sorry, retracting my previous statement...just saw the back of TS dress, definitely my best dressed, that dress is divine, Rihanna would have to be second...Fergie for sure is my worst dress...she just look gross to me from head to toe...

Rihanna's dress was the bomb...GP & TS looked lovely but they were far from the best dressed...maybe TS but definitely not GP...
