2014 BET Red Carpet Arrivals : Pinktastic, Straddlin The Fence, Chile Bye!

Emily B, cute look!

I was going to go easy on the 2014 BET Awards because I feel a certain type away because let me tell y’all what they did this year! They made the carpet smaller and so with that comes chopping down the list of media that can actually get on the carpet. I got a “partial credential” for EVERYTHING leading up to the carpet and after but who in their right mind would fly all the way out to Los Angeles to go to everything except the main event? That’s a lot of money spent for me travel, hotel, car etc, so I bowed out graciously! I was also a lil offended because I have been going for over 6 years! No thanks, I will stay my behind home! That was so unprofessional of BET and I found out later that they hired a new pr team and that’s why ALOT of media outlets were slighted this time around. Trust me people were complaining and were even going to boycott posting on their event. Some people still went out there and got the pie face when they tried. Chile I got better things to do and to be honest, I have kinda outgrown a lot of this anyway. I have so much stuff coming up, you guys will see! I was NOT pressed by not being in attendance because them same folks will be at the Essence Music Festival this weekend, where I will be too and with people that appreciate me and my brand Talking With Tami!

Anyway, people were texting me and carrying on wondering where I was but I stayed home with my family, relaxed, hosted a girls night in and kicked back. I did watch all of the foolery on tv and it was a snoozefest like always and I hate how BET kept saying that Jay Z and Beyonce was going to perform when in all actuality folks got a projection screen and old video footage of their tour…Bloop! The horrendous outfits on the carpet made me really write this post and because of a loyal reader that emailed me and asked, Tami I’m waiting to read your commentary on the red carpet arrivals! I thought about it and at first I was going to be a sweet angel but my twin woke up fast and Pink Suga came out after looking at all the hot mess, so I decided to blog about it! So without further adieu let’s see who hit up the carpet and made my list of…Pinktastic, Straddlin The Fence and Chile Bye!

Sidenote: EVERYBODY and their mama had on somebody’s online/instagram boutique fashions that was donated or sponsored! These celebs got more money than me(I think) and they couldn’t find a real designer to loan them a piece? I can do better than this and I aint got half their coins! I always scratch my head and blame their management! LOL! I don’t have a favorite look either, nothing tickled my fancy!

True story! I had a bad a** dress shipped in to me to wear to this carpet and it would have slayed all this mess but I will save it for another fab event next time! I’m filming with VH1 this afternoon, so I don’t have a lot to post today because I have to get ready so, Let’s go! Who was your fav dress celebrity? Chime in! xoxo

Paris Hilton in Michael Costello, cute but why was she there?

Besides the over-the-top statement necklace, I like Claudia Jordans look! Cute Jimmy Choos too!

Adrienne Bailon looks super sexy in Michael Costello, werk! I think her top-knot could have been bigger!

Ashanti in Michael Costello, I don’t like the shoes but cute gown!

Amber Rose in white gown, very simple and chic! Love her total look!

Eva Marcille in white cut-out gown, hate her makeup and hairdo! Argh!

Straddlin The Fence

KeKe Palmer in Alon Livne dress, the shoes killed this look for me! The dress is nice! She looks shocked that she even wore this, lol!

So Kerry Washington is going for tea and crumpets after the carpet? Wearing Dolce & Gabbana lol.

Zendaya in Emanuel Ungaro, I can count five different looks here! I’m so confused, lawd somebody!

Kenya Moore in Victoria Beckham, the runny Barbie makeup and frazzled hair hmm?

Regina Hall has a lot of misses to me, what is going on here?

Chile Bye!

Sevyn Streeter I say this with love because I actually like you, FIRE your whole glam squad! They played you!

Charlie Baltimore here. Folks thought you were Ciara on the carpet but anyway this Balmain silver dress washes you out and that ghostly makeup & hair ain’t doing it! You look like you were an extra in Hunger Games!

Erica Hubbard, why, just why!

Tiny even looks confused why she wore this, geesh!

Let’s give it to her for being on the carpet for NO specific reason other than being C Breezy’s side chic!

I want some Ronald McDonald french fries for some odd reason!

Laura Govan, no mam! White shoes with black leather and that blouse! It’s all rather tacky!

Angela Simmons whole look is rather off to me and the shoes don’t match the style of the dress and the makeup & hair is not the best. Wearing Valery Kovalska.
