The Golden Globes Back Story: 20 Of The Sexiest Backs On The Red Carpet

Swooping cowls, cut-outs, drapes, racer-backs, sheer lace work … Golden Globe gowns were as sexy from the back as they were in front this year. Whether it was Lea Michele‘s sheer silver Marchesa to co-star Dianna Agron’s and Evan Rachel Wood’s avian-inspired, red-hot lacy Giles Deacon dress and Gucci Premiere emerald gown, respectively —- the back is officially back. A couple of other favorites include a Glee actress again. Naya Rivera stunned in a silver Vera Wang gown which had a lovely keyhole back. We also truly appreciated the back view of Kathleen Robertson’s Maria Lucia Hohan dress, Stacey Keibler’s stunning Valentino, Kate Beckinsale’s Roberto Cavalli and Heidi Klum’s sexy Calvin Klein.

Put A Bird On It! Aviarian Influences At The 2012 Golden Globes

You know the old saying, “Two is coincidence but three makes a trend?” Well, at the 2012 Golden Globe Awards tonight, one of the more sly trends of the evening was ushered in by the unlikely trio of Dianna Agron, Evan Rachel Wood and Emma Stone. Specifically, all three were wearing outfits that were either made from or paid tribute to our fine feathered friends, birds.

Evan Rachel Wood led the way with her stunning Gucci Premiere gown, which was decked out with shimmery bird feathers that reminded this viewer more than a little of Black Swan. Glee star Dianna Agron dazzled in another avarian-inspired outfit, which was designed by Giles and featured laser-cut swans (or so she told E! red carpet correspondent Giulana Rancic). Lastly, Emma Stone kept her dress in place with a sparkly eagle belt, which may or may not have been modeled after the most patriotic of the Muppets, Sam the Eagle. (Hint: It almost certainly wasn’t.)

Gothic Romance Sweeps The Critics’ Choice Red Carpet

While there were splashes of color on the red carpet at the Critics’ Choice Movie Awards, there was also the predicable black-on-black-on-black ensembles. But the mood was anything but sombre, as those sporting black gowns added an edge to their style with a gothic twist that played off the vampiric undertones of 2011′s trends. Charlize Theron was statuesque in a gown that cascaded in tiers to her feet, with a sleek braid and minimal accessories giving the dark look a modern, fresh feel. Evan Rachel Wood also opted for a floor length gown, and her lacy number, porcelain skin and twisted up-do lent the the look a stoic, old-world air. Judy Greer also went for gothic femininity, in a body-hugging dress overlaid with intricate black lace. Kirsten Dunst wore a beautiful Dior LBD, and embellished with ribbon and tulle, Kirsten bought her signature quirky, fashion forward style to the runway. Also rocking a shorter dress was Chloe Moretz, who went all out on the goth trend in Chanel, wearing shearling sleeves on a baby doll dress with raw seams and ancient looking brooch adorning the collar.

Is Evan Rachel Wood Engaged To Jamie Bell?

Say it all together now: At least it’s not Marilyn Manson. Did you say it? You know we can’t hear if you said it or not. You better have said it, because it looks like Evan Rachel Wood and on-again, off-again, possibly-on-again-forever boyfriend Jamie Bell might have just gotten engaged. The two were snapped exiting a bar in Hollywood yesterday accompanied by the giant rock glimmering at the end of Evan’s arm. Wood initially dated the Adventures of Tintin actor in 2005 when the two met on the set of Green Day’s “Wake Me Up When September Ends” video; the couple already has tattoos of the other’s first initials. Granted, Evan also has a Marilyn Manson tattoo on her thigh, but that’s over with! We never have to go to that dark place ever, ever again! Congratulations to the happy couple, if the rumors are true!

Rooney Mara Excitedly Joins The Long Tradition Of Big Screen Merkins

Merkin Christmas, everybody, and a Happy Pube Year! Have we discussed how much we truly love merkins? You know what we always say: if a movie doesn’t require actors to wear a tiny pubic wig, then it’s not worth watching. Luckily, it sounds like the upcoming film The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo has the request crotch costuming to make it one of our favorites.

Said the film’s star Rooney Mara to Metro, “There was a lot of discussion that went into my merkin for the movie, because I was naked quite a lot. And I don’t think a lot of people will notice all of the attention that went into that. But there was a lot of discussions around that.” Ah, but what of Daniel Craig‘s merkin? We would like to have a discussion about that! Mara continued, “Well, you know, in the book she’s meant to have strawberry-blonde hair originally and she dyes it, so we had a special merkin made that was, you know, strawberry-blonde so that it would fit.” We can all breathe a sigh of relief knowing that the soon-to-be-released thriller is so committed to authenticity. Then take a few more breaths as we gasp in delight at other celebrity merkin experiences:

Evan Rachel Wood, Mildred Pierce: “I looked at Kate and she was like, ‘You’ve got to do it. Trust me, it’s so brave. Put a merkin on and you’ll be fine,’” Wood said, reminiscing about her nude scene in the HBO miniseries. “Let’s just say, I had to wear a wig because it was in the 30s, and everything had to look like it was in the 30s.”

