Worst-Ever Globes Fashions

01 of 15

PAULA ABDUL

The American Idol judge probably wouldn't get many audience votes for the dress she wore to the 2005 Golden Globes: a busy, frilly skirt with a painfully tight bodice.

CAMERON DIAZ

Where's that hair gel? In 1999, the usually stylish star (up for There's Something About Mary) made a misstep with messy tresses and an off-the-shoulder coat dress.

SHARON STONE

That's Mistress Sharon, to you: In 2003 the actress channeled a dominatrix in a slit-to-there dress, diamond choker and dangerous stilettos. The only thing missing? A leather whip.

MARIAH CAREY

The singer's dress fit like a glove – and not in a good way. At the 2006 Golden Globes, the hitmaker tanked in a way-too-tight halter dress.

DIANE KEATON

A repeat offender: Keaton donned her signature menswear-inspired jackets over tulle skirts in both 2005 (she was a presenter) and 2004 (she won for Something's Gotta Give).

LARA FLYNN BOYLE

Boyle, then starring on 1999 winner The Practice, wore a satin gown that clung to her reed-thin figure – which was nearly as distracting as her showgirl-worthy boa.

LISA MARIE PRESLEY

Daughter of the King or bride of Dracula? In 2005, presenter Presley went over-the-top goth in a grim black gown complete with a floor-length cape.

CYNTHIA NIXON

Nominated for Sex and the City in 2001, Nixon played down her best feature (her red hair) and accentuated her worst (bad posture) in an ill-fitting periwinkle frock.

SELA WARD

The 2002 nominee (for TV's Once and Again) got herself all tied up in a revealing crimson gown held together with what we hope are three strong sailor's knots.

MAGGIE GYLLENHAAL

The actress, just 26 at the 2004 awards, could have borrowed her matronly shift from the wardrobe closet of her '50s-era drama Mona Lisa Smile.

HELEN MIRREN

She took home a delicious trophy for her TV movie Losing Chase in 1997, but the actress's seaweed-like hat, all-business dress and knee-high boots were hardly prize-worthy.

MELINA KANAKAREDES

It's a crime of fashion: The CSI: NY star and 2005 Globes presenter has killer abs – but she was guilty of showing way too much of them in her silver gown.

13 of 15

FRAN DRESCHER

Drescher, a 1996 nominee for The Nanny, tried for Carmen Miranda – but ended up looking Chiquita bananas – in a towering headpiece.

PORTIA DE ROSSI

The Arrested Development actress, then costarring on 1999 best comedy series nominee Ally McBeal, looked ready for the (costume) ball in a pouffy taffeta-and-tulle confection.
