
-Pants-a-phobic Lindsay Lohan
-Solange of the feathers, etc.
Women:
1) Lady GaGa
Lindsey Lohan
2) Katy Perry
3) Solange
4) Tilda Swinton (although I kinda love her)
5) Jessica Biel
6) Taylor Momsen
7) Courtney Love
9) Kirsten Dunst
10) Aubrey O’Day
Men:
1) Joaquin Phoenix
I nominate…
- SJP
- Sharon Stone
- Phoebe Price
- Kate Hudson
- Katy Perry
and a male, to keep things (sort of) balanced…
- Emile Hirsch
Lets get right to the source and nominate Rachael Zoe. She never looks good
Hillary Clinton! Seriously, you could make a crayola box out of her colored pantsuits.
Also, can we nominate the COSTUMERS of shows like Gosssip Girl and the new 90210?
1) E’s! Guiliana De Whatever who always covers the red carpet events (she was at the Oscars) for her overall unappealing demeanour and vast stupidity. That, and her skin has the consistency of an orange peel.
2) Katie Price, Shauna Sand and Pamela Anderson, for the horror their children must feel when they are being picked up from school by their plastic, orange, hooker-heel sporting, pointy-nippled mothers. Enough said.
3) On a similar note, Victoria Beckham, for appearing so completely unhuggable. What child would want to snuggle up to that human incarnation of a Tim Burton character for their bedtime story?
4) Katie Holmes, for having so utterly transformed from the bright-eyed Joey Potter of my childhood into the slumpy, sad looking-person she has become.
5) Amber Rose, Kanye West’s new girlfriend. She is taking the leggings as pants thing to a whole other level. A Miley-Cyrusesque, shiny, high-waisted affair. You girls should really start covering her and her bald head.
6) Lady Gaga, for being so unappealing. It’s enough to make a person asexual. Put on some goddamn pants.
Mikey Rourke and Lady Gaga
SWINTON and Mickey Rourke. And if possible, some sort of romantic theme of the two of them together. Cause that would be NATCH.
SWINTON
I’M SO SORRY JESSICA, I called you Jennifer during my fug madness moment. PLEASE allow me to participate and vote. PLEASE!!!
Fug Forever!!
Agyness Deyn.
Katie I Fugged a Girl Perry.

Tori Spelling
Elisabeth Hasselbeck
Sarah Palin
Nancy Grace
thank you for considering them!
Katie Holmes
Paris Hilton
Katy Perry
Solange Knowles
MS. Anne Hathaway.
Miley Cyrus
JLH
Gossip Girl-Little J…the hair! racoon make-up!
Katty Perry
Angelina Jolie…for most boring wardrobe.
Victoria Beckham…for thinking( or trying to think) she’s all that.
Katie Holmes…for wearing Toms pants, but apparently not wearing THE PANTS.
LIndsey Lohan because she wears leggings ad nauseaum.
Kate Moss and Amy Winehouse for still being alive.
Samantha the DJ and Lohan… they’ve been an inseparably fugly unit all year!
Mickey Rourke
Cameron Diaz
Angelique from rock of love… just google her
Heather from rock of love
Daisy from rock of love
Heck, everyone that’s ever been on rock of love
My nominees are: Solange Knowles, Katy Perry, Lindsay Lohan, Helena Bonham-Carter, and Aubrey O’Day.
I will not, however, nominate Swinton. No matter what she chooses to drape herself with, she always looks radiant. The woman defines and champions subversive fashion. She makes interesting choices, but not outright ugly ones.
Two words: Liza Minelli She forgot to wear pants to the Tony’s. and she’s crazy/awesome.
Lady Gaga for her ceramic bikini.
Tilda Swinton for her perma-dowdy.
Agyness Deyn, Alice Dellal, Peaches & Pixie Geldof, and Jaime Winstone, cos I’m sick to f**k of seeing them falling out of a bar in ripped tights/mismatched DM boots/skanky fur coats every time I open a paper in London!
I think Bjork should be eligible! I mean, having one of the brackets named after her is an honor, but it would be like renaming Center Court at Wimbledon after Roger Federer while he’s still an active player…
I want a Bjork/Bai Ling face off.
Please make it happen!

Aubrey O’Day (it’s too obvious.)
Miley Cyrus (overexposed little tween, learn something from classy Dakota and Emma Watson).
Lisa Rinna (the face and the animal prints. Oy.)

Jennifer Aniston (ditch the little black dresses, please!)
Tina Fey (see Jennifer Aniston)
Heidi Montag (she is just garbage).
Ice T’s girlfriend with the huge melons.

Taylor Momsen-[just the hair alone is enough to qualify her]
Katy Perry

Solange Knowles

Katie Holmes
Mischa, Katy Perry and Solange. No question.
I DON’T WANT TO NOMINATE HIM!
Just want to bring it up, I was SO disappointed from the Oscars.
My long time love, sigh, STING.
Lose the hair fellas, Brad and Joaquin too!
I’ll overnight a shaver if you want me too!
It’s so fugging fugly.
Courtney Love, Mischa Barton, Solange Knowles, Beyonce Knowles, Mickey Rourke, Lada Gaga, and most notably of late: Kanye West, because several times I’ve almost mistaken thumbnails of him with Karl Lagerfeld (with the leather gloves, the suite, white dress shirt and black tie, and the sunglasses). Then there is the unkempt facial hair, the semi afro mohawk, the sweater vests…and oh so much more 80′s inspired fugliness…as well as his fugly attitude, especially of late.
Jennifer Fugconnely
Paris Hilton
Bay Ling
Solange and Beyonce
Katie Holmes
I think Solange has a good chance to win this year–her sister, too. Katie Holmes and Katy Perry are big contenders as well.
Bobby Trendy and Perez Hilton should definitely be in the competition. Bobby might even take it.
Tilda Swinton is a goddess and doesn’t belong in this competition. She’s like a walking piece of art–and, besides, she’s fiercely smart and talented and knows what she’s doing. I also think Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro is not fug, but funky. Her clothes are interesting and fun.
Renee Zellweger. I don’t have a specific outfit in mind but every time I see her or think about her fugliness it makes me hate the world a little bit more.
SWINTON!
Agyness Deyn!
Mischa Barton!
Ashanti!
Drunkface McCord
Parker Posey
Amy Adams (You need a low seed, right? Right!)
Taylor Momsen
Solange Knowles
Amanda Bynes
And, finally, who seems to be the Fug-or-Fab Queen – Anne Hathaway
i would like to submit to the peanut gallery the notion that we exclude fashion’s eccentrics from the lineup (i.e. lady gaga and rihanna that dress theatrically to push the envelope) and focus more on such tacky offenders as:
phoebs price
solange (i can’t tell whether her fashion choices fall under theatrical eccentric behavior or just plan tack)
peaches geldof
JOAQUIN PHOENIX (what the HELL.)
lisa rinna (fantastic body but christ, does she ever know when to NOT slut it up?)
heidi montag (spencer’s garb tends to be more boring than offensive)
kirsten dunst
amy winehouse
These are painful as I love all these people.
Mo’Nique- I can not believe she is has not been nominated more. Her love of the patterned stretchy silk is like a Lifetime movie: so bad you have to watch until the her credits roll.
Kathy Griffin- I adore her, but Robert Verdi needs some reminders about her height and coloring.
Amanda Bynes- yes, if I had those legs I’d walk around in short skirts too. But I would be certain they were actual skirts- not slightly long tops.
For the men:
Robert Verdi- Bless his shiney heart and head.
and i also agree that swinton should not be in any way a part of the brackets. rather, she should be like a patron saint, one whose otherworldy wisdom and guidance and whimsy we look to in difficult moments. i would seriously die for a photo of her walking around the house, watching TV, whatever, in that dress that some young african-american woman was wearing on here recently, the short, off-white one with the shoulders/arms like water wings, about which you girls mentioned that it was probably what swinton wears around the house, etc. can we please make that happen? can we contact her somehow and tell her how much, as a group, we adore her and everything she does/wears?
LISA RINNA. she is just unforgivable.
My nominees are:
Solange Knowles
Beyonce Knowles
Jessica Simpson
Taylor Momsen
Carrie Underwood
Lindsay Lohan
Lisa Rinna
Naomi Watts
Tilda Swinton
Mischa Barton
the Olsen twins
I am so looking forward to Fug Madness!
Comments!! I don’t want to repeat names, but wanted to add a few of the British worst.
Jodie Marsh- UGH.
Amy Winehouse
Lilly Allen
Heather Mills
Nancy Dell’olio
Peaches Geldof
Jordan
lady gaga, sans sunglasses.
Oh, OK – just to make quota:
Katie Holmes vs Anne Hathaway
Amy Adams vs Alicia Keys
Charlize Theron vs Selma Blair
Pamela Anderson vs Amy Winehouse
Nicky Hilton vs Haylie Duff
I nominate:
Solange Knowles – Just Madness every day!
Kirsten Dunst
Bobby Trendy
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olson – they should go head to head!
SWINTON needs to have her own division.
Katy Perry
LiLo (for the tights alone)
Evan Rachel Wood (lest we forget the goth make-up)
Drunkface McCord
Ok! So obviously I’m too lazy to scroll through previous comments (my Diet Coke has been drained to melty ice and a weak lemon wedge at this point). I apologize, because everyone I list will probably already be up there!
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury….
Solange Knowles.
SWINTON.
Kirsten Dunst
Mischa Barton
Whitney Port/her ankles
Lady GaGa
Jordan
Jessica Simpson
Lisa Rinna
Diane Kruger? (low seed)
Amy Adams? (low seed)

BAI LING (le duh)
Shenaenae Grizzimes
The unreasonably famous Hiltons
Mickey Rourke/’s face
Kanye West’s Hair
Joaquin Phoenix
also, props to the commenter on ERW’s “facial dressings”. terrifying AND funny.
LET FUG MADNESS BEGIN!
I feel like people like Bai Ling and Solange are almost cheating because they’re SO out there. The real (and saddest) fuggers IMHO are…
Mischa Barton: I used to think she was so hot, then I took a break from celebrity gossip (saddest time of my life) and came back to find her in her current state, and it was so sad it made me angry
Taylor Momsen: needs to eat, among other issues
Blake Lively: she’s so hot, there is no excuse for her being on this list, but as it is…
Carrie Underwood: also needs to eat, and if she’s going to insist on so many costume changes she should at least get SOMETHING right
Beyonce: might as well just wear the one-shoulder leotard and metal glove all the time
Jessica Biel: at the rate she’s going even I might get a chance at JT
Drunkface McCord…and the whole 90210 cast actually
SJP: I was going to disagree with this nomination, despite the recent boob-bustout, because of a fondness for crazy Carrie fashion, but then someone reminded me of the cameltoe boots, so in she goes

I’ll be the first to admit Bai Ling is a freakin’ train wreck, but she has kind of always been that way. There was no real “going downhill” moment for her. She’s been bottom of the barrel since it started. However, Little J was cuter as Cindy Lou Who than she is now. Heroine chic worked in the early nineties, but now Taylor is on a slippery slope to becoming a full fledged Courtney Love look a like.
Also? Amanda Bynes is to hairstyles what Jen Aniston is to black dresses. She needs a new ‘do and a longer skirt. I don’t need to see her ugly betty. Sank-yew-very-much!
Additionally, I would like to see an angry eyes staring contest between Ginnifer Goodwin and Taylor Momsen.
Roisín Murphy, people!!!
Definitely the Pussycat Girls. They commit sartorial atrocities daily.
*Lisa Renna
*Joaquin Phoenix, who, from here on out should be known only as “Joaquin” and go around with our next fabulous nominee
*Swinton
*Lady Gaga- meh- get some pants…. and other clothes, for all our sakes!
*Posh Spice. I hate her attitude or her face or whatever it is, her size 0 body and her stupid clothes and think she and her taste are completely overrated
*Angelina Jolie. Dont care about the kids or Brad and what a ‘saint’ she is. Who cares. Her clothes are BO-RING and she shouldnt use being ‘beautiful’(which I dont think she is) as an excuse to wear sacks.
*Bai Ling who I *adore*
I think Bjork should win the Bjork category
and, yes, I agree
*Paris Hilton. like she needs any one else to write anymore about her, tho.
I also agree on *Giuliana de whatever from E.Is being vaccuous and annoying a qualification for working there?
Solange
Perez Hilton
Mickey Rourke (even though his fug is fantastic, i love it. so there)
Lady gaga
the olsens
joaquin phoenix
and maybe SJP for that ridiculous fairy princess dress she wore to the oscars, and her horrific hair. nobody who’s pushing 50 should wear a dress like that
i’d leave out bai ling and pheobe price. they’ve had their moment, let the others shine!
how could i have forgotten katy perry! she is the number one worst dressed this year.
Solange, Katy Perry, Phil Hoffman, Kanye, Pussycat Dolls.
SWINTON is an icon. She’s got her horrendous outfits, but she’s got serious acting chops; who am I to judge?
swinton. period. though i concede solange is a lock for the final four.
I have only one nominee, because one name consistently springs to mind when I look up from my sandwich and think “fugly”. She could be so much, but settles for so little:
Mischa Barton
– Lady GaGa
– Posh Spice/V-Becks
– SWINTON
– Mischa Barton
– Madonna
– Lisa Rinna
– Scarlett Johansson
– SJP (the camel-toe boots + her Oscars dress alone qualify her for nomination)
– Jordan/Katie Price
– Beyonce/Sasha Fierce
AND
– TWO votes for that damn KATY PERRY and her ridiculous onstage (and sometimes off-stage) ensembles. That girl is whack!
Um, yeah, Mischa Barton is the fugliest. Let’s add Tilda Swanton and Chloe Sevigny to the list, since they always provide amusement on the blog…
Aww man. I think it’s a good call with DQ’ing Rihanna from the running (I do agree, I think that calling her outfits fugly when she just got slapped around by Chris is in poor taste), but…damn, girlfriend put in quite the body of work this year. She would have been a rightful contender.
Other than that: Solange deserves to win this, if only because she’s found so many ways to dress like a bird. Also, Sarah Brightman. I think she only got one outfit in under the fug period, but what an outfit it was.
I’m sure you guys could find some room for La Terremoto de Alcorcon, too. Girlfriend has fine legs for a sixty-something, BUT…you could sneak her in as a sixteenth-seed in the Charo bracket, right?
But I’m definitely rooting for Solange. Hell, give me a Sisters Knowles showdown. SWINTON ain’t got nothin’ on them. SWINTON is just fabulous and sometimes fabulously insane. The Knowles sisters are insane and sometimes insanely divalicious.
OH YEAH AND FUGÖE FUGIGNY. She didn’t do too much this year, but.
BUT.
I just went back and realized that the Chloe collection for Opening Ceremony was posted on March 5, 2008. It’s like…she was doing this to ensure she got in for this year.
http://gofugyourself.celebuzz.com/go_fug_yourself/2008/03/opening-fugemony.html
Rapture.
I agree with most of the commenters above that Mischa Barton and
Further up, Susan mentioned Naomi Watts, and I must sadly concur and add her to my list. I love her as well, but holy crackers that woman RARELY gets it right. I was trying to come up with her name yesterday, and my hint to my brain was, “OK, who is that chick who is stunningly beautiful but only rarely dresses well? You know, the one who also has talent. And is actually somewhat interesting. But gets the fashion thing astonishingly wrong so very often. Who is that”
Yep. It’s Watts.

I agree with most of the commenters above that Mischa Barton, Lisa Rinna, Katy Perry, and Solange Knowles have worked hard in the past year to make it to the final four.
I think that Perez Hilton would be an excellent addition, along with Joaquin Phoenix, to a men’s category. Kanye sported a pretty fug bow tie and denim jacket combo recently as well:
http://cdn.thesuperficial.com//bfm_gallery/2009/02/0227%20Kanye%20West%20NYFW/post_image/post_image-0227_kanye_west_nyfw_00.jpg
Can I suggest Kate Bosworth? She can be so fab, but she frequently gets it really wrong. Perhaps as a low seed? And Claire Danes should make an appearance too.
Fug Madness is so much fun… I’m so glad it’s back!
janet jackson
actually, most of the jacksons
Mischa Barton
Mickey Rourke
Let the fugging begin!!!
Can we fug Beyonce’s mom? I’m not saying her and what she wears, but for the horrible things she does to her daughter and what she tries to sell us (I’ve been visually assaulted one too many times by ads for the “fashion house” on bus stops and in magazines). I mean, for the most part, it’s not always that Beyonce looks bad, it’s usually just when she’s wearing the House of Der… whatever, I can’t be bothered to even look the name up. The ming vase dress at the Oscar was the last straw, stage an intervention before Jay-Z leaves her due to bad fashion taste.
add solange to that too, although I think she tries to hard not to be Beyonce that she stays far away from House of D and screws that up too.
The problem with Lady Gaga I think is that it’s her schtick, like the fug is the point to her madness and giving her this honor will just be wasted.
Other fugs: Jessica Simps (high wasted pant, leopard belts… she’s not fat, it’s the outfit! As well as that black dress/nightgown she wore out with Tony Romo a few weeks back that made her boobs look vein-y). Paris Hilton, I also agree with Perez Hilton.

Man Fugs:
Bret Michaels.
Criss Angel.
Pete Wentz.
Lil’ Wayne. I am SO UPSET about the trend he started where the young mens’ pants hang COMPLETELY OFF THEIR BUMS. How do they stay on?! (True story: I saw a teenage boy doing this while driving the other day and poked my husband repeatedly, saying “look at that!! See? I told you!! It’s Lil Wayne pants! LOOK!!!” To which he replied: “I’m not going to look at a teenage boy’s bum!” Almost caused a car accident.)
Re Moxie:
That lady is in congress? I’d agree if she were a celebrity, but Rosa can rock out with her crazy clothes on capitol hill any day. Out with St. Johns and in with patchwork!
There were so many comments, I scrolled past a bunch at the end, so forgive me if I’m repeating. Just wanted to say I agree with most of these lists, but am on the side of the people who think SWINTON is outside any category in all her wonderful/horrible SWINTON-ness and should either be left alone or given her own special… something. For being SWINTON.
Also, I have to say that scary arms – be they Madonna muscular or Keira Knightly concentration campish – make any outfit fugly. I may be Hollywood obese (to steal from Tina Fey) in my size 6′s and 8′s, but I promise you it is not jealousy that makes me cringe in horror when I see twigs emerging where proper arms should be.
how could we forget the dark horse of the tourney: Juliet Lewis!
All of the Pussycat Dolls, plus extra points for consistent awfulness of their attire
Chloe Freakin’ Sevigny (is there a subcategory for nominations based in part on fug and smug facial expressions?)
Victoria “brother from another planet” Beckham, plus extra points for consistent bitchface
Whoopi “I’m so great, why do I insist on dressing like a handyman from the 1950s?” Goldberg
Katy “obviously” Perry
Mischa “Hollywood hobo” Barton
Marc “behold my bones” Anthony; subject to disqualification before contest begins should he put on 25 pounds and start tucking in his shirts
Lil’ “ask me if I showered this month” Wayne
Lil’ “horrors!” Kim
Jessica “my style is postmodern blowup doll” Simpson
Solange “my mom made this and then I cut off six inches and pasted glitter on it” Knowles
Goldie Hawn (I’m sorry to do this, but what she wore to present at the Oscars was just a crime against mature women everywhere)
Jack “randy old goat, and dresses like one too” Nicholson, plus extra points for wearing sunglasses indoors
And SWINTON, I’m afraid. In the face of some truly alarming outfits, you ladies are giving her undue deference.
Can’t wait for the Madness!
Miley Cyrus. Does anyone else find her horribly annoying? She won’t be of importance in 3yrs.
Shenae Grimes
Lindsay Lohan
Tilda Swinton
Katy Perry
Beyonce
Mickey Rourke

Chloe Sevigny, naturally,
but not SWINTON. She’s far too enjoyably mad.

And Robert Pattinson’s hair.
Rose Byrne
E.R. Wood
Salma Hayek (she needs a wakeup call)
Anne Hathaway
Mary Kate Olsen
Katy Perry
Miley Cyrus
Karl Lagerfeld
Joaquin Phoenix
My top ten:
-Bai Ling
-Aubrey O’Day
-Joaquin Phoenix
-Taylor Momsen (think of it as “early intervention”- we’re doing her a favor here)
-Carrie Underwood
-Mickey Rourke
-Katie “Jordan” Price
-Courtney Love
-Katy Perry
and finally…
-Spencer & Heidi (see Jan. 29, 2009- all fugs should be measured in mere fractions of this.)
Mischa Barton must be a top seed. I’ve been thinking about her prospects all year. I also think Kate Bosworth could be a Cinderella.
I nominate, in no particular order:
1) Katy Perry
2) Aubrey O’Day
3) Courtney Love
4) Solange Knowles
5) Lisa Rinna
6) GWYNETH PALTROW
Can I nominate Joaquin Phoenix or does he fall under the Britney Rule?
How anyone could nominate anyone other than Swinton is beyond me
In no particular order:
Aubrey O’Day
Solange Knowles
Miley Cyrus
SWINTON
Shenae Grimes
Mariah Carey
Katy Perry
Chloe Sevigny
Miley
I nominate Karl Lagerfeld. Although no Bobby Trendy, the combination of fingerless gloves (at HIS age), orangey glow, lack of any expression EVER, and perennial sunglasses make him a top contender. Especially since he is obviously deadly serious about his look.
“Embarrassment is the birthplace of lust, darling, and you are crowning. PUSH.”
He is AWESOME.
Katy Perry
Sarah Jessica Parker
Beyonce
Madonna
Oooo Kevin Smith, Nancy Grace, Cojo, and Sofia Loren were awesome suggestions.
Kevin Smith and Nancy Grace
Cojo
Sofia Loren
@ Kev: Tilda Swinton as the Patron Saint of Go Fug Yourself is GENIUS! Bravo for suggesting
@ Vivianlane: You’re probably right. Rep. Delauro’s clothes are so bad that they reach Tilda Swinton levels of awesome and I’d never want her to stop dressing the way she does.
I feel I should note Rosa has been voted worst dressed on the Hill by … oh I can’t remember which capitol hill centric paper year after year and it’s common for women Members of Congress on the Hill to have fashion consultants. Maybe H&J could do a special Fug Madness for the likes of her, Nancy Grace, those princesses and the like.
Please, please, please: Renee Zelwegger. It just wouldn’t be the same without her.
Ooops, please ignore the extra text in my previous post that I forgot to delete. (I made a list because I didn’t want to forget the amazing suggestions!)
Katy Perry
Solange
Bai Ling
Beyonce
Mickey Rourke
Lil’ Kim – She is sadly overlooked in the land of Fug…if she doesn’t make it this year, promo around her appearance on Dancing With the Stars should make her a shoe-in for 2010.
I nominate Katie Holmes for the pegged pants plague and Posh cause, …Posh.
Scientology for the win!
Ugh, Lady GaGa, but I cant stand her, so maybe I’m biased. Still, she’s incapable of wearing pants.
Katy Perry, because she needs to be taken down a peg,
and Taylor Momsen, for that absurd hair and entirely annoying charector.
Has anyone nominated Sarah Silverman yet? She’s not too prolific a fugger, but she’s had some pretty bad (or, you know, fugtastic) moments.
Also, can we nominate Marc Anthony for being generally creepy, and give some sort of lifetime awesomeness award to J. Lo? Please?
-Estelle
-Katie Holmes (for believing the hype and attempting to foist those “mom” jeans and feathered top-heavy hairdo on the public. She confused “matronly” with “classy”)
-Jessica Alba (BANGS & BORING)
-Paris Hilton (for excessive matching)
-Rumer Willis
-Hayden Panettiere (her and Katie Holmes could teach classes in “How to age yourself 20 years in 20 days”)
-Miley Cyrus
-Jude Law (I can’t believe I didn’t see his name on this list already. I know the ‘stache was for a role but he dresses so AWFULLY for his body. The tapered jeans with sneakers? Stumpariffic!)
-Pete Wentz
-Jessica Biel (so washed out. Does dating JT do something to you? Cameron also was pretty blah and always looked unhappy when she was dating him.)
-Taylor Momsen
-Agyness Deyn
-Jessica Simpson (although I feel bad for nominating her for some reason. Like, she’s dressing fugly but I think it would actually hurt her feelings to be nominated or something. There’s an ernestness about her that a lot of the other nominees don’t have)
Katy Perry!
In no particular order –
Taylor Momsen: her hair is unspeakably bad, she constantly insists on that jarring red lip, and she generally looks like a giant pain in the ass.
Katie Holmes: Whew. The constant shortening and weirding of the hair, the god-awful boyfriend jeans that she kept wearing that current/elliott are now selling for a small fortune, and her sour-puss expression.
Katy Perry: Sequined fruit onesies, a Hello Kitty monstrosity on a RED CARPET (I don’t care which one it was), and that unforgivable EYE DRESS. Also, she’s everywhere, which is annoying, her hit song sucks, and her kitschy retro vibe thing is just… annoying.
Shenae Grimes: Trying to look like the offspring of an Olsen, Barton and Lohan, the fact that she was on a crap Canadian show mere months ago and now feels a giant sense of entitlement, and the
Lady Gaga: The hair bow, the latex, the no pants and the douche sunglasses. Try hard much?
Shauna Sand: Never seen without Lucite heels, and in anything less cover-y than a string bikini. It’s like some rare bird that has yet to be snapped in its mating plumage or something.
Miley Cyrus: The SMET (WTF does that even mean?) hats and the ridiculous bicycle, her scraggly hair and lame leggings. Thank god it seems that she’s given up that god-forsaken peace sign pose.
Kanye West: We get it already. Now stop being a jerk off, and get back to work making good songs.
Sofia Loren: I know she’s not as ubiquitous, as say, Katy Perry, but that nightmare she wore to the Oscars provides a year-long gut ache. Not to mention the fact that my boyfriend nearly jumped out of his seat when she was on stage – she’s lookin’ weird y’all!
Honourable Mentions:
Peaches Geldof
Agyness Deyn
Fergie
Samantha Ronson
Whitney Port
Estelle
Diane Kruger
Everyone who attended the Confessions of a Shopaholic premiere. Isla Fischer (a.k.a. Not Amy Adams or Nicole Kidman) was orange, Sophie Kinsella was wearing a hologram, and some crazy lady had on a crown. You already noticed Wendy Malick…even beloved Joan Cusack cannot go unscathed.
for the love of pete, how can you all forget JULIETTE LEWIS or COURTNEY LOVE?! why am i yelling?!
they’re the rosencrantz and guildenstern, the sonny and cher (hey, where has cher been this year?), the bonnie and clyde, the haldeman and ehrlichman of fug. phoebe price and bai ling probably have slide trays full of examples of their awesome fug they project onto their white walls to study, like an art history grad student, just how it’s done.
incidentally, i did a search of GFY on the search term “courtney love” and my computer froze. ’nuff said.
Bobby Trendy has got to make the list!
The usual suspects as well, of course:
Bai
Solange
Beyonce
Mischa Barton
SWINTON
Lisa Rinna’s punani
Drunkface McCord
Katy Perry
We could all go on and on…
oooh ooh ooh! OK, I was watching Burn Notice the other night and I just kept saying to myself, for the entire episode, what the hell is Fiona wearing? The shorts/overalls combo may have been the worst, but that ripped dress that kind of looked like a sheet was pretty fug inspiring.
I guess I cannot nominate Gabrielle Anwar herself, but I’d like to nominate the costumer or the character of Fiona. Is this at all acceptable?
Also, girls needs to eat a sub, a pizza, and wash it down with some coca cola. I am very alarmed at her skinniness and am amazed that the show’s producers seem to publicize her as ‘hot.’
personally, i am impressed that–for the first time in half a century, min–the world seems to be embracing its inner chunkstyle.
from beth ditto’s naked cover o’Love to some of our culture’s most currently current objects d’amour, meat has, perhaps? maybe? a little? hopefully? come back into season.
if i was the king of the world, tell you what i’d do:
i’d de-nominate beyoncé [& solange], jessica simpson, tyra banks, even [i think?] gwen stefani, theres gotta be more, it’s catchy.
[[[[[ switching inner soapbox to ON:
personally [redux], i spent so much of my life in a conundrum of unremitting starvation & KNOWING deep unto my good, hidden inner bone structure that anorexia is both stupid & wrong that i would truly, truly love to take these people off any negative list–theyre gonna get it anyway–until we see what they do.
will they be role models? they CAN.
lets see if they change the culture in a way that would free more than a few of our minds from that old & particularly worthless preoccupation.
soapbox now in the OFF cycle, danke danke. ]]]]]
for other, as they say, health-related issues, i’d leave out yr mickey rourkes & yr bai lings–plus i truly truly dig her Band-Aids for Enchantment & her almost impenetrable bizarroblog. then again, she probably would like the attention of a nomination. ANY nomination.
there’s also the ex-acrobat manqué who nearly knot-tied avec that old bicycling roué, crispin glover.
these kind of choices are too easy, & they rely on what may well be internal bio-clocks permanently broken in our world as they were long ago set on Some Other Timer from Some Other Lunar System, Some Other Somewhere.
which brings us all to people who really have NO excuse, ie:
–> jessica biel
–> mischa barton
–> katy perry
–> gwyneth paltrow
& who was that blonde girl who married the guy in the 99c store? big pointless scandal? THEM.
&, far be it from me to keep the singularly unattractive & almost equally pointless & inappropriate oxymoronic faux rich hippie, –>sienna miller, off yr list. i dunno, she gets under my skin. almost the way that the question:
if, as it says in yr imposed header [currently above] lindsey-l has, indeed, converted [perhaps only in the way of madonna. i didnt read it] will that mean she will try to annoy her non-yiddesheh mama the way amy winehouse continually annoys hers? there are so many permutations & complications herew/ & thereupon the mind’s boggling boggles itself.

ps.
–> 1/ maybe if people stop talking about paris hilton she will just go away, &
–> 2/ as per the crotch of lisa rinna, et al: maybe there should be a law: No Partial Exposure. if someone needs to show part of it, perhaps he or she should be compelled to show all of it? similar concept as w/ the paris hilton biz [only in reverse]: if it’s available to be there ALL the time, it will become too boring to be noticeable ANY of the time.

