He's ready...are you?
And Oscar probably isn't the only one preparing for the 79th Annual Academy Awards show this evening by spray painting his face...whether the stars look as good as the statue after doing so is the question.
WAYW is scoping the style scene on Hollywood's most glamorous night. Can you feel the pressure???

Grammys from "The Couch"...The Rundown
JOHN LEGEND
L: Oh, I love Johnny...but not the after 6 open bowtie look
WAYW: Why not....he's John Legend!
B: I actually like this look...it's got swagger.
L: It just looks sooo contrived... I'm thinkin they could have added some chest hair too and rolled him down the red carpet sitting at his piano singing "MAKE ROOM for my love!"...
FERGIE
WAYW: Those SHOES
L: Those shoes are hot!
B: it makes the outfit
WAYW: What kind of silver would you call this?
L: It's a gun metal - we've got gun metal silver.
WAYW: She looks like she just might shoot somebody too...maybe we should move on.
PINK
B: Ok, Pink looks good.
WAYW: So little to say when you actually like something, eh? Ha ha...
NE-YO
B: Ahh, Ne-Yo
WAYW: I love Ne-Yo but....
B: "Jacket by Nintendo"
WAYW: Very Tetris-inspired, yes.
B: See, he looks like he got a bunch of friends to dress him...and he just showed up in a white dress shirt and dress pants like, "Help me out, guys!"
L: He kinda looks like the unibomber with those sunglasses...I love Ne-Yo though
WAYW: Way to clean that one up.
LUDACRIS
B: Good suit. Classic grey. Ludacris Grows Up!
WAYW: This is the way to do gray.
B: Get the designer, please
WAYW: And the blue shirt combo...love it.
B: Good shoes. Good tie.
L: Nice cut on the suit, falls well on the shoes...alright Luda, you are looking good!
WAYW: And the word of the evening is...
PUSSYCAT DOLLS
L: I like #3 and #5.
B: No, no, no, no, no aaaand no.
WAYW: They match then...
L: They do NOT match.
WAYW: They do when they're all unflattering dresses...
B: I'm having a childhood flashback.
WAYW: Oh!!! They totally bit Jem's style...
MARY J. BLIGE
L: Mary looks good.
B: I like the top...I like her hair up too.
WAYW: We got sequins people!
B: And I like that it's belted instead of sashed.
WAYW: She looks comfortable with herself, just beautiful...I love you Mary!!!!!!...but I could be biased.
Grammys from "The Couch": Christina Ricci
CHRISTINA RICCI IN CHOPARD JEWELRY
B: Oh, thank GOD!
WAYW: She's been looking much better now a days.
L: I like the dress...it has character. Especially the trim...what is that, croc?
WAYW: Sequins...your favorite.
B: It bodes well for her that she's not doing the same thing as everyone else
WAYW: Yes. Go Christina!
L: The pattern threw me off at first -
B: But it's daring enough for the Grammys
WAYW: She is proof that a stylist is a good investment.
B: While everyone else looks like they went shopping together at Macy's...it's the Grammys!
Grammys from "The Couch": Natasha Bedingfield
NATASHA BEDINGFIELD IN GEORGES CHAKRA
WAYW: Who is she?
B: Singer...you know all those songs you hear on the WB? That's her...
L: Her dress says, 80s futuristic.
B: So the theme of this year's Grammy fashion is "Movies Mariah Carey Shouldn't Have Done."
WAYW: Ohhh...What is "Glitter," Alex.
B: It's killing me...I don't like it, boring.
WAYW: Tough crowd! I dont know if she has enough fabric on top though...one wrong move..
L: The dress looks like a Betsy Johnson reject.
WAYW: She looks like Betsy Johnson's mini me?
Grammys from "The Couch": Justin Timberlake
JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE IN PRADA
WAYW: Did he mean to match the backdrop?
B: Return of the Shiny Suit.
WAYW: He looks like a grown up...I like gray for an event like this.
B: He looks like Dick Clark's mini me
WAYW: He's bringing corporate back!
B: I don't know if a glittery tie would work for corporate.
L: I think the backdrop was a clash he couldn't have expected.
WAYW: We'll blame it on the backdrop then.
B: He still looks like Dick Clark's mini me.
Grammys from "The Couch": Carrie Underwood
CARRIE UNDERWOOD IN MONIQUE L'HUILLIER and BEAUDRY JEWELRY
L: Another American Idol sucess
WAYW: Those earrings!
B: (closer look at jewlery) "You sing country, huh?"
WAYW: That ring's so big i have to give it a separate greeting
B: She's like Glenda the Good Witch of De Beers (diamonds)
WAYW: Hello Mr. Chopard.
B: Glitter seems to works for her...on the dress, on her skin, on her ears/hand/wrist...
WAYW: Can we go back to the other photo again...this dress isn't all that spectacular.
L: Just saw the dress - I see the Glenda resemblance...all she needs is a wand.
WAYW: But it wouldn't have gone with all that jewelry.
L: Yeah, whatever...I'm signing up for A.I. next season, dammit.
Grammys from "The Couch": Scarlett Johansson
SCARLETT JOHANSSON IN MONIQUE L'HUILLIER
B: Who is she wearing?
WAYW: Monique L'Huillier
B: Oh...I would've expected better from both of them.
L: Her shoes look like cow hoofs
B: Fine for a cocktail party...not so much for the red carpet
WAYW: Not a good look for her shape
L: Why is she at the grammys?
B: She looks great for drinks at The Standard...which is where she was probably headed.
Grammys from "The Couch": Vanessa Minnillo
VANESSA MINNILLO IN KEVAN HALL
WAYW: I like it! She looks nice...
L: I am a fan of silver...overall though, it's a win
B: Does nothing for her shape...overall, a bore. (yawns and puts on sunglasses)
49th Annual Grammy Awards: On the Red Couch
Welcome to another installment of WAYW's Red Carpet fashion recap...
Since I can't be on the red carpet myself tonight, I'm coming to you live from my red couch...and I have some special guests with me. B suffers from chronic bag-envy and L is excited about the comeback of rhinestones and sequins. They also happen to be my roommates and none of us really want to the dishes right now so...
Here goes it!
Pre-Grammy Jam
Clive Davis' Pre-Grammy Party at the Beverly Hilton last night drew attendees of various musical genres...and generations.
Hot young artist Ciara kept it simple in a form-fitting mini, making it easy (or difficult, maybe) to notice her cognac diamond bracelet and diamond solitaire ring by Chopard.
A new and improved Whitney Houston, who stepped out with her dear friend and host of the pre-Grammy event to be at, also sparkled in Chopard with cushion-cut diamond drop earrings as elegant as her ensemble.
Go 'head Whitney! We're rootin' for ya! Just...let's hope Ciara's affinity for Chopard is the only thing she'll have in common with the Ex-Mrs. Bobby Brown...

