DA BACHELORETTE IS BACK!!

The BEST and the most CRINGE-worthy Moments from The Bachelorette Premiere 



Like Bachelorette contestant Dean so kindly reminded us last night - "once you go black you don't go back" (LOL womp womp for Dean, who originally got a lot of social media backlash for that comment).  But after being re-introduced to Rachel's fabulousness on Monday night's premiere of The Bachelorette, it may be safe to say that America def feels the same way.

The 31 (some debatable) contestants aside, Rachel is just PERFECT. Like, I'm also trying to date her. 

I mean she's smart, she's hot, she's mature, she can play basketball...



She's got a great since of Bachelorette premiere dresses...




BUT despite her fab Rachelness, we're still questioning some of the decisions she made on the highly anticipated Bach premiere last night.

There were some great moments and some hot guys, and some not so great moments and some not so hot guys. But luckily for you, I'm here to break it all down so you don't have too! So, let's take a look at some of the BEST and the well, most of the MIZ moments from last night's Bachelorette premiere.

DA GURLS



1. Rachel's Squad



If you didn't know, now you know that Rachel has a pretty aggressive Bach squad rooting for her. Several of Rachel's besties from last season including dolphin obsessed Alexis, Bachelor finalist Raven, and the controversial, Corinne. The ladies sat down last night to give Rach some Bachelorette advice even though we're pretty convinced every single on of these ladies is heading to Paradise... and prob won't be a Bachelorette LOL. But hey! They're still fun right?



DA NORMAL BOYZ


1. PETER

I don't know about you but I am so HERE FOR PETER. Why?! Because not only was he the first one out of the limo and one of the few guys not to do anything weird and crazy, he looks SO good in a suit AND he's basically the white version of Rachel with his swag gap tooth smile LOL. Basically, I'm so here for Peter and Rachel and their future interracial, gap-toothed babies. Aren't you?!!






2. BYRAN 



Well, I want to say "ooo la la" but I guess the correct phrase for Bryan and his Latin American self would be "aye, ye, ye!" I don't know about you, but I've always had a thing Latin men, I mean who doesn't? They're romantic, they can dance, they speak Spanish to you when they get out of the limo LOL.



Rachel was totally feeling his Latin flavaaa especially when the chiropractor said he was uhmm good with his hands....but hot Latiness aside, I think we all agree that Bryan's kissing was likeee a little TOO MUCH. Yuck.






3. JOSIAH



Ugh, take about a heart-wrenching life story. If you don't recall, this is the guy whose brother hung himself when he was little, so damaged by that at a super young age, he got into a lot of trouble and started committing crimes, until one lawyer dude decided to give him a chance and BOOM he inspired him and now Josiah is a lawyer. UGH AMAZING.



I mean I was totally rooting for this guy, cause he initially seemed pretty sweet, but later on in the night he got a little cocky and that's never cute. Like BE HUMBLE!!






4. KENNY



So, when I first saw Kenny, you know the aggressive wrestler guy with the 13-year-old daughter, I was like OKAY nahh. Not feeling it. I also thought he was gonna body slam Rachel down to the ground when he got out of the limo LOL. BUT after they're little chat inside, he seems SUPER sweet AND he's freaking HILARIOUS. Rooting for him to stay for a bit.





5. ERIC

This guy. SO, I think this guy is such a cutie. The 29-year-old personal trainer is def a hottie, but the odd thing about him is that he looks SO young!! Like he kinda looks like he just walked off the high school football field? But at the same time he's like really tall, so it's a tad confusing. I'm def thinking he's gonna last for a while though...




DA EXTRA BOYZ



1. The penis guy who plays the drums 


SO, can we talk about how NO ONE is talking about how Blake E., yes walked in as the "aspiring drummer" with a full marching band, BUT he was also the guy with the intro video that was all about how he like loves the gym, loves to have sex, and LOVES HIS PENIS?!! NOT CASUAL. Needless to say, the jury is still out on him.



