Here are some photos from this weekend’s GLAAD Awards. Let’s start with Lupita Nyong’o, shall we? Lupita wore this Antonio Berardi Pre-Fall 2014 cocktail dress and I totally hate this look. Lupita’s Fashion Darling status has sort of subsided a bit since the Oscars, right? I mean, she has barely walked any red carpets, so I feel bad about saying it, but this is the second outfit in a week that I have not been crazy about (the first was that Giambattista Valli dress with the puffy skirt). I don’t think much of Berardi’s designs for the most part – they’re never horrible, but they’re rarely noteworthy. This is another snoozefest and a lost opportunity for Lupita to look stunning.
Michael Fassbender’s new girlfriend (I still can’t believe it) Naomi Campbell was at the GLAAD Awards too. You would think that Naomi would want to dominate all of the attention, right? Not so much – Naomi was super-jazzed to meet Lupita, and Naomi even Instagram’d this photo:
As for Naomi’s look… I don’t have the designer ID. I love a well-executed animal print, and I do rather like this dress. The afro wig? It’s okay. Naomi has been wearing it a lot lately. It’s her new “thing.”
And the lady of the hour was Jennifer Lopez, who was honored with the Vanguard Award for her years of being a gay icon, and for her years of activism on behalf of the LGBT community. During her speech, Jenny talked about her “cool aunt” who was gay and lived in Manhattan – you can read some quotes here. Jennifer’s dress is Zuhair Murad, one of her favorite designers. I think the dress was a blah choice, but whatever. Casper Smart was there too, and he sat with Jennifer… but she didn’t let him walk the red carpet with her. Which is always funny.

Naomi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like Lupita’s dress, I love her hair, but when will she stop matching her shoes and eyeliner to her dress?
Jennifer’s porn face annoys me.
I really like the whole look, even the shoes. The eyeliner is a bit much.
Jennifer always does werd porn faces. She looks ridiculous.
LOL, I was thinking the same thing about Lupita’s shoes…didn’t notice the eyeliner until you pointed it out. As for JLo, the entire look is rather p*rny, and don’t get me started on the spider-eyelashes, yeesh.
It’s a game i’ve never lost.
On any Lupita thread we only see her face. You absolutely know the color of her dress from what color eyeshadow she has on. And without fail her clutch will always match her shoes.
I don’t think she’s found her style yet. She’s all over the place and too matchy matchy.
I’m all for covering great celeb looks, but Lupita is a rare hit.
I think her style IS the matchy matchy. Don’t throw virtual apples at me or anything please but I’ve always been a matchy matchy girl too and hate when celebritie’s clothes and shoes don’t match.LOL. I never got got that. So I thought it was a rich person thing. At work, all the professional women match their clothes and shoes.
I think Lupita looks beautiful. That picture of Lupita and Naomi is priceless, even Naomi Campbell has fallen under her spell.
See, I really like this dress. I saw another angle of it and loved it. The shoes…eh. Naomi lokks great but I don’t like the wig. and Jen needs to do something about those caterpillers abover her eyes.
does Lopez EVER shut her mouth while posing?
I find her so tacky.
you are not the only one.
She looks like she is about to sneeze on these photos!
Bless you, J-Lo.
Lupita looks lovely. Her outfit is neither boring nor wow, imo. What she wore to the MTV awards last night though was pretty amazing.
I can’t believe I ever thought Casper Smart was hot. He should keep the shades on.
Yes, the outfit Lupita wore to the MTV awards was awesome!!!! This is outfit is nice, just doesn’t have the wow factor. I think Naomi looks awesome, and I am loving the afro! JLO always seems to wear a variation of the same out fit, same hair, same makeup…she is gorgeous, but she needs a stylist! And poor Casper looks like he can’t breathe in that suit…
Jennifer and Naomi both have rotting portraits of themselves in an attic somewhere. They are ageless.
Love it! I was thinking the same thing! Dorian Gray…both of them.
Lupita is stunning and I love the whole look. Queen Naomi pretty much looks flawless all the time so no surprises there. Jennifer looks good, I don’t know how I feel about the dress, she rarely hits it out of the park for me, she’s a gorgeous woman with a great bod but I’m never really amazed by anything she wears but she looks hawt as per usual.
Casper needs to GTFO out of this post, hate seeing him pop up anywhere.
Naomi look AMAZIIIING. Lupitas dress boring but nice and I pretty much say this everytime when it comes to her but she needs to stop it with pointy pumps for every outfit. JLO .. is just JLO but with spider legs as lashes
OMG JLO, there are tarantulas attacking your eyes!
Lupita looks pretty, don’t love the dress but it’s not terrible. Naomi, crazy as she may be, looks great.
Naomi looks hot! I love the wig. And the dress too. I dont like Lupita’s dress though. She looks meh.
Why is Lupita making matching shoes with her clothes (or eyeshadow) a thing? It does not look very good.
Jenny from the Block can do no wrong. I’m a fangirl and I think she looks incredible.
Naomi looks fabulous. Lupita needs to stop using the matchy pointy shoes and probably grow her more hair. Jlo looks lovely but her eye lashes are too much and her hither look is getting boring.
Oh my god. Casper Smart thinks he’s better than all of us! Look at the smugness on his face!!!!!!! His douchery is out of control now.
I hate J.lo spider lashes. She looks Kardashianesque.
Noami looks awesome. Lupita’s stylist went went good pre awards season to terrible. I loved her Intro speech about the lgbt community. She intrigues me when she speaks.
J LO is such a beautiful woman but it she needs to close her mouth.
Wow another “Lupita attends an award show…what is she wearing??” Is it in her future to be a model and/or fashion icon? If not this is disappointing and a reality check about her future as an actress. Why is she not being booked up with work? I pretty much know the answer…crazy.
They all look good, except for JLo’s mascara thing.
jlo’s legs look phenomenal
Lupita’s dress looks cheap, and her hairdo is unflattering.
Jennifer Lopez is so pretty and has such flawless skin. She wears waaaaay too much make up and she doesn’t even need to. She never did. I think now it just ages her, and she is so pretty.
Meh – this outfit is boring, but I don’t hate it as much as that monstrosity she wore to the MTV Movie Awards.
LOL @ the open-mouth pose from JLO.
JLO is also honored for being the exec producer of The Fosters, about a gay family. She is flawless!
