Maggie Gyllenhaal: “Overall, you want to create a look that’s going to do something for you — when they’re stepping out, they’re really in control of their brand and their image. And this does not scream, ‘I am ready for my new Revlon campaign.’ This screams, ‘I’m a fashion indie girl from New York. Who loves carrots.’ And while it works on her, I don’t think it really does much for her body and her proportion. She’s going to look pretty in anything, but it’s not how she could be at her best.” Jason Merritt/Getty Images

Angelina Jolie: “Angelina always plays fashion really smart. She’s a minimalist, so, what are you going to say about that? You can’t, really — she looks beautiful. Do I love the split? Do I love the silhouette? Like the baggy top, and the baggy bottom with a split? Not particularly. But does she look good in everything? Yes, she does. She doesn’t take fashion risks ever.” Frazer Harrison/Getty Images

Cameron Diaz: “I want to hate it, but I love it. I love it but I don’t know why. I don’t really like it, but I love it. Like, it’s pink, it’s got a lot of fabric, it’s nothing I would normally like. I don’t like the dress at all, but I just like the combination of her in the dress.” Frazer Harrison/Getty Images

Christina Applegate: “Christina looks like she’s at an audition. For, you know, like a Belle look-alike competition. It’s like what would happen if you let your mother dress you for an awards ceremony.” Steve Granitz/WireImage.com

Drew Barrymore: “Drew in blue, but needs an updo. I love the dress, her body looks great, but I don’t like the hair and the chunky bracelet and the big ring and the red bag. I just can’t get that. She needs a Cate Blanchett chignon. She needs to call Cate’s hairdresser immediately.” Jason Merritt/Getty Images

Eva Longoria: “This is what we call a ‘ba-bam’ moment. Her body is slamming, the dress is slamming, her breasts are in right proportion, her waist is small, she has a big fishtail and she’s playing for keeps. This is an actress who wants to make money, she wants to be famous and she’s not joking around. She’s saying to advertisers, I’d look good in your lipstick, I’d look great in your jewelry. Call my agent tomorrow.” Jason Merritt/Getty Images

Glenn Close: “Glenn is setting the over-50 women’s movement back over 50 hundred years as a result of this outfit. I mean, this to me is a just a woman who has given up on herself and her beauty and her power and agreed to be matronly. I just, it reminds me of the wallpaper in my bathroom in Syracuse when I was 8.” Steve Granitz/WireImage.com

Jennifer Lopez: “We’ve seen this like 700 million times. It’s like the only silhouette she does. She needs to move on. It’s like, fashion trick accomplished. She needs to move on. Which reminds me, she’s still playing off that Versace silhouette that she did with the banana print? It’s time to get a new fashion trick going. It’s over.” Jen Lowery/startraksphoto.com

Kristin Scott Thomas: “Champagne is to drink, not to be worn. It’s just horrible. What’s with all that extra fabric? It looks like it’s ‘license to ill’ — I mean, throw on some patent leather shoes and she’ll be on the ground in no time.” Jason Merritt/Getty Images

Susan Sarandon: “I love this idea for the Golden Globes. I love the tuxedo. I like her hair back. I don’t really think we needed her shades on, and I think the jewelry could be different — I don’t think it works. She could have a little corset under there. Her boobs look a little low-rider. The shoes needed to be a lot more, like, fashion bitch. They’re too, like, Short Hills mall.” Frazer Harrison/Getty Images

Marisa Tomei: “I want to like this look, but I don’t. I don’t think it works for her proportions. I think it’s Town & Country goes Mexico City.” Steve Granitz/WireImage.com

Mary-Louise Parker: “We hate this look. I like her, I think she’s so smart, but this is ‘Bottega whateva.’ Her hair is not right. I just think she’s so pretty, but I don’t get it.” Jason Merritt/Getty Images

Megan Fox: “You know, this dress to me, it’s another example — it’s a beautiful color if you’re a designer, but it just does not translate on this skin tone. But that tattoo can get covered up now. I mean, do we really need to see Marilyn Monroe’s face off her arm? It’s almost like Marilyn’s trying to steel her thunder.” Jason Merritt/Getty Images

Olivia Wilde: “I love this look on her. I think she’s pretty, she’s youthful, the dress is beautiful. It’s beautiful on the bodice, the waist, all of the attention to detail going on with the tulle. I think the lavender is warm, it’s soothing. With a smile on her face! Happy princess moment. Love it.” Frazer Harrison/Getty Images

Renee Zellweger: “I feel like Renee Zellweger went to a sale on peyote at Mae West’s grave. What is the bra underneath? I don’t know. She’s usually so together and so vintage and so celebratory and knowledgeable about fashion. And that 1980s Sister Christian hairdo — this is like the guy from Night Ranger did her hair. We’re trying to be nice, but it’s hard.” Steve Granitz/WireImage.com

Salma Hayek: “Salma Hayek she looks great here. I mean, it’s a big rack. I think she was probably still breastfeeding her daughter here. If she was breastfeeding, she gets a get-out-of-jail-free card. We have a new word we want to bring back: BITCH, babe in total control of herself. That’s what we have to say about Salma.” Jason Merritt/Getty Images

Isla Fisher: “We said we couldn’t stand it. We said Champagne is for drinking not for wearing. I don’t think it’s pretty. I don’t think it does anything for her. I just don’t get it.” Jason Merritt/Getty Images
