Lil Mama hit up a Grammy event last night in Hollyweird. While we’ve seen her rock some garbage that is way worse than this, something is still a little ‘off’.

More images from that event:

  • Jahpson

  • Cage

    Umm…. No, sorry babygirl. And will someone please tell Rick Ross that chain is not hot. Give it to Sean Kingston.

  • Jack Tripper

    she never looks good to me

  • Mami

    I like Chrisette Michelle down to earth look..I wouldn’t waste my money on “high label clothes” that really only cost about $10 to make..Just because you have money does not mean you have to be wasteful..

    I don’t like Lil Mama’s outfit..I’m just not feeling that vest look and the mustard color jeans..I would have loved them as a kid back in the day, but to each their own.

  • Zayah

    I like it..but that black thing around her neck gotta go..

  • Kel

    her face just looks old as hell…. Not cute at all…..

  • Moreaces

    Can’t we get over Fantasia’s look before you jump out with this.. No it aint hot.

  • Deonte

    This gurl juzt ain’t got it!!! No star power nothin!!!

  • Dick Chestnut

    Not too many guys can pull of wearing skinny jeans, pumps, a tight purple shirt and a girly vest, but he looks really comfortable here (no homo). My only issue is the makeup. Dudes should never wear lipstick, but do you Lil’Dude!

  • ~*~IslandNik~*~

  • NotoriousOne

    LMBAO @ Dick Chestnut…you know you had me scrollin’ back up to make sure I was in the right post!! That ish is true though!

  • whisper

    Is she for real? I know I’m getting old but I just don’t see how this outfit could have been on purpose.

  • S Dot

    I love me some Chrisete Michelle, but she’s looking a little homely lately… what’s up with that?

  • T-Real

    I think celebrities dress like this to see if it will start a fashion trend. Somebody is going to step out of their house wearing this crazy get up and emphasize the fact they saw her wearing it. God help us!

  • http://www.yahoo.com Southern Belle 225

    UM, WHY SHE LOOK SO MAD AND I’M MAD AT RICK ROSS FOR THAT CHAIN!

(BY THE WAY THE 80′S STYLE IS BACK IN AND YOUNGSTERS ARE PUTTING THEIR OWN TWIST ON IT) MAYBE ITS BECAUSE I AM FROM FRISCO BUT SHE LOOKS CUTE. HER MOM DIED!!!!! MAYBE THAT IS WHY SHE IS SAD. ALSO IF OTHER RACES CAN GO OUT IN PUBLIC DRESSING HOW THEY FEEL WHY CAN’T BLACK GIRLS……….WE DO NOT HAVE TO MATCH OUR SHOES WITH OUR PURSE AND BELTS ANYMORE>>>>>>>>BTW IF YOU GUYS WAS TO SEE HER WOULD YOU NOT HOLLA? WOMEN WOULD YOUR KIDS NOT GO CRAZY?

    Advertising

    A New Venture for Jay-Z, on Madison Avenue

    By STUART ELLIOTT

    JAY-Z is a Grammy-winning rapper, a club owner, a clothier, a fledgling hotelier, the part-owner of a basketball team and the former president of a record label. Now, he gets to add adman to his résumé.

    Jay-Z — real name, Shawn Carter — is joining forces with another African-American entrepreneur, Steve Stoute, to open Translation Advertising in New York, an agency that will help marketers reach multicultural consumers.

    The new agency will be part of Translation Consultation and Brand Imaging, which has worked for mainstream advertisers like General Motors, Hewlett-Packard, McDonald’s and Reebok.

    Translation Advertising expects to announce its first clients soon, said Mr. Stoute, who sold Translation Consultation last October for an estimated $10 million to $15 million to the Interpublic Group of Companies in New York.

    Interpublic, the third-largest agency company (behind the Omnicom Group and the WPP Group) also owns agencies like Campbell-Ewald, Deutsch, Draft FCB, GolinHarris, R/GA and Universal McCann. Interpublic and Translation Consultation share clients like the Chevrolet division of G.M.

    Interpublic will own 49 percent of Translation Advertising. The majority stake will be owned by Mr. Stoute, 37, and Jay-Z, 38, who will be the co-chairmen.

    “You know his story,” Mr. Stoute said of his new partner, who grew up in the Marcy Projects in Brooklyn. “He came from nothing and turned it into something before our eyes.”