NOT SWINTON! WE LOVE SWINTON!
PLEASE, NO MEN!It just muddies the mix!And we really don’t have that many slots to go around
Alicia Keyes and Nicole Kidman are the worst offenders! Beautiful ladies with hot bodies shouldn’t be allowed to wreck themselves with such sartorial disasters. Not to mention, Kidman’s hair and make-up. Frick!
Swinton, Lisa Rinna, and Katie Holmes are also terrible dressers. Lisa Rinna will always have a special place in my heart though for her stellar portrayal of Billie Reed. She can inject whatever she wants into her face and I will still adore her.
Right, and if we’re including men, Brad Pitt. I’m not his biggest fan anyway, but I can at least give credit where credit is due and he is a beautiful man (not so much now as in A River Runs Through It, but still good) and he wrecks himself along the lines of Alicia Keyes and Nicole Kidman.
Old Angie should be on this list too. She’s terrible in every single possible way, but not the least of which is her clothing. Is she overcompensating for having once made out with her brother on national television and, I don’t know, drinking Billy Bob’s blood and biting the heads off puppies then reattaching them to other puppies? Ang, for serial, you don’t have to dress like a school marm for me to forget your incestuous kiss… nothing will. Wearing poorly draped sheets also won’t make me forget that you are vulgar and crazy and just plain awful. Ooh, you adopted a bunch of babies with your 80 billion dollars! What a kind-hearted woman you must be! Because loving babies is SO hard. Jerk.
I also think we should un-nomiate LiLo, Winehouse and actually Mischa Barton, because they have obvious problems. Mischa looked really cute when embracing her bottom half, but now she’s gone all boney mc’nutjob and clearly needs a healthy dose of nice creamy risotto, penne alla vodka and some sugar coated doughnuts. As do the other two.
I nominate ScarJo, Blake Lively, Taylor Momsen (raccoon eyes), J.Lo, Angelina for being boring and knowing better (also, she needs the above mentioned nutrition), Cameron Diaz, Sienna Miller, Agyness Deyn, Katy Perry and most of the above mentioned.
Love the fug madness! Procrastination ahoy!
Comments! Oh, how I miss you.
Re: Lady Gaga and Kate Perry, among others.
I think there should be some kind of distinction between what they wear on the red carpet and around town and what they wear on stage. I give Katy Perry a pass for some of her completely insane outfits because they were clearly meant as costumes, and crazy dresses are appropriate in certain situations. (Of course, if the costume is more hideous than insane, maybe it should still count? I don’t know.)
Oh, and I forgot about Heidi Klum because she’s been under the radar lately. She sometimes wears some ugly things, and it counts double because she’s a judge on Project Runway and actually gets to make decisions about this stuff.

Blake Lively
Solange
Maggie Gyllenhaal
Lisa Rinna
Taylor Momsen
Katy Perry
Lindsay Lohan
Solange Knowles!
Lisa Rinna – for getting her Vajayjay out on the red carpet
Katy Perry – for dressing like a fruit bowl
SJP – too many breasticles at the Oscars
Madonna – those guns!!
Philip Seymour Hoffman – nuff said
I nominate Taylor Momsen. She used to be so fresh faced and cute. Now scary things are happening!
I bring forward a second nomination -
Lady GaGa
I read recently that Playboy approached her but she turned them down saying that she wasn’t a ‘glamour model’. What with how little she wears in public i say Playboy wouldn’t have been much of a stretch for her!
agree with most of the nominations , I’m in the SWINTON team: she need a category for herself. Another seldom mentioned category: NY socialites, please check out some of the major blogs for the ladies TM and FB
Phoebe Price
I forgot Jessica Biel in the previous post. Justin has the most unfortunate effect on his ladies, seriously wearing a napkin to the Oscars? It can’t get any worse, but wait no it can, with Beyonce being a human vase?
Beyonce is the most boring, attention-seeking, suffocating herself celeb-ever. I don’t know how she can even breathe with these dresses, she deserves a medal or something for wearing things that are at least two sizes small. And don’t get me started on that pose. She looks like a retarted robot. I had given the first place to Jessica Simpson but I pity Simpson. She is a sad human being, whereas Beyonce… She really is “the fug”.
I must add that I am suprised by some nominations. Anne Hathaway? Kate Beckinsale? I mean they may have some weird outfits but overall, they are one of the best dressing actresses around.
Also as for Nicole Kidman’s hair which everyone criticizes… She IS stunning as a redhead, however she obviously suffers from female type of hair loss (it’s genetic and cannot be cured)and dying her hair to that whitish blonde avoids her scalp showing through. If her hair was red, most people would be now making fun of her being bald or something.
I actually enjoy Tilda Swinton, she chooses the most ridiculus things to wear and she should be in a category in herself, I agree, like “the most creative fug”.
Victoria ‘Posh’ Beckham!!
Are foreign celebs ok ?
If so, I’d like to nominate the gladiator things that Shy’m wore at the NRJ music awards. They were truly fug.
Can we have the odd comments moment now and then? This is a lot of fun!
Anyway, my vote goes to ( Take a deep breath):
Shenae Grimes ( For consistently transferring her odiousness into her sartorial choices)
Drunkface! ( Pretty hair cannot make up for her undying love re the formal shorts)
Miley Cyrus ( Not even the Princess Barbie dress can make up for ripped tights.)
Aubrey O’Day ( For pure holiciousness and cruelty to her pet accessory,Cough, i mean her pet dog)
Jessica Biel ( Did she get a degree in forgettableness? Will she soon become like that girl in the Buffy episode wherein she was so overlooked at high school that she became invisible?)
Solange Knowles ( You are no Diana Ross. Put down the feathers and walk away slowly.)
Zac Efron with tonged bangs.
Bemoustachioed Brad Pitt.
Pamela Anderson ( When wearing Baywatch inspired gear)
Evan Rachel Wood ( For keeping the make up industry going in these hard times.)
Taylor Momsen ( For allround sulkyness and That Haircut.)
Jordan ( Whenever, Wherever)
Jessica Simpson ( For High waisted jeans NOT because of the fact she started eating proper meals again.)
Any Kardashian Celeb
Ommision:
Swinton ( The patron saint of this website.)
M.I.A ( only because it is SUPPOSED to be fugly. Only unintentional perpetrators of fugliness should be nominated.))
Jordan
Lagerfeld
VICTORIA BECKHAM!!!

The dynamic duo of Bobby Trendy and P squared! Two fame whores lost in the land of “WTF are you wearing?”
Maxima Zorreguieta!!!!!!!!!!The Netherlands
http://www.reinamaxima.com/moda-reciclados08.html
I nominate Katie Holmes (or Kate Cruise or whatever she calls herself these days) for those god-awful tight rolled jeans that haven’t seen the light of day since 1991.
I have to go with:
SWINTON
Kardash..
Katie Holmes (lest we forget the pegged boyfriend jeans)
Solange
Sharon Stone (how I love her)
Posh (heel-less boot fabulousness)
Jessica and the lesser Simpson
Bai Ling of course
BRITNEY S.
Cate Blanchett
Paris
Nancy O’Dell
Simon Cowell
Joaquin
Drew Barrymore for the Golden Globes
Cameron Diaz (ditto)
Sienna
Madonna
Katie Holmes
Hayden Panettiere
Mischa Barton
Fergie
Gwyneth Paltrow
Anne Hathaway
Christina Aguilera
Maggie Gyllenhaal
Kate Bosworth
The all seem to try hard, but often get it wrong
Madonna (for that green grass dress thing that was a fashion ABOMINATION)
Gwyneth Paltrow (for wearing ridiculous shoes and mini skirts in the most brazen attempt to get newpaper inches ever); she should know better
Peaches Geldof (outfits look insane most of the time)
Agyness Deyn (ditto comments re-Peaches)
SWINTON and OLSEN, (mk obviously) xx
Tyra Banks…gives me nightmares, and now in my nightmares she is outfitted in that crazy queen-witch outfit, blond wig, and almost-white contacts she wore in last season’s ANTM. If that doesn’t give you chills, I don’t know what will.
The entire cast of Twilight, for having absolutely no clue how to dress themselves in everyday life, or crack a smile.
Can we also add Robert Pattinson to the bad facial hair category? The eyebrows alone are terrifying to me.
Lady GaGa, not only for her obvious disdain of pants (how committed must that woman be to extremely regular, possibly daily, bikini waxing?!) but also for the completely unnecessary use of glasses.
Victoria Beckham, for her constant level of high-maintenance, groomed looks that make the rest of us look extremely bad for leaving the house in sweats to buy milk. Her arrogance over her appearance and her desperate need for a sandwhich also annoy me beyond belief.
I love your writing style. I don’t know who 90 % of these people are and don’t follow fashion at all but I visit your blog almost every day because you are so funny! And why did pantyhose become so heinous? Many of those featured have gnarly looking legs.
1. Lady GaGa
2. Agyness Deyn
3. Taylor Momsen
4. Katy Perry
After reading too many of the comments (I’ve been bored), I think I pretty much know who the final 65 will be… but then HOW to decide the winner? The promlem is, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD am I supposed to choose between the different TYPES of fug? I mean, there are obviously about four select groups;
Secretly Awesome – Bai Ling (reigning champ), SWINTON (clear favourite if we think who’s worn the wackiest stuff), Sarah Brightman (why isn’t she nominated more?), Mickey Rourke (just amazing), Marisa Tomei, Sharon Stone, Paula Abdul
OMG WE ALL KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND I DON’T WANT TO GIVE YOU ANY MORE ATTENTION SO JUST DIE NOW PLEASE – Perez Hilton, Katy Perry (errrrr), Lady Gaga, Bobby Trendy, Solange, Lisa Rinna, Phoebe Price
The Epitome Of Fug (Usually In An Everyday Setting)- Micsha Barton, Aubrey O’Day, Speidi, Katie Holmes, Kardashians (as a kollektive), 90210/The Hills/GG Casts, LiLo & SamRo
You’re Hot, And Your Clothes Are Kinda Fug, But PLEASE SHOWER AND WASH YOUR HAIR – Jessica Biel, Robert Pattinson, JOAQUIN PHOENIX (I just realised I NEVER notice what he’s wearing, as my eyes are always on his face)
BIG YAWN… – Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Aniston… hmm, no-one else comes to mind. Yeah, just let them have a duel
DEAR GOD DRESS YOUR AGE – Evan Rachel Wood, Madonna, Mariah Carey, TAYLOR MOMSEN (clear winner in this group), Pamela Anderson
So yeah… which way do we vote? On the hot topic of SWINTON, I just ADORE the idea of her getting a kind of Lifetime Achievement Award and being the Patron Saint of Fug. Who else could possibly compare?
Aubrey O’Day – bulging, veiny breasts just don’t go with anything
Mickey Rourke – being insane and trying to look insane are two different things
Carrie Underwood – tries too hard and always looks so contrived
Gwyneth Paltrow – Miss Perfect (in her own mine) looks trussed in way too tight, way too short everything
Coco and Ice-T – WTF
Mos’ def’ the basics:
Katy Perry
Solange
SJPee Pee
Mischa Barfug
Roisin Murfug
Aubrey O’Day
Joaquin Phoenix
I would also like to add:
Coco (since we can’t have Bai)
The Pussycat Dolls
and Katie Holmes, because if I can’t punch her in her cat face, then I can at least nominate her fug.
Oops!
I forgot the GaGa!
So glad others thought of Brad Pitt. Add me to the list. His interpretation of the eighties redux seems to be to turn right into George Michaels. So what about a special category for men who hit it big in the eighties now regularly hitting the fug list? I’m thinking they’re all there. Mickey Rourke, check. Brad, check. Johnny Depp, check. And wasn’t there something seriously wrong with the color of Ferris’s hair at the Oscars?
Why do people keep saying Khloe should be on the list? Has anyone seen Kim lately? She was wearing talons and a pointy-shouldered blazer the last time we saw her on this blog. Khloe manages to wear normal (although not overwhelmingly cute) dresses out in public most of the time. What am I missing?
Also, you know if Khloe does well (or poorly?) in Fug Madness, we’ll all just have to hear Kim and Kourtney (aka Kim II) talking about it on their show and call her a badly dressed psycho. And Khloe is the only funny one on that show, so I don’t want her being made fun of. Especially since I’ve never seen her out in gold talons or a jumpsuit.
-Lisa Rinna, if only for the crotch incident.
-Agnes Deyn
-MIA
-Solange/Beyonce
-Swinton
-Brangelina (his moustache, her refusal to wear color)
-Phillip Seymour Hoffman (there’s no getting over the knitted cap!)
-Bai Ling
-Katy Perry
-Sharon Stone…
I’d like to also add to my list: Madonna, Pete Wentz, Sam Ronson (or however you spell Lindsay’s gf), Sienna Miller
I’d just like to add my name to those who believe Katie Holmes should be a highly-seeded fug contender this year. For those jeans alone.
I’m going for Scarlett Johansson.
I mean really, she’s gorgeous and runs around in these super-bland/stumpy outfits. I think I want her on there because she just disappoints me so.
And Marisa Tomei for her wackadoo awards outfits.
And then there’s all the obvious/horrible contenders.
Pixie Geldoff
Peaches Geldoff
Princess Eugenie
Kate Moss
SJP
Kevin Federline
Ann Hathaway
Princess Beatrice
Elizabeth Hurley
Guy Richey
Gwenyth Paltrow
SWINTON, all the way.
Beyonce and beyond…
Solange
Sarah Jessica Parka
The Olsen twine
Lindsay Lohan
Sam Ronan…does she count?
Miley Cyrus
Paula Abdul
Kanye West
Mickey Rourke
lady gaga
tilda swinton
sharon stone
miley cyrus
victoria beckham
mischa barton
Kate Moss
Sienna Miller
Katy Perry
Paris Hilton
Lisa Rinna
Beyonce
Jessica Simpson
Evan Rachel Wood
Mickey Rourke
Zac Efron
Joaquin Phoenix
SJP
Misha Barton
Katy Perry
Sasha Fierce
Katy Perry
Katy Perry
Katy Perry
Katy Perry
…and Katy Perry. I mean, she really has mastered the art of subtlety, but….
Also, can we just poor one out for B and C Peldon? Where have the Sisters Peldon gone?!?!?!?
I would like to nominate the pantless 3, Gaga for her take on a floral teapot at the Brits, Micha Barton because either her or her stylist is completly insane, i’m thinking maybe both and Lohan for inflicting her hideous leggings collection upon the world.
I also agree that Swinton needs her own catagory, the womans a genius!
Women: Hands down, Phoebe Price. This woman has made me utter “WTF” so many times that with the money I submit to the swear jar, I could take a Caribbean vacation.
Men: There’s no other option than Joaquin Phoenix. How could such a hot piece turn into THAT?! Damn.
I concur about LiLo regarding the BSpears law. She should be exempt this year.
Okay, the tweens who need to wait a hot minute before dressing like adults, adults with bad taste
Miley Cyrus
Vanessa Hudgens
Samantha Ronson
Even Rachel Wood
Perez Hilton! He’d probably just love the attention, but he’s fugtastic.
Reading all these great comments, I had to add more noms:
Rumer “Hollywood brat with no discernible talent, personality or style but hey I get invited everywhere” Willis
Katie “pegged jeans with heels and hose” Holmes-Cruise
Paris “obviously” Hilton
Simon “love handles” Cowell
Karl “ewwww” Lagerfeld
Here are some new ones I think:
Rush “greasy lardbag” Limbaugh (seriously, politics aside, the man is a crime against the eyeballs of humanity)
Rod “hairball on tracksuit” Blagoevich
Matthew “stoked!” or “I’m too sexy for my clothes” McConnaughy
Chris “dirty old man with awkward hair dye issues” Matthews
Anyone who thinks a T shirt and gold chains is evening wear.
Madonna, for the bandages (gross)
The Jonas Brothers (don’t know their individual names, but they offend me collectively)
Lisa Rinna
Angelina Jolie
Keira Knightley – they’re called pies, woman. Eat them.
Joaquin Phoenix… it’s all been said already!
Mischa Barton: what has she done lately besides dress hideously?
Beyonce: I don’t think she’s such a great singer, either.
Solange: see Mischa Barton
Katy Perry: see Beyonce
Bai Ling: for old times’ sake
Lisa Rinna: do her lips get their own fug?
Sharon Stone: the grand poo-bah of fug
Jessica Biel: I’m not angry, I’m just disappointed
Jennifer Connelly: ….and she’s not such a great actress, either
(Don’t want to nominate Phoebe Price, why give her publicity she doesn’t deserve?)
Heather and Jessica, thank you for all you do and all you are (sniff sniff)
SWINTON!
Taylor. Momsen.
At no point in time should a “homeless fifteen year old playing with scarlet lipstick” be considered stylish. Therefore, she must be fugged.
Can’t wait for this year’s round!
Oooh, and I second all the noms for Lisa Rinna, Solange, Rumer Willis, and Nicole Kidman.
Malin Akerman
GO TEAM SWINTON!!!!!
There really needs to be a separate category for fug-brokers. Think of how much fug Rachel Zoe and Patricia Field have brought to the world.
A few men:
Pete Wentz – stumpy, Elmer’s Glue haired, Hot Topic shopper.
Does Joaquin even count?
How is Robert Downey Jr. not on this list yet? Such potential, but such a tendency toward shiny suits with velvet collars and general weird pimpiness.
Zac Posen! His weird oily hair and his pseudo-dandy outfits! This picture sums it all up so nicely: http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2007/stylewatch/blog/071126/zac_posen_300x400.jpg
Jude Law for making me sad by looking so oily and icky, when he could be so handsome.
Johnny Depp (how this pains me!) for dressing like someon’s eccentric old-man uncle when he’s Johnny freakin’ Depp. Showcase that!
OH! I forgot about Lil Mama! Anyone who watched this season of America’s Best Dance Crew knows what I’m talking about, but for those who didn’t you should just put together a montage of screencaps from each show. She is absolutely ridiculous.
I’m too lazy to read thru all the other posts, but I didn’t want these two missed. I nominate:
Courtney Love
Kim Kardashin
Aubrey O’Day
Solange Knowles
Katie Price
Paula Abdul
Katy Perry, Lindsay Lohan, Solange Knowles.
Miley Cyrus because she disgusts me
Taylor Momsen
Paris Hilton
Katy Perry (not even good enough to be the low rent version of zooey deschanel)
Solange (although really, I like her better than Beyonce)
Scarlett Johansson (can’t act, can’t sing, can’t dress for shit. The only thing she’s got going for her is big boobs and being in her twenties)
Hilary Duff (superfug clothes, and no one gets away with insulting Faye Dunaway)
Jonas Brothers- (they dress like girls but not the way the cool gay guys do it. the younger two are full of shit, and I feel sorry for the oldest one that they call the ugly Jonas brother. sad)
Brad Pitt/ Angie Jolie (these homewreckers are seriously sucking the hot out of each other)
Gwyneth Paltrow- (for someone who is so full of GOOP, you think she would know how to dress herself)
Lady Gaga- (is an intergalactic mess)
I agree with Candole on the omissions of SWINTON and MIA due to their severe awesomeness (i also enjoy writing their names in capital letters)
Can you guys add a plastic surgery category or a look who was separated at birth category, same face, same doctor kind a thing.
Cameron Diaz
Madonna
Angelina
Kate Hudson
PLEASE DON’T FORGET
GWYNETH PALTROW
claire daines
as normal nominees
I also vote for the one, the only
SWINTON
I NOMINATE NATALIE PORTMAN AND HER GAYFACE
SWINTON
Solange Knowles
Aubrey O’Day
Taylor Momsen
Lisa Rinna
Lady Gaga
1. Angelina Jolie – so boring
2. Pamela Anderson – so whory
3. Lisa Rinna – so desperate
4. Mischa Barton – so high
5. Beyonce – so tight
6. Solange – so tacky
7. Katy Perry – so stupid
8. Paula Abdul – so crazy
9. Kate Hudson – so full of herself
10. Gwen Stefani – so over
(Please try another shade of lipstick, Please)
1. Sting- go back to blond and shave.
2. Joaquin Phoenix- I don’t need to comment.
3. Kanye West -what a dick
4. Pete Wentz – clean up for Christ sakes – you’re a DAD now !
5. OH — I forgot a couple of the ladies –
Debra Messing – something is always wrong – so close yet so far as one person aptly put it !
MAGGIE Gylenhaal -never saw her in an outfit I liked – never.
in consideration of a few things:
#1 their level of celebrity, which affects,
#2 their ability to hire a good stylist, which also kind of affects,
#3 what kind of statement they’re making
- ( for example, tilda swinton is a crazy bitch. she’s odd looking, like an art project or something and i kind of feel like she knows it and i kind of feel like she plays into it.)
and finally #4 if they are even relevant anymore.
So my pics are:
- Jennifer Anniston – we GET IT. you like black.
- Anne Hathaway – we GET IT. you are a pretentious theater kid.
- Mariah Carey – we GET IT. you’re really afraid of getting old.
- Amy Adams – homegirl needs to get a grippp.
- Angelina Jolie – *yawn.
bai ling is irrelevant.
linday lohan is irrelevant.
katy perry is completely playing a character.
-
paris hilton and beyonce!!!
Um… Keira Knightly, please? Girl, close your mouth and try to look a little less loopy/hopped up on quaaludes! And also stop with the jumpsuits. And also stop hanging out with Sienna it’s not helping your cause. Or hers. Though I think we’ve officially given up on her, so no worries there.
That is all.
Kiki Dunst
Keira K
Gwyneth
Reese W is creeping up on fug lately
Beyonce and Solange, obvs
Katie H although does she get a pass for the same reason Rihanna does?
Kanye West
Bill Maher because I’m still absolutely sure that Oscars suit was made of rubber
Scarlett J
Cameron D – I would love to see her up against Biel
and no I don’t mean that the way it sounds!
Ohh my god, is the fug madness!! (i´m so excited!! )
Ok, ok, here i go :
- Solange Knowles
- Mischa Barton ( it´s just me or that girl needs to eat more ? or eat, a least.)
- Jessica Biel
- Claire Danes
* i know there´s a lot of people voting on SWINTON ( and we all can understand why) but i just CAN´T do this!! I mean, is THE SWINTON everyone! Her fugness is so sublime and elegant, and absolutely unique that i think she´s just bigger than all of this. Like a evolved human being, or something.
* this is gonna sound really silly, but i have to say that you girls, are just amazing!
Thanks for this great work!
I´m from Brazil and we love you here
Swinton
Lohan
Posh- Victoria Beckham
Katie Holmes
Madonna
Lisa Rina
Coco- Ice T’s wife
Lady Gaga
Jaquin Phoenix
Kanye West
Brad Pitt
Randy Newman
Solange Knowles
Beyonce Knowles
Katy Perry
Lady Gaga
CHLOE SEVIGNY. Seriously.
Brad Pitt – for the mustache, there are NO good mustaches
Rumer Willis
Dita Von Teese – for being exactly the same for YEARS now. *yawn*
and most of the usual suspects that everyone has been posting.
I forgot my favorite mother/daughter fug team: Hudson and Hawn. Oh, just to see a few pictures of them side by side in their muu-muus and messy hair… isn’t that what Fug Madness is all about?
Can’t wait to fill out my brackets!
Leelee Sobieski, Taylor Momsen, Tilda Swinton, Alicia Keys, Katy Perry, Mischa Barton, Solange, Ashley Tisdale, Vanessa Hudgens (Seriously, what is wrong with our young starlets? they alternately dress as 80 year old women or hookers)
Courtney Love
Taylor Momsen
Taylor Momsen’s make-up
Taylor Momsen’s shitty attitude/that puss that’s always on her face.
(I know those three all go together… but seriously, there should be a face off to see which is the worst)
Hayden Panettiere (She either looks completely fabulous or like a woman four times her age)
The Kardashians
Joaquin… though I agree, does he count? Should we give him any more attention?
Gwennie – The one thing I can’t stand more than anything is horrible clothes with a smugh, holier-than-thou attitude
Bai Ling
Katy Perry
SOLANGE!
Beyonce
Rihanna
Katie Holmes
Tilda Swinton
Lindsay Lohan
Shanae Grimes (sp?) and Drunkface McCord
Lisa Rinna
SJP
Madonna
Lady Gaga
Paula Abdul
Chloe Svigny
Agyness Deyn
Taylor Momsen
jessica biel
mischa barton
carrie underwood
kate bosworth
victoria beckham
miley sirus
Justin Bobby- The hills. Please for the love of all things good in the world….shower!
Taylor Momsen is easily a 2 seed if not a 1. Girl is everwhere and rarely a “Well Played” in sight.
Solange has also made a good case for a 1 or 2 seed.
Also Jennifer Connelly no lower than a 4 seed for actually wearing that Balenciaga monstrosity in public.
But my money is on SWINTON to take the prize.
P.S. I’d like to see Leighton Meester as a low seed (15 or 16) as a slap on the wrist for ruining her gorgeous season 1 hair with highlights and bangs.
Gwenyth—and there are a lot of people to nominate, but none as deserving as this pretentious, FUGLY snob.
Looking at Madonna’s Oscar pic,
she is morphing into Nicollette Sheridan.
I had to look twice at that one.
Madge is going fug.
Nicollette is fug.
Chloe Sevigny
Tilda Swinton
no one can compare to these two
A special award should go to Dakota Fanning as the Teen Anti-Fug.
She presents herself exactly as a young, pretty, and normal teen celebrity should.
Seriously, she probably presents the only opportunity to say something positive about celebs in her age group.
Also
Nicole Kidman (8) – wax figure
Kate Bosworth (3) – all around terrible
And, because it bears repeating and I haven’t seen her name enough:
Jennifer Connelly (1) – The Balenciaga!
Mischa Barton!
I think we should exclude Bjork, Tilda Swinton and Bai Ling on account of not being human. But then it wouldn’t be fun for anybody.
So I give a sole nomination to Aubrey O’Day. So many things wrong with that ‘lady’.
Courtney Love.
Courtney Love.
Courtney Love.
This past year, my favorites have been:
Lisa Rinna
Mischa Barton
KANYE WEST because…..just…seriously, wow
O, and Paula Abdul….for being one HOT, HOT fug….
Lady Gaga
Bai Ling
Katy Perry, Phoebe Price, Bai Ling, Beyonce, Solange, Paris Hilton, SWINTON, Sharon Stone, Lisa Rinna, Katie Holmes (she did wear those pegged jeans within the past year, correct?), Mickey Rourke, Karl Lagerfeld, Cate Blanchett.. oh this will be so fun!
oh yeah, and Taylor Momsen. girl drives me batty.
Mischa Barton
Solange
Katy Perry
and THE SWINTON!!!
I wrote ‘fug madness’ into my calendar this year wooo!
SWINTON (love)
jessica boring biel
bai ling
britney
bret michaels
those stick insects from the daily 10 (do they lack spines)?
although she’s like a mother to me – whoopi
I’d also like to nominate heather and jessica for the most cataclismicly radical bloggers awards.
Sharon Stone is a contender with incredible fugsinstency, however the completely top-transparent dress puts her as the #1 seed in my book! Ooo and Solange Knowles for never meeting a feathered item she WOULDN’T don!
Swinton
I forgot to add Lisa Rinna – can I add her to my list? Please?
Oh, and Lisa Rinna’s Oscar night LIPS, too.
SWINTON
Lisa Rinna
Paris
Beyonce
I nominate Aubrey O’Day for not only being Fugtastic but Skanktastic to the 10th power.
For men, I would like to nominate Joaquin Phoenix (congrats on ruining your career, perhaps you’ll be successful during Fug Madness as well.)
Lindsay Lohan – she inflicted the world with LEGGINGS WITH KNEEPADS. EXPENSIVE LEGGINGS WITH KNEEPADS. There should be a Fug trophy for “Worst Designs Made Available to Impressionable and Brainless Teenagers with Credit Cards”
1. Agyness Deyn – because she always looks like a hot mess and I’m tired of fashion mags drooling over what ‘Aggy’ did next.
2. Katie Holmes – for starting the horrible boyfriend/pegged up jeans and heels trend.
3. Katie Perry – for trying way too hard all the time.
4. Swinton – for being so freakin’ awesome.
1. Mickey Rourke
2. Janice Dickinson
3. Zac Efron
4. Evan Rachel Wood
5. Shenae Grimes
6. CHUCK BASS.
7. Gwyneth Paltrow
8. Zooey Deschanel
9. Mena Suvari
10. Joaquin Phoenix
Two words: Little J.
Seems as though the previous posts have covered all the important bases, and i agree entirely with Bridget’s brackets – although can’t we make room for Grace Jones and Bjork as our patron saints? Who is the male equivalent? I vote Andre 3000.
Please, god, don’t let Speidi win ANYTHING…
I’m going with the category- “Fugtastic, yet far above mere mortals”
Of course, SWINTON is the queen and Daniel Day-Lewis is the king. I mean really- brown shoes and a tux? Orange plaid? I love him, but those two outfits just made me want to rip the clothes right off of him and…
oo.
Sorry… Got distracted.
Anyway- Everyone else has taken all my other thoughts, so I’ll just stick with the royal two.
Gwyneth Paltrow has had a rough year, but hands down, Courtney Love. Yikes.
Just Momsen
I suggest that Amy Winehouse also be disqualified under Britney Law. Girl is a mess, but she’s gone from drug addiction to messy divorce, with anorexia and a failing career added in for flavor.
Katie Holmes. not for the boyfriend jeans so much but for the boyfriend. nobody looks good wearing Tom Cruise.
Kate Winslet for dressing like a dowager.
Aah yeah awesome! I’ve been waiting for this the whole year!
So, my nominees are:
1. Lady GaGa… Her name already says it, she’s absolutely insane!
2. Solange Knowles… Actually beats her own crazy sis, although she comes in third
3. Beyonce Knowles… The iron hand. Enough said.
4. Aubrey O’Day. Her boobs are always on display in awful clothing. And her boobs aren’t even that awesome.
5. Taylor Momsen! Even though she’s still young…
Swinton should get a life time achievement award though, not a nomination between all these crazy people!
I NOMINATE YOUR MOM.
KATY PERRY!
KATY PERRY!
KATY PERRY!
In no particular order:
Gwyneth Paltrow
M.I.A.
Beyonce
Mariah Carey
Miley Cyrus
Lisa Rinna, easy… She’s the queen of crotchtacular.
Swinton (Tilda baby, I love you, keep fugging…)
Katy Perry
Katie Holmes
Mena Suvari
Misha Barton
Blanchett, ever other day…
Courtney Love
Beyoncé
There can be only one male winner:
Joaquin Phoenix
Joaquin Phoenix
Bai Ling
Tilda Swinton
Katy Perry
Paris Hilton
Solange Knowles
Misha Barton
SJP
Courtney Love
Lisa Rinna
Mary Kate Olsen
Phoebe Price
Sting (Inauguration Ball appearance was a CRIME)!
Fug Madness! So excited! Anyway…
-Shenae Grimes
-Katy Perry
-SWINTON
-Solange (give it to her; it’s the one area where she outshines her sister)
-Roisin Murphy
-Phoebe Price
-Courtney Love
-Lady Gaga
-Mischa Barton
-Aubrey O’Day
God bless you, Fug Girls. You are truly doing God’s work here. And by God, of course I mean Joan Collins.
and I forgot Paula Abdul and Sharon Stone
Lady Gaga
Agyness Deyn
Taylor Momsen
“Kate” Cruise (she seems nice, but can she stop trying to set stupid trends?)
Joaquin Phoenix
Tom Cruise (not sure why he hasn’t been nominated, I feel like there’s a whiff of cuckoo about a lot of his outfits. And hair cuts.)
And I believe Gaga truly deserves the crown but I don’t think she would understand that it wasn’t a good thing to win. She looks BAD. All. The. Time.
Also I agree with the current unnomiation decision made by the Fug Girls and don’t think it should be added to. Obviously everyone has problems and I’m sure you could find a reason to take out everyone on the list…let’s just leave it as it is though.
-Lady Gaga
-Lilly Allen
-Katy Perry
-Mickey Rourke
-SWINTON
-Shenae Grimes
-Taylor Momsen
CROWN PRINCESS MARY OF DENMARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This might be Aubrey O’Day’s year.
Debra Messing for channeling Sweeny Todd at the Emmys
Amy Adams for that blue jersey fabric mess from the Globes
Scarly-Jo for that floral monstrosity at the He’s just not blah blah blah red carpet.
I nominate Taylor Momsen.
I do hope you still have the mono-named, grand dames of FUG presiding over the brackets: Cher, Madonna, Björk, and Charo. They just make Fug Madness all the more perfect!
I don’t think anyone has said Jordan/Katie Price, which is a travesty.
True, she doesn’t technically wear “clothes” but she MUST be a contestant all the same.
Aubrey O’Day
Lindsey Lohan
SWINTON
Lisa Rinna (the slit that will live in infamy)
Lady Gaga
Solange
Beyonce (the metal claw, dear god!)
Mickey Rourke
Sharon Stone
PEREZ!
Rumer Willis

