That seems fair, actually. ## Rihanna in Zac Posen ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/57591_79693722-compressed-1516910022.jpg) This look really kinda holds up, right? This color is great on her. (This was the year of "Umbrella," which I heard on the radio just the other day, and which ALSO holds up.) ## Nelly Furtado ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/57481_79694628-compressed-1516909993.jpg) We didn't love this at the time, but it's aged better than I would have expected. The color is GREAT on her. ## Corinne Bailey Rae ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/shutterstock_732006eg-1516910068.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Shutterstock (732006eg) Corinne Bailey Rae 50th Annual Grammy Awards arrivals, the Staples Center, Los Angeles, America - 10 Feb 2008 I wish this didn't look like she had a waist-trainer on, because the giant paillettes are so charming. ## Natasha Bedingfeld ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/57491_79693740-compressed-1516910006.jpg) This needs a hoik and I have some questions about the hair-styling choices, but overall: This might be the best she's ever looked? ## Alicia Keys ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/shutterstock_732006cc-1516910044.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Shutterstock (732006cc) Alicia Keys 50th Annual Grammy Awards arrivals, the Staples Center, Los Angeles, America - 10 Feb 2008 This is also FANTASTIC on her, and could easily be reworn this year, if she wanted to. Was 2008...kinda good? No. Surely not. That seems all wrong. ## Carrie Underwood ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/shutterstock_732006cw-1516910052.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Shutterstock (732006cw) Carrie Underwood 50th Annual Grammy Awards arrivals, the Staples Center, Los Angeles, America - 10 Feb 2008 2008 was a good year for pop music; in addition to "Umbrella," and "Rehab," and Kanye's "Graduation," it was also the year of "Before He Cheats," which is a GREAT break-up/cardio song. Carrie looks very much like herself here -- with a LOT of hairspray. ## Joey Fatone and Lisa Rinna ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/shutterstock_732006av-1516910036.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Shutterstock (732006av) Joey Fatone and Lisa Rinna 50th Annual Grammy Awards arrivals, the Staples Center, Los Angeles, America - 10 Feb 2008 This seems about right. ## Miley Cyrus ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/shutterstock_732006ea-1516910060.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Shutterstock (732006ea) Miley Cyrus 50th Annual Grammy Awards arrivals, the Staples Center, Los Angeles, America - 10 Feb 2008 Remember Miley's brief Brunette Period? This whole look is very prom, but the kind of prom you wouldn't be embarassed about ten years down the road. ## Fergie ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/shutterstock_732006fa-1516910076.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Shutterstock (732006fa) Stacy 'Fergie' Ferguson 50th Annual Grammy Awards arrivals, the Staples Center, Los Angeles, America - 10 Feb 2008 With the exception of how this is slowly melting off her body, this is ALSO very good? I feel unmoored. ## Tim McGraw and Faith Hill ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/shutterstock_732006fk-1516910084.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Shutterstock (732006fk) Tim McGraw and Faith Hill 50th Annual Grammy Awards arrivals, the Staples Center, Los Angeles, America - 10 Feb 2008 ALSO GOOD. (I mean, Tim looks like an evil sharpshooter, but that's not that far out of the range of normal.) ## Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/shutterstock_732006hj-1516910092.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Shutterstock (732006hj) Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert 50th Annual Grammy Awards arrivals, the Staples Center, Los Angeles, America - 10 Feb 2008 Were we ever so young? Props to Miranda for negotiating that gown with no wrinkles on her torso at all. ## John Legend and Chrissy Teigen ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/shutterstock_732006fp-1516919579.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Shutterstock (732006fp) John Legend 50th Annual Grammy Awards arrivals, the Staples Center, Los Angeles, America - 10 Feb 2008 BABY CHRISSY. ## Josh Groban ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/shutterstock_732006ia-1516910099.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Shutterstock (732006ia) Josh Groban 50th Annual Grammy Awards arrivals, the Staples Center, Los Angeles, America - 10 Feb 2008 I suspect Groban wants a do-over on this. ## Lil' Mama ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/shutterstock_732006ib-1516910107.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Shutterstock (732006ib) Lil Mama 50th Annual Grammy Awards arrivals, the Staples Center, Los Angeles, America - 10 Feb 2008 This is a lot of look, but in a cute way? ## Bai Ling! ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/57581_79698393-compressed-1516910011.jpg) This is ALSO a lot of look, but in a cute way -- thought it's too much sideboob for anyone's comfort, even Bai Ling's. ## Bai Ling's Bandaid's of Truth! ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/57581_79698401-compressed-1516910017.jpg) Remember her Informative Bandaids? I miss them. ## Kimberly Paisley-Williams ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/57451_79694233-compressed-1516909987.jpg) SOMEONE was going to get it wrong; I am sorry it was you, KPW. You look like you're angling for a role in a sassy Lifetime movie about witches on the Upper East side. In 2008, clearly. ## Fantasia Barrino ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/57411_79691757-compressed-1516910259.jpg) This is good on her; I might have given her some more bling? ## Solange and Beyonce ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2018/01/57431_79694742-compressed-1516909981.jpg) Tah-dah! Our take on this at the time was that Solange got sartorial short shrift, and she's certainly less flashy than Beyonce is her, but I think her look has proven to be a bit more timeless, if boring. Beyonce looks good -- very princess-y! -- but they do look like they're going to very different parties.
