Estelle at 2009 Grammys

2009 Grammy Awards: Estelle

February 8, 2009

Once you get Estelle's Grammy-nominated, super-catchy "American Boy" in your head, it's tough to forget. And tonight, the British rapper and songstress goes for a look you'll probably never forget, with this somewhat futuristic silver and gold look.

While Jennifer Hudson went with multi-toned eye shadows as well, Estelle takes it to a whole new level with dramatic fake lashes, intense silvers, a hint of gold, and highly-defined eyeliner. She tops it all off with glossy lips and some reddish highlights in her short locks. Are you mad for metallics?

What the HECK happened here? Doesn't she have a stylist? If she does, he/she should be fired immediately!

I don't think this picture does her justice. i saw her on TV and it was a gorgeous purple eyeshadow!!

I mean I like her and all don't get me wrong, but she looks like a man who crossdressed in this picture.

She looks like a man with all that eye shadow....

Her look is an homage to the 60's soul singers...get a life.

Egad!!! That is a horrible picture. She actually looked better performing but you just zoom in on all the wrong places here.

I like it too, it's a play on a mod look just done in metallics! What's throwing me off is the face that i think she has some "gold ones" on her bottom teeth?

I actually like it. I think she has really big eyes which is perfect to play up makeup like this, I can understand.

She looks like a doll! Not good... it's way too much

Oh Estelle, too much make-up, less is more ;)

way too much, but considering how we usually see estelle i think this dramatic eye makeup is pretty much her standard style.

She actually changed her makeup for her performance and it looked amazing, she had glittery purple eyeshadow on during the performance with Kanye that looked really good!

This is wayyy too much and these are not the best colors for her, some purple or green eyeshadow LIGHTLY applied on her eyelids would have made her eyes stand out (in a good way) way more than that I think...
