Cranky Beauty Pants: Angelina Jolie and Natalie Portman at the Golden Globes

by Cranky B. Pants on 16 January 2012 · 23 comments

I think we were all tuning in to the Golden Globes Sunday night to see what Ricky Gervais would say. That’s where I was expecting to be surprised and delighted. If I were going to gasp, it would be at something Gervais said. But then the Globes red carpet gave us all an amazing gift. Angelina Jolie and Natalie Portman in a “who wore it best” showdown worthy of every tabloid.

Angelina Jolie…

Natalie Portman.

And it’s not just the striking similarity with the dresses.

We also have the buns, the diamond earrings and the eyeliner. I’d ask who you thought wore it best but it’s really no contest.

I actually feel kind of bad for Natalie Portman.

Okay, fine. Who wore it best?

I think Angelina’s ensemble looks more polished, though I prefer the colour of Natalie’s dress.

of course Natalie wins, hello? She’s stunning, young, fresh!

Angelina looks too pale, too thin, too everything

I’d normally vote for Angelina Jolie but I don’t think she looked particularly healthy last night. Not happy, just hungry.

they both look really good, but Angelina seems to have more of the attitude-thingy for a dress like that! so Angelina!

I really love Natalie’s look. It was one of my favorite dresses of the evening. I love the pink edged with red. The way she’s standing is very elegant and natural. Angelina’s look is too severe for me, and I’ve never liked her Sophia Loren-style eye makeup of the last few years. I don’t like the cat eye look, and it’s only emphasized by red lipstick. Why is it that after having children Angelina has become skeletal? To me, she would have to gain some weight to be really beautiful again.

The fact that Angelina paired her red lipstick with the red fold on her dress AND the red clutch (maybe even shoes?) bugs me to no end.

Yes, too matchy-matchy!

I also gasped when I saw this on the red carpet. Agree with those who feel a bit sorry for Natalie. However, I could not help but keep thinking of Angelina looking a bit like a cartoon from early Disney out of Snow White or something…the dark hair – I would have lost the red purse and put a small black tiny line on the bottom edge of the red fold at the neck.

I love your Disney-character observation! So right!

Is Angie too thin? Yes. Does she look freaking gorgeous here despite that? Hell yes! Hands down, she looks amazing :) Natalie is such a beautiful girl but that dress is actually making her look… chubby. Even though I know she’s not, the gathering at the waist and the side train make her look so much bigger than she is. It is a very pretty color on her though.

Natalie Portman chubby? Seriously? Put on your glasses, sister. Angelina looks like the Ice Queen. Too ghostly white and severe. Yuck!

Loved Angelina Jolie. Natalie would have been helped if her skirt at least was a soft satin instead of a stiff bustly thing.

I saw the show. Angelina looked amazing. The dress was a perfect fit and the color was stunning on her. So dramatic. It’s not a great photo and her arms look positively skeletal. I didn’t notice that on TV.
Natalie also looks wonderful. Love the bright color.

Definitely Natalie looks the best here – Angelina has been looking great lately, but she looks like a walking corpse in this dress.

Makeup= Angie. Dress=Natalie. If it wasn’t for the great colour of Nat’s dress, her looks is rather yawn.

On the fit of the dress – Angie, no contest. It looks like Natalie was hastily wrapped in a tablecloth. I agree with Nicole, that side sash/wing thingy makes her look wider than she is. The pink is nicer however, and from a physical health perspective as well as makeup , she looks great. A small collision with someone and Angie’s arms look like they’d snap in two.

Agree, agree, agree and agree!

Natalie by far…… Angelina looks hungry, grumpy and well, a bit sick. Natalie looks youthful, beautiful, fresh and fit. I love the pink and red together, especially on her. Angelina always looks so severe and as if she is holding her breath or something…so frail too. It’s her I feel sorry for, not Natalie! Natalie’s got it goin’ on!!
