Jada Pinkett Smith
I enjoy seeing Jada here next to Martin Short, who is himself relatively aptly named. He's listed at 5'7", which means he's probably rounding up a bit, and SHE is in huge heels and still isn't as tall as he is, so imagine how petite this means she is. I'll give her that her GIrl On Fire dress makes her look long, but it also makes her look like she's about to do the paso doble on Dancing With The Stars with a man wearing Brylcreem and a lot of baby oil. I think I'd have liked it better either without the slit, or the sheer. Both together take it straight to the lambada.

See? Without the slit visible, it's better. A discussion piece. With it, I keep expecting her to rest her heel on a dude's shoulder and let him drag her around the floor while she does jazz hands.

I love this color. But I really, really don't like the execution, because EVERY TIME I look at this, I do a double-take before realizing those aren't booty shorts. ESPECIALLY because if anyone were going to wear a dress randomly harnessed to a pair of spankies, it's Jada.

And now we're back to the whole High Priestess of Smithtonia look -- Smithtonia being, of course, in the same galaxy as Planet Kardashia, but a swankier neighborhood.

This is sort of cute, though. And, hi, Chastain. It must have been a strange photocall, because actors in animated movies very rarely ever actually MEET while they are recording. So she and Jada are all grabby and huggy at this photocall, despite the fact that it's entirely possible they first shook hands like five minutes beforehand. Very trippy. Also, Chastain's toes are totally shooting out over the edge of those shoes. No good. Or, to quote a really old Sesame Street bit that my mother likes to reference a lot, "N.G., Lefty."
