Bold-y Locks and the Three Scares: Rihanna's trio of Grammy outfits can be classified as the good (comparatively speaking, at least), the bad and the fugly. Let's start with the helmet-headed, neon-nailed singer's red-carpet look, a ruffled, electric blue Zac Posen creation that's suffering from too much clutter on top, a weak force of gravity on the bottom and an excessively molting Cookie Monster underneath. Rihanna sticks with both Posen and the plumage for her onstage performance (heck, she even wears her hair in a ducktail), styling what appears to be a bale of hay dive-bombed by some irate ostriches. She accents her tufted straw number with a belt, bracelets and strap-on ankle coverings (we pray we never have to type that phrase again) from Goodyear's new dominatrix collection. Finally, Rihanna hits a pre-Grammy bash covered up in an anatomically suggestive turtleneck gown (we pray we never have to type that phrase again) seemingly inspired by -- and owing apologies to -- the Native American and ancient Egyptian cultures, respectively. Next award season, when "Umbrella" is but a distant memory (fingers crossed), we suggest RiRi refuse any frock that competes instead of complements her lovely visage, boyishly mod locks and lithe figure.
