Hello everyone. It’s the 10th of September and London is currently crippled by a tube strike, meaning I’m unable to get into the Mi-Soul Radio studios to present my mi-week fashion fix with Ronnie Herel.
So I shall be carrying over the normal blog to next week.
In the meantime, I thought I’d post a few shocks and horrors seen on this years’ MTV VMA red carpet across the pond.
Ariana Grande
Everyone adores her, but after a break from the MTV VMAs, Ariana Grande made her grand return with four different looks throughout the night.
This look is so basic.
Perhaps one of her most disappointing look of the night was this black custom Fendi dress, with white polka dots.
Some people commented online: “I’ve seen halloween costumes with more effort than this fit,”.
“Take a look closely, there’s nothing special here,” another said. It’s a shame because she’s a beautiful girl. This look is totally Joan Collins’ Dynasty era and not to be seen in 2025.
Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga didn’t show up on the red carpet, but she quietly made it into the show and reportedly sat next to Ariana Grande.
The 39-year-old singer received the coveted Artist of the Year Award before heading to Madison Square Garden for her Mayhem Ball concert.
She was dressed in a voluminous black gown by Marc Jacobs from the designer’s fall 2025 collection, featuring big sleeves and floral lace embroidery. The look was topped off with a red floral headpiece and dramatic makeup.
I love GaGa but this is simply too Halloween… and it’s only September.
Doja Cat
Doja Cat’s red carpet moment went from daring to bizarre when she pulled out ‘something’ from her clutch and proceeded to chomp it down like a Mars Bar. Maybe she was hungry?
The 29-year-old rapper wore a pastel minidress by Balmain and had her voluminous blonde curls cascading down.
Still hungry I’m guessing, she was seen putting some red lipstick on.
She then bit straight into the lipstick and said “It was delicious.”
“I saw @DojaCat eating lipstick, so now I’m going to start eating lipstick,” MTV later wrote on X.
One fan on X called her “gorgeous like an 80s Barbie doll,” while another asked, “Red carpet or strip Club?”
Another commented, “Cute but kinda boring.”
“Dolly Parton called. She wants her wardrobe back,” another person wrote on X.
Ricky Martin
Ricky Martin showed off his tattoo while wearing a silky, light blue shirt and black pants. While he did look dazzling, his outfit may have been too plain for the red carpet.
The Livin’ La Vida Loca singer made history by being winning the first Latin Singer award at the MTV VMAs.
I don’t have a problem with the shirt… but it’s a wrap and it’s too low. Just the pecs is all we need to see.
Paris Hilton
What is this?
Paris Hilton posed for the cameras in a fiery-shaped minidress, accessorized with a leather choker and gloves. She had her beach-blonde ponytail falling all the way to her waist.
Please get a new hairstyle Paris. Again, she’s a beautiful girl, I’d like to see her looking more natural.
But again, this is too Halloween. Perhaps that was the theme on the memo?
Not her best moment.
Later, we’ll check out all the outfits to come out of London’s O2. It’s The National Television Awards (NTAs) and we’ll discuss which soap star rocked or not.
