What was this Hollywood star thinking?

This week's worst-dressed crew includes Kerry Washington, Kim Kardashian, and Pauly Shore.

"Django Unchained" star Kerry Washington unchained a baffling ensemble at a press event for the controversial Quentin Tarantino-directed flick in Rome on Friday. What do you make of Ms. Washinton's Peter Pilotto-designed dress, which featured a cut-out and cascading ruffles? Fashion-forward or fashion faux pas?

 

The hue of Mena Suvari's Georges Hobeika dress -- which she wore to Jamie Kennedy's New Year's Eve debacle -- may have been festive, but everything else about it was a hot mess, minus the hot. The only things that should ever look cheap and boxy are cheap boxes, not couture.

 

Suffice it to say, we hope Kim Kardashian's baby-to-be doesn't inherit its mother's sense of "style." 

 

Prior to showcasing her growing bump in that lacy black monstrosity on New Year's Eve, Kim sported a thousand skinned skunks en route to Sin City with baby daddy, Kanye West, in tow

 

In addition to hitting the gym, hopefully one of Pauly Shore's New Year's resolutions is to purchase less-revealing swimwear. 

 

Simon Cowell's gal pal Carmen Electra looks fab for 40, but cornrows? Really? She's not a tramp-stamped teen running wild through Cancun on spring break. Ah, the good ol' days. 

 

As if former "Baywatch" babe Pamela Anderson didn't already look enough like a Barbie doll. 

 

If this barely-there getup -- worn by rapper Nicki Minaj -- is any indication of what she'll be sporting on the new season of "American Idol," consider our DVR season passes deleted.

 

And last but not least, we have Lindsay Lohan. We've run out of horrible things to say about her equally horrible outfits, so we're leaving this caption up to you. Have fun and make us laugh!
