## Michelle Obama

![michelle obama barack obama kennedy center honors](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2015/12/gettyimages-500270048.jpg)

Her head looks fab, though. This is my favorite thing she's worn in a long time.

## Kerry Washington in Marchesa

![kerry washington kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272172.jpg)

Sigh. See-through shoes, subpar makeup, and for my money, that dress is -- though restrained for Marchesa -- too bordello-lite for this.

## Kerry Washington in Alexander McQueen

![kerry washington kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500124038.jpg)

This dress is empirically very pretty, but there's something half-hearted about this, right? I don't know if it's the accessories or the bridesmaid hair, or what, but I don't think Kerry is giving this one her full effort.

## Miranda Lambert

![miranda lambert kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272216.jpg)

Speaking of bored/not really selling it/bridesmaidy.

## Miranda Lambert

![kennedy center honors miranda lambert](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500123986.jpg)

This needs a bracelet and better makeup. SAME OLD SONG. I also appreciate that she clearly felt some netting was required, but it monkeys with the dress too much, so I think... maybe just pick something else.

## Viola Davis

I love her. That is a good-looking couple.

## Gina Rodriguez

![gina rodriguez kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272164.jpg)

This has a tiny bit of a flamenco aura to it, but it looks good on her and I'm pleased to see she didn't pick a basic strapless metallic thingy.

## Michele Lee

![michele lee kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272170.jpg)

This is basically what I would HOPE a Knots Landing alum would wear. EVERY DAY.

## Carole King

![carole king kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500271092.jpg)

Yay, she looks nice. I also really loved reading the story about the Gilmore Girls theme, "Where You Lead," in which she revealed she wasn't into anyone resurrecting that song because it was written for a man and she felt like it was too dated and not pro-woman enough to have a song about following some dude anywhere he wants -- but then she realized redoing it with her daughter and putting it on Gilmore Girls would give it this wonderful texture about family, and the rest is delightful TV history.

## Janelle Monae

![janelle monae kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272198.jpg)

It is impossible for me not to love this photo. It's SO DRAMATIC. That is some marvelous side-eye, and I only wish her mortal enemy had been on the other end of it. Unless... unless her mortal enemy IS on the other end of it, because WHAT IF I AM HER MORTAL ENEMY? I hope not. I would make a really unsatisfying mortal enemy. I'm too easily beaten.

## Janelle Monae

![janelle monae kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272354.jpg)

Unfortunately, I don't actually like the dress. All the black ruffly bits are bothersome.

## Sara Bareilles

![sara bareilles kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272178.jpg)

She looks lovely. I'm sure it's stressful to do these things when you're not accustomed to it.

## Rita Moreno

![rita moreno kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272248.jpg)

Rita is wonderfully classy. Showing 'em all how it's done.

## Laurence Fishburne and Gina Torres

![laurence fishburne gina torres kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272340.jpg)

Gina Torres is so great. I wish I liked that dress on her better. It isn't as killer on her as it should be, and I wish she wore what is on the following slide instead.

## George Lucas and Mellody Hobson

![george lucas mellody hobson kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500124000.jpg)

That is a DRAMATIC dress and Gina would have killed in it.

## Stephen Colbert and Madeleine

![stephen colbert kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272346.jpg)

Stephen Colbert's daugher is about 19, and looks SO much like her father, in a great way. If she has even half his wit and thoughtful smarts, she'll be running the world soon.

## Rosie Perez

![rosie perez kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272252.jpg)

Leaving *The View* really agrees with Rosie.

## Rosie Perez

![rosie perez kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500126504.jpg)

RIGHT? Man, I wish I could get hired by *The View* and then leave almost immediately, if this is the wonders that does.

## Debbie Allen

![debbie allen kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500126542.jpg)

I feel like... if you are going with this dress, you really should button ALL of it. It demands commitment.

## Cicely Tyson

![cicely tyson kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500272342.jpg)

The Internet swears Cicely Tyson is 91\. HOW.

## The honorees

![kennedy center honors](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2015/12/GettyImages-500141670.jpg)

Cicely also totally owns this photo. She is MAJOR and also seriously whatever she does to keep herself looking like that -- whether it's chemical or just eating lots of persimmons or drinking virgin blood -- KEEP DOING IT and also tell me.

[Fugs and Fabs: Celebs at the Kennedy Center Honors EventsSadly our sources didn't have the full photo of this gown, which is why we as a nation turn to People magazine. It's FABULOUS, and if I were her, I'd have been hard-pressed not to have spent ALL NIGHT taking a turn about the room in front of anyone with a lens. \[Photos: Getty\]![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2015/12/gettyimages-500270048.jpg)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/fugs-and-fabs-celebs-at-the-kennedy-center-honors-events-12-2015/)