Maggie Gyllenhaal (or however the fug she spells her name)
Frida Pinto
Mary Murphy (my own personal peeve- she’s that lunatic screaming judge with the TEETH from “So You Think You Can Dance”)
Shenae Grimes
Jessica Biel
Tori Spelling
Evan Rachel Wood
Pussycat Dolls — all of them
Lily Allen — don’t forget about her
Amy Winehouse — she should have a permanent spot
Rumer Willis – well, she’s more just plain ugly than anything else
Ashton Kutcher
Holly Madison
Maggie Gyllenhaal — Dark Knight premieres
Heidi and Spencer
Whitney Port
Solange, Mickey Rourke, Speidi, Whitney Port, Jessica Simpson, Katie Holmes, Joaquin Pheonix, Perez Hilton, Cindy McCain, Agnyess Deyn (sp?).
Mickey Rourke
Brad Pitt
Sarah Jessica Parker
Eva Longoria
Katy Perry
Jessica Simpson
Paris Hilton
Amy Winehouse
HIllary Clinton, all the way. She was like a giant fug for the entire year. there is never an excuse for a neon pantsuit. she is a terrific example of someone who really has just zero taste.
Swinton (!)
Katie Perry
Misha Barton
LiLo
Samantha Ronson
Solange
Oh my goodness so many to choose from…
Pheobe Price
SWINTON
Lady GaGa
Katy Perry (but I feel like she’ll love the attention)
Can I also put in a request for an Amnesty on Amy Winehouse for the same reason as Rihanna…sister’s going through enough as it is.
Elisabeth hasselbeck is the worst!
Also please include:
the 90210 girls
miley
paula a.

madonna

Beyonce Knowles! Not only for her fugged up bridesmaid look, but also for the POSE. Renee Zelleweger also has a weird pose, and while usually her clothes are pretty and classy, the pose ruins it!
Lisa Rinna for so many reasons.
Obviously, Lindsay Lohan.
Tilda Swinton for the ladies and Mickey Rourke for the men
*Not necessarily most fugly to least fugly*
Paula Abdul
1) Chloe Sevigny
2) Taylor Momsen

1. Lisa Rinna’s lips
2. Posh
3. Swinton
4. Jessica Simpson
Phoebe Price should not be included. It just encourages her.
Just wanted to add my comments to the great nominations. After thinking about this I find it hard to nominate people when there are at least 3 different kinds of fugs.
1. People who are REALLY tacky just to be noticed. (Bobby Trendy)
2. People who think they are actually quite in fashion while the rest of us are left scratching our heads. (Mischa Barton)
3. People who really don’t care about how they look and just put on what they have on the floor or what their stylist gives them. (Robert Pattinson)
So how can we get to the queen and king of fug when the motives are so different? Maybe in the future there could be divisions? Forgive me, just thoughts floating through my mind while in the shower.
Personally I think the second type is the worst type of offender. We can expect crazy wackadoo from Bai and Bobby – it’s the ones who are trying to start trends who are really scary. (Solange)
Love the site – it always makes my day!
BEYONCE, BEYONCE, BEYONCE!!
Lisa Rinna
John Mayer!
KATY PERRY.
Aubrey O’day.
Solange AND Beyonce.
Keira Knightley.
Lady Gaga.
Swinton, Madonna, Solange, Beyonce, Bai Ling, Lohan, Sam Ronson, Mariah Carey, Amy Winehouse, Pussycat Dolls (all or one), Nicole Richie
oh please, please, please, adrien brody and his grease bath! and goopy gweneth paltrow!
I’d like to suggest that entries for this tournament be limited to outfits worn to events where there was an expectation that the participants were “bringing it.” Throwing on gardening clogs and a raincoat to fetch your newspaper should not be given equal weight as the same outfit on the red carpet. Therefore I think stage costumes and airport attire should be off limits for the competition.
Gwyneth Paltrow and her skanktastic year in fug.
Katy Perry
remember the merry-go-round dress? that made me cry.
Amy Adams (I love, love, love her which makes her fashion sins so hard to bear.)
George Clooney (Not because I think he’s the fug, though. I just like looking at him.)
Please consider adding European royalty to your fuggings this year. The top contender by far is
Crown Princess Mary of Denmark, née Donaldson
She was born Australian, so her inclusion will delight your many Aussie readers, sick as they are of sister’s Looker Me! Tours back home at the cost of the Danish taxpayer.
Mary is what is called in Aussie slang as a bogan, which relates more or less to your term hick. She was also a good-time gal before meeting the drunk Crown Prince Frederik and his black Amex in a Sydney bar during the 2000 Olympics and rubbing his chest to get his attention. Conveniently, Frederik is a weakling with mother issues. Their wedding took place in 2004.
Since then, Mary has taken the black Amex and bought herself Prada, Hugo Boss and Malene Birger. She is the patroness of Danish fashion, but prefers the Italians, which she wears to histerical results. If it’s not her polterwang or bra strap saying hello, it’s sweaty, hairy armpits, like at the 60th birthday for the King of Sweden. Once a bogan, always a bogan, even with a tiara on her head!
Check out this beauty: a navy sweater with gold sequin stripes and a black skirt.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v488/lotte52/drws2/07mkII/BBno262007MChristianDalum.jpg
Or this Malene Birger: http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1407/1409003426_3c64a0303a.jpg?v=0 . She later wore the same Claire’s Boutique stretch belt with a Mary Poppins top and rugby striped skirt to Buckingham Palace in November.
Thank you for your consideration of our favourite royal bogan!
Courtney Love. Nicole Kidman. And Solange Knowles.
SWINTON, however, can do no wrong.
1. Joaquin Phoenix
2. Solange
3. Paris Hilton
4. Monica
5. Lady Gaga
6. JC Chasez, hot as he is, the clothse, they make my eyes burn.
7. Jessica Biel, who CAN NOT DRESS which I blame on…
8. Justin Timberlake, who spent the better part of a year dressed like he was going to rob someone.
9. Taylor Momsen
10. Chuck Bass, can you nominate fictional characters?
11. Katy Perry
12. SWINTON
13. Katie Price
14. Katie Holmes
15. Lisa Rinna
Miley Cyrus.
I love you people. That is all.
I gotta got with Courtney Love, she’s had some truly horrid moments the last couple times, (oohf. that feather!)
For the guys, Joaquin Phoneix takes the cake.
There is so much fug out there it’s hard to narrow it down to only a few, but I’d have to nominate the following:
Tilda Swinton
Paris Hilton
Beyon(d belief)ce
and for a little Man Fug,
Joaquin Phoenix
He deserves the award for that fuggly beard ALONE.
Here are a few who haven’t gotten enough mention, IMHO:
K Fed
Rachel Zoe
Christina Aguilera
Diane Kruger
Rumer Willis
Kimberly Stewart
Jessica Simpson
Cameron Diaz
M.I.A.
Katie Price
Bret Michaels
Philip Seymour Hoffman
1. Aubrey O’Day, and her poor, poor mutt of a dog
2. Bai Ling still makes the cut
3. Mischa Barton, bring down the mistress of headscarves please!
4. Evan Rachel Wood’s face (her outfits are up to you)
5. The Other Knowles knows she is in for it
Lady Gaga, for the pantyhose over shorts/general lack of clothes.
Katy Perry, for the jumpsuits/eyeboobs dress/hello kitty disaster.
SJP, for the cloven hoof boots/oscars shelf.
Dita Von Teese, because we get it-you’re into vintage.
Lisa Rinna for…well everything.
Katy Perry
Lindsay Lohan
Joaquin Phoenix
Amy Winehouse
Beyonce
Solange
Kate Bosworth
Katie Holmes
Kirsten Dunst
Lindsay Lohan
Mischa Barton
Pamela Anderson
Scarlett Johansson

Madonna
Brad Pitt
Katherine Heigl
Posh & Becks
Scarlett Johansson
Robert Pattinson
Jennifer Connelly
I can’t wait to see SWINTON take it out. We know it’s her.
But Lady Gaga and Katy Perry must be included for crimes of exclusion (pants division).
Tilda Swinton, Kat[i]e Holmes, Lindsay Blohan, Mischa Barton, Phoebe Price, the sisters Knowles, Aubrey O’Day, Bai Ling, Mickey Rourke
Miley Cyrus
Madonna (that green feather thing haunts me, even though I want one)
Katie Holmes (pegged jeans, nuff said)

Sharon Stone
Lisa Rinna
Lohan, Ronson, Solange
Courtney Love

ScarJo
LiLo
Gwyenth Paltrow
Chloe Sevigny
Paula Adbul
I love that 90% of all the comments on this post have the word “SWINTON!” in them somewhere (almost always capitalized and usually with the exclamation point). Fug Girls, you have truly given the world a gift by raising Swinton awareness among your readers and coining that nickname.
I agree with the previous commentor (http://gofugyourself.celebuzz.com/go_fug_yourself/2009/02/fug_madness_is_right_around_th.html#comment-323461) who said that JHud should definitely be out of the running given the major tragedy in her life this year. I’m guessing it’s not really an issue, though, since I think I only saw her name mentioned as a nominee in one comment above.
For some weird reason, I feel like the Britney Law SHOULDN’T apply to Amy Winehouse, but I can’t think of any legitimate reason that she should be the exception. Maybe I just really don’t like her and have never noticed it before?
I think some research of the GFY archives is in order before I make any suggestions of my own. Jessica and Heather – thanks for orchestrating Fug Madness and generally being some of the most hilarious people on the internets!
Well done Mel… well nomiated.
I only have two nominations, because I can think of excuses for all the others… be it a result of ‘getting older in hollywood’ or ‘being the heaps less hot and heaps less talented sister’ or ‘cute-hotness cavorting as kookiness’ or ‘you know what I just don’t care’.
These two have no excuse:
Lady Gaga(g).
Gwenyeth. I don’t even WANT to spell her name right.
Also, can we toss in (perhaps as the #65 and play-in nominee) whoever it was that told Hollywood starlets to stand with their legs crossed for photos so that they ALWAYS look like they really, really have to pee?
Fugliest:
1. Katy Perry – Get some pants, seriously.
2. Solange Knowles – Never forgetting the socks.
3. Terri Hatcher – Just ew.
4. Paris Hilton – Just because.
5. Angelina Jolie – Saggy and boring.
Nicest:
1. Keira Knightley – Although serious food is in order.
2. Helen Mirren – Hell yeah.
3. Evan Rachel Wood – For un-goth-ing herself finally.
4. Halle Berry – I want to be her.
5. Hilary Duff – She is improving…
Mischa Barton (for the win this year, I believe. Homegirl didn’t have ONE good outfit this year)
Katy Perry
Katie Holmes
Solange
Beyonce
Bai
Stupid fucking Phoebe Price, even though I hate giving her one iota of attention (even if it IS negative attention…)
Aubrey O’Day
Miley Cyrus (not counting her Oscar dress, which I adored… mostly just those damn blue-fringed boots)
Pete Wentz
Mickey Rourke
Jessica Simpson
Courtney Love
Lady Gaga
Pam Anderson
La Lohan and La Ronson
Carry on, you fabulous Fug Girls! Can’t wait for the games to begin!
kirsten dunst
mischa barton
katie holmes (baggy rolled cuff jeans)
courtney love
cameron diaz (it’s the grooming)
jessica biel (TRY, for cryin’ out loud. enough with the workout clothes)
dita von teese (it’s just a costume now. yawn. you look like a wayward extra from a period piece. )
angelina (you can do better)
j. aniston (you can do better too)
janet jackson
boys
michael jackson (can we get a hall of fug lifetime achievement award here?)
phil spector
Scar Jo
She needs a lifetime dismemberment award for her god awful round, multi colored tatoo that looks like an admission sticker to the planetarium. Somewhere in Indiana a moth ball wants its 1958 floral draperies back. Fug to the max.
Kelly Wearstler!
1. Beyonce
2. Katy Perry
3. Jay Emmanuel
4. Jessica Biel
5. Kanye
6. Brett Michaels
7. Paris Hilton
Hayden Panettiere (how does a 19 year old look like she’s 49 most of the time??)
Miley Cyrus
Shenae Grimes
Vanessa Hudgens
Kristen Stewart
Jaime Spears (Brit Brit’s pops…yuck)
Angelina Jolie (BO-ring…such wasted potential)
Keira Knightly
Cameron Diaz (The Globes?)
Drew Barrymore (The Globes?!?!)
Mariah Carey (eternal offender)
Rumer Willis
Gwyneth
Jessica Biel
Taylor Momsen
I’d just like to say that Swinton is a goddess and an innovator. I think she was sent from another planet to make us all very happy.
this is so glorious
AUBREY FUGGING O’DAY
solange
i love swinton so much but i have to nominate in spite of that
Miley Cyrus
Philip Seymour Hoffman
Annalynne Mccord
Lisa Rinna
Katy Perry
Mariah Carey
Anne Hathaway…………she is from my town, everyone hates her.
MADONNA EW
SJP of course
Momsen
Kanye for the hair, i hate it
and Jay z for the glasses
over and out
Please nominate Maggie Gyllenhaal. She didn’t make it last year and she so richly deserves it because she ALWAYS looks awful.
Chloe Sevigny deserves another chance at the crown.
Renee Zellweger, especially for that Golden Globes monstrosity.
J.Lo.Hewitt, Sep 22 2008.
Please back me up on this-Juliette Lewis demands to be added to the list.
Taylor Momsen
Evan Rachel Wood
I nominate them for similar reasons, they both wear too much make-up and try to look too old.
Beyonce, she always looks fat but she isn’t. That’s the worst kind.
Kirsten Dunst, it’s like she buys tons of weird clothes at several yard sales and wonders off to her basement to stitch the hell out of them, just because she’s bored, obviously. And then she wears it.
Blake Lively, I don’t understand how there can be so many things that she does not look good in. It’s the easiest job in the world for, FCS.
Jessica Simpson, because OMG.
Solange Knowles
Lisa Rinna
SWINTON
Miley Cirus
Tarja P. Henson (how can you be the best and the worst at the Oscars? awk-ward)
Mickey “Dogs Aren’t Accessories” Rourke
Sorry, SJP
Jessica Beil solely because she is farking with Justin Timberlake and she has bad middle school hair that should go with acne and awkwardly fitting jeans.
Paula Abdul, interesting that you are all of a sudden coherent on Season 8 so far, doesn’t make up for the Revolutionary War Jacket.
Honorable Mention: Evan Rachel Wood for all the makeup.
Courtney Love- wears actual garbage
Diane Kruger and Kate Bosworth- high fashion’s lil’ darlings are so overrated
Blake Lively- you are gorgeous, please go up one size in everything you wear
SJP- just because of those shoes!
Angelina Jolie- how can you be so hot and manage to look so boring?
Jessica Simpson- obviously. she cannot dress herself
Taylor Momsen
Lily “No-Talent” Allen
The Swinton
Drunk-Face McCord
Katie Holmes’ denim collection
DIANE KRUGER (I can’t believe nobody has said it yet)!!!
I love me some B-Ball – but this is my REAL MARCH MADNESS…
Let’s get my personal trophy winner out of the way first:
- PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE HEATHER & JESSICA, *KELLY WEARSTLER*
Following, in random order:
- CHRISTINA AGUILERA
- KELLY WEARSTLER
- KATY PERRY
- RUMER WILLIS (She has her sights set high, ladies…)
- PEREZ HILTON (I’m BEGGING you…)
- CATE BLANCHETT
- CHRISTIAN SORIANO
- ANNE HATHAWAY
- AUBREY O’DAY
1) ScarJo (too long or short little girl dresses)
Shanna Grimes or whatever her name is from 90210… remember when she was on Degrassi?
2) Courtney Love (because you know she thinks she is hot like that)
3) Sarah Jessica Parker (all due to squished boob-ness)
4) Ashely Tisdale – Ew, that girl has no taste
5) Ben Affleck (it’s like he forgot what razors are for)
6) Jessica Biel -booorrrriiinngggg fug
7) Sheryl Crow – a wowman with that body can do so much better.
Each of these entries have NO REASON to fug… yet they do!
Shanna or whatever…. because she thinks she is important and we should care about her crappy acting by dressing fuggly to be noticed. Well i guess it worked.
here is my rationale
1) ScarJo married the hottest dude from the great white north last year… and should be at the top of her game, yet she just looks awful.
2) Courtney Love wears really expensive nice clothes in a way that makes you want to vomit. As formentioned, she seems to think she looks good like this.
3)Sarah Jessica Parker is a style icon, yet seems to be yanking up her strapless dresses every time she is an event. No way to set a style example.
4) Ashley Tisdale has style ADHD and always magages to look bad even though she has the money to hire a stylist.
5) Ben Affleck… please go back to being hot, because we all know you can!
6)Jessica Biel goes to events and pretents like she can dress herself, but she has no willingness to step it up when i comes to streetwear. Weak sauce.
7) Sheryl Crow should be a model for adult health, but you can’t present her to society because she always looks so randomly put together
Agyness Deyn. She’s so annoying and her clothes are grotesque. I always pronounce her ludicrous pretentiously-spelled made-up model name as age-y-ness just to annoy her, supposing she passes by my living room window when i’m reading a magazine and slagging her off to my friend.
Ladies, (and gentlemen….) look east, there is a very obvious candidate for this list, the loquaciously limited bogan buffoon, Mary the Clown Princess of Denmark, who has an incredible knack for mixing expensive evening attire with, – cardigans!!, amongst other things! Debasing designer togs with her idiosyncrasies is her speciality, cheapo plastic bracelets….the list goes on. Check it out, if only in the name of humour!!….fug’s the word! Thanks!
momsen
rinna
barton
scarjo
I actually like that dress on Bai Ling. She’s working it. It’s a whole lotta more fabric than the rest of the contents of her closet combined for one thing. The color is pretty on her for another. Serioulsy… there must be something wrong with me, but aside from her special brand of crazy posing… that dress ain’t fug on her.
Bai is all powerful and awesome, she should rule her own country where everyone gets to dress so, well, awesomely.
Oh, how to choose…
My contenders will probably be pretty similar to others’:
Solange Knowles
Lisa Rinna
Bai Ling
Mischa Barton
Oh geez, how did I forget…Lady GaGa is way up on my list too. Because she is CRAZY.
perez hilton
victoria beckham
Bai Ling
SWINTON
Lisa Rinna
Solange
Britney Spears
Ladies! Ya’ all can’t dress for shit!
PRINCESS MAXIMA OF THE NETHERLANDS!!!!!!
SHE DOESN’T EVEN BOTHER TO DO HER HAIR BEFORE GOING OUT THE DOOR
Angelina Jolie for crimes against colour
SWINTON
Pacey Witter, er, Josh Jackson. Just lately – what is with THE HATS?
Mischa, obviously, ditto Agyness.
Chuck Bass (I know he’s not real, but oh, if he were…)
Kristin Bell, for stumposity; ditto ScarJo
JAIME WINSTONE. Please, make her stop. And Alfie Allen while you’re at it.
SamRo and LiLo
Keira Knightley
Emma Watson
Alice Dellal!!!!
Oh Mickey he’s so fine, he’s so fine he blows my mind hey Mickey Rourke.
Blake Lively – why won’t she wear dresses that fit her? Whhhhhhhy?
She hasn’t been mentioned much already, but I think she’s a rank outsider who could take more established fuggers easily: Roisin Murphy. Crazy as a bag of hammers.
And Little J. For the horror that is her hair.
Lady Ga Ga. Not just because she has adopted the prefix “lady” without doing anything to deserve it, but because she tries to elevate dressing like a prostitute from Mad Max beyond it’s natural level of a bad joke. And because when asked who she was wearing at a recent event, she replied “I am art.”
PHOEBE PRICE!!!
She is disgustingly, addictively, transfixing in all the wrong ways…
Others who rate, but don’t compare:
-Solange
-Taylor Momsen
-Courtney Love (Particularly “Fug on to me”, with the garbage shoes!)
-”Arrested Fugvelopment” – Just wtf?!
-Aubrey O’Day
-Lady Gaga
They are all fugged up…
All of those people who hang out together in East London deserve to be on this list, but whenever I see photographs of them I die inside and hate the fact that they’re getting any attention at all.
But whatevs, if they have to get press, it might as well be bad press:
Agyness Deyn
The Geldof brats
Alice Delal
Jaime Winstone
But also v keen to see more of SOLANGE.
Also: Gwyneth Paltrow, for having the cheek to tell other people what to wear on Goop
Keira Knightly and Sienna Miller (they’re one person in my head at the moment, equally smug and irritating of smile and dress sense)
Lindsay and Mischa, though I think they’d both look a lot better if they just ate a bit more.
And Joaquin Phoenix if he doesn’t start explaining himself soon.
The Skanky one from Danity Kane
Anyone from a british soap opera at the Soap Awards (Hollyoaks girls are a real favourite of mine)
Danielle Lloyd
Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace
Ice T’s Missus, Coco is it?
Lady Gaga
Lily Allen looks like a tramp half the time so she needs to be there as well
Lindsay Lohan, leggings need to go away NOW
I’ve read most of these, and I’m baffled at nominations of SWINTON over Solange, Perry and Rinna.
SWINTON never looks frumpy or insecure, just odd – while the others make the rest of us look good on our worst PMS day in sweats. Let’s get some perspective, people; don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.
Please include Tilda Swinton and Victoria Beckham. They’re just so delightful.
Please include Tilda Swinton and Victoria Beckham. They’re just so delightful.
Nominees: Sharon Stone, Jennifer Lopez, Solange, Rene Zellweger en Joaquin Phoenix
Can we have a drab/snooze category? (a fugtegory?) Angelina and Jennifer could compete.
Sienna Miller.
Rumer Willis.
Mischa Barton.
Taylor Momsen.
God….. Taylor Momsen!
Add them to the list ladies. Thanks, x
Beyonce
Swinton <3
Jessica Biel
Renee Zellweger (can qualify w/her Golden Globes appearance alone)
I’d say Sienna Miller but I am just so tired of looking at her, I’d rather just leave her out.
Phoebe Price, because I am NOT tired of her
Carrie Underwood
J-Simp’s Mom Jeans
Angelina Jolie! PLEASE! She was SO fug this past year, it was unbelievable. Always with the loose, bland dresses, winged eyeliner and aging up-do. Variety is the spice of life!
I believe these nominees would really turn it up for Fug Madness…
Solange
Lisa Rinna
Karl Lagerfeld
Pussycat Dolls
SWINTON
Patricia Fields has been nominated, right? Hers is a formidable fug.
Taylor Mumsen has my number one nomination – the haircut alone would do it!
1. Fugyness Deyn
2. SWINTON (my favorite, easily in the final four)
3. Leave me a Lohan & Ronsan (can they be counted as one just by the severity of their co-dependence?)
4. Angelina Jolie (but she has manipulated everyone into thinking that she pisses gold, so she probably will not climb the charts of fugness)
5. The Dunst
I have a feeling SWINTON might spark the same philosophical debates inspired by Bai Ling last year…
I’m so excited !
ok i see a lot of really appropriate nominees up there already. there’s one more that needs to be added pretty badly: olivia wilde.
she’s the essence of fug. i don’t think i have ever seen that one dressed well in the real world.
My hit list:
1.) Courtney Love – her best fug year yet.
2.) Katy Perry – Join the circus already!
3.) Lisa Rinna- often mistaken for Wayland Flowers’ puppet Madam.
4.)Phoebe Price – Fug is fug, even if it’s shameless self-promotion.
5.)Lady Gaga – ditto.
6.) Renee Zellweger
7.) Solange
8.) Bai Ling – goes without saying.
9.) Pete Wentz
10.) Vincent Gallo – just because.
Katy Perry
Solange Knowles
Beyonce
Sarah Jessica Parker
Katie Holmes
Hayden Pannetierre (especially for her makeup)
Maggie Glyllenhal
Mischa Barton
Taylor Momsen
Gwenyth Paltrow
Shenae Grimes
Kim Kardashian
People like Bai Ling, SWINTON and Mickey Rourke automatically get a pass – they’re reliably Fugly, and they make it their OWN!
I nominate:
Maggie Gyllenhal (consistently unflattering choices)
Courtney Love (Gypsy-chic)
Solange Knowles (words fail me)
Mischa Barton (enough with the headbands and leggings, already)
Kim Kardashian (Yes, your boobs are spectacular, now put them away)
Swinton
Katy Perry
Lohan
Katy Perry, Lily Allen, Jessica Biel, Taylor Momsen, Aubrey O’Day, Chase Masterson, Anna Plunkett, Phoebe Price
Looking forward to the crowning of someone who actually looks like they made a real effort to be fashion forward/chic and failed miserably (i.e. DEBRA MESSING, MADONNA, MISCHA, EVAN RACHEL WOOD, RENEE ZELWEGGER, KEIRA KNIGHTLEY, ALL OF THE D.H.) and not someone/someone’s stylist who is just clearly effing with us (i.e. SOLANGE, BAI, PAULA ABDUL, KATY PERRY, JORDAN, JONAS BROTHERS etc).
Duh…
Tyra Banks. I mean WOW!
RENEE ZELLWEGER. That transparent-topped, crazy-aunt-nene-tasered-her-handlers-and-broke-out-of-the-attic-and-is-looking-for-the-nearest-army-base ensemble really boggles the mind.
Sadly, I do not have the time to read through 752 posts this morning, since I am here at work in 6″ of snow with more coming down. I need to get some stuff done in case they decide to close the office early. *fingers crossed*
Anyway, I’m sure they’ve all been said, but the first people to pop into my head were Mischa Barton (who looks hideous in every picture I’ve seen of her this year, and not just because she’s essentially a skeleton with skin at this point), Katy Perry, anyone who is a Pussycat Doll, Beyonce, and that Taylor Momsen child (oh, honey, please stop with that hair). I’m sure there are more, and if I think of them, I’ll be back.
I did notice in my brief skimming, and must back up, the choice of Joaquin Phoenix for the men’s division champion. Honestly, I don’t even think there’s a need for competition with that giant mountain-man face carpet he’s sporting. Yeegh.
Im sure this has been mentioned numerous times but I dont think it can be mentioned enough.
Lady GaGa.
She dresses like a hooker from the ice planet Zolton.
For the men:
Bobby Trendy (who always looks like craft store threw up on him)
Philip Seymour Hoffman (hello Oscars hat!)
Katie Price/Jordan
Gwyneth Paltrow
Janet Jackson
Misha Barton
Lisa Rinna.
Katy Perry.
SWINTON.
…and, my personal favorite, the ever divine Miss Bai Ling.
And if these jokers hadn’t blinded me this past year, I could probably come up with a couple others. I seem to remember that the lovely young Misses Geldof, proud alumnae of the Cractackular School of Fashion and Deportment, were usually dressed charmingly…
Beyonce Knowles
Beyonce Knowles
Beyonce Knowles
Angelina Jolie (for the wasted opportunities alone)
Solange Knowles
Tina Knowles (for crimes against the collective eyesight of humanity)
Beyonce
Beyonce
BEYONCE
Women:
Rihanna
Beyoncé
Hayden Panettiere
Blake Lively
and
Angelina Jolie for being boring when it comes to color.
Men:
David Duchovny (Still can’t get over how messy he looked at the X-Files 2 premiere)
kate bosworth
solange
SWINTON!
Paris Hilton
Lindsay Lohan
Sharon Stone
Bai Ling
J. Lo’s husband
Mischa Barton
Lisa Rinna
Phoebe Price, Aubrey O’Day & Katy Perry (especially for that nasty green romper on the home page).
First, I just have to say I wish we ALWAYS had comments. There are so many times when I want to add a witty comment and cannot
. Second, I think everyone I would have nominated is already up there: Olsens, Kristen Stewart, Jessica Biel, Beyonce, Lindsay Lohan, etc.
Someone else’s posted just reminded me of one for the men:
PLEASE put the Jonas Brothers on there. They make me laugh everytime I see them. I mean, why are their pants so tight?! I’m sure they’re sweet boys but YIKES!
I feel there should be a category devoted to any “celebrity” who “designed” a fashion line. Even with date restrictions there are many contenders: Perez Hilton, Paris Hilton, Ashlee Simpson, Chloe Sevigny, Heidi Montag, Lauren Conrad, LiLo, M.I.A., Beyonce/Tina Knowles, et al. It is tempting to judge many of these for the outfits they themselves wear to events–but in some cases the greater crime is the fug they are selling(!). (NB: dereon.com)
SWINTON!!
Solange
Katy Perry
Aubrey O’Day
Bai Ling (does that even need to be said)
Samantha Ronson
Mischa Barton
Beyonce aka Sasha Fierce, LOL
Taylor Momsen
Katie Holmes! If I see another pair of pegged pants, I might just scream. And can we throw Suri in as a questionable accessory?