    Mr. Carter, in a telephone interview, said he considered his involvement in an agency “part of the natural growth” of his career.

    “As an artist, you make music,” Mr. Carter said. “And if you see people who don’t know how to market your music, you get involved in it.”

    Otherwise, what you want to accomplish “gets lost in translation,” he added, “no pun intended.”

    Mr. Carter was referring to his work first at Roc-A-Fella Records and later at Def Jam Recordings. Mr. Carter stepped down last month as president at Def Jam, part of the Universal Music Group.

    “He left his day job at Def Jam; he has to do something,” Mr. Stoute said, laughing.

    The Interpublic venture, which is to be announced on Friday, is indicative of the intensifying interest on Madison Avenue in minority consumers.

    One reason is the growth of the African-American, Hispanic and Asian-American populations in the United States, which together account for an estimated $2 trillion in consumer buying power.

    Another is the increasing influence of minority consumers on the general market, by setting trends and influencing buying decisions in categories like apparel, automobiles, beverages, food, music and sports.

    For instance, think back to the commercials that appeared nationally on Sunday during the Super Bowl, the biggest night of the year for advertising.

    A spot for Diet Pepsi Max featured musicians like Missy Elliott, Macy Gray, LL Cool J and Busta Rhymes. Naomi Campbell danced in a commercial for SoBe Life Water to a song by Michael Jackson.

    Another Super Bowl spot, for Bud Light, was centered on the comedian Carlos Mencia. And the basketball players Charles Barkley, Shaquille O’Neal and Dwyane Wade appeared in commercials for T-Mobile and Vitaminwater.

    Some advertisers already believe there is no longer “a so-called general market,” said Lisa Skriloff, president at Multicultural Marketing Resources, a consulting company in New York, but rather a coalition or collection of diverse consumer groups.

    “It’s especially true for companies doing business in ‘minority majority’ states” like California and Texas, she added.

    Despite those demographic and cultural changes, Ms. Skriloff said, estimates are that ads aimed at minority consumers account for less than 4 percent of the total ad spending in the United States.

    “There are major advertisers that are still not getting it, that don’t have anyone in-culture helping them, in the company or at an agency,” she added, while others “are afraid of missteps, afraid they will do the wrong thing.”

    That apprehension is not totally unfounded.

    “There are people who don’t understand the culture,” Jay-Z said, citing as an example a commercial for a wireless carrier “that shows guys break-dancing in the phone store.”

    “It’s just not something we do,” he added dryly.

    “We go into the stores and want the same thing as everyone else,” Jay-Z said, adding: “We may care about the style of the phone a little bit more, but we want our phone to work. We care about the functionality.”

    Mr. Stoute described multicultural consumers as “a very loyal audience if you come to them in the right way — if you speak to them, and not speak down to them.”

    Interpublic owns 49 percent stakes in several agencies that specialize in multicultural marketing to primarily Hispanic and Asian-American consumers, among them Accentmarketing, the IW Group and Siboney USA.

    But Interpublic has not been represented in the multicultural/African-American realm for several years, since selling a 49 percent stake in an agency named GlobalHue back to its managers.

    “It’s all part of the integrated-offering approach,” said Michael I. Roth, the chairman and chief executive at Interpublic — integrated not in a racial way but in a marketing way, providing clients with a multitude of advertising services that “we can bring to the table all at once,” Mr. Roth said.

    Jay-Z is not the only urban entertainment figure to become involved in advertising.

    Spike Lee leads an agency, Spike DDB, that is part of the DDB Worldwide division of Omnicom. And Damon Dash has announced the start-up of BlockSavvy.com, an interactive ad agency and social-networking Web site.

    “If we sit in a room,” Mr. Carter said, “and offer our ideas of how to reach consumers, how to speak to them — and this is not a cocky statement — put us up against anything, and we’ll win our fair share of battles.”

    Mr. Carter said his role at Translation Advertising would be to offer his creative and entrepreneurial ideas. Mr. Stoute described it as not “day-to-day operations” but rather “using his eye, his taste, his understanding of the culture.”

    “As an owner of the New Jersey Nets, he’s not coaching,” Mr. Stoute said of Mr. Carter.

