Teen Choice Awards Fug Carpet: Mary Murphy


This is not, I daresay, on the Hot Tamale Train.

It’s more like the Lukewarm Hot Pocket Train.

    Well, if you’re focusing on the “hot” part, you have to give it to her. That thing looks like it would be STEAMY to wear!

    Also: I want to take the boots off her and beat her with them. They are HID.

  2. Christian

    I can honestly say this is one of the worst outfits I’ve ever seen on this site, and I’ve been a reader for years!

  3. Heron

    Do they not have summer where this person lives?

  4. Sajorina

    To me it’s more like Gas Station Microwave Burrito Train! Ew!!!

  5. Cat

    Are the boots and the dress made from the same animal? Because it sure looks like it. Other than that, yowza, this is a hot mess. No shape, makes her look HUGE, looks sweltering– need I go on? Someone should have stopped her before she got out the door.

  6. Amber

    I don’t think I will ever understand the peep-toe boot. Seriously, it’s like socks with sandals to me. FUG.

  7. Carol

    I can understand the attempt — however misguided — to be hot in leather … then why pair the leather jumper with a blouse identical to those I wore at St. Aloysius School a very long time ago?

  8. Emma

    I’m scared off this “dress”. Leather dresses should not be too close to your own skin color, or it will look as if instead of having a hand, her arm just grows into her hip. Like something form a Guillermo del Toro movie… Scary!

  9. emily

    I find this such a strange choice, because she’s always dressed to the nines, covered in diamonds when she’s on so you think you can dance…. weird!

  10. Adr

    She puts the lotion in the basket….

  11. Jasmine

    Oh GOD, I didn’t even notice the peep toe boots until I saw the comments. They are so terrible, but that dress is just beyond anything I could conceive of. It looks like the thing that they put over you at the dentist when you have an X Ray, except in brown. And with puffy sleeves underneath. Anne would be ashamed of how those sleeves were used.

  12. TaraMisu

    What the…………

  13. Lesley

    Diet Coke is now spewed all over my keyboard. This is, literally, the worst outfit I have seen on this site. I cannot find one single thing that is right about this.

  14. Mongerel

    Adr

    you owe me a new keyboard

  15. Jennifer

    That is one badly shaped dress.

  16. OH

    Is she wearing a bra? I feel like she’s not wearing a bra.

  17. Alix

    @OH: I don’t know that a bra would even help at this point…

  18. kayla

    How odd. On the show she’s all cleavage and bling and jewel-toned dresses and eyeshadow, and here she looks like she’s in a brown paper bag.

  19. cstiddy

    I just said, out loud and beyond my control, “Oh dear.” And quickly averted my eyes.

  20. erin

    As Chandler would say: Could her entire look BE any more boxy?

  21. Mary Jeannine Grace-Harbison

    Oh my. How many Naugas had to die needlessly to make this hot mess. Gaargh!

  22. Ranee Singleton

    Boobs akimbo.

  23. Steph

    It’s happened. We have the leather equivilant of “a potato sack”. And she is not on the list of “can wear one and still look good”.

  24. Mary Jeannine Grace-Harbison

    Adr ——- that is perfect! – except for the coffee coming out of my nose.

  25. yvetterene

    Lukewarm Hot Pocket Train?! LMAO!! Best line I’ve ever read on this site. BTW, that thing is hideous. I wont give dresses a bad name by referring to that “thing” as one.

  26. Brooke

    she’s wearing a car seat.

  27. Kellilee

    That is one damn ugly outfit.

  28. Tracy L

    Not at all flattering. I had the denim cousin to the dress that i wore in 1994 when I was trying to hid my post-baby tummy. Wasn’t flattering then, either. I didn’t even notice the peep-toes till Amber pointed them out. FUGLY!

  29. Heather

    I LOVE Mary Murphy – how could she do this to us? Has she become delusional? Because otherwise I don’t see how she (or anyone else) could leave the house wearing this monstrosity. Agree with above poster that this might be the most hideous outfit ever to appear on this blog – because it seems to be worn in earnest, not a Lady Gaga-ish costume.

  30. Ladyblahblah

    This look brought to life by hot new LA styling duo LeatherHunter! The wives of Leatherface and Dog the Bounty Hunter have combined their unique fashion sense to create looks for the aggressively crazy C-list celebrity who may be called on to dismebowel a fellow celebrity on the red carpet without soiling her crisp white blouse.

  31. teekay

    @ adr: can’t stop giggling…

  32. Claire's mom

    The big Coach label must be on the back…..

  33. TonyG

    This is not only in the shape of a tamale, but it is also the color of refried beans. One’s clothing should never evoke refried anything.

  34. Sandra

    um……..it’s kinda……….well, sort of………Nope, I got nothing. Words cannot do justice to atrocious nature that item.

  35. cadizgal

    What does “she puts the lotion in the basket…” mean? I know it’s funny, possibly hysterical but….? *hangs head in shame*

  36. Sherri

    A buff leather….jumper?

    My mind rejects this.

    Cadizgal — look up Silence of the Lambs and all will be explained.