Anyone from the cast of Desperate Fugwives.
1. Joaquin Phoenix
2. Jordan
3. Lisa Rinna
4. Katy Perry
5. Jessica Simpson
6. Kate Bosworth (so much potential and yet, so much fug)
7. Kirsten Dunst
8. SWINTON
9. Bai Ling (as always)
10. Taylor Momsen
11. Phoebe Price (again, as always)
12. Katie Holmes (again, potential unrealized)

14. Criss Angel
15. Lady Gaga
16. Madonna
17. Aubrey O’Day
18. All of the Pussycat Dolls
19. Mischa Barton
20. Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson
If the rules are 08-09, then SJP wins a top seed. That hat she wore to the premiere of SATC. The boob shelf. The cloven hooves!
Also, Kanye.
It HAS to be Katy Perry, anyone who wears a working carousel, then thinks ‘gee this really isn’t crazy enough, I did, afterall, kiss a girl’, and THEN changes into a half suit half ballgown needs to be sectioned. Period.
I’d also like to nominate Lily Allen. Not only is she untalented, a public nuisance here in London and all round general twat, but she also stole my friend’s boyfriend. Oh, and she looks like a crack addict in a too-tight frock most of the time too.

ScarJo needs a nom for dressing like a toddler half the time. Also, she consistently wears way too much makeup. And wasn’t her fugerrific music video out this year? Scarlett Johannson, I nominate thee!!
Evan Rachel Wood also deserves a nom for her paintbrush-heavy cosmetics. And consistent bitch-face.
Solange

Please note, these are just the main losers I could think of right off the top of my head.
In no particular order:
Aubrey O’Day
Phoebe Price
Jessica Simpson
Katie Holmes
Solange
Joaquin Phoenix
Mischa Barton
Lisa Rinna
Lady GaGa
Courtney Love
Pussycat Dolls
Pete Wentz
Mariah Carey
Chloe Sevigny just because she thinks she is hot sh#$, and her clothes are in piss poor taste.
Aubrey O’Day, nuff said.
Alicia Keys, because I am tired of seeing her camel toe
Katy Perry, because she kissed a girl and apparently liked it. Clothes suck too.
Kirsten Dunst, purely based on the poor posture alone, but her clothes are horrible as well.
The Olsen Twins…. whateve.
Taylor Momsen
Aubrey O’Day
Katy Perry
Lady GaGa
Kelly Wearstler!
I urge you to include Diane Kruger, Jennifer Connelly, and Kiera Kneightly, who all have been mentioned, but appear to be on the bubble.
I’m surprised to see Clare Danes, who seems mostly passable with some notable slip-ups. Or am I missing something?
Meryl Streep and Courtney Love could be this year’s Cinderellas.
Top seeds have been mentioned repeatedly–Mischa, Jessica B., J. Simp (for the career-ending jeans), LiLo, SamRo, and all the Katie(y)s.
Chloe Sevigney.
All Day, every day.
She is gorgeous and the witch doesn’t seem to age, but seriously I can’t believe I am the first to suggest her.
Keep up the fug work
What about some of those Footballer Wives from across the pond? I don’t know their names but I have always enjoyed their shenanigans when the Fug Girls post them.
Mischa Barton because she gives hippie-chic a bad name
Taylor Momsen because she dresses like she’s 30
Lady Gaga because pretty pleeease but on more clothes
- Solange
- Beyoncé
- Aubrey O’Day
- Katy Perry
- Katie Holmes
- Taylor Momsen
- Shenae Grimes
in defense of swinton:
to me, she is the antithesis of what i consider fug. sure, her clothes are bizarre (to say the very least) but they are clearly a direct reflection of her personality, and worn without any bit of pretension or irony. my definition of fug falls more on the side of kate bosworth, diane kruger, rachel bilson, vanessa hudgens, SJP, mark kate olsen, and katie holmes, due to the desperation with which they cling to trends (particularly the ugliest ones-ray bans, pegged jeans, camel toe shoes, shoulder pads etc).
Solange
Emmy Rossum
Lisa Rinna
HOUSE OF DEREON
Christina Aguilrea’s makeup
Lindsay Leggings Lohan
Her Imperial Galactic Highness, Paula Abdul
Micha Barton – honestly, I’d rather see her wear something boring instead of something boringly hideous.
M.I.A. – the “wow…just wow” tag was made for her
SJP
Mickey Hot Mess Rourke
Robert Pattinson – look into shampoo!
The Olsen Twins a.k.a. The Golden Girls
Perez Pepto Bismal Hilton
Pete Wentz
Pussycat Dolls – Could you be any more predictable?
Can we decide beforehand whether FUG is good or bad? Because really, I’d say SWINTON FTW if fug is fab. But if fug is just plain ugly, I’d vote the House of Dereon in its entirety.
Also, I don’t think Bai should be able to reign 2 years in a row. This needs to be a one time honor.
Lohan’s crazy fugging splitends & shirt/dresses
Jared Leto
Whoopi Goldberg
Sheryl Crow
Kevin Federline
Oh mon Dieu, Lisa Rinna. and GWYNETH (fug personality?)and Renee Zelleweger. She is going through a fugly transition right now.
Taylor Momsen
Lady Gaga
Solange
Mischa Barton
P.Price
L. Lohan
Paris Hilton
The Kardashians
Lisa Rinna
Katy Perry
Bai Ling
SWINTON
I have seen where Kayne has been mentioned.
What about that ugly ass-flat top blonde-androgynous feel-pissed off Posh looking woman, Amber Rose,he is dating? If she is supposed to be a model, why was she sitting on the sidelines at Fashion Week??
Fugly woman and Fugly style.
I would like to UNnominate The Sev this year; she kind of had a good year, and everyone knows it. These ladies, conversely, did not:
Taylor Momsen
Nikki Cox
Lisa Rinna
Jessica Biel
Evan Rachel Wood
Whoopi Goldberg
Oksana Baiul
Paula Abdul
Jordan Price
Juliette Lewis (although I do love her)
Wild card: Teyana Taylor (what she lacks in a body of work, she makes up for in memorability)
I would like to nominate Solange.
Not so much for the fact that her outfits tend to look like someone ate a packet full of starbursts candy and threw it all up onto her leggings (my apologies for the vulgarity of that statement, but you know the disturbing though did cross your mind as well). More so it is because she is a beautiful and possibly talented young lady that seems to be spending a great deal of time attempting to snag some of her sisters attention. Solanage could very well be an amazing painter, writer, scientist, or something else entirely. Yet we will never know as she is currently spending all of her effort gluing feathers to her cloths. Unless of course feather gluing is her passion, in which case, more power to her.
I am never against unique style, as long as it is done for the right reasons.
SJP for thinking she’s such a fashion icon and dressing like THAT. (and also for looking like a horse.)
SWINTON! SWINTON!!
SJP for thinking she’s such a fashion icon and dressing like THAT. (and also for looking like a horse.)
I nominate, in no particular order:
1. Beyonce
2. Solange
3. Taylor Momsen
4. Gwyneth Paltrow
5. Katy Perry
6. Katie Price/Jordan
7. Lily Allen
8. Aubrey O’Day
I hope there is going to be a category for Purveyors of Fug because the following should be nominated:
1. Rachel Zoe
2. Tina Knowles
3. Karl Lagerfeld
And as for all the anti-Joaquin sentiment I see here, he is less a case of out and out fug and more a case of seriously bad grooming.
MILEY CYRUS
Mickey Rourke, because he’s not only consistent, he’s fully committed. Mickey KNOWS he looks good. And of course he’s kind of right, which makes it even more fun.
For the ladies, no one comes closer this year than Beyonce, for the exact same reasons. She looks awful almost always, but deep inside she’s positive that she looks fabulous, so by the time she flexes the little robot glove, I’m agreeing with her.
In no particular order….
SWINTON
Solange Knowles
Katy Perry
Joaquin Phoenix – because he is going to have to get used to being the top man-Fug if he’s going to continue down this “rap career” road.
Mischa Barton
Lisa Rinna
Kirsten Dunst
SJP (btw, what do her friends call her? Sarah? Sarah Jessica? SarJess? SJ? I need answers.)
Karl Lagerfield
Phoebe Price
Little J
Bai Ling
Most of these are quite obvious, but these are the ones I would most like to see in the brackets this year!
I know that he’s never been all that fashionable..but at least prior to this year he didn’t look like himself playing Joaquin Pheonix playing the Unibomber. And for sinking so low I nominate Chris Angel for the men’s side of this fug-down.
taylor momsen
SJP
blake lively
i have no fashion sense at all, yet can see these glaring crimes.
Oxsana Baiul (as much as it pains me to say so) could win this, even with a cheated triple flip.
How about an Off Their Rocker category? Rickety Rockers (Bret Michaels) vs Tattooed Twits (pick one or twenty) vs Eyelinered Eewwws(Ashley Simp’s dude) vs Wannabees – Whatever! (Joaquin Phoenix)
Katy Perry for sure.
As well as Beyonce for that metal glove she wore.
Aubrey O’Day and her pink dog too.
What about Miley Cyrus?
Love Fug Madness!
Okay:
Aubrey O’Day (Sleazetastic!)
Paris Hilton

Ladies Battle Royale:
Solange v. Aubrey O’Veins – I mean Day
For the men, the headgear smackdown:
fugly fedoras on Mraz, Kutcher, knitcap nightmare on the dude at the Oscars, anything Piven wore to cover up the plugs.
Swinton (but with a lotta love)
K-Ho(lmes) because she knows better
Katy Perry -Seriously ,seriously!
Lisa Rinna (my wife couldn’t stop staring at her lips, she froze the Oscar coverage for a good minute just to gawk!
SJP -because cloven hooves give me the heebie-jeebies
and Lilo for past, present, and future legging atrocities…
I hope to see Jessica Biel, Mylie Cyrus, Jessica Simpson, Katie Holmes, Tom Cruise (we need some men, I think – were there many Joaquin sightings in 08?), and that Aubrey girl (with the dog she likes to torture).
Getting my pom poms ready for the big showdown!
Karl Lagerfeld – if he is going to claim to be a fashion designer than he should know better!
Agnes Deyn
Gwyneth Paltrow
Taylor Momsen
Mischa Barton
Dita Von Teese
Erin Wasson
Whitney Port – and that Erin girl from the city with her ridiculous headgear!
Kate Hudson

David Hasselhoff. I am tired of seeing his orange chest due to his inability to wear anything with more than the last 3 buttons fastened.
PALTROW.
Cris Angel! I read through some of the comments, I can’t believe he’s not nominated! He dresses half his age, looks like he never bathes and he wears more makeup than I do! His jewelery looks like half my body weight as well as being made of whatever cheap metal was lying around. If I saw him on the street I’m pretty sure I’d be laughing through my dry heaves!

Swinton is pure genius, year’s ahead of her time and ours. She is alpha.

Bobby Trendy, Aubrey O’day
(Im rooting for Solange)
Taylor effing Momson.
Roisin Murphy (seems to be attempting to characterize herself as edgy and fashion forward, but doesn’t seem to realize that edgy and fashion forward don’t have to look like that.)
Agyness Deyn (getting the love in Vogue magazine, appears to be giving everyone a giant middle finger in her real life fashion choices … she may be a great model, but her personal style is nothing to get all excited about)
Sienna Miller (I get stabby and all-capsy whenever Vogue refers to her as a “style icon”)
Kate Bosworth (Vogue loves her, I can’t understand why – what’s so interesting about her and her clothes? Really, she should get a place in the bracket due to her inability to realize that dying her hair white and pulling it back tightly does her no favors.)
The Olson Twins (these women have fashion lines?!)
Beyonce (this woman has a fashion line?!)
SJP (whom I love, but those cloven hoofed boots alone deserve a place in the bracket)
I feel like these people (with the possible exception of Roisin Murphy) really embody the purpose of this website – to snark on people who are foisting their questionable fashion sensibilities on the masses as though it is the very height of fashionable and fabulous, but have the money and the contacts (and presumably multiple houses filled with multiple mirrors) that they should really know better … and you know society in general doesn’t need these people representing that leggings with holes in them (on purpose) and cloven hoofed boots are the height of fashion, so they need to be part of Fug Madness to help drive that point home …
Katy Perry, Lindsay Lohan, Beyonce, Mickey Rourke
Kate Bosworth deserves a spot this year, amoung the usually suspects that make it to the tourney.
Kelly Wearstler. That woman is SINGULAR.
For me these people DO NOT get it and think they look good!
Paula Abdul
Beyonce
Solange
Jessica Simpson
Linsay Lohan
Mischa Barton
Paris Hilton
SJP
Gwyneth Paltrow
Scarlett Johannsen
Moore-Kutcher Clan

Jessica Simpson
Katie Holmes
Amy Winehouse
Lohan/Ronson
Sienna Miller
Agyness Deyn
Katy Perry
Miley Cyrus
Lily Allen
Taylor Momsen
Blake Lively (not because she dresses horribly but because she has sooooo much more to work with and is consistently hovering between underwhelming and not good)
Please do NOT touch SWINTON or Blanchett — both are genius!!!
xoxo
Mickey Rorke. Or however you spell his ugliness.
Hillary Duff! WHY won’t she dress in clothing flattering to her particular shape? And why does she continue to accentuate her giant forehead instead of trimming a nice sideswept bang up there? She should win because she COULD be beautiful but refuses to.
Roisin Murphy – lovie you are not SWINTON. Live with it.
Sienna Miller – for always looking a little bit grubby.
Anna Friel – but really only for her hidjus fringe in Daisies. That probably doesn’t qualify.
If it helps swing it, Heather might like to know I once saw Joan Collins at a party and she was surrounded by men a third of her age bringing her glasses of white wine. Which is the retirement package we all want.
How, HOW could I have forgotten Brad Pitt’s ongoing love affair with little old man hats? And the mustache? Oy vey…
Brad Pitt on the men’s side.
Katie Price/Jordan – and can I nominate the poor unfortunate horse too?
Alice Dellal – why, God, why?
Agyness Deyn – the 80s aren’t ironic if you still have random items of shoulder-padded clothing in your wardrobe so sorry Blondie, you’re out . . .
Naomi Watts – so much potential and yet so many sludge coloured outfits, urgh
Angelina Jolie – dress your age, woman, for pity’s sake!
Jon Favreau – (actor/director not Obama scriptwriter)I love a bigger man, but not when he dressed like a toddler.
Aubrey O’Day
Miley Cyrus
Paris Hilton, because that “woman” deserves every single bit of hate thrown at her.
Amy Winehouse
Lady GaGa! Why must she wear unitards?
SJP. Her mole makes me all capsy.

LMAO:
“Jay Manual just for his pompously irritating hair”
And SWINTON is a demi-goddess. I LIVE for her.
I would like to put in a vote for exempting the winehouse. Fashion really is the least of her problems right now.
CATE BLANCHETT come now she basically wore a gold glitter bell, this needs to be discussed.
Also, i haven’t seen Anne Hathaway on here enough.
For the men Russell Brand
and Mel Gibson for the Colonel Sanders facial hair.
Don’t ignore them just because they don’t attend mainstream award shows and no actual photographer takes pictures of them! Let’s join together for all that is holy and create a Rock of Fug Tour Bus bracket. It is simply unfair to single out a single lady from that moving target, but if I must, let that special lady be DJ Tribe. Otherwise, please consider a complilation of the finest that the ladies offered so far this season. Let us also not forget the owner of the finest European hair extensions that money can buy and the reason for this ultimate trainwreck, Bret Michaels!
Aubrey O’Boobs needs a formidable opponent! Silicone against outrageously huge silicone. We need to level the playing field here.
WINEHOUSE: always looks like she slept in her car and needs a shower.
Taylor Momsen, Katy Perry, Aubrey O’Day, Jessica Simpson

katy perry

Definitely Joaquim Phoenix and Tilda Swinton.
Aubrey O’Day
Katie Holmes
Lindsay Lohan
Courney Love
Amy Winehouse
Katy Perry
Lilly Allen
Mischa Barton, Shenae Grimes, Miley Cyrus, Kate Hudson, Solange, Evan Rachael Woods, Lady Gaga, Lisa Rinna, SJP, LiLo, Olsen twins, Paris Hilton, Renee Zellweger. So many fugs, so little time.
Russell Brand
Tilda Swinton
That is all.
Just one:
Mickey Rourke
Gwen Stefani.
Game, set, match.
She looks like something from an Amy Winehouse hallucination brought on by formaldehyde and donkey tranquilisers.
Or the child of Geddy Lee after being gang-raped by Big Bird,David Lee Roth and The Joker.
Pete Wentz & A-Simp. Please make the Emo hair go away.
Carrie Underwood. Always clean, but boring and hyper-styled (a la Shania Twain back in the day).
Angelina Jolie, Paris Hilton, Solange, Lindsey Lohan, Lady Gaga, Amy Winehouse. For the men, Lil Wayne!
I think I found one that no one has mentioned. The truly fugtasticness that is Aretha Franklin.
WELL, since you asked!
I almost consider these nominations more as tokens of affection rather than burns.
Taylor Momson – I TOO thought raccoon eyes made me look dangerous and maybe boys with deadlocks would make out with me at 16. Of course, I’m from central Missouri and had like, Walgreens as my makeup mecca, what’s your excuse?
Jared Leto – STOP DOING THAT STUFF TO YOUR FACE/HAIR/DOUCHETASTICRY. Please don’t make that solid year and a half of lusting after you so meaningless.
Cris Angel – Actually this isn’t much of a token of affection, but his name should really have popped up more on here. Does he ever not look like the worst guy you never made out with but your best friend did and you will never, ever let her live it down?
Scarlett Johannsen – For a girl that comes off so smart and so self-assured, she seems to get sort of insecure with her clothes. “Alright, I’m gonna just throw my boobs in their faces! That’s what everybody wants, right? NO! I’m not that type of girl! Appreciate my MIND while I wear my 7th grade piano recital dress.”

mischa barton (she’s made an end of the year PUSH for a seed)
swinton (and i say this with much love and respect)
solange…cringe.
and joaquin pheonix. i don’t care if it’s all a stunt. it lacks the meta-comedy genius of kaufman and, therefore, makes him truly fug–both on the inside and the out.
OK, here are mine, in order:
1. Shannen Doherty. (Seriously: brush your hair, wear a dress that fits, and stop painting on the make-up like Madam.)
2. Tilda Swinton. (You are a brillant actress and a beautiful woman. Must everything be a satin sack?)
3. Posh/Victoria Becks (Who knew haute couture could look so painful and unhappy?)
4. Madonna (from the green feather-dress thing to the nutcracking muscle costume to the insane “bandage” photo shoot, I am totally LOVING your mid-life crisis.)
5. Lisa Rinna (I’ve seen your vagina…and when I can say that both lips are just as plastic…)
6. Mickey Rourke (nothing says 1970s K-Mart manager in The Bronx like what he wore to the Oscars.)
7. Sarah Jessica Parker (let’s not even get into “the hat” or “the shoes.” When a woman in her mid-forties insists on dressing like a 9-year old having a Bibbity-Bobbity-Boo makeover at Disney World, there’s something very, VERY wrong.)
8. Rumer Willis (because you know she thinks she’s hot like her mother, and yet, she really looks like Bruce Willis in drag.)
9. Bai Ling (she improved this year, and while she’s still off-her-nut, I have to give her props for fugging with more grace? Seriously: even the orange gown picture at the top of this post is much, much better than ANYTHING from her past.)
10. The Special Achievement Award for Sharon Stone. Here’s why: most of these folks just look horrid in their clothes. Sharon Stone achieves that rare balance of looking utterly fantastic while also looking utterly insane, utterly fug. Her “you can see my nipples” dress completely encapsulates this rare and awesome quality.

