Grammy Awards: The good, the bad and the frankly bizarre (yes Lady GaGa) on the red carpet. The Grammy Awards is the biggest night of the year on the music calendar when the A-listers pull out all the stops on the red carpet.
And this year's star-studded bash in Los Angeles didn't disappoint with stars including Beyonce Knowles, Lady GaGa, Pink and Taylor Swift making an impression - both good and bad - as they arrived at the bash.
Lady GaGa, who opened the awards with a performance of her mega-hit Poker Face, wore a jaw-dropping, celestial Armani Prive lilac gown with bejewelled platform heels.

Out of this world: The singer also wore a silver confection that revealed her cheeky side along with a huge spikey headpiece
She completed her typically wacky ensemble with a spiked star sculpture made of metal and two tone blonde curls.
Newly-engaged Katy Perry went for the dominant colour of the evening as she showed off her figure in a nude and gold floor-length Zac Posen gown.
She accessorised her outfit with a jewelled Judith Leiber clutch bag and fiancé Russell Brand on her arm.

Unusually this year, Beyonce disappointed with her nude zip-front Stephane Rolland gown with raised geometric patterning, which was so tight she could barely move.
She added some glam to her outfit with a glittery string woven into her blonder-than-usual hair.
Renowned for her tomboy style, Pink stunned her peers by turning out in a stunning grey and black panelled mermaid strapless gown.
Arriving with husband Carey Hart, Pink gave the feminine outfit a rock 'n' roll touch with her quiffed platinum 'do.
Another singer renowned for her tough, androgynous style, Rihanna also went for a feminine look with a high-necked, white Elie Saab gown and gold strappy sandals.
Sporting a nearly identical blonde quiffed hairstyle to Rihanna was her idol Mary J Blige, who flaunted her curves in a fuchsia column dress with keyhole cleavage.

Like Lady GaGa and Beyonce, teenage country singer Taylor Swift sported several different looks last night.
After arriving on the red carpet in an off-the-shoulder shimmering Kaufmanfranco blue gown, the 19-year-old changed into a simple nude gown to collect some of her awards during the pre-awards telecast.
However former teen queen Britney Spears, who leaped to fame 10 years ago, committed a fashion no-no in her sheer, lace Dolce & Gabbana dress over a black bodysuit.

While many stars were going for typical floor-length couture, some famous females crossed the red carpet boundaries with their extremely high hemlines.
Jennifer Lopez managed to accomplish both floor-length and a mini with her bizarre Versace gold dress with a white panelled front and side, giving the photographers a glimpse of only one of her toned legs.
