At the Staples Center in Los Angeles last night (Feb. 10) for the Grammys it may have been Taylor Swift vs. Kelly Clarkson and Adele vs. Rihanna and fun. vs. Frank Ocean. But there was a much larger battle going on and that was Justin Bieber vs. The Grammys.
Gorgeous ladies and gorgeous gowns prevailed at the 2013 Grammys. With the dress code a topic of conversation leading up to the event, we were all watching to see who would take liberties with the sanctions against butt cracks, side boobs and nip slips.
Jennifer Lopez and Kelly Rowland did just that, but in the right way, while Rihanna, the one star everyone was expecting to ignore the rules altogether, was pretty as a princess and largely covered up, albeit with sheer material.
Here's our rundown of the Best Dressed at the 2013 Grammys.
Two of music's biggest voices - Adele and Beyonce - landed on the Worst Dressed list at the 2013 Grammys. That's not something we expect from either fashionable diva. But you know what, Katy Perry and her unsupported knockers also ended up on this list. So did her beau John Mayer for his Joker-like purple suit jacket.
Without further ado, here are our selections for Worst Dressed at the 2013 Grammys.
Kelly Clarkson took the stage at the 2013 Grammys, dressed in black, singing a soulful and heartfelt medley of 'Tennessee Waltz' and 'You Make Feel (Like a Natural Woman.)'
Maroon 5 and Alicia Keys performed together at the 2013 Grammys, mashing up a performance of their songs 'Daylight' and 'Girl on Fire,' respectively. It didn't exactly feel like an "Oh yeah, that makes sense" partnership, but more like a way for the producers to pair up two acts, right next to one another, without having to swap out the stage or set up.
fun. won Song of the Year at the 2013 Grammys for their ubiquitous smash 'We Are Young,' which is easily one of the most definitive songs of 2012.
Taylor Swift opened the 2013 Grammys as the master of ceremonies and the ringleader, dressed all sorts of fabulous in a white top hat, suit, majorette boots and skirt.
At the St. Paul, Minn. stop of the Born This Way Ball tour, the Lady Gaga-fan site PropaGaga met with Ma Monster and got some key details about 'ARTPOP.' Of course they shared the wealth, for which we thank them immensely. The main thing we took away from it? That 'ARTPOP' will have no shortage in the supply of fun, dirty dance music.
The always stylish Demi Lovato covers the spring issue of the U.K. mag Cosmo on Campus in a short and fun gray frock with a bustier top and a swingy, pleated skirt. She opens up about love and how she went through the phase where she was a clingy girlfriend.
Miley Cyrus and long hair are never, ever getting back together.
If it's not one thing it's another regarding Beyonce's Super Bowl XLVII performance. A manufactured nip slip, being accused of causing a power outage, not having enough "oomph" or a sizzle factor. You name it, Bey's been criticized over it. Not to be outdone, the powers-that-be at PETA have taken aim at Queen Bey for her leather and lace onesie, since it was constructed of exotic skins like python and iguana.
Rihanna really stands by her man. In a twist of irony, Chris Brown headed back to court in Los Angeles today (Feb. 6) regarding probation issues.
