3. After last years disaster, people hoped to see Jennifer Hudson come in style, however, even though she left the bolero at home, her white Roberto Cavalli was just the opposite of flattering.
4. Viggo Mortensen also was placed on the worst dressed list because of his scruffy mountain man beard and over-sized jacket.