Bummer, I only just caught that bit about the Peldons not really beeing eligible.
Fair enough, they really have been painfully absent.
Shauna Sand and her lucite heels, then.
I would agree with the Phoebe Price nomination if she had ever done anything BESIDES fug. I mean, don’t you have to have some sort of other career besides showing up places looking like a$$?

My personal feeling about Bai is that she should sit this one out, not that I think she is unbeatable but she’s had her moment and perhaps this could be a “pass the torch” kind of thing.
Also, I recommend a special “douch bracket” for the men. They can include Spencer, Phoenix, Philip Seymore Hoffman and the Jonas Brothers.

Aubrey O’Day (twice, please!)
Lindsay Lohan absolutely.
Bai Ling is obvious but see Solange, above.
Angelina Jolie, especially for thinking she’s above it all.
Victoria Beckham
Phillip Seymour Hoffman deserves an award, perhaps a special one just for him, for the Oscars cap.
I love Swinton…she’s not so much a fug as pop art!
Drunkface McCord
Shenae Grimes
Taylor Momsen – OMG, the hair! the makeup! The sourface!
Micha Barton
I nominate – in no particular order:
Shenae Grimes
Mischa Barton
Katie Perry
Lady Gaga
Amy Winehouse
Tara Reid
Evan Rachel Wood – evn though she’s looking a bit more human now
Maggie Gyllenhaal
Mena Suvari
And shouldn’t we just go ahead and give the award for men to Joaquin Phoenix? Does anybody really look more fug than him?
Along with many of the above fine competitors, I’d like to add Rumor Willis.
Thank you ladies for the second ( i hope annual) March Madness!! can’t. wait!
I’ve got two kind of under-the-radar nominations here: Amy Adams (although I love her) and Kristen Stewart (I like her too actually).
I just want to see double A looking fierce some day. Her dresses are always too fussy or something. I can’t really see her winning, but I thought I should bring something new to the table.
Kristen Stewart looks good when she’s in jeans, but her red-carpet looks are terrible in my opinion.
Dudes have SUCH an easier time. I mean, Mickey Rourke has a real shot, but there’s got to be some others…. Actually, yes. Jared Leto. Just for trying to impersonate Kurt Cobain at a fashion show. Gross.
I know Joquin has been rocking the same crazy, but it’s a STRONG crazy. It’s far worse than over tanning or manorexia. Can you include that Letterman appearance as a fug entry?
How about the hideous woman that is married to the hideous Bruce Jenner and mother to the hideous multiple children who are famous for having big asses. The woman wouldn’t know an age appropriate outfit if she knew her real age.
fuggliest dressing couples: Rachel Bilson and Hayden Christensen (for the win), Lindsay Lohan and Sam Ronson, Angelina and Brad, Evan Rachel Wood and Marilyn Manson (even though they just broke up recently, i think they were fugging up fashion for most of last year), Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake, Assica Simpson and Pete Wince, Beyonce and Solange
girls:
Alice Dellal
Katie Price/Jordan
Bai Ling
Aubrey ODay
Lisa Rhinna (I don’t even know who she is but she needs help)
Phoebe Price
Paula Abdul
Lilo
Mischa Barton
boys:
Pete Doherty and interchangeable Blake Fielder Civil
Mickey Rourke
Perez Hilton
hybrid:
Speidi
I <3 SWINTON
Most of these have been said, but here they are again with reasons for some (some don’t even need explanation:
Beyonce and the lesser-known Knowles
Aubrey O’Day – she seems a little like this year’s Phoebe Price, though I think it’s impossible for anyone to out-Phoebe Price Phoebe Price
Katy Perry for sure
Taylor Momsen representing Gossip Girl – the others have occasional gaffes, but Taylor deserves a seeding for The Hair alone
SJP
Paris of course – she’ll be in the Fug Madness tournament til she’s 80
Carrie Underwood
Miley Cyrus
SWINTON
Phillip Seymour Hoffman solely on the basis of his Oscar hat transgression
Posh
Shenae Grimes and her castmate Drunkface
Agreed with an earlier nom of Robert Pattinson for the men – dude needs a shower and a little sun
GOOP founder, Gwyneth Paltrow
Nicole Kidman (please stop botoxing yourself to kingdom come and bring back the red hair!)
I’m undecided on Joaquin Phoenix – either it’s a gimmick or he’s seriously cracked up. In the first case I’m inclined not to acknowledge the schtick, in the second it would seem to fall under the purview of the Britney Law.
Peaches Geldof for the terror she has unleashed on us in NYC
You could probably throw in her sister Pixie
I’m thinking the Momsen should be seeded somewhere in top 5 of one bracket — she might even merit a 1 seed.
Katy Perry should also probably get a 1 seed.
Underwood and Cyrus should for sure get top 5 seeds, though they’ve hit it right enough times to take them out of contention for a 1 seed.
GaGa is gonna be tough to beat ya’ll…
SWINTON for the win!!! (Yes, it deserves *3* exclamation points)
Having wasted my entire Monday morning doing “research” (i.e. going through the last year’s worth of posts and then writing this really long thing about them) I feel like I have a pretty good handle on things! Allow me to be the John Madden of fug for a minute, if you will:
If you take a look at the ’08-’09 fashion season in the archives, one woman emerges as the fugee to beat:
Mischa Barton – fugged every month for the past year but for a brief pause in November-December. And man is she a deserving contender. Reading the nominations this weekend I was all: Mischa? Really? But if you take a look at her body of work from this past year, it becomes crystal. Mischa in ’09? Victory in our time!
Other repeat (and repeat and repeat) offenders according to the archives:
LiLo, Gwyneth, Mary-Kate Olson (y’all, this was the year of the fur headband and kaftan, y’all!), ScarJo, Madge, Katie Holmes (The pegged pants! All summer long!), Ashley Tisdale, Maggie Gyllenhaal (that fur vest!) Sienna (may I call to mind her singing-and-swinging-and-getting-Merry-like-Christmas fringed dress-thing over leggings?), Lily Allen and Katy Perry, natch. Oh, and Anne Hathaway appeared often in the past year but, to be fair, most of her appearances were a Fug-or-Fab AND it was a tough year, so I vote to giver her a pass.
Offenders you would think deserve to be top on the list, but arguably didn’t really shine in ’08-’09 include the 90210 girls (the show didn’t premiere until August, giving them only half a year to really fug it up), and Taylor Momsen, whose heinous haircut didn’t molt into existence until fall and so, really, Little Jenny *also* spent a full half the season on the bench. I would accept the argument that, given their short season, these kids really pulled ahead and deserve some recognition, but I say better luck next year!
Also! Disagreement time: Solange barely shows up anywhere wearing an aviary until late this fall, and secondly has only appeared on the site exactly a dozen times (one pre-season anyway, so it doesn’t count!), giving her a barely better fug turnout for the year than, say, Madonna (surprising, I know!). She’s no Mischa, is what I’m saying.
I also nominate SJP and the Zell for lifetime achievement awards. Seriously. They were some of the first to be fugged on this site way back in aught-four, and last year was a banner year of fuggery for both. Some people never learn!
The new Phoebe Price? Lady Victoria Hervey. Who are you? Why are you in public wearing a shower curtain?
Can we exclude the following: the Hiltons, the original Phoebe Price (i.e. Phoebe Price), Aubrey O’Day, PCDs, and any cast member of the Hills. Old news, all.
And lastly: MVP = Erin Wasson. Not only did she proudly admit to admiring the homeless on Venice Beach for their sartorial skillz (uh, equally ugly in practice as it is offensive in sentiment, Erin!), but she has also received props as a true “original” for that bleached bell-bottom/ratty fur coat ensemble she was sporting during fashion week in NY. Horr-eeb-lay!
And please add Janice Dickinson and Jessica Biel. Although they are two TOTALLY different versions of fug!!
No, not Swinton. She’s a great looking, unusual person who wears unusual clothing – with panache. Maybe you should have a separate, extra-Fug category for people like her and Bjork. A special achievement award or something. They’re not just clueless, skanky starlets, of all ages, who, in their eagerness to show how “great” they look consistently choose clothing so small it must be hard to move or sit down in them.
Sofia Loren -that heinous Oscar dress alone makes her worthy
Anton Kutchner
Angelina Jolie – that bod and those looks are wasted on her
Angelina Jolie for being boring!
My nominations…
Katie Holmes (although I don’t think it is her fault, she has obviously lost brain control since she married the tom-bot, does she get special reprieve like b spears?)
JLo (Just because she leaves Max and Emme home, doesn’t mean she has to bring out the other twins to reminds us)
Joaquin Phoenix
Paula Abdul (CRAZY)
Denise Richards (Its not complicated, check a mirror before you leave the house)
La Lohan (One more time, LEGGINGS ARE NOT PANTS! And what was up with that brown diper thing back in Jan???)
Aubrey O’Day, and her dog (Maybe the dog should get a reprieve because it doesn’t have thumbs, but there is no excuse for her)
Spedi (Actually I take this one back, as the both of them will actually campaign for this award. This will mean unnecessary photo shoots at Wal-Mart, and Arby’s just to solidify their number one seed. I wouldn’t put America though that)
Scar Jo (So pretty and dresses so awful)
Solange and Beyonce Knowles (or maybe just thier mother? Seriously, there comes a time in a young girls life where you just have to stop letting your mom dress you. Look, just because you have to pretend to like the ugly shirt that she picked out just so she will buy the rest of the cool clothes that you chose yourself, you never have to wear said ugly shirt out in public! And then when you are old enough to buy your own clothes, you can shove it all in her face, like “HA MOM! I get to wear what I WANT! And you have no opinion!” Wow, now I have all kinds of Jr. High flashbacks! I need a Diet Coke and a shopping spree)
-Solange. The black, feathered, record-looking-ornament-festooned frock. A veritable Christmas tree of fugness.
-Chloe Sevigny, because I really, really don’t like her style. Really. And everything she wears she wears with a smugness that seems to scream, “I am a fashionista.” Wearing a long t-shirt with an 80′s tie to it does not an evening dress make.
-Kate Bosworth, the one in Superman Returns who also dated Orlando Bloom (hot) who is always looking too thin and looks like she wraps herself in aluminum foil as a dress and calls it modern. Too many Kates in Hollywood, and my mind is numb.
-Jessica Biel. Because she’s still good-looking underneath all her poor choices (that long, eighties-esque black gown in the summer, her Oscar dress and Oscar hair, etc), I want her to squirm a bit for not trying.
-Katie Holmes, for trying to pull a C. Sevigny on us all by using cheap-looking but overly expensive clothes in an attempt to jockey for a position as a fashion icon during her many walks to rehearsal in NYC. Her life may be empty outside of her adorable looking child, but I will not allow her to fill those gaps with poor clothing choices that obviously took her a lot of time to figure out. Also, the mom hair.
-Hayden Panetierre, because with her hair and makeup and lack of leg she looks rather older than her 10-years-older-ex-boyfriend, Milo Ventimiglia (who, by the way, was mean to his ex-girlfriend of many years, Alexis Bledel, and who doesn’t cherish and want to protect Ms. Rory Gilmore?). At least Hayden figured out to get rid of Milo, if not her style.
Bai Ling, because she is enchanting in her extremes.
-SWINTON, because she is also enchanting in her extremes. She cannot win, but she must compete.
-Kirsten Dunst, because like Ms. Biel she could look so much better with a bit of effort. We pay our celebrities lifestyles, so let us live the dream of glamour by looking like it!
-Phoebe Price, because girl is frightening.
-Paris Hilton, because she is a cancer in the minds of all Americans, nay, all world citizens with any access to major media outlets.
-Lady Gag-me-now, aka Lady Gaga, because I cannot support a lady without pants. She undercuts the very value of our gender.
-Clay Aiken, because he just doesn’t look good, and a man should be included in the madness.
Marilyn Manson, because he frightens me more than any horror film ever could.
-Evan Rachel Wood, because while sometimes timeless, other times she…looks just like the girlfriend of Marilyn Manson. Which is scary.
-Amanda Bynes. She needs an intervention, as all her hems must be lengthened.
Lisa Rinna for trying to make the vag-thigh crease the new cleavage. And good god, HER FACE!
Aubrey O’Day has got to be in there too. She’s ick town.
Janice Dickinson – are you going to have a Donatella Versace bracket?
Mariah Carey.
Oh yay! I get a vote! First and foremost Angelina Jolie, because she seems snooty and because she can’t find a dress that doesn’t look like a sad sack.
Michelle Obama- I just don’t like the inauguration dress AND I’m tired of looking at her arms.
Madonna- she needs to gain some weight and get a better stylist.
Carrie Underwood- the after Oscar’s party dress made her look way old and I’m just so over her.
M.I.A. her outfit to the Grammy’s was it, was hideous.
Maggie Gyllenhall- poor gal, she can’t outrun the homelyness of her outfits.
Amy Winehouse- she just needs to put her weight back on and divorce the creap that will take off the years she’s put on.
Lisa Rinna- she herself talked about her facework, to me it’s hard to see the outfit when you’re grossly enthralled by her face.
Rumor Willis- she should get some lessons on how to dress from her mom. Her mom did learn the hardway herself, but she learned.
Beyonce- because I’m over her too.
Lindsey Lohan- for all the slack she gets, I feel for her, I’m putting her here because she has lost so much weight and I think it’s the pressure from the public.
Nicole Kidman- she looks so awesome in color and she’s killing us with the pale outfits and the pale hair. Bring back the redhead!
Kelly Ripa- because I’m tired of looking at her sternum.
Samantha Ronsem (?)- because she continues to dress in dingy clothes and they’re so unbecoming.
Manwise-
Joaquin Phoenix- because he’s rediculous. But hey at least he’s happy.
Christian Suriano- he may be a winner on the runway, but he needs to look in the mirror more often before he goes out in public.
Brad Pitt- the mustache- enough said.
1) Katy Perry
Bai Ling (although I love her)
2) Solange
3) Brad Pitt’s mustache
4) Katie Holmes (for single handedly bringing back pegged jeans)
5) Joaquin Phoenix’s beard
6) Brett Michaels’ extensions
7) Mischa Barton
9) Lady Gaga
10) SWINTON should get an honorable mention.
SWINTON! (Look out, Bai, she’s bringing the HEAT!!)
Solange (Coming in strong as well!)
Bai Ling
Britney Spears (She’s available now people!)
Katy Perry
Mischa Barton
Lady Gaga
Victoria Beckham,
Katy Perry,
Lady Gaga,
Lily Allen,
Agyness Deyn,
Taylor Momsen,
Mariah Carey,
Sharon Stone,
Kanye West,
Bai Ling,
Tilda Swinton,
Cate Blanchett,
MIA,
Jessica Simpson,
Scarlett Johansen,
Mickey Rourke,
Miley Cyrus,
Misha Barton,

Beyonce,
Shanae Grimes,
Jared Leto,
Jordan Price,
Aubrey O’Day,
Paula Abdrool,
Rumer Willis,
Lisa Rinna,
Janet Jackson
Helena Bonham Carter
Tara Reid
Marc Jacobs
In the men’s division
Devendra Banhart (I believe he was famous for about 7 minutes whilst dating Natalie Portman)
OOOO and Bret Michaels, that’s a good one!
Can Beyonce and Sasha Fierce be split? I feel like they both need representation in the bracket.
Ed Westwick (as Chuck Bass)
Phoebe Price
Evan Rachel Wood
SWINTON
Taylor Momsen
Whitney Port
Sharon Stone (because she’s crazy and it’s like she KNOWS it)
Swinton – It will be a travesty if she doesn’t at least make it to the last few rounds.
Spencer & Heidi- They’re one unit.
M.I.A. for whatever that thing was she had on at the Grammy’s.
-Lindsay Lohan for sure, with special bonus points for planning to release her own spray tan! Her fug is actually infectious!
-Ali Lohan! I haven’t seen her mentioned yet, which is a horrendous oversight!
-Solange
-Beyonce
-Bret Michaels (ewwww)
-Aubrey O’Day, for achievements in fug both in and out of clothing!
-Madonna
I have mixed feelings about including people like Amy Winehouse on the list. On the one hand, yes, her qualifications are undeniable, but on the other hand, she’s not actually trying. Wandering around the streets looking confused while wearing something awful = crazy. Swanning around LA because you mistakenly believe you look fabulous = the true spirit of fug.
Oh, and take Samantha Ronson off the list of contenders. Haggard does not equal fug. Her outfits are fairly inoffensive and boring. I take exception to the hat, but I don’t think the hat is enough fug to make it to the big-time.
I nominate:
1. SWINTON!
2. Miley Cyrus
3. Aubrey O’Day
4. Katy Perry
5. Solonge
6. Beyonce
7. Katie Price/Jordan or whatever she’s calling herself these days
8. Madonna
9. Sarah Jessica Parker
10. Mischa Barton
Tilda Swinton
Katy Perry
Katie Holmes
‘Katie Price’
As the Academy Awards honor not only the actors but also the screenwriters, so too should we honor both the wearer of the garment and the creator of the garment.
Therefore, I hereby nominate BEYONCE KNOWLES and creator of all things bedazzled and asstacky, TINA KNOWLES. In addition, I believe younger daughter SOLANGE should be added as well, since some of her catastrophes surely must have been whipped up at 3 AM by her mom drunkenly wielding a glue gun and a bucket of rhinestones.
Aubrey O’Day – hot mess
Olsen Twins (definitely both of them)
Phoebe Price
Kanye West
Jared Leto
Mischa Barton
Miley Cyrus
Britney Spears (if she’s eligible)
Mariah Carey
Amy winehouse (unless she’s considered sad smut)
Paula Abdul
Paris Hilton
Lindsay Lohan and Ali Lohan
Samantha Ronson
Heidi Montag
Lady Gaga
Pete Wentz (wanker)
Taylor Momsen
The JONAS brothers!!!! (seriously!)
Jessica Simpson
Pamela Anderson (hot pantless mess number 2)
Carrie Underwood (wacky tacky country)
Any Kardashian
Katie Price
I am for sure copying others, but for the love of fug:
PADMA LAKSHMI
how could one so beautiful always look so fugged up?
Katy Perry
Madonna
SWINTON
That kid who always wears the hat and bad facial hair…Ryan Cabrerra?
Miley Cyrus
Taylor Momsen
Speidy (Spence and Heidi)
Swinton
Kim Stewart (her leggings make my eyes hurt)
Lisa Rinna
Phillip Seymour Hoffman
Solange
Dannity Kane and the Pussycat Dolls should be paired head to head to see which is actually worse. They’re both awful.
Ashton Kutcher
Aubrey O’Day
Amber Rose (She’s Kayne’s new girl but from what I’ve seen lately, she could give some of the regulars a run for the title)
Lisa Rinna
Perez Hilton
Mickey Rourke
taylor momsen and the remaining entire cast of gossip girl on set…in real life they don’t typically suck except her.
SWINTON!!!!
SWINTON
Taylor Momsen
Bai Ling
Jessica Biel
Natalie Basingthwaight. She’s the host of Australian SYTYCD and each week her outfit is more horrendous than the next – i’ve tried to find pics for you guys before but am not skilled in this department.
jenifer morrison
SWINTON
Katy Perry
Rumer Willis
Any or all of the Kardashians
Amy Winehouse
Mischa Barton
Olsen twins
Bai Ling should receive an automatic bid to defend her title
Donatella Versace
Whitney Port
Tyra Banks
Lindsay Lohan
Lisa Rinna
I’m blanking on men. These are off of the top of my head:
Bret Michaels
Jay Manuel vs. Karl Lagerfeld in a faceoff to determine who is more orange
Amber Rose, that girl is FUG!
Oh, after reading one of the earliest comments, I second the nomination for Rosa DeLauro. She looks like a grasshopper in the first picture.
Taylor Momsen
Lisa Rinna
Katie Holmes
SWINTON
Kim Kardashian
Nicole Kidman
Beyonce
Katy Perry
SOLANGE (1)
Aubrey O’Day (3)
Sharon Stone (6)
Whitney Port (10)
Evan Rachel Wood (12)
Fug Five:
Katy Perry
Lisa Rinna
Solange Knowles
Tilda Swinton
Taylor Momsen
I kind of just want to give it to Swinton now, if only so that the award, dubious though it may be, can at least go to someone awesome, badass and talented in addition to sartorially challenged. I hate to reward the other 4 with anything. Well, I wouldn’t mind awarding Momsen with a trip to my hair stylist… and an acting coach. Never mind, Fug ‘em all!
though the 2009 awards are for offenses committed in the last 12 months only, i agree that there must be lifetime achievement awards -named after liza manelli. this will allow us to appreiciate the new and the old.
my nom for first manelli is sjp. she has taught us so much about fug. let us pay homage.
noms for the next bai ling
BAI LING!
taylor momsen
the swinton
solange
pcd vs danity kane
ms o’day solo
evan rachel wood
sharon stone
can we have a separate mini pool for men?because several deserve inclusion but they can hardly be expected to prevail in such a field of fuglicious ladies.
Gwyneth GOOP! Paltrow
Aubrey O’Day
Paris Hilton
SJP
Posh
Beyonce and Solange
Cate Blanchett
I can’t wait for the Madness to begin.
it would be a travesty were this contest to overlook maria sharapova. august 2008. the brown ‘strapless’ dress with the flesh-colored collar. oh, yeah, and the BATSHIT FUCKING CRAZY RANDO BLACK SLEEVE.
Oh my…
Lilly Allen (weird Baby clothes)
Solange (war paint in the face?)
Mickey Roukey (shiny, shiny suits)
Swinton (there is nothing to explain)
SJP (not only for the boobs)
Agnes Deyn (she is so hard TRYING to be edgy)
The little rap lady in the pregnancy football dress (I’m to lazy to look her up but I’m sure she was mentioned about 100 times)
Jordan/Katie Price (pink is not only a color)
Katie Holmes (for her roll-up-jeans-crimes)
The Redhead who does nothing but standing around in front of the Ivy (I’ve read her name x times in another certain d-lister blog but still: it just escaped me – must be self preservation)
Miascha Barton (at least she stays relevant this way)
I can’t wait for it to start!!
of course Bai Ling… I didn’t even mention her in my post before… (you really should all watch the movie “Southland Tales” she is so Bai in this film!
Amy Adams…. I realize she’s cute… and that’s probably why she’s not being mentioned much. But seriously… that one premier she went to the rat’s nest and the scary goth look. We have to acknowledge it.

SWINTON
SWINTON
SWINTON
SWINTON IS THE QUEEN OF ALL FUG. the rest are but pawns in her quest for fug domination.
i’m in awe of her commitment to fug’ness.
I think SWINTON, Solange, and Lady GaGa deserve top seeds. Aubrey O’Day and Bai Ling can fight it out for the fourth one.
I don’t want to give Beyonce any kind of a status, so although she can be quite fugly, I will not nominate her. I also think those who vote for Swinton better be doing to out of love and respect because she is AWESOME!!
Therefore, I vote for Lindsay Lohan, Phoebe Price and Carrie Underwood. And if Swinton wins in a we praise you for being so fugly, but so awe inspiring.
SWINTON and Lisa Rinna
POSH! SWINTON!
All others need not apply.
I’m echoing many others here but…
SWINTON
Joaquin Phoenix
Lisa Rinna
Taylor Momson
Misha Barfug
Mickey Rourke
Oh my God, that southwestern rainbow dress just ended the game before it started: SWINTON now, SWINTON forever.
She’s like Bai Ling plus a 12-piece bucket of talent. I have loved her since Orlando and LOVE that she has graduated to one name status.
SWINTON
Rumor Willis
Beyonce
Amy Winehouse
Debra Messing
Brad Pitt
Kim Kardashian
Lindsay Lohan
Mariah Carey
Mischa Barton
Madonna
SJP
V. Beckham
Sharon Stone
Meryl Streep
Courtney Love
Minnie Driver
Johnny Depp
PS Hoffman
Maggie Gyllenhall
Heidi Klum
Ophah Winfrey
Hillary Clinton
Ashton Kutcher
And, please? Could you give us a definition of FUG? There was much hostility between people voting according to differing philosophies of FUG last year. There were the I-seriously- tried-hard-to-look good/sexy/appropriate-and-failed-miserably camp (the truly fugly, in my opinion), and the I-want-attention-so-badly-that-I’m knowingly dressing-like-an-asshat-in-this-costume (sometimes horrifying, yes, but missing the true essense of fug; again, in my opinion). Although it’s sometimes difficult to tell the difference. A little clarity would help, otherwise the prize will go to the most outrageous costumery, again. Causing my head to explode. Again. And by the way, I love you guys.
I’m echoing many others here but…
SWINTON
Joaquin Phoenix
Lisa Rinna
Taylor Momson
Misha Barfug
Mickey Rourke
Lilo, Chloe Sevigny, and any other celeb who launches a clothing item or line, and should clearly know better but they DON’T. How dare they set a fugly example for ignorant trend followers.
Ooh, I’d like to second the nomination for CLAY AIKEN. The clothes/hair/orange-coloured skin are just off…
Lindsay Lohan
Paris Hilton
Victoria Beckham
Is it possible for leggings to get their own nomination?
Y’know what? I think SWINTON is beyond fug. She’s gone through it and out the other side. She is the black hole, the parallel universe, the wormhole of fug, and I love her madly for it. She is the fug stars against which all else looks insignificant. Only SWINTON has had an entire catwalk show devoted to her style with models all made up to look like her.
And nice call on the Peaches Geldof, previous poster. Her sulky rhinestone-sweatband bedecked head causes hives of fug every time I’m forced to see a picture of it.
I can’t in good conscience put in a vote for SWINTON. Yes, most of her clothes are fugly, but she’s at least COVERED! (although, that rainbow dress today? If it was more like a 60′s shift dress with that design minus the weird overlay, I think it would be really cute.) With that said, here’s my list:
Bai Ling
Solange
Gwyneth Paltrow
“The girl whose name I have forgotten, but she wore that black see-thru dress that basically proved she has ZERO body hair. Anywhere.”
Angelina Jolie, only because black is the only color she ever wears.
Kim Kardashian
Joaquin Phoenix, only because of the hideous facial hair.
Robert Pattinson (he always looks SO greasy and skeevy to me)
I must add my voice to the choir celestial whose music is the fug of the world …
SWINTON
I must personally throw in another vote for Evan Rachel Wood, because no one that young and genetically gifted should a) dress like the undead and b) EVEN OWN THAT MUCH MAKE-UP.
Katy Perry
Britney Spears
Oksana Baiul
Courtney Love
Brigette Nielsen
Lindsay Lohan
Joaquin Phoenix
Paula Abdul
Lisa Rinna
Mischa Barton
Phoebe Price
Taylor Momsen
Paris Hilton
Winona Ryder
1) Evan Rachael Wood – the girl’s trying to clone her boyf’s ex and FAILING – who needs that much makeup?
2) Victoria Beckham – she’s Bai Ling with a bigger bank balance – be afraid. This year is her year!
3) Jordan – do I need to explain?
For the boys – check out Cristiano Ronaldo – Manchester United’s one-man Miami Vice tribute, and Roger Federer, because he looks like his mum dresses him.
One cannot neglect La Lohan. One Word: Leggings.
I love Tilda Swinton. She’s a category of her own.
In terms of fug, my nominees include:
Evan Rachel Wood – for her terrifying cosmetic downfall; it’s like a graphic gothic novel where the maiden in distress is also her own make-up persecutor and there’s satan in the background (M. Manson) and an almost-dead-first-wife-like character (D. von Teese); in short, for this odd re-enactment of “Rebecca” that beats the musical adaptation;
Courtney Love – inflated lips of doom and clothing apocalypse;
Sharon Stone – for unnecessary anatomy lessons;
likewise, Katie Price and Lady GaGa – for celebrity nudism;
Victoria Beckham and her murderous shoes;
Beyonce and Solange – the fishtail dresses and feathers, respectively;
Aubrey O’Day, Paris Hilton, Pussycat Dolls – for being sartorially desperate.
Swinton
Solange
Kanye West
SwintonswintonSWINTOOON!!
..and also Paris Hilton, Mischa Barton, and Victoria Beckham.
..and pretty much everyone else that has been nominated.
Dude, after the most recent post of Diane Kruger…she wins.
Especially because in my heart, I KNOW she’s the one responsible for making Pacey wear those freaking ridiculous ascots.
Oh, I was going to add another guy, but saw a couple of other people have also nominated him: Marc Anthony. Dude always looks like he’s just going to keel over and die right where he is. That’s not a good look for anyone…
Even though you’ve only done one outfits of hers this year, I think Sarah Brightman deserves a nomination simply for the complete horror of it. She looked like stripper Barbie on a Mardi Gras float.
SJP. Cloven hooves – there’s no excuse.
1. Jessica Biel- yikes
2. Aubrey ODay- skank-tastic
3. Phoebe Price- Dress Barn called…
4. Courtney Love- the pills! the PILLS!
5. Amy Winehouse- the crack-odile hunter
6. Miley Cyrus- makes Britney look couture
Definitely include Swinton, Lohan, and Posh. Definitely.
In no particular order…
1) Mickey Rourke
Lady Gaga
2) Katy Perry
3) Angelina Jolie
4) Evan Rachel Wood (for 2008, anyway)
5) Jessica Simpson
6) Bai Ling (obviously)
7) Sarah Jessica Parker
9) Whichever Jonas Brother wore that suit that had a cloud of smoke screened onto it.
10) Miley Cyrus
Love, love, love your website! You and Lainey rock!!
The big contenders this year should be Solange, Beyonce, SJP, Katy Perry, Aubrey O’Day, JLoHew, Fergie and Taylor Momsen. And, since Britney is officially eligible, she certainly deserves a place.
I nominate:
Tilda Swinton
Lindsay Lohan
Solange Knowles
Mischa Barton
Bai Ling
Phoebe Price
Can’t wait!!! =)
Thanks!
Some/all of these have likely been nominated, but I can’t let my March Fug Madness go by without them:
Bjork!! (I don’t know where she’s been, but I can guarantee she’s been looking wacky)
Paula Abdul
Courtney Love
Miley Cyrus
Mickey Rourke
Sean Penn
Samantha Ronson
Katee Sackhoff (I love her, but she needs your help, she shows up places looking terrible and she’s so awesome)
Debra Messing
Matthew McConaughey (it may be hard to find him wearning anything other than shorts)
I love the idea of a senior bracket for age inappropriate fug.
May I nominate Ali “I want to fug like my sister” Lohan?
1. Katy Perry
2. Bai Ling
3. Tilda Swinton
4. Solange
5. Paris Hilton
6. Jessica Simpson
7. Mickey Rourke
A moment of silence, please, for the disappearance of Peldons in our fuggy world…perhaps we should honor their passings in a very solemn and respectful manner?
…Like an Honorary Peldon side-bracket?
I immediately nominate Hilary Duff and Ashley Tisdale. There may or may not be a Momsen in there as well.
First of all, put this box at the top of the page!
Yikes.
Secondly, you MUST include the Swinton. She has a great chance at displacing the Bai at top Fugger.
forgot to ask: why don’t you ever go after Bobby Trendy? Is he too obvious? I mean, you slice and dice Ms. Wintour and the occasional NY or UK socialite.
Noooo, not Bobby Trendy!!!
His whole point in dressing like that/showing up anywhere is to have people put him on websites and in gossip mags. He does nothing of any redeeming value. He’s the male Phoebe Price, and neither of them should be encouraged.
SWINDON for the win.
Drew Barrymore in her Golden Globes attire. She seems to nice and too young to be channeling Angie Dickinsons ’70′s look.
Joaquin Phoenix
Bai Ling- of course
Tilda Swinton
Matthew McConaughey-most of the time he looks like he might smell bad
Mischa Barton
Kate Bosworth, please!
oh and most definitely mischa,
tilda swinton
and GAH solange.
gah it just deleted my comment!!!
SJP
Beyonce
SWINTON

