The Best of the Rest of the VMAs Red Carpet

Nico Tortorella

Nico Tortorella seems like a lot. (Although, interestingly, them being so much also makes me think more highly of them as an actor [Nico uses "them/they" pronouns].)

So, "flammable" is spelled wrong, and "nonflammable" doesn't take a space. (It might take a hyphen?) Someone should spell-check your somewhat tongue-in-cheek manifesto before you commit it to a coat.

Shawn Mendes

This feels super early 90s, in a way that I actually love? Carry on, young person.

Victor Cruz and Karrueche Tran

I also love them together -- his jacket is cute, her little leather dress is charming, and they both look genuinely happy. (I'm also SO used to seeing her with blonde hair on Claws; she looks great with darker locks.)

This is actually great.

Noah Cyrus

0 DAYS WITHOUT A BRA/CROP TOP ON NOAH CYRUS.

Noah Cyrus and Lil Xan

I can't with Noah's boyfriend. I just can't do it. Although here they look sort of entertainingly like twins.

Heidi Montag

Did you hear? MTV is rebooting The Hills...but WITHOUT LC. I'm sorry, while I am happy that Justin-Bobby will have continued employment, you cannot do The Hills without Lauren. It's like doing Mad Men without Don Draper.

Anna Kendrick in Ralph & Russo

I think I've just come to a place of acceptance about the fact that while I really like Anna Kendrick as a performer and a human, I am always going to be vaguely unmoved by her outfits. This also feels a bit out-of-character for Ralph & Russo. It's so ... fiddly.

Gucci Mane and Keyshia Ka'Oir

That is a very groovy blazer.

Kylie Jenner in Tom Ford

This is LITERALLY the best Kylie has EVER LOOKED, I think.

Dej Loaf

This is obviously bonkers but I also sincerely appreciate someone GOING FOR IT at one of these things. And when you're not super well known, it's also a good way to get on people's radar.

Nicky Hilton

I feel like Nicky -- and her Meghan Markle Aquazarra heels! -- was walking past on her way home from a cocktail party and just decided to pop in to this for the hell of it.
