Here are some photos of Lea Michele at a pre-Emmy event over the weekend. Lea is our Emmys Open Post hostess this year, just because CB and I really couldn’t decide who else to choose. So I’m choosing Lea, or more specifically, Lea’s terrible bangs. Some call it “fringe” but “fringe trauma” sounds like an actual medical condition whereas “bangs trauma” just sounds like a terrible styling choice. In these photos, Lea was attending the Emmy Nominee Celebration sponsored by Variety and Samsung.
It’s worth noting that Lea isn’t an actual Emmy nominee this year. She’s only been nominated for an Emmy once, in 2010. Still, I expect she’ll show up and try to rock the red carpet. She might even bring her new (rented) piece. And I’m sure she’ll be a mess too, just like she is in this Narciso Rodriguez Resort 2015 look. Usually, I love Narciso’s designs but not so much here. You know who could have pulled this off? Naomi Watts.
Anyway, feel free to vent about the Emmys telecast here. Again, we’ll be live-tweeting tonight during the red carpet and we’ll spend most of tomorrow covering Emmys fashion and the actual awards. Here’s CB’s Twitter, Bedhead’s Twitter and my Twitter. The Emmys start at 8 pm on NBC and E! has the red carpet show.

She really looks over spray tanned.
Indeed…a bangs and bronzer cautionary tale.
And fillers too, I suspect. Something’s different.
That dress looks like the top of a swimsuit with a sarong beach cover up from the same “designer” for a skirt. Am I the only one who sees this?
No. I see it. I like mixing patterns, but this doesn’t work especially well.
That is exactly what I came to write. It just doesn’t go, and, girl, enough with the spray tan….yuck!
No, you are not the only one, it was my first thought when I saw this. She looks unattractive pretty much head to toe.
It’s what I thought too.
I think it looks like an llbean swimsuit top and sarong cover-up.
The skirt appears to be a piece of the wallpaper in my parents’ bathroom.
Yeah it’s bad. Mixing patterns requires that they be a bit more differential than the two she’s got going on.
there are some surprisingly bold colors worn on the red carpet; royal blue, indigo, emerald, teal, turquoise, coral, mustard, and more.
Only 4 pages into pictures on Getty and already such an astounding difference with the previous Oscars that were so bland.
Is she wearing a bathing suit with a cover-up?
Hahahahaha
ooh! Melissa McCarthy is wearing a ballgown, and her styling is really nice! Not 100% sold on the dress, but she looks great and is trying something different, so kudos.
I like her look too- it was a good silhouette for her and she looked really pretty.
Who do I have to kill to get some attention around here cries Lea?! Oops, too soon?
So far, January Jones’ styling and Lena Dunham’s everything are my Worst Picks.
Was January’s hair wet? Too much product?
Lena’s camera face (open mouth, smizing eith everything she’s got) is just the worst.
I can deal with that, but that little girl thing she does with her legs bugs the hell out of me.
Sigh, of course BB was taking everything. The other shows didn’t even have a chance.
EDIT: Well obviously this wasn’t meant to be a reply to you. What I meant to say is Lena looks like Village of the Damn turned into a melting cupcake.
Seth Myers is horrible! WTF? How does he have a show?
The OINTB ladies are killing it tonight in the dress department! Laura Prepon’s dress is by far my favorite. It’s just gorgeous.
Sarah Silverman and Retta look super amazing too.
I only came to say WTF is wrong with Lena Dunham’s dress? Dear lord I can’t stand her at all. It’s almost as if she dresses like she’s insecure. It’s hard to explain, but she never owns what she’s wearing.
Poor McConaughey. First Jimmy Kimmel, then this chick…guy can’t catch a break.
I am sorry to have to ask but I missed the beginning. What did Kimmel say about the McConaughey?
He was teasing him, saying as a “movie star” he shouldn’t be on TV and at the Emmys, and to take Julia Roberts with him. He also joked he had put on weight since the oscars.
I’m glad I visited, I forget the Emmys were tonight and it starts so early here on the west coast. I missed the start but I’m happy with Louis CK, Ty Burrell and Jim Parsons winning. I got a kick out of Julia Louis Dreyfus’s bit with Tim Whatley, that tickled me.
Ha, right as I posted, J LD gets the Emmy for Veep, it’s my night, all my favs are cleaning up.
Julia Louis Dreyfus and Bryan Cranston are hilarious together!! Such good comedians. That kiss was EPIC!
Love them both. I could not love JLD more.
Ok. So CBS just straight up bribes the academy, right?! Gaaaah!!! How it is possible their awful shows win any awards?
I never understand that either. And the good wife, their best show, had its best year and didn’t get a nomination!
If Sherlock is actually going to win awards tonight, I demand some suited up CUMBY for the camera to pan to! Seriously though, as much as I love Sherlock, I am genuinely surprised it beat out the Normal Heart.
Right? I can’t believe The Batch isn’t there.
And Freeman just won! Where are the Sherlock boys?!
Freeman is performing Richard III in London and BC is filming something or other so… no show for the guys.
As much as I love Cumby, yes I was really surprised. The Normal Heart was amazing and Bomer reduced me to a quivering wreck, as did Parsons during the memorial scene (I love him but he didn’t deserve to win for BBT again). Ruffalo’s speech (in which he mentions Turing) was incredible.
