2018 Billboard Awards (Quick Rundown)

Posted on May 21, 2018

Mom-to-be Cardi B was nominated for seven Billboard awards tonight at the MGM Grand hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada and came away with a win for Top Rap Female artist award besting Nicki Minaj who was also nominated in that category.

Our other Bellyitch Bumpwatch alum Janet Jackson showed up on the red carpet looking youthful as ever. She was on hand to receive the Icon Award, the first Black Woman to be bestowed the honor. She also performed a medley of her hits including “Nasty”, “Throb” and “If.”

Kelly Clarkson hosted the event and also looked fabulous in a medley of her own of fab outfits. She started the night addressing the latest school shooting in Texas with a heart felt plea to do something more than have “moments of silences” and “thoughts and prayers” each time there is a school shooting in America. “It’s time we had a moment of action, she pleaded before kicking off the night. Later Khalid and Shawn Mendes did a moving tribute backed by the choir from the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, the site of another school shooting earlier this year.

Christina Alguilera performed a duet with Demi Lovato. Jennifer Lopez performed her song “Dinero” but without Cardi who did not attend the show and perhaps was dealing with the stresses of her fiance Offset getting into a terrible car accident.

Other celeb moms we’ve featured prominently on the blog in attendance included Jenna Dewan Tatum in Zuhair Murad, Padma Lakshmi, Tyra Banks, Mila Kunis in David Koma and Ciara in a body fitting sheer dress..

Fun times!

GOT’s Lena Headey channels character Cersei’s signature Dress Hue at the Emmys

Posted on September 22, 2015

You know who else was looking Amaze Balls on the red carpet to this past Sunday’s Prime Time Emmy Awards at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, California?

Second time nominee and brand-spanking 2nd time new mom Lena Headey looked stunning.

The deep auburn -colored-hair damsel was up for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her role on The Game of Thrones, which took home a record number of statues including a coveted, first time ever Best Drama win.

The magenta Zuhair Murad Couture dress Headey wore is of the same hue of the signature gown she wears often when portraying Cersei Lannister on the hit HBO TV show.

The gorgeous Brit radiated in the gown she accentuated with Jimmy Choo shoes and Harry Kotler Platinum Diamond jewelry.

Headey welcomed her second child, a baby girl, on July 10.

She has a 5-year old son named Wylie with ex hubby Peter Louhgran.

CMT Music Awards Red Carpet

Posted on June 5, 2014

Several of our Bellytich Bumpwatch alums looked radiant last night, June 4, at the CMT Awards held at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee.

One of my faves was Lady Antebellum‘s Hillary Scott who finally mixed up her usual black and went with a beautiful and colorful L’Wren Scott dress with Alexander McQueen (homage to designers who committed suicide?). The Brian Atwood heels were a bit clunky but other than that, fab!

Kristen Bell hosted the event and started out the evening on the red carpet in a Fall 2014 Zuhair Murad beaded V-neck evening gown. She later changed into a Monique Lhuiller Fall 2014 embroidered chiffon gown and later the designer’s long sleeved

leather embroidered cocktail dress and two other cute but dark-colored

dress. She looked very nice but could have mixed up the colors ideally.

My fave look was on Jennifer Nettles who wowed in a black sequined embellished Halsotn top with wide-legged Max Mara pants! Fab when accented with Carrera y Carerra jewels and Neil Lane bracelet.

Melissa Rycroft also looked youthful in her flare mini-dress

Nicole Kidman looked quite youtful in an embroidered Giamattista Valli Spring 2014 couture embroidered mini dress which she altered a bit to add length.

Lovely!