Kat(i)e Holmes. she knows what she did.
Hear, hear on the Dakota Fanning Teen Anti-Fug award nomination.
Jessica Simpson
Katie Holmes
OK, here’s my Top 10 Fug List. These folks worked hard all year long to earn the honor of a spot on this list:
1. The Olsen twins
2. Rachel Zoe
3. Mischa Barton
4. Debra Messing
5. Jessica Biel
6. Nicole Richie
7. Keira Knightley
8. Maggie Gyllenhaal
9. Anne Hathaway
10. Gwyneth Paltrow (let’s not forget that pink nightmare dress she wore a few mos. ago with the gigantic bow for starters)
And I am intentionally NOT including Swinton because her outfits are so crazy and so outlandish and from-another-planet that they almost come out to be rather artful and striking. It also seems to me that she puts a lot of thought and imagination into what she wears as opposed to just looking like a straight up mess like the Olsen twins.

Solange
SWINTON
Katie Holmes
Lindsay Lohan
1. Swinton. She’s amazing, but oh so fug.
2. Solange. Of course.
3. Katy Perry. How much attention does one woman need?
Chloe Sevigny!
I’m shocked at her poor showing in these comments. Although it was almost a year ago now, I think that “the horrors of Chloe Sevigny’s new collection for Opening Ceremony” should not be forgotten just because recently she’s almost been boring. Seriously, those images were the stuff of Sears catalogue nightmares.
Urgh:
1. Newcomer Lady Gaga, and
2. Katy Perry. Are either of them ever not wearing a costume?
3. Paris Hilton deserves a lifetime achievement award for Dressing Like a 12-Year Old. (A really under-parented 12-year old but between the pink pink pink and the fuzzy sparkly everything I think you know what I mean).
WOMEN (I was really trying for just 10 but that proved impossible):
-Bai Ling
-Katy Perry
-Scarlett Johansson
-LiLo Leggings
-Lisa Rinna!!!!!!!!!!@!111#@!
-mos def Ice T’s Missus, whatever her name is
-Jessica Biel
-poor poor Whoopi Goldberg
-Alice Dellal
-Angelina Jolie
-SJP for those effing camel shoes
-Patricia Arquette
-Madonna
-Katie Holmes
-Phoebe Price
-Tara Reid
-Evan Rachel Wood
-oh god Beyonce
-Blake Lively
-Gwyneth…oh no
-Whoever wore that crazy blue array of neckbraces/cupcake cups in June (filed under La Terremoto de Fugcorcon)
-Mischa
-M.I.A
-And I wasn’t going to nominate Paula Abdul, but then I recalled the dress with the top made of cotton balls or perhaps bunny tails
-Pussycat Dolls
-Lily Allen
-And I *would* say Swinton but I AM JUST TOO FASCINATED BY HER. No joke, everyday I just hope to see what she’s shown up in this time.
MEN:
-Joaquin Phoenix
-Phillip Seymour Hoffman
-Valentino
-Criss Angel
-K.FED
-and I just cannot nominate good old Mickey, for similar reasons I couldn’t nominate Swinton.
Is it wrong to admit that the promise of another Fug Madness was the thing to get me through this past year? Does that made me sad? If so, then boo-hoo!
1. Chloe Sevigny
2. The Knowles girls. They’ve GOTTA be a doubles match.
3. SWINTON! I love her, but the possibility of her v. Bai Ling is just too juicy!
4. Gwyneth Paltrow
5. Robert Pattison- sorry, we need boys on the list too. They don’t get a pass!
6. Mickey Rourke
7. Aubrey O’Day- God. The flowers!
8. Joaquin Phoenix
9. Kanye West
10. Bai Ling. Of course!
Shenae Grimes
Aubrey O’Day
Katy Perry
Blech blech blech.
Can Rod Blagojevich’s hair be considered?
So many fuggers, so little time. But it’s hard to argue against Sarah Jessica Parker.
Particlarly when she’s been sold and sold as “beautiful”, “sexy”, and, jaysus, a “fashionista”. A fall from a cliff is fuglier than a slip on a banana peel.
What tipped me over the edge was, of course, the camel boots because…okay, we all know what she looks like; I don’t need to say it. There’s a website that caters to that kind of smut.
I gather this is a competition for human beings. So, sorry, Tilda can’t play.
SWINTON
LiLo
Aubrey O’Day
Lady GaGa
Katy Perry
Potato Head aka Rumer Willis
there needs to be some serious consideration of blake lively. she’s someone who should be so right but is almost always so, so awkwardly wrong.
SWINTON for the win!!
My second, if unpopular, choice is Julianne Moore.
She’s beautiful, talented, and dresses well enough in the daytime. But I think there should be a special, lifetime achievement prize for never, never, EVER looking good in evening wear.
SWINTON!
If only every day could be a SWINTON day.
So many to choose from….
CoCo
Mischa Barton
Posh
Amy Winehouse
Swinton
Samantha Ronson
Aubrey O’Day
Joaquin Phoenix
Gwyneth Paltrow
Lily Allen
Sarah Jessica Parker
The Olsen Twins
Katie Holmes
Kate Cruise (Katie Holmes is LONG gone)
I agree with Marcia that it would be very helpful to define the “fug” at the onset of competition. This was an enormous source of frustration last Fug Madness.
I personally feel that people like Bobby Trendy have nothing to do with this. It’s those who actually think they look good (and are a gift to humanity) that deserve fugging… but obviously there are people here who totally disagree with me! If voters with diametrically differing viewpoints participate, the end result is less valid– too many votes go to compromise candidates who don’t epitomize either end of the fugging spectrum.
That said, I personally don’t think the issues below are what is being judged in fug madness, despite many posts here that seem to disagree.
-personal hygiene
-make-up
-talent/lack thereof
-personality/lack thereof
-hair style/color/cleanliness
-facial expression/botoxicity/plasticity
Is anyone else on the same page as I am? … am I all alone?
Isn’t GFY primarily about *fashion* choices?
Oldest Jonas needs to be in here.
And Heidi Klum. Just because you’re on a show about fashion doesn’t mean your clothes don’t stank.
Okay, gonna go out on a limb here… Guy Fieri, from Food Network. His shirts are the visual equivalent of your downstairs neighbors playing Eye of the Tiger on Rock Band at three am. And I am convinced his hair is made from plastic.
1. Madonna and her sinewy man-arms.
2. The Swinton
Katy Perry / Lady Gaga (stage costumes do not = regular clothes)
3. Beyonce and her continuously over-emphasised hourglass
4. Kate Bosworth (for her intergalactic-waitress dress alone.)
5. Dita Von Teese (I get it, I’m just so bored of it)
Ohhh my top 10 for this year would have to be:
Solange
Joaquin Phoenix
Katie Holmes
The Patented Tom Cruise Shoe Lifts
Reece Witherspoon – for channeling Alexis Dexter Colby Carrington all year at awards shows yet never pulling it off
Goldie Hawn
Jordan & Peter
Jodie Marsh
Jessica Biel
Carrie Underwood
Suggestions for special commemorative awards:
The Angelina Jolie Most Invaluable Player Award – for so much potenital yet so boring
Tilda Swinton Untouchable Fug Award – for a style that is beyong comprehension and beyond fugdom
Jennifer Aniston, Jessical Biel and Anne Hathaway for being simply so BORING!
Katy Perry, Lisa Rinna and the Pussycat Dolls for crimes against fashion
omg comments!!! yay
so much fug, so little time…in no order:
1. madonna
2. joaquin phoenix–for that beard alone and then for his “mockumentary”
3. katie holmes cruise
4 & 5. solange and her sister
6. lady gaga–just for tryin’ so hard and still failing…and not wearing pants!!!
7. lohan–not for leggings persay but for her attention whoring antics
9 & 10. brad & angie–you know they deserve this!!
11. rpattz simply for not showering/shampooing on a daily basis, then for owning only one pair of jeans, apparently.
and oh god, the brother jonai!!! christ, i mean, have you seen the foolishness they don?!
luvs the site
jesus–how could i forget jared fucking leto?? for his pants and new blond ‘do alone.
or mr. kanye “let me be great!!” west?? i wish his new girl could be a nominee, but maybe next year…
oh and posh spice, obviously.
swinton is a creature from another world therefore cannot be apart of this.
and katy perry will probably just cream herself if she gets a mention, imo.
In no particular order:
1. Kristen Stewart
2. Tilda Swinton
3. Britney Spears
4. Angelina Jolie
5. Mischa Barton
6. Jessica Biel
7. Kate Hudson
8. Katie Holmes
9. Katy Perry
10.Joachim Phoenix.
Love your site!!
Paris Hilton for that stupid smiley face yellow dress with black sequins — that earns her at least a number 10 seeding in my book.
And I totally agree with putting Lisa Rinna in a well-seeded spot, just for the trauma of seeing too much of her lady parts.
Can there be an all-men category? For the Jonas brothers, Mickey Rourke, and the chia-pet Joaquin Phoenix has sprouted on his face!
Katy Perry
Solange
Lady Gaga
Bai Ling
Aubrey O’Day
The Olsen Twins
I’m surprised more people haven’t listed Kristen Stewart and her greasy stoner hair
Speaking of greasy and likely on drugs Robert Pattison may need a nomination. He’s hot but he needs to consider showering with greater frequency.
Paris Hilton
Madonna
After that last bit of SWINFUG, is there really any further discussion needed? The Swinton is CLEARLY the queen of all Fugsters. Everyone else pales in the pale but glaring light of her fugginess.
THE WOMEN:
THE RAT ON TAYLOR MOMSEN’S HEAD!!
Katy Perry
Paris Hilton
Bai Ling (how can we not bring back the reigning Queen O’ Fug?)
Solange
Lohan (after all, she made celebrity-endorsed leggings a REALITY)
Katie Holmes
Britney Spears
SWINTON
Debra Messing
Kate Bosworth
Lily Allen
THE MEN
Joaquin Phoenix
I hate to do it…Brad Pitt’s ‘stache
Spencer
Sam Ronson…oh wait, that’s SamANTHA…
I have never seen Kristin Stewart look cute in her clothes. She is a hot mess and deserves to be fugged.
Pretty much everyone I wanted has been listed, but I have to throw in another vote for Joaquin Phoenix. He has been crazy lately, and it’s made all the more tragic by the fact that what’s underneath is so very pretty.
Aubrey O’Day – PLEASE
Solange!!!
OMG I’m so gald Fug Madness is back! Bless you girls (and intern George of course)
I nominate:
Solange
Katy Perry
Katie Holmes
Aubrey O’Day
Raven Symone
Mischa Barton
Lisa Rinna
Joaquin Pheonix
Mickey Rourke
last year’s champ Bai Ling and
SWINTON for the gold!
-Taylor Momsen (She’s a pretty girl, right? RIGHT? How does she always look so BAD?!?)
-SWINTON
-Mischa Barton
-Beyonce (for going all Scarlett O’Hara with the curtain dress)
-Amy Winehouse
-Julia Stiles
-J Simp
-J Biel
-Katie Holmes. Post-Joey Potter has totally let us down.
-Debra Messing, now that that leather dress is fresh in my mind
And, YEAH… Joaquin/Mickey for the boys.
Love this site. Never ever stop.
The Moore/Kutcher Clan! C’mon! Saggy tops, bad hats and great surgery.
Aubrey O’Day(HOT mess)
Posh (her shoes)
Mariah Carey seriously, how old is she (her real age!)
Katie-Jordan (she needs a get a clue)
Eva Longoria Parker (she’s had some bad moments)
KRISTIN STEWART (her hair is gross)
Kate Bosworth(someone slap her with a veggie burger with mayo)
Mickey Rourke (he use to be soooo delicious)
Aubrey O’Day
Katy Perry
Aubrey O’Day
Aubrey O’Day
…did I mention Aubrey O’Day?
this is GENUIS:
“The Angelina Jolie Most Invaluable Player Award”
done and done.
Jessica Biel

Oh also? Kate Hudson.
-Katie Holmes: young, beautiful, with all the money in the world and she dresses like a miserable 50 year old housewife who has given up on herself and invests everything in her daughter. Tragic.
-Agyness Deyn: why she is this year’s “it” model, I cannot fathom. Her look has been done. By men. Like Andy Warhol and all the first MTV VJs.
-Mary Kate Olsen: Wearing every trend of tomorrow does not equal pretty.
-Britney Spears: Yes, she has regained her amazing figure (and hopefully her sanity), but her /fashion/ sense is still disasterous. The majority of the time she is still photographed in an ill-fitting dirty outfits looking like she just rolled out of bed and added whatever lingerie was on the floor next to her. Except at this year’s Christmas tree lighting where she had perfect hair and that gorgeous coat.
-Lindsay Lohan: See Britney Spears above minus the amazing figure, sanity, and beautiful coat at Christmas.
Is it too easy to fug celebrities who just dress completely skankily? Aubrey O’Day, all the Hogans, Katie Price, Pamela Anderson, etc?
Also, I agree with several of the posters who find it hard to fug those who are going for a costume/shock effect rather than seeming to attempt fashion and fugging it up (Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, etc).
Let the March Fug Madness begin!
Some I haven’t seen mentioned:
Ali Lohan
Jodie Marsh
Fantasia
Pam Anderson
Anna Paquin
Estelle
My top seeds:
Solange
Katy Perry
Evan Rachel Wood
SJP
SWINTON.
I have her taking the gold.
Do you win gold in basketball?
Solange
Taylor Momsen
Aubrey O’Day
Mickey Rourke
Philip Seymour Hoffman
Jessica Biel
Joaquin Phoenix
Lisa Rinna
Lindsay Lohan
Kate Hudson
Amanda Bynes
Scarlett Johansson
Chloe Sevigny, not only for herself, but for the awful line she “designed” for Opening Ceremony.
First and foremost, SWINTON. the woman is a living legend to fug wannabes ’round the world.
Most of the obvious have been said, but I’d like to throw another vote or ten in the following directions..
1. Kristen Stewart–although relatively new to the spotlight, no excuse for the grease-ball hair.
2. Debra Messing. love her. she just misses too much of the time.
3. Scar-Jo
4. Lohan.
5. Taylor Momsen/THE HAIRCUT.
6. GRIMES!!!
7. Jennifer Aniston for being absurdly boring.
8. gwyneth.
9. lisa rinna for not venturing beyond animal & faux tan.
10. Renee Zellweger. no one should wear carolina herrara allll the time. also, i wish shed quit pouting & squinting.
Sarah Jessica Parker
Jessica Biel
Beyonce
Jessica Simpson
Taylor Momsen
Jessica Alba
MK + Ashley Olsen
Katie Holmes
Lindsay Lohan
Wait – didn’t eligibility for Fug Madness 2009 end on February 28th? So does that mean that neither Debra Messing’s leather apron nor SWINTON’S amazing rainbow dress can be considered?! OH NOES!!
I did some research into the GFY archives for 2008 and the first two months of 2009 and came up with a list of potential top seeds. According to my EXTREMELY scientific* scoring system – based on the number of times each person was fugged, with extra points for CRAZY fug – here are the top contenders:
Mischa Barton (21 fug points! she could! go! ALL! THE! WAY!!)
Paris Hilton (18)
Lindsay Lohan (16)
Phoebe Price (16)
Katy Perry (15)
Aubrey O’Day (13)
Taylor Momsen (12)
Gwyneth Paltrow (12)
Solange (11)
Bai Ling (11)
Lisa Rinna (10)
Madonna (9) [okay, I'm not sure if Madonna is eligible for the tournament, since she has her own bracket - but she should be! she's been seriously fugging it up this year!]
Beyonce (9)
Katie Holmes (9)
Posh (8)
Mary-Kate Olsen (8)
7 points: SWINTON, SJP, Kate Bosworth, Carrie Underwood, Lily Allen
6 points: Maggie Gyllenhaal, Chloe Sevigny, Paula Abdul, Kim Kardashian, Fergie, J.Simp., Eva Longoria Parker, Whitney Port, Ashley Tisdale, Drunkface McCord
I know – it’s shocking that some of the people in that last group would score so low! But hey – it’s SCIENCE*!
Of course, many fugly favorites are left out according to my system, so it’s not perfect. I’m just saying, SCIENTIFICALLY speaking*, those are the most frequent and/or most extreme fuggees.
*Note: Not really. I’m not that good at science.
1. katy perry
2. solange
3. madonna (those arms and legs are shown off toooo much!)
4. katy perry
5. jessica biel (why must she be always be boring in beige?)
6. lisa rinna (ever changing accessorized face needs to be noted)
7.agyness deyn (she gets away with too much!)
8. kanye west
9. aubrey o day
10. gweneth paltrow (she makes me sad every time, wasting all that beauty)
11.kristen stewart…be cute for once, your young for goodness sake!
no, no, no to bai ling. She loves it too much. I did not even know who she was until I became a fug girl.
The Female Fugs:
“The TWEEN team”: Shenae Grimes, AnnaLynne McCord, Vannessa Hudgens, Taylor Momsen, Blake Lively and Miley Cyrus
The Male Fugs:
Nick Nolte
Mickey Rourke
K-Fed
Kanye West
Let the games begin!
The Olsen twins.
Although it does seem that SWINTON is going to be the ultimate winner (or would that be loser?), I have to put Kristen Stewart’s name in. Perhaps its a Twilight thing, but the greasy hair is awful. Plus looking stoned constantly is not a way to go to a premiere or make it seem like you care at all.
Jessica Biel
Jordan/Katie Price
Kate Hudson
Joaquin Phoenix
The Olsen twins
Paris Hilton
Special Comment for Tilda Swinton – Sooo Fugly but always so interesting
1. La Lohan in her pantsless glory.
2. Aubrey O’Day for all over tackiness and mild animal cruelty.
3. Taylor “angsty” Momsen.
4. Solange vs. Beyonce in a House of Dereon wear-off.
5. Edward Pattinson for atrocious hair and for what may possibly be a crime against humanity for allowing his hotness to be masked by a general lack of hygiene.
6. Jessica Biel for all over sloppiness.
7. Evan Rachel Wood for not only taking over Dita’s ex, but also her style.
8. And this year’s most cringe-worthy offender, Katy Perry.
Oh, as always, the Olsens, Bjork, and SJP need to be in there. Sorry, but Jess Simpson earns a spot this year (in my eyes, at least). Also, I would like to see Amy Winehouse, BSpears, the Hiltons, Madonna, Victoria Bekham, Mischa Barton, Li-Lo, and Sam Ronson in the mix somewhere . . .
We cannot forget MILEY!
She is so young and going so wrong so quick! We need to fix it fast and furious!
Remember when Jan Brady showed up wearing that black afro wig and heinous flower dress because tragically -she wanted to be someone else other her dull self?…She looked Bangin’ HOT comared to these fugs:
*Most Annoying all around FUG* – I nominate Carrie Underwood…What a fashion numbskull. Thanks a lot American Idol…BAAAAARRRFFFF I have germs in my drain that look better.
*Dupont Plastics Engineering FUG Red Carpet Award* – I nominate Lisa Rinna who’s face looks made of Bakalite. And will Dolce & Gabbana PLEAAAZ restrain her dreaded stylist from popping up at their showroom and robbing of them yet of ANOTHER leopard spot dress. Tony the Tired Tiger says Ggggrrrrosss!!!!
*Too Much BoFlex/Botox Fug Award* – I nominate Madonna. A ripped body is fabulous. A ripped body in a boa with an attitude is a drag queen.
*Acid is Groovy Fug Award” – Goes to Mischa Barton. If you knocked me over my head, fed me ecstacy brownies, wrapped me in fly paper and through me into Paula Abduhl’s closet in the dark- I’d STILL come out looking better than Mischa Barton.
This is so fun.
I wanna be a FUG GIRL TOO!!!! xo
SWINTON!
I have only one request: Taylor Momsen.
Mainly because she walks around looking like a teenage vampire with that same bored, vacant expression on her face.
And secretly because I really really hate Little J.
Tilda Swinton
Mickey Rourke
Nicole Kidman
SJP
The Olsens
Jordan
Meryl Streep and her twin in clothes picking Glenn Close
Tyra Banks, and Victoria Beckham, they should both be old enough to know better.
Paula Abdul
Courtney Love
Tilda Swinton
Phoebe Price
Samantha Ronson
Taylor Momsen
Joaquin Phoenix
Kanye West
Sharon Stone
Britney Murphy
Daniel Day Lewis
I’ve nominated several, and agree with 99% of the mentioned. I just want to make sure these two are in there.
KRISTEN STEWART,
she fits in or fugs in the vampire role to a T, looks like the blood is drained from her anemic face. Give her a transfusion please! I thought she was fugly back when she did the Panic Room movie.
BUT, she might have a reason for her fugness, I found a pic of her on Celebuzz.com. She has on a bikini with cannabis leaves on the nips, so is she high? Will that be her excuse???
As much as I like
SJP,
maybe I like Carrie Bradshaw better. She never wore those FUGGING goat boots on the show. I can over look the stupid fug feather in her cap, but those fugging boots?!
BUT, we have never seen her feet. Maybe she does HAVE cloven feet?!? Will that be her excuse?
Stupid fuggers!!
Madonna, because she’s mutton dressed up as lamb.
Amy Winhouse, because no one should wear a red bra as a shirt in 30 degree weather.
Kevin Federline, because he still looks like an unmade bed.
Mickey Rourke, because he looks like an unmade bed with satin sheets.
Brigitte Nielsen, because she’s starting to remind me of Madonna.
Marla Maples, because no one pays attention to her anymore.
Shar Jackson, because . . . just because.
SWINTON!!!!! – i love yee
sjp – i never thought i would say it but…
katy perry – i feel bad giving her publicty/oxygen
maggie g – i have mad love for you but girl please
fergie – maybe just cos i hate her
bai ling – still epic
brangelina – i agree with someone who posted earlier. they look like waxy puppets. and that helmet hair
rourke – no words
jessica simpson
benji madden
pete wentz
hasidic meth beard
kayne’s mullet
The Madden brother with Harlow, ridunkulous, even if he was a cartoon.
Ben (Violet’s dad–I’m blanking his last name) for wearing an awful facial expression all the time, plus dumpy.
Has anyone mentioned Rumer Willis, although I feel kind of bad for her.
Also Kanye.
Looks like a really strong division for the men this year.
Your top seed has got to be SWINTON! — “It’s hip, it’s happening, it’s SWINTON!”
Not only should this name never be seen in print unless in ALL CAPS, but it also simply demands an exclamation point! And a very specific pronounciation — emphasizing a higher-pitched second syllable, in the time-honored tradition of animated TV bosses (e.g. Mr. Slate’s “FLINTSTONE!”, Mr. Spacely’s “JETSON!”, and Superintendent Whats-his-name’s “SKINNER!”)
Tilda Swinton,
Lady Gaga,
Mickey Rourke,
Joaquim Phoenix,
The chick from Twilight (Kristen something?)
Aubrey O’Day,
and T Swin again. Please. She looks ridonkulus in some of her outfits
For sheer enjoyment this year, SWINTON! M.I.A. Katy Perry (totally agree with feeling guilty about allowing her to breathe) Carrie Underwood, the usual suspects.
However, I adore Mickey Rourke and I view what he wears with sheer hilarity every time I see him. That man is the shit and can wear what ever he damn well wants.
Did I mention he’s hilarious? I <3 Mickey
And he is so not fug. He’s AWESOME.
And kudos to Sharon Stone for walking around with her boobs hanging out. Quite literally.
xoxo
I nominate:
Joaquin P.
Beyonce
Solange
Bai Ling
Rihanna
Katie Holmes – seriously, she needs to be scolded for those pegs.
La Lohan
and of course, SWINTON.
Hooray for the Fug-off!
First off, I luvs the Fug Girls. You guys are the awesomeness.
And now the nominees:
Solange: please, stop. Think of the children.
Phoebe Price: Satan’s Barbie doll.
Lindsey Lohan: a) eat a sandwich already-geez, b) I hope your leggings die in a tragic gasoline fight accident a la Zoolander. I hope you survive, though.
And, for the love of Hey-zus Crisco, please PLEASE make a category for the SWINTON. I HEART THE SWINTON! All hail Queen SWINTON!
i saw a nom for ed westwick as chuck bass, to which i say BLASPHEMY. fugging chuck bass just…doesn’t…work…because he is just so outrageously gangsta-fey.
but ed westwick himself? boy is a serious contender amongst the lackluster male nominees. all those pointy shoes that lace up the sides?? and the artful expanses of chest hair????
Bai Ling
Swinton
Joaquim Phoenix the actor
Joaquim Phoenix the creepy, maybe hip-hop artist
Looove this site, and love Fug madness….hmmm where to begin! There are many bad dressers in entertainment, but to focus on the fugliest:
1. SWINTON – but gotta admore her self-confidence, totally unwavering!
2. Madonna
3. Juliette Lewis – ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
4. M”ick”ey Rourke

SJP. A pot on her head, you guys. An otherwise okay dress, but *a pot on her head*. Fugshines even the toe boots.

