Paz de la Huerta in low-cut black at the Tribeca Gala: busted or simply Paz?

Know this: I was originally going to cover all of the normal people from last night’s Tribeca Ball in NYC, but I was thread-jacked (photo-jacked?) by Paz de la Huerta’s crazy ass. Paz was at the event, looking… well, looking like PAZ, and so now this thread has to start with her. I’ve been trying to figure out the dress code for this event, and I can’t. Some people were wearing business attire, some were wearing full-fledged gowns. Paz struck a (crazy) happy-medium with this simple black dress, and then she fugged it up with horrible hair, a day purse and awful makeup. I feel a bit bad for Paz… she thought she was launching herself into a big new career, but she’s become something of a joke. That dude is her “guest” by the way. I don’t know who he is. But if Paz was doing that to me, I would cry.

Here’s Padma Lakshmi in a boring dress. Padma is so dependent on styling, and she’s just not bringing it here.

Kim Cattrall would look nice if this was a business meeting. Is it a business meeting? I don’t know. If you’re calling something a “ball” I think you should avoid turquoise blazers.

I love Carla Gugino. Underrated actress, underrated beauty. The dress is pretty – the hair is too big, too much.

Julianna Margulies – I love her too. I just wish she would stop with the unflattering Croydon facelift.

Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber. She looks beautiful – I love her velvet dress. He looks… meh. There were some rumors about some relationship trouble several months ago, but his rep shut them down hard. So maybe they’re fine. Hopefully they’re fine. Do you think they’re fine? I don’t.
