2013 VMA Vault of Awkwardness Continues

Just a few short hours ago celebs were tweeting their way onto the VMA's Red Carpet.

As usual this awards show didn't disappoint, sure there were great performances by the likes of Justin Timberlake, Ariana Grande and Lady Gaga, but there were also a few shudder-worthy moments to add to the VMA Vault of Awkwardness. 

I'm putting it out there, Miley Cyrus needs to get off the "Molly". I've spoken of Miley's weirdish behaviour once before here.

But she's absolutely cracked it this time. A few highlights include the crotch grab, frolicking around stage twerking in front of Robin Thicke's man parts and her very-average live voice (no surprises there right?) 

I actually can't even deal with Taylor Swift’s reaction when her ex-boyfriend Harry Styles took to the stage. The bitter beauty has been captured mouthing off to bestie Selena Gomez, as you do when your ex is within the same vicinity. Every time I look at this gif I’m in stitches! It’s even funnier because Selena is obviously onto the shifty cameraman and is trying to play it cool. Great move Sel, great move!

Just in case Harry didn’t get the kick to his groin the first time around, Taylor also thanked "the person who inspired this song [Styles], because now I have one of these".


A full list of winners can be found here.

Do you think the VMA’s lived up to the hype?

2013 Grammy Award Red Carpet

Oh nothing makes me happier than a red carpet watch on a rainy day in Sydney! Of course, whilst the Grammy Awards celebrate excellence in music and praise musicians for their talent, I have my own little version of awards to announce, and it’s regarding the best and the worst fashion and beauty choices on the red carpet.

Wax On- Wax Off

I had two look twice, if you ask me JT looks as though he has decided the skip the red carpet and instead send his very own wax statue from Madame Tussauds.

Floral Mess

Adele in Valentino

Now Adele has never been stick thin and that’s something I think is great, she works with what she has! But I’m just not sure about this frumpy looking dress. Whilst florals are all the rage, I refuse to mix two different patterned florals together; the shoes would be lovely with a different dress.

Actually... something about this dress reminds me of the old school Knitted Dolly Toilet Roll Holders. What do you think?

  

Return of the Mummies

Giuliana Rancic, in Carlos Miele, I won’t lie you’re a gorgeous little minx; however I don’t understand why you’re channeling a mummy? She almost appears to have no neck. At first I thought it may have been due to the colour of the fabric, but she’s beautifully tanned, the fact that her dress has a high neck just means she should have opted to put her hair up. Meanwhile, I think Tamia got the same memo as Giuliana, she too thinks the dress code was inspired by the Pharaohs.

Students from the Class of 2005 High School called, they said they want their formal look back.

Kaya Jones, I don’t know what she was thinking when she picked this dress. The smokey-eye is and the cherry lips are just far too much at one time. Also, whilst her makeup artist has tried to use a blend of silvers and greys, her eyes actually look to be almost blue and battered. The Dress is just not Grammys worthy. However, the colour is pretty, but I just wish she covered her cleavage up a little, she looks too cheap-prom-queen for my liking.

All American Hottie

I didn’t even know who Keltie Colleen was, but after strutting herself in this sexy number I’m definitely a fan. I love, love, love it all! Everything from the gorgeous flowy skirt, the jewel encrusted bodice, to the yellow pumps. Her makeup is fairly neutral and I love that she is wearing minimal accessories, less is SO much more and it’s evident that a good haircut/colour does wonders too.  

Cute as a Button

  

Alexa Chung looks adorable in this Valentino number. What made her stand out amongst the rest was that she looks as though she’s thrilled to be there, almost like a little girl who is proud to be wearing pretty party dress. Which makes sense really, Alexa is wearing a pretty dress to the party of all parties! Her sparkly Mary Janes give her look that extra bit of glamour. Oh and she could never go wrong with a powerful red pout.

Grecian Goddess

I know, I know. I need to move on. But girl crushes aside, Taylor looks radiant in this Grecian style White gown by J. Mendal. I know she’s rocked the Grecian style before, but the braided hair teamed with that statement making front fringe is a clear winner if you ask me. Her makeup artists ALWAYS get it right, I wish Kaya Jones’ team would take note, if you’re heavy on the eyes, keep the lips soft and neutral.

 Show Stopper

Everyone knows it’s brave to wear a red frock on the Red carpet, but I think Riri pulled it off! I’m actually Gobsmacked. Rihanna has been known to funk it up in every way possible, in terms of taking fashion-related risks, only being beaten by Lady Gaga and her infamous meat dress.  Regardless, I’m so glad she has come back to her senses and channelled a bit of glamour. With all the makeup and crazy hair colours we tend to forget that Rihanna truly is a pretty young thing.

Oh and P.S. Besides the fact that she annoys me, I have to admit that her music makes for great listening at the gym.  

Fabulous Fairy

One half of the famous Gotye duo, Miss Kimbra looks absolutely stunning. This dress is ridic! Whilst I probably couldn’t deal with the tulle fabric, I think Jamie Lee Major did an epic job at making a unique dress for a girl with a unique dress. Actually I don’t care if I had her banging body and the money to buy it; I would happily sit there excessively scratching my body like a diseased person throughout an awards ceremony. LOVE!

Who were your favoutites? Was I too harsh on Adele? Are you now googling Miss. Keltie Colleen as well? Or maybe that was just me...

