Oh man. I don't like Beyonce's first performance dress. Or her performance. her voice doesn't suit this type of music at all. Plus, she's butchering French. I'm sure Vanessa Paradis is cringing in her seat.

you completely read my mind ...

 

[Kewada16]

agree...it sounded pretty bad

 

[liberty33r1b]

^that french wasnt the best ive ever heard.....

 

[liberty33r1b]

is it true that she has three performances in all??

 

[OlgaKorbut]

OMG, had I not known, I wouldn't even have been able to tell that was French. Horrible.

 

[meowmix]

my faves are gwyneth, cate, kate, emmy, and vanessa paradis...
least are scarlett and zhang ziyi

 

[fouroclock]

what was beyonce singing, btw?

 

[fezbatik]

i got back here too late - my thoughts on beyonce EXACTLY. Would it have been too much to ask that they find a great French Chanteusse to sing a French song??

Of course not - Beyonce was the OBVIOUS choice....... jeez

 

[sapphireskies]

About Beyonce's performance could've been better- Whitney Houston or Aretha would've tore it up!

... Read my mind as well. Someone with a more... angelic voice would have suited it better.

No, Depp's character was based on an actual person too.

i've been told too many times...

 

[fezbatik]

thats so funny...they made the little animation stylist from the Incredibles look like Anna Wintour...cute...

 

[Frostelized]

i've been told too many times...

Yeah, I'm sorry! lol I went back and saw some already said so and went to delete my post. You beat me. lol

I think Natalia V. looks great.

And although I like the dress that Natalie Portman wore at GG, the Lanvin works sooooo much better for her.

Cate Blanchett always looks great...the brown belt + purse + canary yellow = style. Love it.

I hate Halle with the long weave, but otherwise she looks fantastic.

And Annette Bening's dress is gorgeous. Love the shoulders.

Oh, and Puff Daddy's looks like he's wearing the tux version of his signature Sean John track suit.

what is this movie 'sideways'?...
i never heard of it...

And I totally know what you mean btw... I saw Les Choristes just this afternoon and Beyonce didn't do the piece any justice whatsoever. I'm disappointed we could hardly hear the choir, as well. Beyonce's voice didn't compliment theirs but rather it was competing with it and sounded just horrible... ah.

I also really like Natalia's dress.
the colour of Kate's dress with the grey/white detail is a dream
