Carrie Underwood, who played hostess at the annual awards show for the third consecutive year, usually hits swanky red carpet events in metallic a la, mode or perfectly pink numbers, but tried something a little different this time.

Katherine Heigl experienced a fashion flop in blue mermaid-style Farah Angsana gown, which she paired with Jimmy Choo glitter heels and a shockingly platinum 'do DON’T.