2. The tickle monster 


OH BOY. So, tickling a girl without her permission is one thing, but the fact that the so called "tickle monster" is actually a doctor who would rather be called the "tickle monster" on national TV is another thing. I don't know what is more concerning...





3. The guy who came dressed as a penguin



Apparently Rachel has a thing for penguin's but like something tells me this guy is better suited for Bachelor dolphin lover, Alexis Waters.





4. Adam and his creepy voodoo doll??



I LITERALLY HAVE ZERO WORDS. And I have another negative zero words for the fact that he was given a rose last night. Like, COME ON Rach!!


Also why his creepy little Adam Jr doll aka "AJ," FRENCH?!!!! Like he had subtitles!! AHHHH! I just CANNOT.








5. WHAABOOM



Last but not least, #WHABOOM. Good God. So this is what happened when Lucas aka "Whaboom" stepped out of the limo...



THEN #WHABOOM walks into the mansion and after terrifying Rachel outside of the house, he proceeds to terrify all the guys inside the house...



It's fair to say that Diggy was all of us when we relized that #WAHBOOM was more than just a catch phrase, it's an actual terrifying human being.


THENN #WHABOOM brought the megaphone (which is had already used from the limo to talk about his lopsided testicles...EW), and we were all like...



AND THEN when #WHABOOM ended up getting a rose and we were ALL likee...



Jesus Christ.



But in addition to Whaboom getting a rose, Rach also gave a rose both IGGY and DIGGY?!! But like NOT too hottie half Asian Blake K.?!!!



At least now there's a serious social media movement to get Blake K to Paradise... 






So, I say that's a win win.


After The Bachelorette aired on ABC last night, talk show host and Bachelor super-fan, Jimmy Kimmel picked his top three finalists and the winner for this season which he believes to be personal trainer Eric, Latin Bryan, and the winner to be PETERRRR. DUH.



Can't say that I don't fully agree with Jimmy's picks. Welp, LET RACHEL'S SEASON COMMENCE with a #WHABOOM!! LOLOL

MET Gala 2017 Worst Dressed

  Worst Dressed a la Met Gala 


Welp, here they are. The worst of the most MIZ dressed celebs from Monday night's Met Gala. We shared who we though SLAYED the carpet on fashion's biggest night, but here are all the people who definitely missed the mark. Just because Comme des Garcon is a little out of the box, doesn't mean people had to show up looking less enticing than well, a box. 

Here's our list of the worst dressed peeps at the 2017 gala! 


(Miz) Madonna in Moschino. 

So, Madonna is the Queen, for sure. But, for some reason, at the Met Gala, Madonna either has her ass out OR she's wearing a diamond grill like she's a member of Three Six Mafia. So, while we have to honor Madonna for being - Madonna, this G.I.Joe costume with detachable cameo net is just waaaay to costume-y for us. And were not talking Katy Perry Met Gala costume-y, we're talking Party City costume-y. But one thing that was pretty fly was the fact that she had rose in her canteen. HELL YAS guurrl. You earn brownie points for that. Drink the bad fashion sorrows away!




Sofia Sanchez Barrenechea in Comme des Garcon. 

Umm. Ummm. Ummmmmm. Yeah, all I have to say about this look is that Sofia ova here WISHES she looked like what Rihanna looked like in CDG.  But for some reason, and I can't quite put my finger on it, Sofia doesn't look half as good as Rihanna AND she's showing like way more skin. I couldn't figure out where Ri Ri's other arm was and she STILL looked better. YIKES. Also those suede booties look exactly like the booties I used wear out to the bar in college. So, just no.





Caroline Kennedy in Comme des Garcons. 

Ugh, now we LOOOVE Caroline Kennedy. I mean HELLO bow down to OG of the Kennedy fam. And we LOVE that Caroline decided to go ALL OUT for this year's gala by wearing the honored designer buuuut, sadly, Caroline just isn't really a CDG girl. I love that she tried and I love that she really wanted honor Rei, buuut I would have been okay just seeing JFK's daughter in some kinda awesome gown. Is that just me?





