Jessica Simpson’s Style Award, Blake Lively’s New Hair and More!

Apr 27, 2011 @ 5:35 pm

Jessica Simpson took home the Style Icon of the Year award at Us Weekly‘s annual Hot Hollywood party in L.A. last night, and she seemed pretty surprised by the win. “I’m not really that stylish, but I do know how to make a woman look beautiful, and when I want to look great, I know how to make it happen,” Simpson (in Etro) told reporters. She posed with Kathy Griffin (in Dolce & Gabbana) on the carpet, who told us, “I love Jessica Simpson! I’ve known her for a long time and she looks adorable.” Back in New York, Blake Lively showcased her newly-red locks, while Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos took in the Tribeca Film Festival.

Pick Your Favorite Palin Makeover: Tina Fey or Julianne Moore?

We loved Tina Fey‘s spot-on Saturday Night Live impression of Sarah Palin (left), and now another actress is portraying the famous former Alaskan Governor: Julianne Moore! The actress (right) plays the politician in HBO’s upcoming film Game Change, which tracks the 2008 election and is produced by Tom Hanks. Moore went for a full Palin makeover, ditching her red hair for a brunet updo, rimless glasses, and lip gloss. And the similarity calls for a double take! But we want to hear from you! Who looks like Palin most—Moore or Fey? Vote below!
