Did You Know...

... Rachel McAdams donned a wig in the film "Mean Girls". Her hair was shoulder-length because she had just finished filming "The Hot Chick".

Some other wig-outs in films: Reese Witherspoon at the end of "Legally Blonde" because the scene was filmed later on and she had already cut her hair for "Sweet Home Alabama". Elizabeth Taylor in the 1949-version of "Little Women". Jennifer Aniston in "Horrible Bosses" (and might we add that she should consider dark brown because it looks fabulous on her). Bryce Dallas Howard in "Eclipse" (Nikki Reed and Ashley Greene also wear pieces for the film series). Angelina Jolie donned a few in "Salt". Emma Stone in "The Help".

25 Most Beautiful Actresses

20.) ANGELINA JOLIE

Considered by many to be the most beautiful living actress, Angelina Jolie (which means pretty in French), has become a powerhouse A-lister. Known as the modern day Elizabeth Taylor (largely due to the scandals that overshadow her own career), Jolie has made playing the sexpot, bad-girl, siren character look effortless.

Did You Know...

... Nicole Kidman was originally signed on to play 'Jane' in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" with Brad Pitt. She dropped out due to scheduling conflicts and Angelina Jolie was cast instead. Does that mean the world almost didn't have 'Brangelina'?

Best Dressed - 2011 Golden Globes

Green seemed to be the color of the evening along with sparkling sequins and beautiful chiffon. Here's a look at our favorites and... least favorites from the 68th Golden Globe Awards.

OVERALL BEST LOOK:

Melissa Leo (stunning and perfect for her body and age), Halle Berry (this is her signature look and it always works), and Anne Hathaway (very chic and sexy)

BEST DRESS:

Mandy Moore (beautiful. Reminds me of a cross between Drew's baby blue number a couple of years back and Mary Louise Parker's blue stunner, which were both spectacular), Lea Michele (great color on her and great fit), Eva Longoria (very lovely cut and color)

BEST HAIR:

Olivia Wilde (best bangs look), Michelle Williams (best short look), Claire Danes (best up-do), January Jones (best classic style)

OVERALL WORST LOOK:

Helena Bonham Carter (the queen of bad), Christina Aguilera (ughhh), Jennifer Lopez (white eyeshadow... really?), Emma Stone (she's channeling Tilda Swinton's alien look. I hate when your dress, skin, and hair all match), Sandra Bullock (is she donning a wig?)

WORST DRESS:

Julianne Moore (the color is bad enough, but that damn puffy shoulder), Jennifer Lawrence (she did so well at the Critics' Choice Awards... what happened?), Amy Adams (she ALWAYS does this cut... boring and ugly and for goodness sake... change your hairdo every now and then), Angelina Jolie (why, Angie... why? Why didn't you have your hair done?), Natalie Portman (it would be great without that hideous flower and those red platform shoes)

WORST HAIR:

Mila Kunis (the big poof... I'm not a fan), Annette Bening (I think she is channeling Tim Burton), Scarlett Johansson (the slightly-to-the side look isn't working. Natalie tried that too and did it a little better. It just looks messy)

HONORABLE MENTION:

Catherine Zeta-Jones (would've won best overall if it weren't for the fabric of the dress. It's like a set of curtains.) and Katey Sagal (Best look over 50)

Piper Perabo (this would have looked perfect in a bold blue or red color) and Julia Stiles (very pretty dress that we've seen many times before. The hair is not working for me)
