Showing Out in Vegas: The Billboard Awards, The Good & The Ugly

              Somewhat agasint my will (thankyou Rhodela -_-) I watched the awards Sunday. Even though Im not really a fan of this particular award show, I was pleasantly suprised by the outfits that I saw. Some were succesful, some were dreadful, and others fell somewhere in between. But all of the ensembles were memorable. This award celebs were not trying to blend in by any means. From red carpet sophisticated chic, to attention grabbing (surprisingly) moveable attire in the performances, this year Vegas sparkled with more stars and glitter then a bachelorette party. Here's a brief recap:

Selena Gomez proving shes not a little girl in Dolce & Gabana

Nicki Minaj actually kind of chic (minus the wig) in Mark Fast

Fergie in Hervé Léger by Max Azria Atelier dress dont really like the bottom though

And Ke$sha looking kind of evil chic in her Jad Ghandour gown

Kylie Minogue in the late Alexander McQueen proving black is beautiful

Kerri Hilson finally giving into the beauty of simplicity and embrassing color in Rachel Roy

Always chic Beyonce, killing it once again in Lanvin

Michelle Williams all glitter bound (designer unknown)

Justin Bieber in his usual skinny jeans and sneakers uniform

with a jacket by DSQUARED2 to match his award

and Taylor Swift sparkling and pretty in pink in Elie Saab

The Stars also turned up the knotch in the one of a kind performance outfits:

True to Beyonce's bad ass style she shimmed around the stage

giving a stellar performance in this (dress?) she we call it?

Only the queen B could pull this off

Bandage and catsuits galore were present this award show

Ms. Spears' black bandaged outfit was no expception

True to Nicki style she performed Super Bass in this ensemble

it reminds me of some kind of bug but I applaud her risks

Rih Rih's second all white ensemble that night, This outfit

was very fitting for the S&M singer, although I think the hue is out of control,

the hair is cute on her, and I must admit

I'd probably buy something similar to this little bandage style corset ;-)
