I am usually a big fan of the beautiful Cate Blanchett; the actress makes great choices when it comes to hair, makeup, and clothes. But I'm not sure what she was thinking at last night's Costume Institute Gala with this teased-up up 'do. What do you think?

She looks like the Bride of Frankenstein!
1the hair wouldn't be so bad if the makeup were a bit better. she looks scary.
2bad hair, bad makeup... did she do it herself?
3i think its her eyes and the color palatte
4It really isn't so much the hair as it is the makeup - it's too harsh!
5I think the hair is fine but she is WAY too thin and that makeup makes her look like a zombie.
6It looks horrible, the whole makeup and hair is just too much!
7It looks horrible, the whole makeup and hair is just too much!
8I'm pretty sure a colony of small woodland creatures are living somewhere in there. And her make-up looks icky.
"Party like a rock star, pound like a porn star, play like an all star!"
9For some odd reason, this is a big style for high fashion events and I just don't get it. WHY???
10I adore Cate and she usually gets it right in the style dept...except this time. Don't like this look at all.
11I'm not really feeling the entire look.
That shadow color is so pretty on her eyes, but she's
kinda zombified with the way it's applied. And I'm really not partial to the hair.
12yeah, the whole look is bad -- she looks like death. Her fashion decisions are sometimes very good and sometimes very bad.
13hair, makeup, dress are all bad. and she definitely needs to put on a few pounds.
14The hair's fine it's the eye makeup that undoes the whole look. Too harsh and violet/mauvey.
15-JeDa
What I don't like are the copper rings around her eyes or her bony shoulders. Can't imagine what she looks like in real life, considering the camera adds pounds!
16I felt bad saying hate it, but i am glad to see i am not alone. I don't know i think it is the colors because that doesn't look good on her.
17~*~The Penguins are slowly stealing my sanity~*~
ewww for both make up and hair
18L!VE !N LOVE
????? she usually pulls off these severe hairstyles, but not sure this time.
19This woman used to be beautiful and elegant! I'm sorry to see that the Hollywood standards got to her. She's so bony she could put someone's eye out walking past them.
20honestly, i think this is the best she's ever looked. never noticed the bone structure before, she's very pretty. hair, i'm not so sure of, i don't hate it but something isn't "right".
21i'm pretty sure cate blanchett can do no wrong. she's gorgeous no matter what.
22Oh, man. I love her but the combo of the hair and the funny bronze eyes is too weird...she looks like somebody dragged her out of a nap to go on the red carpet.
23I'm loving Cate's look. Her hair looks fabulous - she definitely pulls the look together well. How perfect is her skin, it looks great. Loving her make up too - very glamorous!
24Hate the hair, hate the make up but Kate is sooo cool. I'd never have the guts to put on some of the awesome stuff she wears.
25I think something's living in her coif.
26It's pretty heinous. She usually looks beautiful though, so I'm willing to pretend this never happened.
27she looks like the olsens twins...
28It looks good until you get a close up shot of it, then it's just scary.
29hate it it looks frizzy and sloppy. It looks worse on jessica biel though.
30She's a beautiful woman, but she looked terrible at the Met. Not only the hair, but also the make up were horrible.
31i hate the "crown" style
32I think, possibly, if she did her makeup differently the hairstyle would look okay. She's got too much going on to pull it off. Also maybe if the dress were more somber and dark it would be an interesting look. She looks dead.
33This makes her look a bit older too.
34it reminds me of what your hair looks like at the end of the day when you wear a headband and make a poof in front and at night you take off your headband. the makeup isn't helping either.
35undecided. What`s it like from the back? She`s looking a bit haggard these days....Must be such hard work swanning around on the old red carpet......
36on anyone else, i would hate this hair. but it looks good on her with the dress she has on.
