My absolute favorite. I see what you mean about her makeup not being quite right, especially next to Taraji Henson whose face is done perfectly. But the dress and how it looks on her, just marvelous. Her dark brown skin looks gorgeous against the gold fabric. Viola Davis’s dress was STUNNING. My absolute favorite.

I'm from Motown, so I take issue with that aside. Viola looked lovely and she should take the comment as a compliment, Motown would be happy to see her represent for them. Alicia's dress was stunning. Hair --not so much. Hard to believe sometimes she is the same girl with the cornrows. I <3 Taraji Henson's dress and makeup. I had that hairstyle in 05 though. Yup, it looks good on her. Btw, was anyone else loving the slumdog/wall-e musical numbers? I want one of those Indian inspired outfits with the full skirts. Sooo pretty. Hmmph!

Otherwise I thought Viola was radiant, less because of the dress or makeup than the attitude. She looks genuinely happy. Hollywood is finally catching on to her talent, so she has plenty to smile about. I just hope there are more roles out there for her. She really deserved that Oscar SO MUCH more than the rest of them, so she could've come to the awards in a potato sack as far as I'm concerned.

I think that they created a glamourous show for fans. I love Motown... just the way it was said I don't think he thinks of Motown like I do. no one wowed me this year. but no one looked Horrid either... well maybe that bedspread flowered fishtail dress. when I thin of motown I think of glam dresses and great wigs.

I don't like the sound of it . . . not at all! On a positive note . . . Taraji looked absolutely AMAZING . . . everything was perfection! The Queen looked amazing! I'm not too fond of one shouldered numbers . . . I would have preferred she go strapless . . . but she looked stunning nonetheless. Ms. Keys . . . yikes! to that horrible wig . . . maybe if the hair was different I could enjoy the makeup? lol. Great post, Bella! I guess we can excuse you for snoozing before the show was over, lol. That “Too Motown” comment made me cringe . . . I don’t like the sound of it . . . not at all!

I wonder if that criticism was from the same guy who thought that Sophie Okonedo's natural was "too ethnic" the year she was nominated for Hotel Rwanda. “Too Motown?”

It looked so unreal and you couldnt see her natural part...maybe she was going for a different look this time around.. Taraji looked wonderful.. I dont want to say I was shocked but I was very pleased...Queen Latifah Always looks great in what ever she wears and Im glad that she is out there to Rep the BBW's...As far as Viola..She looked wonderful..except for the makeup..but her dress was a vision..