Claire Danes in Monse. 

Ugh, Claire. The Homeland actress decided to do a complete and I mean complete 180 from her  Met Gala look last year, to well, this. She went from a glow in the dark Cinderella sensation, to this confusing trouser look. Now, I understand that the deconstructed blouse is totally in style, and I want to appreciate the look BUT instead of looking Comme des Garcons trendy, she looks more like an extra from Pirates of the Caribbean. Sorry, it's just too messy for me. Plus her make up and hair styling is also ALL wrong. Last year she was glowing (literally) and this year, well, she looks like Captain Sparrow's wife. Is she in the new sequel? LOL. 




Karlie Kloss in Brandon Maxwell. 

We all know Karlie is a beautiful girl. Whatever. I don't care what you say, the model did NOT serve us ANYTHING in this boring suit dress. Is it ugly? No, but it doesn't really look tailored to her body and also I am not a fan of her new hair cut. It kind of looks like a lopsided wig. And if she was so set on wearing this hair, she should have worn a waaay more dramatic outfit because this whole look is doing literally nothing for her model frame. Her legs are the best part of her outfit but this isn't the LEG GALA!!!! Ugh, miz. 




Paris Jackson in Calvin Klein. 

Ugh, so I hate putting Paris on the worst dressed list because I am SO HERE for Paris Jackson. I love ALL the model moves she's been making, I think she's so edgy, chill and cool. I'm def here for her. BUT, after her super hot, channeling Madonna Harper's Bazaar cover, I was expecting a lot more from Paris on this carpet. I know this is her first Met Gala, but you would think you'd want to do something a little bit more exciting than just a simple little black dress that I'm pretty sure I could wear to work and no one would still say anything about it because it's that basic. The Met Gala is the time to DO MORE not less. Come on Parisssss. 




Hailee Steinfeld in Vera Wang. 

This outfit actually gives me so much anxiety. Why? Because there are TOO MANY THINGS GOING ON. First you have the shoulders showing, then you have this high-chested peplum (which should be around the waste if it's a peplum), THEN she's wearing these like hot-pant shorts that are covered by a train, but are open in the front with this middle slit - not to mention the oversized sleeves. WOW. Basically, to sum it up - she looks like trying to pull of this modern day samurai/military sergeant look and I am just NOT here for it. At all.







Mandy Moore in Michael Kors. 

And the other boring black dress award goes to Mandy Moore! Mandy may have slayed in her stunning Golden Globes red carpet look, BUT this black dress does not cut it. But even though her red carpet look didn't exactly blow us away, her hair and make up is ON POINT. She channeled Rihanna with the illuminated lavender eyes and with her deep brows and glowing skin, her makeup was really her BEST attribute of the night. So we're giving you serious credit for that Mandy. Solid try.






Thandie Newton in Monse. 

Like Danes, Thandie also chose designer Monse for this year's gala and I have to say, Monse wasn't a great choice for either of them. Ugh, y'all know I LOVE Thandie. I think she's the greatest, but I hate this look. Not only does it NOT emulate the theme at all, she looks like a Mexican cha-cha dancer. The over-the-top floral head dress is one thing, but then the bright red, drawstring dress is like a whole 'nother thing. Now, does she look good in her slit? Yes. But I hate the one should thing and what I reeeally hate, which I think ruins the look further is her makeup. AHHH. Like WHY is her smokey eye SOO smokey?!! She looks like she's celebrating Day of the Dead! I just can't. It's so miz.





Evan Rachel Wood in Altuzarra. 

Welp, another West World flop. So, I don't necessarily think Evan's full look is awful. I mean she always wears Altuzarra on the carpet and has a thing for pants, so this much I expected. But it's the styling that's all wrong. Similar to her co-star Thandie, Evan's eye makeup is a nightmare. Literally. She looks like those little skeleton characters from A Nightmare Before Christmas LOL. I mean, I know she was once married to Marilyn Manson, but that doesn't mean she needs to show up to the Met Gala looking like him.







