Adrianna Costa Hits The Red Carpet


EMMYS OBSERVATIONS

Hello dear friends and fans of crazydaysandnights. The Great Enty, at his own risk, has allowed me to share some of my experiences with you from the 61st Annual Emmy red-carpet. I was there co-hosting the pre-show for TV Guide Network with one of my favorite men in the world, Idol alum, Justin Guarini. Let me tell you ladies, he’s even cuter in person than he is on the small screen.
So, the day went something like this:

Roll out of bed around 5am after a sleepless night…stress will do that to you.

Arrive at the hair/makeup trailers at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles.
After endlessly reworking my, um, interesting up-do, it’s time to squeeeeeez into that super tight dress…1, 2, 3, and zip up! Phew!! I hope that was a good last breath because I won’t be getting another one until we peel this thing off me.

I wore Jean Fares Couture straight from the runway, Casadei sky-high heels (that produced more than a handful of blisters by the time we wrapped) and stunning jewels. Justin donned a fitted Paul Frank suit and Calvin Klein tie.
Then it’s off to our TV Guide platform, sandwiched between E! and the Paparazzi!!

We had a live 3 hour telecast, leading up to our pre-show with new TVG duo, Chris Harrison and Carrie Ann Inaba. Let me say, both shows were a hit! Just so you know, we set the bar for a “successful show” pretty low. In my mind, it consists of not dropping the F-Bomb or unknowingly flashing a “private part.” In this case, neither happened, so we’re in the clear.

Now, I apologize for burying the lead but I noticed three significant enhancements from last year’s Emmys. And I’m not referring to Blake Lively’s Tatas!!
Here it goes: Women are getting EVEN thinner…reference, Rose Byrne and Holly Hunter…security is tighter (pics say it all) and the heat is getting HOTTER!!! Put it this way, stars were so concerned about looking crappy/sweaty in photos that they actually bypassed press in order to get their pics taken first and then circle back around for interviews. Smart move, if you ask me.

Most of Hollywood’s Elite looked simply stunning yesterday (no surprise there) but of course, with the hits are a couple of misses...

Here’s my list of fashion favorites and flops for the 61st Annual Emmys. Let’s face it…guys always look pretty hot so I’m just focusing on the ladies of the night.

THE GOOD: (sorry but there are SO many)
Blake Lively
Heidi Klum
January Jones
Kristin Chenoweth
Kate Walsh
Debra Messing

THE BAD:
Shar Jackson
Olivia Wilde
Patricia Arquette
Victoria Rowell (are you serious with the Obama dress??)

  1. Wow, I can't believe the deathly thin trend is continuing. Walking skeletons.

  2. Ehh...was hoping for some more gossip. Nothing new here we haven't already heard.

    Enty needs to bring back his famous spies so we get the real story of behind the scenes.

    I think Adrianna might need glasses if she thinks Justin Guarini is cute. Sorry, honey, but the boy is not attractive in any sense of the word. Repulsive is more appropriate.

  6. Considering what Patricia Arquette usually wears, I thought she looked nice last night.

  7. Rashida would give us some very good dirt. How come she has stopped giving ENT reports?

  8. yes, Justin looks like a broccoli spear/pineapple/side show Bob, but he did a pretty good job... FYI - the beautiful lady in the black is Mariam the hottest off air producer in Hollywood.

    - Camel the raw Tartar

  9. The guys are getting thinner, too. We need more Ents out there. There was a time when being portly meant rich, and thin meant poor. Can we go back to that time? I want to be mistaken for rich.

    Emobacca, I do believe Rashida was a blind. Maybe that pissed her off.