Whatever you think about Sherlock, come on Freeman didn’t deserve the Emmy for HLV, that episode was all about Cumberbatch. If anything he should have gotten it for Fargo (or for Reichenbach Fall a few years ago).
Julia Roberts LOST. HAhahahahaha.
So happy!!!
It’s especially enjoyable because she so clearly thought she had this one in the bag.
We had a school open house, so I’ve only looked at stills of the red carpet… that being said… I’m reserving judgement until I watch the Red Carpet & Ceremony… but so far… just scrolling through photos, this is my take: Everyone is wearing their sister’s dress. Like, it doesn’t *really* fit and isn’t *really* my style, but I don’t have anything else so *shrug*. Except Camilla Alves. Who looks AMAZING.
Bomer was robbed. Click and goodbye. What a joke.
He was outstanding in that role. Heartbreaking. Mark Ruffalo was pretty damn great, too.
That Prostitute boyfriend Paetez is really dragging down! She used look so classy but now it’s like she is trying to match his Hooker Persona! I guess when you live with trash you start acting like trash! Hopefully she tires of him soon and goes back to being the normal classy Lea!
CUMBY!!!!!!!!! BUT WHERE IS HE?!
Cumby won! A year too late. Mark Ruffalo was robbed, as were the other “The Normal Heart” cast members (save Julia…ugh). And Larry Kramer, to boot. That man deserves ALL the awards just for being a perennial badass.
But now…oooh, Liev! *rowr*
ITA!!!
I agree. Between this and True Detective competing with the last year of Breaking Bad it was a great but competition tough year for tv.
I love Sherlock but it was in not even the same league as these.
Of course Jessica Lange won. She’s good I guess. She looks amazing, I have to say.
Bummed I missed JLD and BC though.
I like this Samberg/Myers bit.
WEIRD AL!!!
Ok this is bad. Sorry Al.
OMG Lena Headey looks unbelievable.
My grandma has this same swimsuit and wrap that she wears poolside on weekends! Lea wears it better than Nana.
If Lea’s dress had sleeves, that would be my grandmother’s “summertime housedress” as she used to say. And she rocked it. Go away Lea,don’t you have to hit up the ATM to pay your date?
awwww, my MeMaw had a lovely outfit like Lea’s – they used to call it “Cruisewear” in the 70s…….bless her heart.
Yay Aaron!
Gwen Stefani looks so…different.
If by different you mean. Botox-y then yes she does.
i didnt even recognize her. she looks kind of like a thinner jean kasem in her cheers days. i assume it was one of those real housewives cast members.
We lost so many great people this year 🙁 Sara Bareilles really did the song justice.
Yes, she was awesome!
Breaking Bad is bringing it home! Yes! I miss that show long time!
Give Kerry Washington an Emmy already!!! And, is it just me or this year the Emmys are kind of… Boring…
Of course Julia Roberts made her presenting duties about herself.
Is it just me, or did the temperature drop 1000 degrees while she was onstage presenting…like, everyone kind of hates her and were suffering through her presentation? People weren’t all smiling, including the nominees. Heh.
Julia Roberts makes everything about herself but that bit about how they’ll have to hug her was pure crap.
She just did not want to believe this was not HER night. Also, her dress was preposterous.
Smoke bowls much, Jules?
Julia Roberts clomps along like a horse in high heels.
I love Gwen Stefani, but wtf did she do to her face? Her silver dress is great tho
What was up with Julie Bowen when the producer just picked up the award for Modern Family for best comedy? Was she having a panic attack or something? Something was really off with her demeanor and facial expressions.
Oh, just you know, histrionic personality disorder.
Breaking Bad sweeps the Emmies! Deservedly for the best show ever on television but many many worthy opponents. Aaron & Bryan have the loveliest speeches of any they seem like such amazing guys. There was so much love among the show runners & the Academy for this astounding accomplishment.
So glad though that Fukinawa won for Best Directing for True D. Although I could not love Mcconaughey and Harrelson more for their absolutely face melting performances, the show was really a mini series not really in the right category with a multi year epic like BB. I LOVE True D though & they both deserve awards.
I promise you that you don’t have to look hard to find a comedy that is funnier than Modern Family. I promise! It’s not that hard. It’s a funny show, but not funny enough to get five wins straight.
I thought The Normal Heart deserved more Emmys. Definitely was moved from start to finish by that movie. Matt Bomer definitely deserved an Emmy to me.
TD was another one that I wish didn’t suffer from the “last season” wins from BB and I love BB. Maybe TD will move to the mini series category next year so Woody and Matt can win (for producing not acting) Emmys. Tough competition this year.
Loved that Coven won some awards because they had a great season.
The ‘In Memoriam” section was especially rough this year with Robin Williams, Maya Angelou, James Garner, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Shirley Temple, Dick Clark, etc. Lost so much talent this year. Definitely teared up and the song “Smile” always makes me cry because its such a bittersweet song.
Overall I thought the Emmys were great this year. Typically this show is a snoozefest for me
Halle looked stunning. Gorgeous dress. It’s too bad they had to rush her through her duties.
Adding, does anyone know who the woman the DM is trying to pass off as Gwen Stefani is? She looks like a blonde Cher from the ’80s.
I think that they should have broadcast the creative Emmys instead. Seemed more interesting than all this.
That dress should never be seen in public!
Yes it should and it has. Lea looks stunning and your negativity is unnecessary.
She looks like a 40 year old Long Island soccer mom who’s trying too hard circa 1991.