Hailey Baldwin in Carolina Herrera. 

So, Emmy Rossum wore Herrera and SLAYed the Met carpet. BUT Hayley, ehhh she looks like a confused ballerina cupcake. I can't decide which one. Now, anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE tulle and I love crop tops, so together that should be an awesome match right? Well, not here. First all of, the awkward leather crop looks waaay to small for Hailey's boobs, like it looks like its going to fall off, and the tulle skirt looks like tiers of cupcake holders. And the vintage head piece has literally NOTHING to do with the look at all. I wish the look was just a full DRESS with NO crop top, no choker and NO head piece. Then it would be awesome. But it would still have NOTHING to do with the theme.



Chrissy Teigen in Marchesa. 

Woof. Oy. So many sounds because I have SO many emotions about this look. I LOVE Chrissy and Marchesa is like my fashion bible when it comes to red carpet looks but this look is SO over the top that it's just a MESS. Like a straight up MESS. There is way to much going on. Every inch of the dress has something different to the point where you eyes are just sooo stressed out from looking. The Cut even called this look "a blizzard of confusion," because it looks like a Syracuse night in February. LOL. It's just bad. Georgina Chapman, Marchesa's chief designer, looked UNREAL and in her own design and essentially showed up  the celebrities that she dressed. WOOF.






Bella Hadid in Alexander Wang. 

Okay, so is this an ugly outfit? No. In fact, a profile view of this look is freaking hot. Bella looks UNREAL. And the back? The back detailing is SO beautiful. But from the front, I don't know, it kinda just looks like sparkly pjs that are too tight in the crotch. YUP. I would have LOVED this look ten times more if it was just a slinky dress. Kinda like Kendall's or something.  I think Bella was just trying reeeally hard to give the finger to her ex-beau, The Weekend, who was clearly head-over-heels in love with his date, Selena Gomez. I think Bella looks hot from the side, but the full body view just looks awkward to me. If I had to pick a winning Hadid for the night, it goes to older sis Gigi. 



Then there were all these celebrities who showed in just pretty ass dresses as if it was like...the Oscars! NEWS FLASH ladies! It's the MET GALA. We expected cooky, fun and unexpected, not pretty and basic. YUP, Imma about to call y'all out and giving you some serious side eye...




Jessica Chastain in Prada. 





Gwyneth Paltrow in Calvin Klein. 





Kate Hudson in Stella McCartney. 




Giselle in Stella McCartney. 




Now, these are ALL fabulous gowns.

I mean Jessica looks stunning, she looks like Belle and it looks great, but I mean I don't remember what she wore to the Oscars, but she should've worn that.

And Gwen, we ALL know she looks FAB in pink, I mean hellooo she won her Oscar in pink, but this dress is just to basic for the Met.

Kate - Kate always SLAYS in white. And I'm totally feeling her white top knot, buuuut compared to what she wore last year,  there's NO comparison.

And as for Giselle...well, this is OBV an UNREAL dress, but it's boring. It's likee she didn't even feel the need to dress up for the theme and I'm just not about that. I don't care if your husband has FIVE rings - DRESS UP WOMAN!

SORRY LADIES. Better luck next year!!

MET GALA 2017 Best Dressed

Best Dressed a la MET Gala

On Monday night, models and celebrities alike celebrated the 1st of May in Met Gala fashion! The creme de la creme of the fashion and entertainment world gathered on the grand stairs of the Met Museum for the annual fashion gala or the fashion Oscars, in other words. This year's theme was honoring the innovation of avant garde designer Rei Kawakubo for Comme des Garçons, who is known for his over the top, deconstructed-wearable-but-not-so-wearable-designs. Some celebrities took fashion risks to fully embrace the evening's theme and some decided to big or go home by daring to wear a CDG design. And even though, CDG is known for being kinda cooky, some people embraced the theme a lot better than others and we're taking a look at all the Met Gala celebs who got it right!