I say we just skip the contest and name Bai Ling, Fugtator-for-Life. Because I don’t care how many names you spit out, Bai Ling’s fugginess still beats them all. Granted this would mean we’d be living under the spike-healed thigh high boots of one of Bai’s personalities in a Fugtatorship, but no matter how bad a leader Bai may be, she can’t be any worst than Nixon or Bush. Frankly I’m surprised no one’s come up with Bai Ling Facts ala Chuck Norris Facts.
Yes, this box definitely needs to go to the top of the page.
Beyonce, for her endless shiny variations on one theme: heaving bazoombas over a Saran-wrapped silhouette.
And I like the earlier idea of a Kate Hudson/Goldie Hawn entry. There must be a genetic predisposition to messy hair, lip-stick smears, and mu-muus. (muu-muus? moo-moos?)
And SWINTON may be the only woman alive who is tall enough and thin enough to wear straight-off-the-runway clothing. I think that gives her a pass.
Speidi. for being fugliest on the inside, where it counts. Really, can you get any worse?
SWINTON
SWINTON
I we LOOK hard enough, IF WE TRY HARD ENOUGH, we MUST be able to find some way to include THE PELDONS?!
Taylor Momsen

Joaquin Phoenix
Shenae Grimes. When I moved back to the states from Canada this year, I actually thought “Thank God. Now I won’t have to watch Shenae Grimes ruin Degrassi anymore.” only to have her show up on TV here to ruin another terrible revived TV show with her half constipated/half mocking smirk.
a whole lot of whack-a-doo:
mariah carey – why is she flying under the radar here?
solange knowles
juliette lewis
paris hilton
olsen x2
phoebe price
Absolutely Gwyneth Paltrow for: 1) having the nerve to start the horrible GOOP website, 2) talking down to everyone who doesn’t eat a only a teaspoon of buckwheat a day and who can’t afford $1200 Louboutins and then 3) having the audacity to run around in outfits so short/see through/ heinous it makes me want to jab my eyes out
Tilda Swinton!
SWINTON!!
Katie Holmes for starting or exacerbating the pegged pants.
I take this opportunity to nominate… Drum roll please…
Carrie Underwood
Did anyone see her for the New Year’s Eve thing with Taylor Swift and the Fugnas Brothers?
Why Carrie? Why?
And also (as a product of my previous nomination) I nominate the Jonas Brothers.
Because if there is anyone in this insane world of fuggery that needs some recognition it’s them. The little hats and short ties make me want to take them by their tweenie necks and yell “Listen here you! This WEIRD outfit of shrunken dress atire is not ok! I don’t care what your stylist says!!!”
Love, Nic
Olsens, GaGa, and especially the Swinton. She is so loveable in her fugliness.
And maybe also Katie Holmes. Because she’s just so…oh what’s the word I’m looking for… glib (yes, that’s it). And because she wore denim shorts over tights. Which I did in fourth grade. Except I had to sneak my footless lace-trimmed tights to school in my bag because my sweet mother was far to sane to ever let me leave the house in anything so atrocious. But apparently Katie doesn’t have the benefit of a loving maternal fashion guide-type. Which maybe is an argument against nominating her because my poor heart just overflows with pity for her.
Hey, can you get shirts made that say “I (heart) SWINTON! Fug Madness 2009″??? I promise I would buy 3.
Kate Hudson. Her stylist should be strangled with a muumuu.
Angelina Jolie. The way she shows up to important events is just insulting to the viewers. If you have to wear something ugly, at least make it interesting!
Tayler Momsen, for her hair.
Mickey Rourke, for being disgusting inside and out.
Bai Ling
Phoebe Price
Jay Manuel !!!
Solange
Kanye
LIsa RInna
Alicia Keys: Waste of good genes, wearer of bad jeans x
Isaac Mizrahi by association. I mean- purse hats? No.
Tori Spelling and Mr. Tori Spelling
Taylor Momsen should take it all…there is no excuse for anyone that young and pretty ever leaving the house looking like that.
Both Alex and Simon from Housewives of NYC.
Not only are they awful dressers, they are awful people.
‘Men’
- Jonas Brothers – for their awful hair alone.
- Tom Cruise – creepy
- Ben Affleck hairy, bloated, past it.
- Anyone with facial hair ( phoenix, pitt et al)
Women – spackle faces:
- Teri Hatcher
- Kylie Minogue
- Nicole Kidman (sorry dear, I’m Australian and all, but too much ‘work’ done, too little colour everywhere)
Please eat:
- Kate Bosworth
- mischa Barton
- Sam whatshename – Lohan’s friend. and La Lohan herself come to think of it…
- Rachel Zoe
Act/dress your age:
- Kiki Dunst (don’t actors make money?)
- S.J.P. for her hats alone
- Agness Deyn
- Jada Pinkett Smith (too much work done, boring, old)
- Solange. nuff.
- Melissa George (makes me ashamed to be an Australian, what was she in again?)
Sack your hairdresser:
- Selma Blair
- Jessica Biel (ever heard of shampoo or a comb?)
Kanye’s tall blonde fembot girlfriend!
If Katie Holmes doesn’t take it for the summer of strange pant choices and all and all becoming a doll for Tommy, It better go to Solange for her world of crazy this year.
1. courtney love. i suspect her newfound sobriety resulted in a drug surplus generously donated to the cracked-out judges of elle’s style awards.
2. sharon ‘rapid beaver’ stone.
Not Swinton – she’s so bad she’s good!
Mischa Barton definitely, she’s disgraceful.
Katie Holmes and those horrible pegged jeans.
Jessican Simpson and her Mom jeans.
Anyone with camel toe (I’m looking at YOU Alicia Keys).
And Joan Rivers. Not because I can think of any bad clothing she’s worn, but because she scares me.
micha barton
solange
SWINTON
bai ling
britney spears
miley cyrus
Lindsay Lohan – leggings, enough said.
Beyonce – even she can make an Oscar dress look trashy.
My number one is Blake Lively. Not because her outfits are all that terrible (although jumpsuits are completely inappropriate), but because she is AMAZINGLY beautiful, young, and healthy. And yet she ruins that by squeezing into too small dresses and hideous casual wear. The contrast between what she could look like and what she actually wears is large enough for me to think she’s the fugliest!
I LOVE you girls!
KATY PERRY
Solange
Madonna
LiLo
ScarJo

Rose Byrne’s facial expressions
Taylor Momsen’s hair AND facial expressions
And in the category of You Have Unbeatable Genes; Why Do You Always Look Sub-Par? AKA Most Egregious Misuse of Raw Materials: Heidi Klum and Angelina Jolie
Oh yeah, Lisa Rinna could take it SOLELY based on the peekaboo vag dress….
And for award show fug, its a tie between Renee Zewelleger’s TERRIBLE ensemble and Phillip Seymour Hoffman’s TERRIBLE hat at the Oscars (its amazing how one accessory can screw up an entire outfit!)…
Please don’t forget 90210- drunkface and Shanae
Shanae Grimes
Beyonce
SWINTON
Aubrey O’Day
Kim Z. from Atlanta Housewives
Lisa Rinna (the full fug package)
Phoebe Price (the worst really)
Lady Gaga (wtf?)
Aubrey O’Day (just gross)
Taylor Momsen (trying, but …)
Kanye West (b/c I hate him)
Mickey Rourke (tragic)
Joaquin Phoenix (shave already)
I would also list a certain heiress, but she gets too much attention already.
SWINTON, of course. She wears everything with Bjork-like assurance. Everything can include tin cans, wood shavings, a hat stand, her school report from when she was 12 and Solange.
And as a group nominee (if it’s allowed) the Pussycat Dolls. For people who wear so many different things at once, they still seem to be wearing half nothing. This makes my brain (and eyes) hurt.
If it’s possible, I would like to unnominate Katy Perry. I just want her to go away. ‘Hot and Cold’ can stay though.
In the interest of fairness, I digress from adding anyone who wears outrageous fashions on stage, as I think their choices are more for entertainment value than style (e.g., Katy Perry and Lady Ga Ga).
That being said…… my first nomination (and I have a feeling one of this year’s guaranteed runners-up:
Jessica Simpson
Now, I know you can argue that most of what offends is what she wears on stage, however, she does not dress outrageously enough (again Perry and Ga Ga) to exclude her. Rather, she makes horrible choices for the shape of her body (which there is NOTHING wrong with). I think she dresses that way because she fears that if she wears looser clothes, she will look fatter, but winds up having the opposite effect – her clothes actually make her look fatter than she really is, because she doesn’t wear the right size or proportions.
Ok, enough of my Jessica rant. Here are my other nominations (in no paticular order):
Beyonce
Solage
Nicky Hilton
Jennifer Lopez
Gwyneth Paltrow (hate her)
Amy Whinehouse (a special fug aware should be given just to the ballet slippers)
My noms in no particular order…
Jessica Biel – could she BE any more boring?
Robert Pattinson and what’s her face the co-star – take a shower and ENJOY life
Zac Efron – scrub off the self-tanner, kiddo
Tyra Banks – even if she IS wonderfully fierce.
Gwyneth Paltrow
Kanye – srsly, the 80s are over
Chloe Sevingy, Jessica Simpson, L.Lo, MK and Ashley, and the entire casts of The Hills and The City.
I do, however, believe Katy Perry and Mickey Rourke should get mulligans this year, considering it’s their first year to be eligible. And they’re awesome.
Oh yeah, and M.I.A.
keep that shizz under wraps, girfriend.
Drunkface.
Jessica Biel. Oscar dress made of utter FAIL.
Whitney “Really, I work in the FASHION industry and this is how I dress anyway” Port. Although I would totally have cocktails with her, she seems like a sweet person just misguided FASHION choices.
SWINTON. No, I take that back. I love SWINTON and I would totally love her in that dress Charlize Theron is wearing in the 3/4/09 poll.
LOL @ (Solange vs. Beyonce in a House of Dereon wear-off). Such a GREAT IDEA. I would LOVE for these 2 to face off. I think Solange will blow B outta the water
Please, Please, PLEASE stop giving Phoebe Price the time of day….she is SO not worth your eloquent diatribe!
M.I.A (the beachball girl)
Paula Abdul
Matthew McConneaugh
David Arquette
Most of the regular contestants have already been nominated. I can’t wait to see who pulls off the 2009 Championship! May the worst dressed win!
***KATY PERRY***
***KATY PERRY***
***KATY PERRY***
SHE IS SO FUG THAT I HAVE HAD TO RESORT TO CRAZY-OLD-PERSON CAPS-LOCK USAGE.
Seriously, I have no idea whether Ms. Perry can even sing or not. Because she is SO FUG, whenever I see her name on my satellite radio display I turn the station before I can hear her voice. Her outfits are FUG to the nth degree.
jessica alba’s bangs
Jessica Biel – she just turned 27 but she’s always dressed like a 35 year old mom with an LL bean catalog
Gwyneth Paltrow – honestly, when is the last time she’s looked good? Probably when she dating Affleck (maybe even Pitt)
Kanye West – the man must be stopped
Ageyness Deyne, Chloe Sevigny, Sienna Miller, Mary Kate Olsen – no need to explain
LiLo
P. Hilton
Olsens
K. Perry
Solange
The entire cast of The Hills (but mostly H. Montag)
L. Rinna
J. Biel
Momsen
A. Wino
P. ABDUL!
Angelina Jolie, for boring-/frumpiness. What happened to her fashion style??!! She used to make awesome/gorgeous choices somewhat regularly, but lately absolutely nothing has registered above “average.” She has lost her fashion nerve and is just going for “comfortable,” and that is NOT to be commended.
(Although her bitchface HAS improved – I think I’ve seen her smiling in something like 5 recent photos!)
Jessica Biel. so beautiful and dating J-T no less and yet her outfits are completedly unispired. Everytime i see her on a mag, or on this blog, i am utterly amazed at her fugly wardrobe choices.
Also, thank you for making March (a.k.a. February, Part II) bearable.
My nominations for Fug Madness 2009 are:
SWINTON
Solange Knowles
Beyonce (lady, you are married to one of the best dressed men in Hollywood… LEARN FROM HIM!)
Phoebe Price
Aubrey O’Day
Mischa Barton
Mary-Kate Olsen
Katy Perry
and
(though it pains me to say it because I LOVE her)
Zoey Deschanel
There is no justice in the world if Solange isn’t a top seed in this year’s Fug Madness.
The High School Musical crew was pretty fugly this year.
And Jessica Biel and her fugly, greasy, unwashed hair. Yuck!
I would like to un-nominate SWINTON. She’s not fug, she’s OTHER — in her own category, on her own planet, in her own universe… where she is the QUEEN!
Angelina. Her level of effort these days seems to be to ask herself, “What would Wonder Woman throw on for tax night on Paradise Island?”
Oh, just hand the crown to Swinton already.
Mischa
Jessica Biel
Pete Wentz
Kelly Wearstler

Jennifer Anniston, for boring black
Angelina Jolie, for boring baggy
Katy Perry

Lady Gaga
Lindsey Lohan and Samantha Ronson, together or separately, I don’t care
Tyra Banks, I would love to see her real hair
Mischa Barton
Miley Cyrus
1) Solange- She knows why
2) Beyonce- No Beyonce, let me upgrade YOU. And stop condescending Etta, it’s irritating.
3) Katy Perry- Even if her personality did not suck, her wardrobe often leaves me praying for blindenss
4) Rene Zellweger- She looks so scary and I just want her to stand up straight
5) Joaquin Phoenix- Again, he knows why
6) Aubrey O’Day- For refusing to just go away
But please spare SWINTONG. She’s so cracked out that she’s fabulous
That was supposed to be SWINTON, I got so caught up in her awesome that I could not focus
There are so many repeat names from last year. Perhaps you could consider some kind of “fug emeritus” catagory for lifetime achievement. Some of these offenders are so obvious, that it’s no surprise to see their names suggested. Maybe not this year, but in the future.
I know there were many a fug star this year but the one that I keep coming back to is Beyonce. I know she’s all Sasha Ferce but really who looks in the mirror and say a mechanical hand is just what I need to finish this outfit off!
Stephen Cojocaru – fo’ shiz
SJP. Yikes.
Lisa Rinna makes me cringe.
Paula Abdul is kind of like an alternate version of her. Except with a Sergeant Pepper jacket.
Lindsay Lohan x 10000.
And I can barely look at Samantha Ronson– I’m so embarrassed for her and her big marshmallow shoes, her bad orangey bleach hair, and that dumb dumb hat. And the vest.
Kim Kardashian is automatically nominated because of the gold talon. Even if she had been the pinnacle of class and taste every other day of the year, that gold talon was unconscionable.
Gwen Stefani too often crosses the line from cartoony and fun to full-on fug.
The “fashionable” Olsen twin. (Mary-Kate?) The one with unwashed hair and a bag she can fit in, enormous clothes and scary buckle-y dominatrix-y platform sandals. That twin.
Paris Hilton for innumerable crimes against humanity. Seriously.
Speidi
Aubrey O’Day
Angelian Jolie (she often masquerades as a pensioner)

The Hilton sisters
Agyness Deyn

Gosh the possibilies are endless…

1. Gwyneth Paltrow: for making “sophistication” look stupid, expensive and void of personality. Honey, your legs in shorts and mini shirks and your face sticking out of the bland designer clothes are not that interesting. What else you got to show? Nah, I read all those books when I was sixteen.
2.Madonna:should be put to sleep for devoting her life to being thin and pleasing men and pretty much nothing else.

Angelina and her fervor for Hefty Cinch Sack dresses.
Pete Wentz or Cleopatra or whatever
All of the above, but truly, Chloe Sevigny, for that unforgivable line of “clothing” for Opening Ceremony. The mind just boggles (and keeps boggling) over that one.
SWINTON needs to be the overall no. 1 seed in the entire Fug Madness tournament. She and her shapeless Lanvin sacks have damn well earned the easiest path to the Final Four. If SWINTON gets derailed by Bai Ling in the Elite Eight (a la Chloe Sevigny last year), I will know your tournament is rigged.
SWINTON. There is only one. Your 2009 Fug Madness Champion.
Swinton… in all my years I have never seen someone look so fug but somehow chic at the same time. Kinda makes me want to burn some leggings out on my patio and start chanting her awesomeness. But then the fire department would be called, and how how HOW am I going to explain to my fiance that I burnt the joint down (it’s a covered patio) burning leggings to honor the awesomeness that is Swinton? Somehow I don’t think he would get it…

katie price/jordan – because, until the post from the other day, i had totallllly forgotten about her. and i’d love to see what awfulness she’s been up to in the past year under our noses.
bret michaels/rock of love “women” – if only for the AWESOME comments heather & jess would make on the screencaps they would trot out.
Mischa Barton.

Lisa Renna
Mickey Roark
Megan Fox
Is it too soon and/or too shitty to be nominating Lourdes Leon? Because OH. MY. GOD.

I would LOVE to see two fug-to-the-death matches:
CRAZY Bracket – Solange vs. SWINTON! Trying to be crazy vs. actually crazy. Which is which?
Excessive! Bracket – Sharon (Watch your pets closely if she’s around) Stone vs. Kat(i)e (Watch me wear every decade’s trendy jean fad since the dawn of time in one week) Holmes-Cruise [tightly rolled up cuffs? really? mmmmhmmmmmm.]
That is a solemn wish.
Be.Yon.Ce and Sasha Fierce. Both of them.
Pleaseandthankyou.
Katie Holmes! It almost feels like an intentional snub–she knows better, she’s a classy lady. That fuchsia sweater with the jeans and red shoes? dang, Katie.
TILDA ‘FROM ANOTHER PLANET’ SWINTON.
I can only nominate Chloe Sevigny since her failure to win last year caused me to lose all faith in mankind. It did not, however, cause her to make better sartorial choices.
HEY.
LEAVE SWINTON ALONE.
she is a treasure.
anyone who can make a trash bag avant garde and not look COMPLETELY stupid.
is a goddness.
insane yes.
but really what goddess isnt?
they are all turning into animals and having sex.
and being birthed out of giant venerated foreheads.
ANYWAYS.
katy perry.
aubrey o’day.
nuff said.
Jennifer Love Hewitt (in addition to the horrific fashion, she’s totally annoying) and Mischa Barton (do I need to justify this?).
It was a bad, blonde year and I doubt most of my noms are true celebrities based on their current employment:
-Paris the heiress
-Aubrey O’Day and her little dog, too
-Lindsay “my pants went where my job did” Lohan
-Britney Spears (before, during and after, you can’t have a comeback if you were never there)
-Mushy Mischa and her whack headgear
-I want to say Momsen but there has to be an age limit so I’ll leave her alone.

Kate Hudson – for the recent sequin number alone.
Joaquin Phoenix. We all know why.
Kristen Stewart – perennial sourpuss Fug
oh march madness, how I love thee!

Aubrey O’Day’s dog?
Katy Perry
Lisa Rinna
Tyra Banks. She gets crazier by the minute, so she HAS to have some crazy outfits we can dig up here, right? RIGHT?
wait… can we pleeeease have a Battle of Borings:
Aniston vs. Angelina
if we must constantly hear the Jen vs. Jolie crap, at least this is one time there would be legitimate competition….
and how could I forget:
Katie Holmes. The jeans, dear god, the jeans.
while we’re at it, how about a Well Played category for the ever-impeccable Suri Cruise.
I nominated a few people earlier, but I forgot to add Phoebe Price, who I believe could pull off a feat similar to the low-seeded C. Peldon last year. I’m not sure why I didn’t nominate Phoebe originally, but I think its because I kind of always assumed she was C. Peldon’s sister/evil twin and you mentioned earlier that there weren’t very many pictures of the Peldons this year.
But, the picture with Phoebe Price reminded me that she is in fact her own person, so I would just like to take this opportunity to make a whole-hearted plug for a high seed for Ms. Price this year in Fug Madness. Anybody who actually wears Lindsay Lohan’s madcap leggings deserves a seed of at least 3 or 4.
Oh, and a little p.s. I just wanted to say thank you, Fug Girls, for helping me to finally understand how brackets work. Years of watching March Madness totally confused never taught me a thing, but the moment Bai Ling enters the picture I understand. Gracias, amigas!

SWINTON is the new black
Please pick Lily Allen! She hasn’t been on the site in a while, which is incredibly surprising since she’s been wearing nothing but black tights and shorts for the last 4 months or so.
Taylor Momsen – not so much for her hair (which is a tragedy that happened to me once and took FOREVER to grow out) but more for her ATTITUDE!
And yes to leaving Swinton alone, she’s in a class all of her own.

Paula Abdul, the Empress Carlotta of Laker Girls.
Kate Hudson… she has worn more ugly gowns this year than all the patients at the Mayo Clinic.

And in general – Courtney Love – for her constant fug.
And in the men’s/furry category – Joaquin Phoenix.
can i just nominate anybody who frequently wears kitchy retro atire? seriously, i cannot think of anything more irritating than gimmicky pin-up wear.
and while i’m on gimmick clothing, i’m going to go ahead and throw out another nomination for lady gaga. i honesly wouldn’t care so much if she restricted her pantless, hair-bowed, latex body suited,cake faced antics to her on stage persona, but since she seems to be stuck in a misguided, fug character, i think you ladies need to slap some much needed fashion sense into her (or maybe i just want someone to slap her in general).

