Katy Perry at 2009 Grammys

2009 Grammy Awards: Katy Perry

February 8, 2009

Katy Perry arrived at the Grammys with a soft look and a solid nomination for best female pop vocal performance. With chin-length hair gently waved and candy-colored pink lips (coincidentally matching her strapless dress), her stare is intensified by smoky eyes and false lashes.

Considering that this look is similar to her Critics' Choice Awards look, dare I say she looks less dramatic than we've seen in the past? Has she nailed a winning look here or is it too little, too late for such a retro style?

I said 'Undecided' because I like the makeup (although red lippy would have been better) but the hair looks too flat.

She just looks off. I don't like the lip color and that is not a good hairstyle for her head shape.

Why does she always have to have that matte foundation?! She's young, with young skin that doesn't need to be caked over.

hmm, I'm not sure about that look on her, there's something off about her hair, and I'm not liking that shade of lipstick on her :S

A big NO! That lipstick color should remain in the 80's and never come back!

The picture is what's getting me...just the way she looks...can't put my finger on it but something ain't right.

It's very pin-up-ish with mod, matte baby pink lips. I love it!

I'm still not completely convinced that Katy Perry isn't just some character that Zooey Deschanel is playing as a joke on everyone. It's a defense mechanism, I cannot accept that Katy Perry exists otherwise.