Kate Winslet, The Reader: “I had to grow the hair down there. But because of years of waxing, as all of us girls know, it doesn’t come back quite the way it used to,” Winslet remarked about her 2008 Oscar-winning role. “They even made me a merkin — a wig — because they were so concerned that I might not be able to grow enough.”

Lea, Taylor, ScarJo And Evan Face Off For Les Miz Role

Since Celebrity Deathmatch sadly remains a fictional show, we’ll have to figure out who should be cast in the upcoming Les Miserables movie, co-starring Anne Hathaway and Hugh Jackman, the old-fashioned way: based solely on our personal opinion! Oh, and talent and singing ability, too. We guess.

The New York Post reported today that everyone and their hotter older sister are currently up for the role of the tragic love-lorn Eponine: Glee‘s Lea Michele, Taylor Swift, Scarlett Johansson and Evan Rachel Wood. In addition to being a convincing doe-eyed heroine, Lea actually starred as young Cosette in the Broadway version of the musical. However, the Glee actress faces the same problem as Taylor Swift: you know they’d kill their big number “On My Own,” but would you buy them getting mortally wounded on the barricade while dressed in drag? (Sorry if that detail needed a spoiler alert; the book came out in 1862.) ScarJo admittedly has both the chops and the pipes necessary, but our money is on Evan Rachel Wood. She just looks like she belongs in tuberculosis-ridden 19th-century France. Who would you pick?

Ryan Gosling And George Clooney Out-Charm Each Other, Draw On Ides of March Poster

Two of Hollywood’s handsomest men convened on The Ides of March premiere red carpet. Ryan Gosling and George Clooney physically cannot turn off their oozing charm and certainly didn’t bother last night. The gentlemen took to a giant poster of their faces, penning half a mustache and under-eye bags, chuckling it up all the while in their perfectly dapper suits.
They gleamed so much gorgeous light, we hardly noticed Evan Rachel Wood, Marisa Tomei, Rooney Mara and Clooney’s rumored girlfriend du jour Stacy Keibler on the carpet as well. Drool over Ryorge (our new nickname for the duo) in the gallery below. [Photo: Getty Images]

TheFABlife’s 15 Best Dressed At The 2011 Emmy Awards

The red carpet at tonight’s Emmy Awards contained very few duds and a whole lot of “dayum!” Underdog and relative red carpet rookie Aubrey Plaza took our crown for Best Dressed in her Juan Carlos Obando white gown and retro fabulous hair. The Vampire Diaries‘ Nina Dobrev was a close runner-up in a dramatic, hourglass supreme Donna Karan. Best Actress in a Comedy Series winner Julie Bowen dazzled in an uber deep v-neck Oscar De La Renta and we loved Amy Poehler‘s unique Peter Som navy frock.
Star of tomorrow and Best Dressed honorable mention Kiernan Shipka confirmed she will essentially be a teenager by the time Mad Men returns in an adorable metallic dress and glittery heels. Check out our 15 Best Dressed at the 2011 Emmys below! [Photos: Getty Images]

Evan Rachel Wood Rings In Her 24th Sans Tooth, Avec Fat Lip

Evan Rachel Wood‘s 23rd year of life went out with a BANG! last night as she danced in a Parisian club. While presumably ringing in her birthday, an over-zealous clubber fist-pumped (they do that in Paris, right?!) her right in the face, knocking out a tooth and inflating her lip. Nobody wants to spend their day of birth in a dentist’s chair. “24″ can only go up from here, E-Dubs. [Source: TMZ; Photo: Getty Images]

Evan Rachel Wood’s New Haircut: Love It Or Hate It?

That’s quite a drastic change! Evan Rachel Wood debuted a new hairstyle at the premiere for season 4 premiere of True Blood. It’s so much shorter, but we think she’s pulling it off. Can’t go very wrong with bone structure like that. It’s a pretty gutsy move considering just how much of her hair she’s chopped off. It’s like a punk pixie cut! We also think she worked the look perfectly with her wardrobe — a vest, pants and red suspenders — all by Dolce & Gabbana. We’d like to know what you think so go ahead and vote.