bai hasn’t been as spectacular this year. she is ripe for unseating.
SWINTON.
I think you really have to include Kelly Wearstler.
Amy Winehouse is the thinnest fug’in ugliest of ALL! PLUS she stashes dope in her hairdo. How FUG’in is that?
Joaqin Phoenix is a must on the mens’ side, we all agree on that I think.
Girlies:
Madonna. Please stop, mutton dressed as lamb? Nah, sheperd’s pie dressed as sheep zygote.
Dita Von Teese please. Look, it was cute for a while and she always looks immaculate. But seventy years out of date immaculate. (Plus I think I’m jealous that she’s 36 and looks like she does)
Similarly, Taylor Momsen needs to be fug’d because she’s dressing too old as well. She’s barely mid-teens and already looks like she’s run out of ideas, plus she worries me.
Alice Dellal- wow, so you got an undercut. You’re eDgY. YAWN
Katy Perry, you have an amazing figure. Dress conventionally pretty a couple of time please. Also, have a chat with Dita. It’s 2009, we need some updates.
For the boys:
Brad Pitt needs to make the most out of his beauty NOW and say goodbye to ridiculous facial hair.
Joaquin Phoenix- Whhhyyyy? You *were* Johnny Cash, take a leaf outta Mickey Rourke’s book (a little leaf and be selective) and sort yourself out.
Kanye – I hate the way he dresses so much. It maketh my eyes burn with all his tweed and check and FUG
To whoever wrote this yesterday at 7:34 pm (http://gofugyourself.celebuzz.com/go_fug_yourself/2009/02/fug_madness_is_right_around_th.html#comment-332241):
“I just wanted to say thank you, Fug Girls, for helping me to finally understand how brackets work. Years of watching March Madness totally confused never taught me a thing, but the moment Bai Ling enters the picture I understand.”
That totally cracked me up! For some reason, now I have a vision of Bai Ling in a basketball uniform (which, hey, could be her next big red carpet outfit!).
Gee, where to start.
Peldons! Both Brown and the other one.
Courtney Love
Bai Ling, natch.
Gwyneth Paltrow
Solange
Phoebe Price
Katie Price, “Jordan”
The Swinton, should have a bracket of her own.
Olsen Twins
I’m sure I’m leaving something out, but it’s a start!
Agyness Deyn – You’re high fashion, we get it.
Taylor Momsen – She reminds of the FloBee (K, spelling might be off) scene in Wayne’s World.
Katy Perry. And again, Katy Perry.
Ty-Ty Baby! I love her brand of crazy, but…
And for the boys – Criss Angel.
In no fugticular order…
1. Miley… And Vanessa ‘I make STACKS of cash but I still dress as generically CHEAP and UN inspiring as possible’…
2. Phoebe Price – what does she even DO? I discovered her on your site & yesterday when I was reminding myself of her history I couldn’t even swallow my lunch. Foul foul foul
3. Barton… Ugh Paris… Ugh Lindsay… Ugh Lindsay’s dumb sister… UGH… and her mother (but these people realllllly deserve no attention)
4. Lisa Rinna. Who the hell Actually endorses this woman even leaving her house!?!
5. Taylor sour-fug-puss Momsen… and Blake ‘there is Nothing LIVELY about you’ Lively
6. Paula Abdul
7. Carrie ‘I wear the same glittery gold dress to EVERY awards ceremony’ Underwood
8. Jennifer ‘Boring’ (and I occasionally feel bad for you) Aniston
9. Renee Zellweger – Her face is so squinty she makes me squint just looking at her… So I will be blaming her for the premature lines on my face
10. The entire cast of the new Beverly Hills – what splintered pole is stuck up all their boney arses?!!… Ugh!… So gross! Especially Shenae Grimes – whatever the fug her stupid name is… Whoever gave her that role needs to own up – and hang their damn head in shame!!!
and (11.) AUBREY O’DAY!!!…
Too many to list. How will this be decided…
AND every poor TINY dog that is purchased, touched and dressed by any of these shameful people… Gross
and then Kanye WEST… even worse then the pubic hair on his HEAD is his stupid ATTITUDE… accepting his best international male at the Brit awards was the stupidest speech I’ve ever heard. Get over yourself! People should stop encouraging this man!
OH and in the GET OVER Yourself category is Evan Rachel Wood… Figure yourself out. You are Not Dita Von Teese, not any sort of ‘teeeeeese’… Another ‘I’m better then everyone’ smirker… We DO not want to be you honey…
Love Swinton Love Bai Ling Love Rourke LOoooVE the Go Fug Yourself gals! x x x
AND!!! Fergie ‘I can’t look at your cake face’ Ferrrrrrg… Bah!
It has to be Sharon Stone, “the Headlight Hottie!” Perhaps Ms. Stone is far sighted or gets dressed in the dark and can’t see herself in the mirror. Yeah right …
jessica biel and anglina jolie for being as boring as each other,
joaquin phoenix for wasting his hotness
lady gaga and all the pussycat dolls for hurting my eyes
Ugh!!! Courtney Pelton – and the twitt she hangs with – I have no idea who she is, what she does, how old she is, why she has that stupid face on all the time?… Seriously how old is she… 38?… 42?… But dresses like a 14 year old…??? I’d never wanna trade places with that tragic mess…
Ever heard of Jodie Marsh …
Feast your eyes fuggers …
I agree with the lot… please include Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, and Tilda Swinton.
And oh… Mickey Rourke!
Mischa Barton – is it possible to nominate her gross hair extensions seperately – they have taken on a life of their own
Lindsay Lohan – enough with the leggings already
Agyness Deyn
Lady Gaga
Katy Perry
Swinton
Bai Ling
Perez Hilton for sure!
Agyness Deyn, for all the extra “y”s in her name.
Solange
Paris Hilton
SJP for camel toe shoes ALONE
Lady Gaga, please oh please
Katy Perry
I think Chloe Sevigny deserves a lifetime achievement award
PS How is it that most of these people get fashion lines of their own?
Sarah Jessica Parker and Katie Holmes.
Cloven foot boots + pegged denim = the apocalypse
I have to nominate Deborra-Lee Furness for being supremely dowdy. The tuxedo/leggings outfit she wore to the London premiere of Australia was truly appalling.
By the way, it’s certainly not because I am jealous that she’s married to the world’s sexiest man, Hugh Jackman. Oh no, certainly not.
SWINTON
Mischa Barton
Courtney Love
Fergie
Chloe Sevigny
I would also nominate the Kardashians if I thought they merited any more attention. But they bore me.
Did you know the Peldon’s have a site all of their own? Check it out to see if you can find more pics of them Fug girls
http://www.peldon.com/
Men:
David Beckham, i just don’t get it, and his tattoos are fug.
Victoria Beckham because she looks so stiff all the time.
Jlo
The Saturdays
Nicola Roberts
Aubrey O’Day – she’s like the train wreck I can’t take my eyes off. I feel bad for staring because I’m so embarrassed for her, but she did it to her self. I believe she suffers from some sort of reverse body-dismorphia, where in she thinks she is fabulous times infinity, but really she’s overdone and tacky. She COULD be cute, if she followed the age old rule: LESS IS MORE. xoxo.
Taylor Momsen
Blake Lively
Lindsay Lohan
Meryl Streep
Bai Ling
Phoebe Price
Tilda Swinton
SOLANGE
Aubrey O’Day
Taylor Momsen… you know it’s bad when your own show writes in jokes about your horrible make-up choices
Mischa Barton
Renee Zellweger
Speidi
and, Shanae Grimes, just for being talentless and smug.
OK, I nominated some fugs the other day, want to add to my list the following fugs.
ANY Kardashian
ANY Hilton
ANY Katie (y)
ANY person that had no pants syndrome
For the Nastiest Fug
Lady Gag Gag
Lilly Allen
Phoebs Price
Pammy Anderson
SWINTON no ifs ands or BUTTS
We could even have a,
“They were inspired by their awesomeness and wanna look like them category”
Anna Wintor/Bai Ling
Cynthia Nixon/SWINTON
Lady Gag Gag/Courtney Love
I LOVE your site!
I really love your multiple choice answers when we can help you decide about some questionable fuggness.
Thank you, Thank you!
Since only a few of you mentioned her, I have to put in my nomination for J.Lo. She popped out twins and she can still wear gold curtains as a dress (and I use the word dress in the loosest sense of the word).
Also, I will add Sharon Stone because she is insanely fabulous.
It cannot be said enough: Mischa Barton.
Aubrey O’Day
Lisa Rinna
Kim Kardashian
Beyonce
Paris Hilton
When can we devote an entire category to bad hair, that Paulina Porizkova can sweep it? without even trying?
SWINTON is a glorious, ephemeral, and wickedly talented creature…..her style is intimidating, as is she herself – in a thrillingly wonderful way.
Let’s hear it for the boys: Jared L, Pete W, Joaquin P, Bobby T. (I think Mickey R deserves a pass…)
Sharon Stone, wow. Still an insanely gorgeous woman…and yet fug abounds. (Not to mention all the crazy…fabulous!)
Paula Abdul abides in a constant state of fug.
Seriously ladies, you need to look into Princess Beatrice of York. She is 20 now after all, and the girl needs help!
first off, leave charlize alone-everything she wears look good on her because she is a goddess even if it is ugly by itself and literally no one else in the universe could pull it off.
1. lisa rinna
2. solange
3. madonna of the black hills goth
4. paris-im still 12 years old hilton looking inappropriate at every awards show this year.
5. christina aguilaera
Brenda of 1:33pm Wendesday– you’re my hero!
“Acid is Groovy Fug Award” – Goes to Mischa Barton. If you knocked me over my head, fed me ecstacy brownies, wrapped me in fly paper and through me into Paula Abduhl’s closet in the dark- I’d STILL come out looking better than Mischa Barton.”
Fug Girls, because of you, there is an enitre U.S. government agency that’s not getting any work done…WE LOVE YOU!
SWINTON is Queen of all!
1. Madonna – please stop showing us your crotch, and those outfits she wears to Kaballah? unreal!
2. Katie Holmes – for dressing to match crazy tom! oh and the turnip jeans – gross, money and fashion sense dont always go together
3. Angelina Jolie – just cause she has a million babies doent mean soul destroyingly boring clothes
4. Any or all of The Hills cast – yawn!
5. Lilly Allen – for looking like a rat nearly all the time
6. LiLo & Saman – black leggings black boots lohan and i dress like a man sam!
I know they have already appeared numerous times but -
Jessica Simpson
Samantha Ronson
Katie Perry
Katie Holmes
Sharon Stone
Mischa Barton
Miley Cirus
Gwyenth Paltrow
Charlize Theron
She may look good in it, but that’s probably just her naked beauty radiating through. Plus, she often has boring or bad hair with her questionable-on-someone else outfits.
Phoebe Price
Lily Allen
Mischa Barton
Solange Knowles
Beyonce Knowles
Madonna
Amy Winehouse (I love your music, but bikini tops are your friend, Amy!)
Kim Kardashian
Paula Abdul
Aubrey O’Day
I nearly forgot Speidi. There is something so creepy and ewwwwww about them. Especially Spencer. He grosses me out.
Please add to the list of infamy:
Kardashians (don’t care which one, they all rock the fug)
Carrie glitzy-prom-dresses-from-hell Underwood
Liza please-wear-pants Minelli
Shauna Sands (she of lucite stripper heels)
Coco (the inflatable woman, otherwise known as Ice-T’s wife)
Kanye West (need I say more?)
Pete Wentz (I am so tired of your ill-fitting jeans, goofy hoodies and eyeliner)
Jude Law (for flaunting the chest hair and generally looking like he needs a bath)
I know most of them are old stalwarts of fug, but contenders should include (in no particular order):
SWINTON
Katy Perry
Jessica Biel
Bai Ling
Lady Gaga
Both Knowles ladies
Sharon Stone
Madonna
Sienna Miller
Mickey Rourke
Philip Seymour Hoffman
Joaquin Phoenix
Katie Price/Jordan
LiLo and her freaking leggings
I would nominate Aubrey O’Day, Paris Hilton and stuff, but I already have my winner: SOLANGE all the way! The whole fugging way!!
I un-nominate Carrie Underwood. Seriously, she’s not even in the same league as the rest of these fuggers.
I still haven’t worked out my Fug Madness conflict in re: “Good” fug v. “Bad” fug.
I mean, really, SWINTON rules the universe–but do I really want to face her wrath by suggesting she belongs in the same category as Pam Anderson and other mere Ugg-wearers?
BTW–can we have a special award for “Most Egregious Refusal to Wear Pants in 2008″?
Melissa George, Jessica Biel (Hair AND outfits), Katy Perry and Anne Hathaway (doing well at the Oscars can’t make us forget the past, can it?)
Love,
Me
Perhaps SWINTON could receive some sort of lifetime-humanitarian- achievement award?
She’s really not in the same be-legginged category as the rest of them. And might I also suggest that the trophy be Bai Ling on a pedestal?
We need some new categories such as one already metioned–
Welcome to fuggywood newcomers award
fuggy couples-fug will keep us together
fuggy siblings or relatives
ensemble casts (aka who shot the stylist)
fuggy vanguard awards for musicians
reality stars and reality hosts
Fame clingers or the fug d-list ain’t so bad
The stagnation of aging award
You can’t do a seniors bracket because people in fuggywood don’t age
fuggy couples
Marilyn manson/evan rachel wood ( I know they broke up, but they were becoming identical)
Ashley simpson/pete wentz ( I was getting concerned the baby would be born with eyeliner on too)
Ashton and demi( ashton is bored right now, he is all over the place, where as demi has done the perricone prescription in a whole new way)
Kanye West and his “friend” (Look its hard to compete with Kanye and his big personality and conservative grief look but you really don’t have to)
Kevin Federline and the volleyball chick (Kevin is in storage mode and the volleyball chick looks like she just got done working out all the time-these people do new things with fleece)
Spike Jones and Michelle Williams
Tara Reid-she’s getting better
Shauna Sand-how old is she anyway
Bobby Trendy
Clay Aiken-Also known as daddy what did you do to your pretty red hair?
Linda Hogan–also should win the poor judgement award
Kid rock–nice guy, always bad pants
K-Jo–I know the prednisone from his kidney transplant makes him puffy, but please don’t go around calling people fat glass houses and rocks you know
orlando bloom-in need of a stylist
Benjamin McKenzie-I know money is tight now that the o.c. is over, but help is needed
any celebrity that ventures into malibu country mart without makeup and then gets mad at the phototogs in the parking lot
lourdes x best female newcomer!!!!!
Please may I call for the Britney Exemption to be extended to Amy Winehouse? Woman’s been falling apart in the most visible and painful way, and going out in her bra is the least of her problems.
More deserving noms go, I say, to:
Anna Wintour (boring)
Madonna (trying too hard)
Sarah Jessica Parker (ditto! Oh, so ditto!)
Lady GaGa (can you perform your art with something other than your be-nylon’d crotch?)
Lily Allen
Agyness Deyn (sometimes fun, always overhyped)
Mary-Kate Olsen
Donna Karan (woman designs clothing, yet still goes out looking like a housewife half-swallowed by a black afghan)
Lisa Rinna
Momsen! Mischa Barton! Katy Perry!
This is so much fun!
Chloe Sev. for her 2008 clothing line ALONE is the fugliest of them all.
Niole Kidman. I’m pretty sure she is an alien.
Beyonce, pleaseeee
Taylor Momsen just because her clothes wear her and not the other way around
And anyone who refuses repeatedly to wear pants. (cough, Lindsey
Paris Hilton and Solange Knowles.I’m speechless
Alicia Keys
Hoffman Seymour Phillip
Beyonce
ScarJo
Maggie G
bring on the madness
Debra Messing
Solange
SJP
Beyonce
Solange
SJP
SWINTON
Fergie
J. Simp
Posh
The Olsens
Gwyneth
Jessica Biel
ScarFug (even her “well played”s are ishy)
Angelina (yawn!)
Adrien Brody (He used to be so hot; how did he become so skeezy?! Seriously, combing the beard and pulling the unwashed hair into a not-really-a-ponytail does not oscar-appropriate make.)
Blake Lively (girlfriend has yet to find something that actually FITS her)
My comment got lost somehow so here it is again (sorry, I just feel it’s important)
I know we are not supposed to rely on non-sartorial output here, but you know if Kate Hudson hadn’t made so many pointless terrible movies in one year then she wouldn’t have had so many premieres at which to display her tacky cheap-looking fug.
So I nominate Kate Hudson!
I have to nominate Tilda Swinton. It’s crazy combinations that would be very elegant evening wear in some alternate Star Trek universe. Besides the clothes, she, herself, looks alien-like. Some new humanesque race like the Vulcans or the Bjorans, but not quite human.
She is fug but in a classy way. Not doing it for attention like the Bai Lings and Phoebe Prices’s or in a crazy drug-addict kind of way.
How could I have forgotten Phoebe Price? Perhaps my concscious efforts to put her existence to the very back of my memory has helped!
Mischa Barton,
Amy Winehouse,
Courtney Love, and
Jennifer Love Hewitt.
Why, why do you defile
yourselves so?
Ashley and Pete Wentz- Their Uni-Sex style drives me nuts
Jessica Simpson- for putting out a plus-sized collection claiming she understands what looks good on curvier girls when a.) She’s not that big and b.) Clearly she doesn’t
Lindsey Lohan- There has to be some reason to talk about her. It not going to be a movie review. Plus, tights and terrible hair (when it used to be so pretty)
Jared Leno- For aping Kurt Cobain’s look
Speaking of… Courtney Love. You’re not in your 20′s anymore.
Aubrey O’Day- Too bad every photo couldn’t be photo-shopped to death
Mickey Rourke- You know, it may be fug, but I wouldn’t change a thing
Anybody that has donned one of those ridiculous headband thing!!
Mischa Barton
Lindsay Lohan
Rachel Zoe
Tyra Banks
Beyonce Knowles
Solange Knowles
Whoopi Goldberg
Andre Leon Tali
Paula Abdul
Aubrey O’Day
Evan rachel Wood (for her wanna be Dita stage)
Katy Perry
Lady Gaga
Perez Hilton
Angelina Jolie (for being booooring)
Jessica Simpson
Miley Cirus
Taylor Momsen
Lili Allen
Taylor Momsen for diminishing the value and esthetic of any pretty outfit with her scowly grumpy face and excessively poor posture. She appears so ungrateful wearing all the gorgeous couture like she was forced into some form of torture. Bonus marks for number one because she dresses waaaay older than her years. (By that token, lump Miley Cyrus into this category).
Solange Knowles because she has bad taste, bad clothes and bad advisors (why is big sister Beyonce spared the bad advice?) Every outfit she has been photographed in looks terrible and makes her look ridiculous! My eyes hurt looking at her.
I’m not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but would you consider nominating entire casts? So that you could have, say One Tree Hill vs. Ghost Whisperer. I know this would put the new 90210 and Gossip Girl at a HUGE advantage — Drunkface, Shenae Grimes AND what-Brenda-Walsh-has-done-to-her-face all competing against one person might be unfair. But maybe the distinction could be only things they’d worn on screen during the show? It would provide way more material to cover, considering Fug Madness is only looking at one year’s worth of work this time around…
And either way — from reading other nominations it seems clear that Drunkface and Shenae aren’t getting the public attention I really believe they deserve. Please don’t leave them off the list!
anyone but my dear sweet swinton. she’s pretty much the only movie star type who consistently wears challenging and exciting stuff (and always looks elegant). everyone’s creme or red or white dresses at every event may look beautiful and flattering but they are always dull, safe, and status quo. it’s one thing to be a starlet who wants to make some $$ and make sure that she’s pretty and sort of glamorous (i’m looking at you every boring and pretty young actress), but people, in case you haven’t noticed, swinton isn’t in the “let’s look sexy” business. she is in the business of awesome and avant garde. so there’s no way that she can even BE fug. she’s not even playing that game yall.
(btw if swinton has some papparazi pictures taken of her in LA tomorrow wearing uggs and panty hose with some really big sunglasses and a crappy hat, then i take it all back.)
Angelina Jolie–for pure boringness
Lisa Rinna–for pure tackiness and not dressing age appropriate and for all the fake body parts
Beyonce–she needs to stop wearing her Mama’s experiments
Miley Cyrus–might as well stop her now as it gets worse the older she gets
Christine Aguilara–I feel like she’s in a competition with Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga–gross!!!
Jennifer Anniston (cuz she is seriously working my last black nerve. Whining about being “over it” is fug in and of itself)
Beyonce (for creating a fictional character even more tacky than she is. Will Dereon never run out of tin foil?)
Solange Knowles (for crimes against Christmas decorations everywhere. Still my boughs of holly gently weep.)
Jessica Biel (for wasting her God given hot. There are women here in Chicago dying daily of the “not-hot” and you just wrap hot in slept in bed sheets, toss on unflattering hair and waste it. You heifer!)
Honorable mentions: SJP and JLoHew who I think may have recently morphed into the same person.
Eva Green and Mischa Barton, for being two of the most beautiful women on earth, but managing to dress like two of the worst.
Paula Abdul and Taylor Momsen because they assault my retinas.
Lisa Rinna’s face
Phoebe Price, because no one would enjoy it more {except Bai, but she’s a shoe in!). And also because Phoebe has mastered the art of trolling Rodeo and Beverly, window shopping for nothing but attention and self-esteem.
Lisa Rinna
The Knowles Sisters
Lindsay Lohan
Mickey Rourke- oy
Jessica Biel
Paris Hilton
Tilda Swinton; Solange, the bird lady; Aubrey O’Day with the bad weave & headbands; Lindsay Lohan – LEGGINGS!; Lisa Rinna – there’s only so much boob, so much vajayjay, so much swollen lip and so much leopard print we can take.
Jennifer Aniston & Angelina Jolie for being so very boring
Kanye West. What’s with the weird afro/mullet he’s been sporting lately? Also, he is a gigantic, arrogant ass. I’m sorry, but I just can’t get behind anyone who claims to be “bigger than Elvis.”
what about kanye’s new girlfriend, amber rose?
Jared Leto
Heidi Montag
Courtney Love
SOLANGE KNOWLES
AND
TAYLOR MOMSEN!
I would like to nominate Heather Mills on the basis of recent hair photos alone.
I would also like to nominate Agyness Deyn. And Henry Holland.
Lastly, I would like to nominate Sienna Miller.
People, people! How can you even consider putting SWINTON in this contest? She’s not fug, even if her clothing choices are…well, okay, sometimes they’re beyond fug but SWINTON is astounding and even her fugliest choices are redeemed by her incredibleosity. Let’s keep the fug for those who really earn it by combining fugly attitudes with fugly sartorial choices. Okay?
Nominations:
Sienna Miller
Kiera Knightley
Agyness Deyn (especially!!!)
Beyonce
and Henry Holland for the ‘men’.
Joaquin Phoenix. Being “all about the music” does not preclude him from being all about the bathing. Or grooming. Or existing in society at large.
I’d like to nominate Sophia Loren, if she hasn’t already been nominated. I know she’s an icon and was stupendously gorgeous dozens of years ago but… Mercy! That Academy Awards appearance! The hair! The makeup! The Beyonce posing! The vomitous concoction of an ensemble!
My family almost had to put me into an induced coma.
I would like to nominate Pink. I don’t think she gets enough attention on this blog. She wears totally fugarific stuff all the time, and has for years, so you could find lots of never before seen pics to use in the various rounds.
That Kristin Stewart girl from Twilight! In addition to dressing horribly, she also always looks like she’s super annoyed to have anyone take her picture, or ask her a question, or like she just generally hates being a famous girl who gets to make out with the adorable, yet increasingly annoying, Cedric Diggory.
Scarlett Johanson because boobs aren’t enough
Madonna for the feathered, astro turf things she has been wearing lately
Angelina Jolie for turning into a soccer mom
Miley Cyrus because you are never too young to start your fugging career
Haha! I just came for the comments… you guys are killing me!
and i agree with many of you that SWINTON is a goddess of fug. She resides in the Fug Pantheon with her best fuggy, Bjork. They recline on crystal thrones carved from fug, and drink fug martinis made with the blood of virgin fuggers while gazing down upon us mere mortals with bemused disaffection.
it might be a bit faux pas to include her SWINTONNESS in the mosh pit of fuggery that is about to be unleashed.
perhaps she could be the grand master of Fug Madness rather than an actual combatant. I mean, she would incinerate anyone who came up against her… imagine say, Aubrey O’Day, or whoever that girl is that dyes her dog pink. That girl would never stand a chance.
Perhaps you can have a different category for her, such as “So Fug it’s FUG” or “Fugoddesses?”
And please give the men their own place in the sun. they’ve been really upping their game recently. hello Joaquin.
Fugoddess. Brilliant. (FugGoddess?) SWINTON, are you listening?
No new noms, but it’s a little disturbing to see both Peldons looking pretty darn cute for them, and coordinated but not matchy-matchy, and not too Strawberry Shortcake. Did they hire someone?
Agyness Deyn
Mischa Barton
Mickey Rourke
For the record, I think Lady GaGa and Katie Perry should get a pass on account that they are performance artists. They are both creating a characters that help sell albums. I personally love the crazy stuff they wear.
This from Victoria, March 5 2:40 am, almost had me spitting food onto my keyboard:
“Madonna. Please stop, mutton dressed as lamb? Nah, sheperd’s pie dressed as sheep zygote.”
Can’t. Stop. Laughing.
And I have to say, I think Mickey Rourke rocks his look. Kayne West, though? FUG.
Solange, Momsen, Holmes-Cruise, 90210sies, Aubrey O’Day.
Let’s take Phoebe Price as read, shall we, and not give her any more attention.
I don’t know if this counts but Tyra on ANTM. Girlfriend goes crazy sometimes- hair, clothes, weird facial expressions, everything. I mix all the seasons up and don’t know which ones were in the right time frame but I have multiple pics in my head of T-fug in various states of alien-ness, kimono-ness, pocahantas-ness, bollywood-ness, and miss america-ness. And that’s probably all in one episode. It’s kind of like time/space travel on crack-cocaine. Or me and my sister playing dress-up as kids.
Also this may be sacrilegious but Andre Leon Talley? Anyone who’s down with capes, turbans, gloves, AND perhaps dubiously styling young actresses who don’t any better should at least be considered.
M.I.A. at the grammys in that blue dress looked like Violet Beauregard from Charlie and the Chocolate factory crossed with a mother duck wearing sneakers
PS I saw someone suggested Lil’ Wayne. Shut the F up, he’s my boyfriend. And my style icon. LOVE.
I agree with others who have said that SWINTON shouldn’t be considered the Alpha Fug this year, because I’m not sure she is even human – and there should be a clause here that states that only those who have actual blood (not comet dust) coursing through their veins should be nominated. So here are my nominations
Lisa Rinna
SJP
Solange
Paris Hilton
Juliette Lewis
And thank you so much for this blog, which has given me hours and hours of procrastination and side cramps from laughing so hard!
Beoncye
(That ain’t no) Lady GAGA
Debra Messing
SWINTON
beyonce
solange
paris
lindsay
gaga
Katy Perry
Solange
Taylor Momsen (Girlfriend needs a new do.)
Lady Gaga
Tilda Swinton
Aubrey O’Day
Jessica Simpson
Tyra
Anne Hathaway (I just don’t care for her.)
Kanye West (and I wish I could nominate his new girlfriend, Amber Rose, that girl’s middle name is Fug… but I think she’s only been around in 2009)
oooh, heather mills. every woman’s divorce victory should exemplify the hotness your ex will never touch again. but a multi-colored blazer, matching vest, and high-waisted pant?
best money sir paul ever spent.
Jay Manuel, for the hair alone
Jared Leto / Kurt Cobain impersonator
Have you SEEN him lately?? Did this look come in time for Fug Madness? God I HOPE SO!
I also nominate Amber Rose (Kanye West’s girlfriend). The elastic waist denim shorts sealed the deal for me.
Katie Holmes. She is the worst to me. Even if the freaky high cut bathing suit with high heels doesn’t count because it wasn’t this year.
mischa barton (why won’t she go away?)
beyonce & solange
lisa rinni (isn’t she like 60 years old?)
sjp
hilton sisters (why won’t they go away??)
renee zellwenger (why is she always so shiny???)
katie holmes (she looks like she’s the same age aas lisa rinni w/out the benefit of pharmaceuticals and collegen. Poor kid, abducted by aliens at the prime of her life)
paula abdul
posh
pamela anderson
lil kim (please go away)
kelly osbourne
thanks for the blog. keeps me smiling through my tears.
Beyonce
Miley Cyrus
Solange Knowles
Aubrey O’Day
Kanye West
Lisa Rinna
Kate Winslett
Aubrey O’Day – Although I have a sneaking suspicion we are just basically giving in to her fame whoring needs, but saloon fringe to fashion week is inexcusable
Kate Holmes – Because she needs to look herself square in the sartorial mirror and get the F out of dodge – also, she started the baggy rolled jeans
Solange. Bitch Please.
Beyonce. For her inability to stop considering her mother as an actual designer – and the metal finger.
Angelina. For basically EVERYTHING. I am just relishing the backlash you fraud.
JULIETTE LEWIS PEOPLE!!
Perhaps her fugs are few and far between, but when she fugs, her transgressions are great indeed…
I also think that Amber Rose might be a strong contender for next year’s fug madness…if she can keep Kanye’s mind off of himself for that long.
swinton
One more vote for the Pussycat Dolls. Oh, and Gwyneth.
I nominate Katie Holmes, Mischa Barton, Scarlett Johansson, Jessica Biel, Renee Zellweger, and Sarah Jessica Parker for the simple reason that with all that money & having stylists on hand they are that stupid that they think they look good in the crap that I have seen them in the last year! They must have not one close girlfriend to tell them how bad they look!
Also a vote to Solange – she hurts my eyes!
Wither the fug? I am so excited for this…I still have my bracket from last year!! My list:

Lady Gaga and Katy Perry

Lindsay Lohan, because I’m so sick of leggings and plaid shirts
Angelina Jolie – sooooooooooo boring!!!!
La SWINTON, qui d’autre? Supreme fugbeing to simply be worshiped!

Angelina Jolie

P.S. I’ve read she does charity work and her fug’s hair-dye is all-natural and what not but guess what, You can be known for all those things without being the blonde ditz with big boobs!! And guess what else? We’re not jealous… we think it’s sad and a leap down the ladder for all women! We are much better than that Aubrey O’ Day!! Now we all have to work harder because of you… and also, you can too!
totally hate the leggings look so have to say lindsey lohan + taylor momsen
and for an overall appeal (or lack thereof);
- solange
- spj
- katty perry
- paris
love the blog.. makes school ever so entertaining
Someone mentioned a boring category- could we please have a most boring- and include Lauren Conrad along with Angelina; she is seriously the most boring celebrity i have seen with respect to clothes.
1. All KATES/KATIES–Huson,Holmes,Perry,Moss,Bosworth,Mary-KATE Olsen
2.Madonna
3.Solange
4.Paris
Jay Manuel’s hair… I don’t even know WHAT he wears coz all I see is that HAIR!…
And Solange. Ugh. So try hard!… So Irrelevant…
The Yawn award…
1. Lauren ‘I have a fashion line’ Conrad – anyone else from the Hills – and now the City… Whitney ‘now I have a fashion line too!’ Port…
2. Angelina Jolie. Go. Away.
Katy Perry
Kanye’s mullet
Momsen
Mischa
Speidi for their sudden political switcheroo
Gwyneth
Anyone who sported ill-advised facial hair
I have a feeling that much of the time Beyonce and Solange are strongarmed into wearing whatever their mother cooks up for them. In that case I’d like to nominate Tina Knowles for subjecting us (and her daughters) to those messes.
I’d like to second the nomination for Blagojevich’s Hair. It has its own fug, separate from the deep fug that is my former governor.
Also:
Katy Perry
Lisa Rinna
Paula Abdul
Paltrow (the sleeves on the Elle cover?!!)
ScarJo
Tom Cruise (not that he dresses fug, but he just personifies it. Blago’s Hair vs. Tom Cruise for the men’s final?)
Paris effing Hilton
And oh my god bring SJP’s camel-toe boots to me on a platter
I’m sorry if these are repeats, I tried to read through the other entries but I’ve got stuff to do today. I just wanted to be sure these ladies weren’t forgotten.
LC (have people forgotten the high-waisted jeans)
Cameron Diaz (but almost solely for lack of effort)
Can “women who used to date JT and came out worse for it” be a category of it’s own?
- Paula Abdul: She’s worn some crazy stuff this past year;
- Posh – - did you see the picture of her on TMZ today? “Royal Air Force chic,” they called it;
- SWINTON (I love her, want to see more of her, I think she would go far based on the awesomeness with which she wears her crazy outfits that nobody else could wear);
- Katie Holmes (esp. all her awful pegged jeans from last year);
- Jessica Simpson;
- Beyonce (you can always find her in bad outfits);
- Gwyneth Paltrow
AWESOME. These nominations rock. I’m closing comments now, but we’ll be announcing the brackets next week.
Thank you so much for these suggestions — there’s tons of people here we would have missed otherwise.
