BRIT Awards Hotties: Victoria, Nicole, Lana and Rihanna
February 22, 2012 in Nicole Scherzinger, Rihanna by Versus

Hotties Victoria Justice, Nicole Scherzinger, Lana Del Rey and Rihanna all showed up on the red carpet at the BRIT Awards 2012 at the O2 Arena last night – and their chosen outfits varied from short, leggy and black to red, long and glamorous.
Who looked best on this occasion?



The close-ups are after the jump!














I like Victoria Justice’s dress i want it ..
she is a really gorgeous girl.
Lana Del Rey- i like her music but the girl has no fashion sense and looks out of place in that dress.. it wears her not the other way round.
Rihanna and Nicole have looked better
Who is Lana del Rey, and why is she famous? She looks kinda like Adele…kinda
She’s famous for botching up her song live on SNL.. and for some fake lips she keeps maintaining are real..
That’s rather harsh Alyssa.
She’s famous for her incredible voice and unique songwriting. I like her style as well – not this dress though, but otherwise I think she’s very cool and beautiful. Fake lips or not.
If by incredible you mean bland and auto-tuned, and unique lyrics you mean cliched, inauthentic, and plain moronic if you actually listen to them.
She may have a good voice, but she is really not that special, she has no personality, I have seen some interviews, and she really rubs me the wrong way, her face is also rather plastic.
She is beautiful, no doubt about it, but her voice isn’t anything special. Her dad is one of the richest men in the US, soooo he kinda bought her a music career, that’s my understanding.
It’s so annoying that people blaming her for her dad being a rich person. Her previous record company denied any claims that her dad paid anything. I don’t understand why people hate rich people so much. Her unique deep voice, talent for writting and the fact the she made her first videos herself are things dad cannot buy you. So get over this.
I don`t think it`s harsh at all. She gave a seriously bad performance…I saw it – it was PAINFUL to watch and listen to. Being a musician is about ability and sorry but LIVE performance ability is essentially credibility in the music industry. I`m not saying it`s easy to perform live but it appears to me that she is putting more effort into getting her hair and make-up done and maintaining her lip injections than ensuring a stellar SINGING performance. Also I recently saw a couple of her videos bc I wanted to be fair before I made any opinions or judgements abt this newcomer. Please (!!!) do NOT call her original…she is a complete RIP OFF! OF JOHNNY CASH – the music via the, melodies, the way she sings, her “style“ of lyricism and her videos…and I don`t even know JCash well! I actually thought they might be covers of his tunes!
Seeing her around at fashion shows etc…I`m sorry but my gut is that she`s a fame whore…wants to be famous or be a part of Hollywood… etc…that`s NOT a true artist or musician…sorry but it`s my opinion and I`m sticking to it.
(i.e. I`m a massive Pearl Jam fan so ya, I`ll poop on every Creed and Nickelback fan out there…fakery just isn`t cool, well…not to me)
From what I’ve looked up there’s more flack than flattery on her. She tried to break into mainstream a few times, and people basically “NOPED!” hard at her.
So next, try the indie spin. Worked so so, and with enough promotion you’ll get somewhere. Then, when she finally has the chance to vindicate herself from all the ‘haters’, she eats it on SNL, and basically proves that everything people were saying about her is true.
There are probably tons of artists out there who are legit and talented, but don’t have the backng she does, and so they take 10 years getting their names out, and someone like Liz Grant comes along..
she was bad on snl but there many videos on youtube where she is amazing singing live. Even her old songs are amazing. So what if she failed to become popular at first?? So many famous singers and actors were rejected ten times before they got a chance and succeeded. If she wouldn’t be interesting and unique video games wouldn’t have watched Video Games. People are giving her so much criticism when Rihanna who has horrible voice, haven’t written a word for her lyrics, can’t dance, constantly exploit herself, imitates sexual behaviour on stage knowing that her main fans are very young is bestselling female artist and everybody seems so fine about that but when a girl with genuine skills, elegance and class comes without any poor little me story people call her fake. Awesome. I just noticed that if you don’t have any characteristics which would make people feel sorry for you like poor childhood, alcoholic father, being ugly at school, being avergae looking or fat that makes you down to earth with healthy attitute and sensible you innitialy lower your chances to be likeable.
*video games wouln’t have been watched 30! million times
