Glamour Gone From Hollywood

They have made it to the big time attending the Emmy's holding their breathe that their name will be called and they can give their thank yous and attribution to the world. Take a look at the photos - the glamour is gone. I found maybe a handful of stars donning gowns designed by the best that revealed style, grace and poise. The majority looked like they had just climbed out of bed, rubbed their hands through their hair and donned the first thing that was available.

Very few wore jewelry and those that did seemed to want to overdo. Yes, I am old school. Yes, I loved to play dress up and encourage my granddaughters to do the same. It is a means of discovering style and taste. Ladies, this was not a tea party or luncheon - it was the Emmy's for goodness sake and you let us all down. We, the people, expect a star quality exhibition when you attend these well covered events. Give us something back - we spend our time adoring you and we want a show!

Of course there had to be two or three that went over the top and wore something really outlandish, but the single biggest problem was ill fitted gowns. Style, color and design followed closely. Some were beautiful gowns not meant for the people wearing them. Some were beautiful people wearing the wrong gown. Where or where have the mirrors gone.

Poise - look at the photos - there wasn't any. Most of the attendees are straining so hard at something that the muscles and cartlidge in their necks are strained to bursting. The poses are outlandish and do not flatter at all. Poise and grace are out the window.

In my opinion, Sigorny Weaver was the best dressed, most poised and most confident of the attendees pictured. Thank you for taking the time to please us.
