I started my blog in 2007 with the motto “Wear What You Want” and, accordingly, I’ve avoided naming “worst-dressed” people. I’ve decided to draw the line on someone’s look just a few times, and this is one of those moments: My worst-dressed at the 2022 Grammy Awards is the Recording Academy itself, which covered itself…

The winner of my Best Dressed/Wear What You Want award for the 2020 Grammys is Billy Porter and his fabulous mechanical hat! Yeah, I said 2020. I know the 2021 Grammys ceremony was on last night, and I’ll get to that eventually, but I’m a wee bit behind! There was a lot going on when…

There have been many more-spectacular Super Bowl performers, starting with Michael Jackson, whose 1993 appearance permanently changed the halftime show from a snack/drink/bathroom break to a must-see…
My “Almost” Best Dressed at the 2018 Grammys Are …
There’s so much to be said about the 2018 Grammys — who won, who should have won, the way Recording Academy president Neil Portnow said more women would win if they just worked harder (fuck you, Neil, the average woman works twice as hard as a dude like you). I’m going to have to save…
Beyoncé Should Be a Grammys Wake-Up Call
I haven’t stopped thinking about the Grammys since they aired just over a week ago — and by “the Grammys” I mean “Beyoncé.” Embed from Getty Images The show belonged to Beyoncé — now the most nominated female artist in Grammy history — even though she only won two of her nine categories: best urban…