    Mr. Carter’s work as an endorser in ads will be independent of what he does for Translation Advertising. He has appeared as part of campaigns for brands like Hewlett-Packard and Reebok.

  • Just my opinion

    Umm, I was going to talk about how she ALWAYS looks a hot mess. But then I got to thinking about how her mother just passed and although I saw a picture of her mother and she was just as tacky….this little girl has only had one song. She probably doesn’t have the support other stars do like stylists and someone to say what the hell? So lets try cutting her a break, besides, it’s not like she’ll be around for long anyway. Maybe after this rides out, she will at least have enough money to go to college.

  • http://site.gravatar.com/ Dixon_Girl

    Leave her alone everyone…she’s still YOUNG. That’s why she wears such outfits.

  • http://site.gravatar.com/ Dixon_Girl

    SMH @ Rick-Ross…..

  • bree

    KUDOS to Jay..sorry just sit..i don’t think they will be reading it..there aren’t enough pictures in your post

  • http://myspace.com/asianidyrathomas Mz. Asia

    LoL @ Bree

  • TuesdaysChild

    Terribly Tacky. Entire outfit looks like it was put together from the “clothes for the poor” box at the back of the church.

  • RIP Prop Joe

    sigh…

    Lil Mama is trying her damndest to be an ‘individual’, but it’s not working – at all.Not everyone can be the “Quirky Girl”…

    Bless her heart

  • RIP Prop Joe

    btw, the Keyshia Cole alias needs work…

  • ama

    it’s not her outfit. I just find that her shape is a bit too small to pull it off.

  • http://ureshi-now.com Chiara

    I think she’s ugly. But the clothes are not that bad.

  • ladyk01

    she looks a mess..like a damn old ass lady..nall lil moma you can do better

  • Manhattan

    ooh she look like Marlon Wayans in drag!

  • Shootingstar

    Give the child a break! She just lost her mother.

  • http://www.myspace.com/shenequaboo MissWoo

    I’m not a fan of Lil’ Mama but her outfit isn’t bad. It’s put togetger ok and the color scheme is nic. What’s off is her awkward pose ond the sadness on her face.

  • GRACE

    She is in a desperate need of a stylist! She also need the person who teaches you how to walk, pose & smile on the red carpet. She is a beautiful girl with lips to die for. She is young & she just need direction. These record companies today do not invest in artist development. That is why their artist come & go so quick.

  • pretty FoShaw

    so sorry for her lost (real talk)but i think little mama tries so hard to be so different and unique that she just comes off looking silly,and why rick ross clothes look so wrinkle

  • pretty FoShaw

    poor thing,her face looks so sad,also the lost of her mother could be affecting her style of dress,and the fact that she is young and trying to find herself

  • capt’n backslap

    Off the top of my head, I cannot think of one cute chick with that Michael Jackson/John Travolta Cleft in their chin….

  • Nish

    This is one of her better outfits, but the face is screaming for proactive!!! To be young, she has some bad skin. She needs to stop wearing so much make-up, it is ruining her skin.

  • Marv

    smash someone mentioned she looks like bow wow in drag yall so mean!

  • Here and NOW

    I don’t think she would look that much like a boy if her hair was down. In reality she can’t help that she looks like a man but she can do something about her outfit, all men don’t look that bad in drag.

  • http://www.myspace.com/beccathepromomami Becca the Promo Mami

    i dont know about the total look :: but the jeans are hot.

  • Manhattan

    Shootingstar

    Why should we give her a break? If she was truly mourning the loss of her mom why is she galavanting around town at a Grammy’s party?

    When my parent passed away it took me months before I had the desire to enjoy myself. Apparently she’s ok so why should we curb telling the truth?!

    Lil mamma do look like Marlon Wayans in drag!!!

  • Manhattan

    Rick Ross does look like a flying monkey -ooh wee!

  • Kerry

    Why she look like that? …She looks hungry! Im sorry, but she does…

  • Tati

  • candi

  • The JACK OFF Artist…

  • deafjam04

    I want to send my symphathy to Lil Momma with her mom just passing. I love her video with Chris Brown and T-Pain! I feel her style is her…can’t knock it…one thing for sure is it is different from the rest. I love Tank’s cd…the skits are funny as h#ll! He is one fine brother!