Here's our list of the 2017 Met Gala BEST DRESSED! 


Zendaya in Dolce & Gabbana. 

YASSS Z!!! This was one of my FAVORITE looks of the night, not to mention probably one of the BEST Met Gala looks in a long ass time. The budding fashion diva gave us serious LYFE in this stunningly vibrant D&G number. And can we talk about her hair for a second???! HERE. FOR. IT. Z's afro-fabulous hair and bold orange lips means: no accessories necessary. BOOM.  Zendaya is basically giving me Rihanna circa 2015 in this outfit and I think she's just the hands down winner. GOOD NIGHT.




Rihanna in Comme des Garcons.

But then of course you have the fashion maven herself, Rihanna. Now, Ri Ri hasn't been on the Met carpet since she literally WOWed the world with her grand yellow ensemble back in 2015. So, naturally, Ri was gonna show UP on the carpet in full on style, making up for that missed time. And being the edgy ass diva that Ri Ri is, the singer was one of the FEW celebs who dared to wear CDG on the carpet. Others tried to embrace the theme and Rihanna just straight up WORE IT. CHECK PLEASE?!!

Beauty note: Ri's illuminated pink cheeks and eyes are literally EVERYTHING.




Zoe Kravitz in Oscar de la Renta. 

Let's talk about Big Little Lies for a second. Zoe is a LITTLE girl, with a BIG sense of fashion, and when the girl walks a red carpet - she ain't serving no LIES. OKAY?? Can I get an 'Amen sister friend" for my lady in pink?! The young actress/singer was serving us Marilyn Monroe in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, with a little more Kravitz edge and there's absolutely nothing wrong with this look.

Beauty note: Her quaffed blonde hair with her pale pink makeup is just flawless.


(I promise this is not a solely #BlackGirlMagic post...)



Katy Perry in Masion Margiela by John Galliano.

SO, I don't care what people have to say about this look. Whether you happen to think it's crazy or ugly, we're just ignoring you because not only was Katy the co-chair for the evening's Gala, she NAILED the CDG theme perfectly in this bold, custom Galliano red gown. The outfit, which the singer described as wearable art, has so much detail and so many little pieces that if you don't appreciate it's intricate craftsmanship, then you're missing something. We're in LOVE with ALL the RED. The red veil is the most fierce thing ever and behind the veil is Katy's unreal makeup with accents for blue and red shimmer. RED is the new black people. Get used to it.




Kate Bosworth in Tory Burch.

At first glance, you would not think of this look as a Tory Burch creation. Like, at all. Because when you think of Tory you think of like preppy, pink and blue tennis skirts, and like golden T's everywhere LOL. But stop right there! Tory surprised us all and dressed Bosworth in this totally chic fanned out, black gown. Now, Kate looks good in just about anything, but  her dark red lip and slicked back hair is super vampy, different and so fierce. The diamond necklace, which hangs down her back also adds some softness to the dark ensemble, but all of it together is perfection.




Blake Lively in Versace. 

Welp, we already know that the couple goals for the evening went to Blake and hubby Ryan Reynolds,  but let's give Blake some  solo time in the spotlight and just take in this intricate gold and blue embellished gown. There are like SO many things to say that I can't even form words about what to say. So, just, Bravo Blake. Bravo.





Emmy Rossum in Carolina Herrera. 

Yaaaas Emmy! I mean, the girl just walked into the room, or the tent should we say, nailed her pose, swung her side train around and was like BOOM BITCHES - I'M HERE. And we were like YAS EMMY we're HERE FOR YOU TOO. Need I say more? Nah.

P.S. She's wearing pants...NAILED IT.




Allison Williams in DVF.

