Sophistication, beauty and an eye for fashion. Stars are supposed to have these qualities, and they pay good money for people to create this mystique for them, in some cases, they are NOT getting their money's worth. Here's a sampling of what went down at the Poiret: King of Fashion Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

The Worst Of Them All: Jessica Simpson.

This young woman has zero sophistication. Not an ounce. It's like she gets her sense of femininity and class straight out of Hustler. Her stance, her pose, her makeup SCREAM whore. I am sure she is nice, but seriously someone help a girl out. Also, I HATE her hair color. It's awful and the tan, excruciating. She's just an absolute nightmare. Teach her the art of "demure" please. Where the F is Henry Higgins when you need him?!

Linebacker Award Goes To: Brook Shields

I like Brooke. Back in the day Blue Lagoon and Endless Love were the BOMB. But she needs to tweeze those damn caterpillars she's got creeping across her face. Soften it up. Also, square neckline with cap sleeves? Jeebus, that rarely looks good on anyone, but certainly not someone as "big-boned" as Brooke. V-neck for crying out loud, you're a woman, not a half-back.

Awkward Pose Award: Christina Ricci

Christina Ricci is a gorgeous creature, all three feet and 85 pounds of her. And while I applaud her covering up her five-head, I actually think she looks much prettier withOUT bangs, and perhaps lighter hair. Highlights maybe to soften it up a bit. Why she's standing like she's got a cramp in her buttmuscle I don't know, but it looks weird and painful. She's having an off-night I guess.
