GWYNETH PALTROW’S FAUX PUNK ROCKER
COURTNEY LOVE’S CLOWN IMPERSONATION
Courtney Love‘s Bozo-like makeup in this 2009 shot featured heavy, badly-placed blush, spiky lashes and way too much lipstick smeared on her artificially-inflated lips.
The No. 1 rule of makeup is balance. If you go heavy on the lips, go light on the eyes — and vice versa.
This is all heavy with no measured balance.
LADY GAGA CHANNELS A PANDA
You never can predict what Lady Gaga is going to do with her makeup or her clothes.
When she appeared on a Japanese talk show in 2011, she decided to fully immerse in Asian culture and present herself as a panda, complete with two blacked out eyes and her hair done up in knots above her head like ears.
We can appreciate the sentiment, but unless she was on a kid’s TV show, this type of smeared football war paint was unnecessary. She looks like she’s been the unfortunate victim of domestic violence.
JENNIFER LOPEZ’S FOX FUR LASHES
While Jennifer Lopez usually looks amazing with her bronzed skin, nude lips and false lashes, her eye framers at the 2001 Oscars were constructed of red fox fur.
They thoroughly pissed off animal rights groups, and rightfully so. Any number of synthetic materials would’ve done the trick.
There’s no need to steal an animal’s fur just so you can bat your lashes seductively.
Cruel and uncool.
At the 2001 Oscars, Gwyneth Paltrow tried to shed her WASPy image by going braless in a sheer black dress with a milkmaid braid and smoky eye makeup.
While we loved her inky-eyed style as a characterin ‘The Royal Tenenbaums,’ it doesn’t work in real life.
Gwynnie wore too much messy eye makeup and it didn’t suit her. She was trying to be punk rock and it was a mistake. It prompts one reply: “Sellout!”
