| Posted: 17 Dec 2012 08:39 AM PST The ladies were out in their glammed up best for last night's VH1 Divas LIVE show at the Los Angeles Shrine Auditorium. Check out the hot red carpet looks from Brandy, LaLa Anthony, Ciara, Keri Hilson, Melanie Fiona, Kelly Rowland and plenty more...
Good friends Brandy Norwood and LaLa Anthony--both handling an introduction on stage during the show--posed it up backstage. And looked fabulous while doing so. Brandy, who intro'd the big Whitney Houston tribute, rocked another edgy origami-inspired dress for the occasion. Her nude Estéban Cortazar--exclusive to Net-a-Porter--asymmetric cutout dress stood out on the carper with her metal ankle cuff heels. Loving the hair. LaLa Anthony broke out some mirrored fabulousness in this silver and broken mirrored embellished C Green dress. She kept up her head to toe metallic look with silver pumps. La's bestie Kelly Rowland was stunning in emerald green as she rocked a silk gown with a thigh-high slit with fringed Nicholas Kirkwood heels. Such a Hollywood glam moment for Kel. Melanie Fiona, on hand to rock the Whitney Houston tribute, broke out a sheen-heavy white tuxedo jacket with her leather pants:
Very smart look that we adore.
Nicole Murphy kept her hot bod covered up as she played around with her "Hollywood Exes" co-star Jessica Conseco. Singer/Actress Kat Graham brought her new fiance on the carpet as she donned a sheer paneled white and silver gown fit for a diva. Jordin Sparks hit the carpet in a gold and black Nicole Miller gown sparkling with a bit of color in her dress. The singer belted out a tribute for Whitney Houston later in the night. "Glee" actress Amber Riley hit the carpet in a nice look and blue pumps.
NeNe & LisaRaye McCoy hugged it out on the carpet. And we would have loved to hear how their convo went down.
The "Single Ladies" star rocked her signature white gown with a trendy metallic silver belt. HATE the hair. Love the dress. Oh hello Ciara. The sexy singer worked the carpet in this black sequin & sparkle Pamela Rolland gown with a short train and sheer paneled sleeves. One of her best glam looks:
Absolutely gorgeous. Another chick who made a statement on last night's carpet was Keri Hilson:
The singer/songwriter, who was a part of the Donna Summer tribute, rocked a feminine tuxedo look by Emilio Pucci. And she paired it with her gold sparkle Louboutin pumps. Doing what they do best.
And rapper turned model Iggy Azalea kept it sexy in this black Pucci gown with sheer cut outs putting her flat abs and curves on full display. Great look for her. Her signature red lip would have made it pop more though.
In its 14th year on VH1, this edition of “VH1 Divas” will once again benefit the VH1 Save The Music Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to keeping music education alive in American public schools. To date, VH1 Save The Music has provided more than $49.5 million in new musical instruments to 1,850 public schools in more than 128 school districts around the country, impacting the lives of over 2.1 million children. The Randomness: 1. L.A. Reid is leaving "X-Factor" to dedicate his time fully to his head position over sat EPIC records. 2. Senator & former Presidential candidate John Kerry is expected to be named Secretary of State, after Dr. Susan Rice voluntarily withdrew her name from the pile. STORY