Open Letter to Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift: Marry DateEd Sheeran, why don’t you!

It’s nosecret that I have a BIG LESBIAN CRUSH* on Taylor Swift. I have always admiredher gorgeous looks and witty little remarks. Her YouTube videos are quite thecack! Often people ask me why, I as a Wogarella, who is usually such a homie,and counts Boys To Men and Mariah Carey as music’s finest artists happen to bedrawn to Taylor’s music.

There are a number of contributingfactors. But the most essential one is her ability to write honest, songs. I’mnot talking about “Love Story” or “Never Ever Getting Back Together” here. Thegirl has the ability to tell a story, she captures my emotions with thesincere, sometimes harsh words, which in conjunction with a delightful melody,takes me to another place.

And for a while I’ve beencopping it as a self confessed Swiftie, I don’t care. Maybe Taylor enjoysdating man after man. It’s her choice. I’m not here to stick up for her andsadly her moments of despair and sadness only bring her fans more incrediblesongs. It’s pretty selfless if you ask me!

Anyway, I got to thinking… Is there amale equivalent of T-swizzle? I’m not sure; would you judge these male artistson the quality of their voice? Their live performances, perhaps? Or maybe theircute film clips? I know, I can’t rank them based on their looks. But after muchdeliberation, I believe that Mr Ed Sheeren is the boy version of Taylor.

Funnily enough, they are incrediblytalented, hard working and just downright lovable! They've writtenand released a song together; I've posted it for those of you who havebeen living under a rock.

What did you think? Lovely isn’t it?Easy listening.

If I could write Taylor anopen letter I would say his:

Yo Tswizzle,

Love your guts. I saw youlive in Sydney April 2012. You made my year :)

Just a quick note, quitdating these pretty boy twelvie-type boys. Man up and hook in with the world’smost lovable Ranga! Ed Sheeren.

Oh and P.S. Thanks forinspiring my non-existent love life!

Much love,

Wogarella xx

Could you imagine if Miss.Tay-Tay andEd Sheeren were a couple? I can see them now, living happily ever after withthree lanky, ranga kids roaming the streets of Nashville in summer, andavoiding a bashing in wintery Manchester. All I know is the music would befabulous. Whether they went out for a year, or had an eternal romance.

What do you think? Am I a little tooobsessed? Have I listened to too many Taylor/Ed Sheeran songs back to back?

*That was a Mean Girls quote. Not sofunny when you have to explain it, dummy!

ARIA Music Awards 2012

In case you've been living under a rock, last night marked the 26th annual Aria awards! I'm not going to lie; this is my third favourite awards show after only the TV Week Logies and The Teen Choice Awards. Yes I know, shameless. But hey I'm a Swiftie! And doubt I will ever get over listening to Disney music, so it's incredibly fitting.  

Whilst everyone else was sitting back sipping on a glass of wine with their iPhones in hand tweeting their favourite hit and misses on the red carpet, I was sweating it out on the Cross trainer. Attractive, no? Anyways, whilst my heart rate was beating rapidly in between my interval training I managed to make a few mental notes and thought it was best to share my insight below. 

         High Lights:

            Hot To Trot

Seeing Miss Ricki-Lee strut her fine looking ass down the David Jones Red Carpet in the Vibrant Fuchsia Thakoon dress only made me push myself that little bit further. Five stars for the neon!

            Unexpected Beauty

Missy Higgins actually surprised me. Whilst I adore her music, she has in the past opted to wear a pantsuit to the Arias, but I’m glad she left that 90s trend at home because she looked lovely in the printed mini An Ode to No One dress.

            Best Improvement

Mr Reece Mastin gets the thumps up for getting rid of that odd hairstyle he was rocking for so long. Oh and appointed a bonus point for arriving with Home and Away hottie Rhiannon Fish on his arm. 

           Winning. In every way!

To say Gotye absolutely nailed the Aria’s is an understatement. The man of the night gets my vote because I almost didn’t recognise him with the new facial hair. Definitely a great choice!  The barefaced singer almost looks like somebody that I used to know. Ha yes I actually just said that.

            Classiest Lass

Someone I’m not usually fussed by, Miss Erin McNaught really stood out. I know she’s loved by everyone, but I never understood it before. I have a newfound appreciation for the model, and it’s mainly thanks to the stunning emerald gown by Emilio Pucci. LOVE the fact that she has died her hair a few shades darker too! It only further complimented her entire look.  

            Cutes Patootes

And finally the gorgeous Taylor Swift made the crowd go wild as she performed “Trouble”. At this stage of the night I was fortunate enough to speed home from the gym in time to watch Taylor perform with my 6 year old Niece Elissa on my lap. She knew every word. As did I. I honestly couldn’t decipher who enjoyed the performance more!

            Pure Elegance

However, the real showstopper was Mr.Elie Saab, who has once again created a soft, elegant creamcoloured frock with lace side panels which fitted TSwizzle to a... ah, tee. 

           Woman of the Match

Ps Can I just note that I was really expecting DJ Havana Brown to win at least one Aria, I’m genuinely upset for her. She gets Woman of The Match for doinga killer job at Dj-ing throughout the night even after missing out on an award. Oh well, I am sure that with her talent, she will be back to take a gong home next year.

Who were your favourites? Can you tell I have a crazy girl crush on Taylor?