Okay, at first glance, you see this dress and you're like oookay, so she's wearing a white dress with a black corset. Big whoop? WELL IT IS indeed a big whoop because if you look closer at the details, you will then seen that the entirety of the white part of the gown is SEQUINED, and the back of the gown has some complex draping that is just so elegant. I LOVE this look. Everything from the Allison's new bold, blonde hair, to the red lip and the dazzling, long earrings. Allison may NOT be the white girl you wanna go home with for the weekend (LOL Get Out reference - and if you haven't seen Get Out yet WHO IS YOU?!), but I'd take her home if she was wearing this...




Laura Osnes in Cristian Siriano.

This little Broadway beauty made her Met Gala debut last night and she NAILED in this awesomely fabulous custom Cristian Siriano gown. If we're ranking all the BIG dresses from the night, I give her and Zendaya 1 and 2 because these ballroom numbers are so grand, so fierce, and so elegant. They command the room, or in this case, the staircase, and it's just so freaking baller.




Rose Byrne in Ralph Lauren.

Red is the new black ladies and gentlemen. If you didn't believe me the first time, I think you'll believe me now. This BEST thing about Rose's look is that this gown is probably one of the most unconventional Ralph Lauren looks, like, ever. It's SO not RL to the point where you're like - are you SURE that's RL? But it is, and its spectacular. It fits her like a dream and while it's a big gown, the tulle fabric is actually quite simple. Flawlessly done Rose.

Beauty note: Her vintage inspired hair and the bold red lip just tops of her look exquisitely.




Kendall Jenner in La Perla.

Well, leave it to Kendall J to simply wear some lingerie on the Met gala red carpet lol. JK. The model, who is currently the face of La Perla decided to rock the lingerie designer on the carpet and I think she it really well. Now grant it she's def just wearing a lace, thong bustier, covered up with a bedazzle dress type thing, but I mean, that's basically what it is and it's freaking cool. And hey, as long as she didn't accessorize her look with a Pepsi, that's all that matters right? LOLz.




Gigi Hadid in Tommy Hilfiger.

I think it's safe to say that Tommy Hilfiger surprised us with this totally NOT Tommy look on Gigi last night. I LOVE this ensemble. Gigi's hair isn't my favorite thing in the world, BUT the styling of the gown with the netted thigh highs and sheer shoes is just PERFECTION. I love this look also because it embraces the CDG theme in combining the wearable with the avant-garde very well. This might be my favorite non big dress look on the carpet.




Riley Keough in Louis Vuitton.

The granddaughter of Elvis is hot as f*ck. If you haven't watched The Girlfriend Experience, you should because she's just....I mean, I legit have no words. Bottom line though is - I love her and I love this look. She is serving us the Madonna look that Madonna didn't. (I mean let's be real Madonna's look was A MESS). But yes, love the juxtaposition between the Riley's tossed back hair and fresh face with the harshness of the red and black (remember ladies, red IS the new black), and the chains. LOOOVE IT. Elvis would be proud.





Emily Ratajkowski in Marc Jacobs.

We all know that Emily is just gorgeous, and she could have literally worn nothing last night and looked amazing, but I LOVE this dress because it reminds of this beautifully embellished, wearable version of Van Gough's 'Starry Night.'

Beauty note: Emily kept her makeup simple dabbling with the peach hues, but made the make up cohesive with a bold blue liner. Flawless.





Sophia Richie in Topshop. 

I'm literally HERE for ANY thing ANY Richie does. From Nicole, to Lionel to Sophia, I got ya'll. Nicole's younger sister looked white hot in this custom, metallic number. It's sexy, yet elegant and I'm kinda down with the fact that her dress mimics her hair a little bit. The diamonds, the dripping chest chain, I'm into ALL of it.



So, these are all the ladies who SLAYED the Met carpet in our opinion, BUT the question is, if the original creator of SLAY (aka Beyonce), didn't attend this year's ceremony then likeeee did the Met Gala EVEN HAPPEN?!!

LOL!!

But seriously...did it?