  • http://www.prettygirl.com JussLykeCandi

    Lil mama is not a attractive girl I mean I never thought she looked good at all. Sorry Lil Mama

  • getyourhandouttamypocket

    LMAO @ everyone who is saying ‘aw, she just lost her mama, give her a break…’…I’m sorry to hear that her mother died, but that is NO excuse to look like a damned bag lady in public.

    The fake Keyshia Cole is wack as hell…please, let us be original people. The fake MJB did it best…just leave it alone!

    Finally, Rick Ross’ chain is lame, Chrisette Michelle is so cute, and Tank would get it from every angle.

    That is all.

  • Candy

    Chrisette Michele looks fat and dumpy, she should wear better jeans to flatter her figure. She has a pretty face though.

  • chynna

    she’s sad, and my prayers go out to her and her family. but real talk, she’s not the cutest girl. her lips are too big and she’s just not cute. her eyes and her little fair complexion doesn’t make her cute. no on would think she was cute if her skin was darker!

  • Roni

    Yes she does look like a man. Last night I watched that Dance show on MTV and she’s a judge…she’s always using these dance words when talking to the contestants (as if they know what she’s talkin about ) I don’t think she even knows what she’s talkin about…and any who didn’t know her mom passed away.

  • Sammy J. Parker

    poor thing…wayyy contrived…too busy…not young and fun just all over the place…SMH

  • Complexchick2003

    Lil’ Mama Looks Bad…I’m Sorry That She Lost Her Mom..

  • N-Qui-Sa-Tive

    If you lost your mom, how would you handle it? Yet alone under the public eye? I loike her. I think she’s a positive role model for young girls. I hope she can get through this and yall lay off of her. Espically if what they say about her mother is true. You know you all would be the first ones fussing and yelling about how people need to show some sympathy.

  • Mami

    @Chynna

    Her lip are not too big, they are plump and beatiful. And I think most people said she was not cute. This had nothing to do with skin complexion. wow. But you know what not everybody shares the same views on what is pretty and what is ugly..

  • Y

    yeah i feel for lil mama…she looks very sad. has she always been so thin?

  • imjustme

    she has a big ass head… poor girl.. she needs a new stylist!!

  • http://werereadingandwriting.blogspot.com/ Love2read

    She doesn’t look happy to be there. Maybe they should have waited for her to get ready before taking the picture.

    I mean, she can’t be posing like that on purpose – could she?

  • Miss Dee (Where’s our Redskins Coach Dammit)

    All I can say about Lil Mama’s outfit is WTF??????? And no Chrisette Michele does not have to spend a lot of money on her clothes… I’m in full agreement with that, but to her I will also say WTF??? She could go to Marshall’s, TJ Maxx, or Ross and get a better hook up than that montrosity (sp?)!!! Anywhooo… Note to Ricky Ross… putting a Mini-Me chain around your neck is not cute for a dude pushing 40!!! Cut the baffoonery out and grow TFU!!!!!!!!!!!

  • The Mars Volta

    lil mama’s face and outfit is ALL WRONG!! She Looks A Hot One!

  • yes

    she doesnt look like shes feelin it much herself

  • Curly Fries

    I’m not feeling that outfit, but Lil’ Mama can get away with it. She sure as hell looks better than Fantasia.

  • 843Princezz

    Um…yeah babygirl needs a stylist ASAP. She does look kind of lost though. I guess since her mama ain’t around she wants to start looking sexier but that lil’ number doesn’t do it for me.

  • lovely and amazing

    She may not look like what’s expected of a hip-hop star. I think she looks like a hip young college student. I think that’s a good image.

  • skinnychicksneedluv2

    she is lookin like a h.a.m…HOT ASS MESS..oh and her video is wack…

  • Ike

    Whao, Bow wow is umm yeah hes trying something different with this outfit. I wonder if he changed his style for Omarion?? Ohh $hit this isnt bow wow its Lil Mama, my bad.

  • http://thumbsnap.com/v/hJSxpF6W.jpg mz.cee

    manface!

    tank looks hott!

  • Nathalie

    Lil Mama looks like the wayne’s bros in white chicks….thats why she always looks a lil off

  • destiny

    ARE YOU?

  • jane

    Before I enlarged it, I thought Chrisette Michele was a baggage handler/assistant of someone famous who was accidentally photographed.