  37. Christopher G

    Well adr you don’t owe ME a new keyboard (my boss may have another view…), it is indeed the leather/nauga version of the paper bag, those boots-wtf-lmao&rotf (and if someone could photoshop a picture of Nick cage or Sean Penn in shorts and sandels with socks in next to her I’d die happy…)

  38. Callie

    I love So You Think You Can Dance and am not 100% annoyed by Mary Murphy (which is probably a ringing endorsement, relatively speaking). Every week, though, I cross my fingers and hope, hope, hope that maybe this will be the week that Mary has hired a stylist, which is never the case. This is just such a sad outfit. She’s clearly willing to take huge fashion risks. I just wish she had someone who would help her make the right risks.

  39. Joyce

    Oh no Mary! Oh no.

  40. emster

    I’m pretty sure J. Lo wore this in the past few months and pulled it off. It almost made me think a neutral leather dress was possible. Now, not so much.

  41. that girl

    That is one terrible outfit.

    But I think I would like that leather as a pencil skirt with the white blouse and a pair of pumps.

  42. jerkygirl

    When I started to scroll down the page, at first I thought “someone is wearing a brown sugar pop-tart costume?” and then I scrolled down further and saw it was a leather jumper dress and then I scrolled down further and saw OPEN TOED BOOTS and then I realized it was that woman from that dancing program whose laugh evokes the braying of a jackass who’s gotten into the fermented apples, and I realized she was just dressing like. . .she sounds. Also, @adr: BWAHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHA!!! :D :D :D

  43. vandalfan

    She is wearing the entire cow. She has little udder sleeves.

    (OK, lotion, basket? Clue me in, too.)

  44. Kara

    I love So You Think You Can Dance, but I cannot deal with Mary Murphy. I have to fast-forward when she comes on, because her screechiness is SO abrasive. She reminds me of a woman I used to work with who punctuated everything – EVERYTHING – with exclamation marks. No exaggeration – my grandmother died and she sent me an email expressing sympathy full of exclamation marks. Mary Murphy talks like that. (The woman didn’t speak loudly when you were face to face; it was strictly a written correspondence thing.) And she’s just too much in general, with the Oompa Loompa tan and the too-long hair and the gowns and jewels … I can’t, with her.

    And I’m with Amber – WTF with peep-toe boots?? (That is the least of this outfit’s problems.)

  45. Lisa T

    So THAT’S what happened to the car seat cover from my brother’s ’79 pinto!

  46. Leopardgirl

    Okay, so let me get this straight. Mary Murphy has decided to go all country farm girl on us and is going out in public as… a saddle. Okayyyy… And so now I begin to wonder whether she has some hunky guy waiting for her dressed in a horse skin vest with matching hippie horse mane?? What has this world come to? All I got to say is welcome to the FUGG family, Saddle Girl.

    (from the girl who gave you the “thousand dollar hippie” comment)

  47. Claire L

    I….. um…. wait, is that…..um….. Ok,yeah, I gotta go….

  48. gryt

    This totally made my day! Haha!! It’s impressive, in its own way. LOVE! :D

  49. Tiff

    I don’t know who she is, but this photo is so sad. Most photos on here are trashy or crazy or just awesomely comedic, but I feel like this girl needs a friend and a hug.

  50. Jamee

    Adr! HA! “Put the f–king lotion in the basket!!!!”

    (Silence of the Lambs…essentially Buffalo Bill wants to make a skin…mask? Skin suit? Agh…nightmares.)

  51. Ann

    It rubs the lotion on its skin.

  52. anny

    @Mary Jeannine Grace-Harbison – WILL NOBODY THINK OF THE BABY NAUGAS??!??!

  53. Amy K

    She looks like a baked potato with sour cream. Pass the chives.

  54. Imo

    Oh Ma Gaaaaad, that is the ugliest f’ing thing i’ve seen on this site for awhile

  55. Leone

    Catholic school uniform you wear to the rodeo.

  56. Alexa

    My god. She’s wearing a cardboard box with packing tissue sleeves and little cardboard box shoes with toe holes nibbled by mice.

    Bai, Aubrey and Katie Price must step off. This is the fug to end all fugs. (And yet I think SWINTON could pull it off.)

  57. Matilda

    Take the white blouse off, get a different pair of shoes and let your hair down and voila, you look a different person.

  58. Janvi Morzaria

    She borrowed Lady Gaga’s condom dress.

  59. Linda

    OMG I didn’t see the open toes on the boots. That leather thing is so heinous I had to get off the site immediately the first time I saw this pic. My eyes were bleeding.

  60. Alaurable

    She’s channelling Silence of the Lambs for me…

  61. Ciara

    Even though Mary Murphy is supposedly a dancer, I don’t think i ever want to see the bottom half of her- the part not covered by a rectangular table at the judging panel on SYTYCD. It’s like seeing the bottom half of elmo- no, actually, like miss piggy- because Mary Murphy’s face reminds me too much of Miss Piggy.

  62. szc

    ok, no one noticed she looks like Cojo??? that’s what I thought when I first saw the pic.

  63. Andrew S.

    girl, NO! she looks like she’s wearing the von trapp family couch!

  64. Bex

    A v-neck would have worked better on that jumper than a round neck. The puffed sleeves are distracting, and just a tad too young for dear Mary, who is probably a really lovely person in person, if you know what I mean. I enjoy her commentary. Her uber white teeth kind of freak me out a bit though. The toeless boots, well, they are just wrong, in any climate, on any day, in any city. Enough said.