A Friend In Ross
Actress Tracee Ellis Ross was the star of (the Hollywood premiere of) Tyler Perry's new movie, "Daddy's Little Girls" with this David Meister citrus satin sheath dress with twist accent.
While not everyone can pull off such a colorful and shiny number, Ross' bright personality (and smile) matches the outfit perfectly...
(here with director Tyler Perry)
So much so, it makes you want to just hang out and be one of her "Girlfriends" too!
Move over Gabrielle!
Tracee, let's do lunch...

Never Leave Home Without It...
Valley girl Katharine McPhee has a new love in her life, and his name is Daniel...
Swarovski, that is. The American Idol star made three stops (in photos: Marc Jacobs Fashion Show, TRL, Isaac Mizrahi Fashion Show respectively) last Monday while in New York, with three different looks accompanied by one large clear pave crystal "Apollon" ring by the famed jeweler.
Forget your Visa, you'll be set with a Swarovski!

Disappearing Diamonds?
Actress Gong Li commanded the red carpet Wednesday night at the New York premiere of "Hannibal Rising" with the fierceness of a cheetah that inspired her form-fitting gown.
But it was the platinum-set diamond Chopard earrings that grabbed photographers' attention .
It was a happy reunion with director Peter Webber - although I can't tell if he's laughing or squinting from the glare of the almost 73 carats decorating her ears.
I guess it was the latter because Li continued the evening without them...
Jay Z to self: Did someone just dim the lights?
With Webber promising to bring his shades next time, the celebration continued. No hard feelings I guess!
