Grammy Post-Party Fug Carpet: Nikka Costa

Nikka Costa didn't get the memo about Formal Shorts:

Namely, that such a creature does not exist. Short are for gardening. For running to Home Depot. For going to the beach. For barbeques, or an outing on your boat. For jogging. For practicing your dance routine with Patrick Swayze. Not for any event at which the press may be present. Not ever.

Daisy dukes and heels. Always a pleasure to see that look attempt a less tacky comeback

Why must these people dress like such street walkers?

If she wore that and walked up and down certain streets in my home town, the cops would arrest her for soliciting sex.

She could also do it on other streets and pass for a transvestite hooker.

Actualy, my rule is no one over the age of 12 should ever wear shorts (beach/excercise exceptions only). Too harsh? Look around, really, the world would be a better place.

Ok, I know the outfit is "questionable" but she's still great looking! Better than a lot of other celebs when they try to look half-way decent.

I think she actually IS wearing pants - they're just 95% skin-colored, finished off with a skinny dark brown cuff.

This is too bad. I loved her "Push and Pull" song from years ago. At least there are no bruises on her upper thighs, ala Sheryl Crow.

Nicky goes to my gym (the Crunch in West Hollywood), but I haven't seen her there in like forever. Girlfriend should start going to the gym again or esle not wear shorts like that!

Like a feather,
Perez Hilton

my god . . . those shorts make her thighs look enormous . . . really enormous . . .

I think she's cute but have no idea who she is. And I agree, no shorts should be worn by adults unless beach, gym, or maybe a sunny afternoon of errand running IF you have the legs. I am no fashion diva and tend to like different looks, but even I know that SHORTS are a big no no.... the last person I remember wearing shorts to an event was Tara Reid (not a great person to emulate).

I'm not sure which is worse: the people who tried to look nice but failed (i.e. Sheryl Crow and Janet Jackson) or the people like this who just didn't give a dang and wore shorts, fleece and/or jeans. Ick!

Okay. Listen, hon. I think you tried for the smokin'-mama-in-hot-pants look that worked for a nanosecond in the sixties. Trust me - it's the fashion equivalent of a one-hit-wonder. No.shorts.for.evening or formal wear! Especially when you're working the skank-ho highlight job with that little extra something provided courtesy of that pilly-looking off-the-shoulder sweater - an aura of grateful-victim-rescued-from-attempted-rape. The shoes aren't doing it for me either - though I'm surprised you didn't opt for the a) faux gold anklet with a charm of the trucker girl silhouette or b) frilly lace ankle socks. In short; a complete shambles.

is that a belt? or are her boyshorts just two-tone with a stray hoop earring stuck to the front?

she makes a cute hooker though. she's lacking that unnerving heroin-gaunt desperation so many of them have.

Her thighs DO NOT look enormous. Yes, it is a tacky and terrible outfit, but she is not fat. And no, gold lamee shorts do not make her fat either. Just because she is not 75lb, that doesn't mean she has enormous thighs.

Just noticed they are brown suede, not gold lamee. I was so traumatized by Beyonce's gold lamee fug I saw Nikka Costa's shorts in gold... Damn you Beyonce!

Yep, gotta jump on the not-fat bandwagon. She has a great body. We're just seeing too much of it.

she looks like a guest star on "charmed". nikka as the evil witch "l'oreal" attacks paige and phoebe and curses them with crappy dye jobs before sensible brunette piper comes to their rescue.

Augh...even her shoes are hideous!

Nikka Costa has a great voice. A REALLY great voice. I guess the trade off for such a gift, for her at least is no fashion sense whatsoever.

I think Sarah Jessica Parker would disagree with your view that formal shorts don't exist.

Looking hot as hell....
SEXY !

I'm voting for "no need to lose weight, just buy clothing that actually fits".

I like the belt, though. Maybe Nikka thought she could sneak into the back of the hall and hang out at the parties, so she'd just wear something "comfortable" and not worry about the fashion police. Wrong, bubelah. Long pants next time.

i think this looks alright. shorts are a big fashion trend right now and if you've got a cute little figure, why not wear it? and this chick does not have enormous thighs, let's not be retarded, please. AND i bet her ass looks great!

check out the necklace...at least she's clean!

I have to say that as a painter and photographer, this girl is a dream of a pinup! What a face and body! This, people, is what women are supposed to look like, figure wise. But this is too little clothing for such an affair. Save this for the poster shoots, lovey.

Look's like Nikki borrowed Lara Croft's short shorts.

'she looks like a guest star on "charmed". nikka as the evil witch "l'oreal" attacks paige and phoebe and curses them with crappy dye jobs before sensible brunette piper comes to their rescue.'

Dear God, so true!

That brought tears to my eyes.

I love Nikka, she has a great voice and a nice bod! (if her thighs are ENORMOUS, then Mary Kate is...normal??) This is just an unfortunate outfit choice.

You guys didn't even comment on the top... *yike*

can someone please tell me who she is?
