## Keke Palmer in Wiederhoeft

I choose to believe the skirt is a sparkly homage to seams on a baseball.

## Jennifer Hudson in Christian Siriano

Pretty... and pretty precarious.

## Sheryl Lee Ralph in A.W.A.K.E.

She can make any old thing seem joyful, and trust, this IS any old thing. Why do her wrists need wigs?

## Tracee Ellis Ross in Mugler

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302803288.jpg)

She won for a travel program she hosts. I appreciate that she went big, even if her boobs look like an angry owl.

## Ambyr Michelle

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302803742.jpg)

But this. THIS is appropriately some soapy drama. Ambyr won in the "emerging talent" category – once "Younger Performer," but they changed it last year, possibly so they could expand the pool and not have to define "younger" anymore – and indeed she is emerging from within Santa's sack.

## Sal Stowers

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302815562.jpg)

As she's gotten older, Saleisha (an *ANTM* winner) has increasingly started to resemble Ciara, facially. And maybe in terms of her taste for sheers, although this is not dramatic in that vein. It's quite nice, actually.

## Daphnee Duplaix

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302796986.jpg)

Daphnee is on *Beyond the Gates*, and she looks fab in this color. One more reason to love soaps: They employ a LOT of actors who are over 40, and give them juicy things to do. Her character Nicole almost throttled a psychotic interloper, and is now divorced and dating multiple dudes. LIVE, Nicole!

## Tamara Tunie

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302804886.jpg)

The legendary Tamara plays Anita Dupree, who I believe has both a breast cancer storyline AND was haunted by a dead member of her former girl group. That's a lot for a year. (Anita is also canonically an EGOT winner, which I enjoy.)

## Destiny Love

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302808128.jpg)

I thought her ring was a huge gold spider for a moment.

## Karla Mosley

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302808496.jpg)

Beautiful. And the earrings crown it perfectly.

## Heather Tom

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302815610.jpg)

Bless her, but she's always had highly questionable taste and this is no exception. She looks like a funeral flotilla.

## Amelia Heinle

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302808643.jpg)

Maybe EVERY actress to play Victoria Newman is required to have questionable taste?

## Najah Jackson

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302808187.jpg)

This is also dreary, cleavage notwithstanding.

## Jasmine Burke

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302796099.jpg)

She is also on *Beyond the Gates* and was nominated, and she did NOT HOLD BACK.

## Amanda Setton

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302809741.jpg)

She used to be one of Blair Waldorf's cronies on *Gossip Girl*; I didn't realize she's been on *General Hospital* for a while now. She looks terrific. Very sophisticated.

## Maxwell Caulfield and Juliet Mills

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302809870.jpg)

This is your annual reminder that Juliet, a.k.a. that literal witch Tabitha on *Passions*, is married to Maxwell "Cool Rider" Caulfield.

## Sawandi Wilson

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302809914.jpg)

This was one of the most interesting ensembles on a man on this night. I like the concept; the execution – by which I mean the literal making of it – seems potentially a bit slapdash?

## Eva LaRue

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302809948.jpg)

This seems exactly right.

## Finola Hughes

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302811884.jpg)

This is basically a glorified t-shirt dress, but she's glitzing it up with her bracelets, underscoring all our yawping over the years that accessories should not be overlooked.

## Colby Natasha Nixon

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302812995.jpg)

I was with her right until the end, when we got to the shoes. Single toe loops belong in ice skating ONLY.

## Elizabeth Hendrickson

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302813327.jpg)

... for the Emmys, though?

## Mandi Line

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302809436.jpg)

Mandi is a costume designer who handles *The Young and the Restless*. (We interviewed her once back when she was doing *Pretty Little Liars*, and she was a lot of fun.) There must be so much pressure when you outfit people for a living, but I LOVE how intense this is. It's perfect. 

## Mona Kosar Abdi

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302813468.jpg)

This seems ideal – comfy, roomy, great color, perfect with gold accessories.

## Melissa Claire Egan

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302814057.jpg)

She has put on a LOT of shiny body lotion here. I thank her for the blood-red pedicure and lipstick; they really liven up the proceedings.

## Michelle Stafford

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302814168.jpg)

She is 61 years old and looks exactly the way she did when she started on *Y&R* in 1994, but without any obvious traces of intervention that I can see. WITCHCRAFT.

## Kate Linder

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302813421.jpg)

And Kate here is 79, and has made a career out of playing Esther the maid in the Chancellor mansion. I don't even know how often she's on, but she's still kicking – and, as a bonus, started a second career as a United flight attendant in 2022.

## Lauralee Bell

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302816161.jpg)

I like Cricket's accessories; it's been a good day for everyone's add-ons, mostly.

## Genie Francis

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302815719.jpg)

Genie quite rightly won a lifetime achievement awards, although I'm sure it was aggravating to have to deal with it in a boot. One must persevere.

## Eric Braeden

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/2026/11/GettyImages-2302815482.jpg)

I know he's still got some silver stubble on his lip, and that it's been thus for a while, but Victor Newman without a robust mustache never fails to stop me in my tracks.
