2009 Oscars: Jessica Biel’s Couture Calamity

Wins ShoeMinx’s “Best Cameron Diaz Impersonation” Award

Looking at Jessica Biel’s at the Oscars we are beginning to suspect that BF Justin Timberlake, recently named GQ’s “Most Stylish Man,” has some kind of wicked mojo that saps women of their hotness and ability to dress themselves or properly comb their hair.

Now, we know the “Sexy Back” singer can’t be completely blamed for the rolled-out-of-bed-and-skipped-the-shower appearance of ex girlfriend Britney Spears, but it’s a bit suspicious that the “Womanizer” was quite cute, though a bit tickety-tacky (those matching denim outfits they wore in 2001 were a scream!) when they were dating, but post-break up suddenly it was an endless parade of ratty looking hair, bare feet in gas station bathrooms and clothes covered in Cheeto dust.

There’s Something About Mary star Cameron Diaz, GF number two, went from California cool mixed with wacky flair to “for the love of Vogue, buy an iron and do something with your hair!  That bed-head look doesn’t mean you don’t have to wash it” in record time.

Now Esquire’s “Sexiest Woman Alive” is morphing into a rumpled CamDi clone. Just look at how good she looked at the 2007 Oscars.

The 7th Heaven star turned up on the red carpet this year with faintly greasy, lackluster locks that look like she finished a round of Tae Bo with Billy Blanks before dashing to get ready.  And look! Her white Prada duchesse satin gown comes with its own detachable bib to catch stray crumbs after eating hors-d’oeuvres  at the Vanity Fair party.  So handy.  Completing the fug sandwich, Jess shoved her feet into a clunky pair of closed-toe black pumps.   We weep for a silver strappy heel, like these by Christin Michaels.  Sigh.  This look just has Blade 4: Straight to DVD written all over it.

New Couple Alert: Rachel McAdams and Josh Lucas

Watching “The Notebook” Will Never Be the Same Again

Nooooooooo!  Looks like everyone’s favorite on-again and off-again couple, The Notebook stars Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling, won’t be getting their happily ever after.  After a brief recoupling last summer and some romantic public PDA that had every fangirl squealing in delight and mentally planning a Vera Wang wedding, the two are now “openly single.”  Well, that sounds better than saying bitterly single.  Or home alone eating pizza and junk food while cursing your ex’s existence.  They called it quits in November.

While Ryan has been deejaying at a weekly gig at L.A.’s Bardot, Rachel is already rebounding, right into the arms of Sweet Home Alabama star Josh Lucas.  Taking a break from filming Sherlock Holmes with Robert Downey, Jr., the Canadian cutie joined the Obama love fest in DC where she was spotted smooching with the Replacement Romeo at the Purple Ball.  ”They were so lovey-dovey,” a spy told the New York Daily News, “nibbling on each other’s necks, gazing into each other’s eyes and doing a lot of flirty touching.”  It might be too soon but we suggest “McLucas” as their celebrity couple name.

And is it just us or is Josh a bit of a Gosling doppelganger?  Around the eyes maybe?  Our love for Ryan is eternal so Rachel’s hook-up seems a bit like a downgrade, but Josh was coupled with curvalicious actress and Ugly Betty executive producer Salma Hayek for two years so he must have a little sum, sum going on.

We’re conflicted about the break-up.  On the one hand, Rachel and Ryan were sooo cute together.  On the other, Ryan is now footloose and fancy free.  We’d happily lend him our shoulder to cry on.

So in sympathy for all those who wanted Canada’s golden couple to work out, we offer these “Am I Blue” heels from Report.