Rihanna can sing 10x better, to boot, she had practically finished her first record at 15, and does more on stage than sway back and forth and run her fingers through her hair (lana). And frankly, I have no idea where people get the “emotional depth” of video games. There’s no point in saying “at least they write their own songs” if the songs they write are full of inane lyrics!
Lana Del Rey is the Ashlee Simpson of 2011. She’ll still be in the news, no doubt, but more likely for her personal life, her dresses, and posibly fluctuating lips/weight/ varying hairstyles
Haters will (always) hate.
Cut her some slack. Give the girl a break. She’s worked hard enough to get a breakthrough. She can’t help it if her father’s rich; it’s just bad journalism to say he’s paid for her career.
Look at the facts – she’s widely popular on youtube etc.
I like Rihanna’s voice sure, but I like Lana’s (Lizzie’s) much better – my personal preference. That is just a matter of taste really.
The SNL performace was not good at all indeed, but every artist has ups and downs. She’s quite new and therefor not used to perform and giving big concerts yet. She becomes nervous – that just makes her human.
GO LANA !
Oh, and f*ck all that hipster crap about her not being ‘original’ enough… Originality is sooo last year
everybody has personal preference but one fact, I was in Rihanna’s concert years ago whe she got famous and wasn’t that trashy and she sing baaad and about her movement do you mean almost making love with her backup dancer?
Agree, Neri and Gia. “Haters gonna hate” lol. I’ve watched a performance of hers, the SNL one, and it wasn’t that bad to me. I think she has a better voice than Rihanna by about a 1,000,000,000x because in my opinion, well ANYONE does. I say give the girl (Lana) a break.
LOL You’re a sucker. One of those who likes and buys everything shoved in your face. American, probably.
I felt bad for her after all the flak she got after SNL. I tried watching her videos and…just…gave up. Her first song was alright,but the others sounded exactly the same. Then I read some of the things she’s said in interviews. I think the problem is that she’s been caught in a lot of obvious lies all at once. She said she couldn’t have afforded plastic surgery b/c she was living in a trailer park prior to getting a record deal (not true; her dad is a millionaire, she went to an exclusive Connecticut boarding school). Also not true, as earlier pictures/videos of her prove she had a nose job and lip implants. She also claimed that she edited her first couple of music videos herself, and that she’s ‘embarrassed’ by them–there’s just no way. (Even splicing together tons of vintage clips takes quite a bit of know-how and expensive software.) And the videos were made AFTER she had a record deal, which is not what she led people to believe. She also claims to have written all her songs, but she had co-writers helping her on the album. There are a bunch of inconsistencies and I think the controversy is that she’s hardcore trying to prove that she’s indie, authentic, etc, when in reality, she’s just another manufactured teen star.
I personally just think her music is tired and her face looks…off.
I’m not a sucker so STFU duffy, assuming you were addressing me. You can shove it as well as your oversimplified, ignorant view of Americans, dumb*ss.
Yeah, she pretty much sucks. I also gave her a try on youtube, to be fair. But even in her official videos where things should be polished and perfect, her voice is very pitchy, as Randy would say. There is also nothing remarkable about her songs, musically or lyric-wise.
A perfect example of all style, no substance.
Agreed, anyways, this is about how she looks I suppose, and she is a decent looking girl.
Ashlee Simpson is decent looking too, which si why she is remotely still popular despite her own SNL mess up
Lana Del Rey is famous for being beautiful and talented. Yeah she screwed up her SNL performance – big time. But her lyrics are genuine and her voice in all other performances is fantastic.
I love Victoria’s dress too but her hair looks like a rat died on her head. All of the others’ dresses seem sort of ill-fitting. And Rihanna, Joan Collins wants her dress back.
never heard of victoria but she looks the hottest, the other ones are alright and rihanna looks like skank as usual
I am so sick of rihanna.
After the Chris Brown fiasco she has turned into a poser.
First it was the copying of Lady gaga.
Then it was the cringe inducing ”bad girl” phase.
Now she is trying to pull off sexy/classy/badass all at the same time.
Sorry hun but only Angelina Jolie could pull that off back in th day.
She needs to take some time off the fame scene and evaluate herself. She will cringe when she looks back in 10 years.

THANK YOU. I couldn’t agree more.
I 100 % agree!
I feel so bad saying this but Nicole looks like a man with loads of makeup on, her face is not appealing at all IMO.
i agree with you, her face looks bloated and odd
Plus I don’t like her limp and super long hair. She has a tiny face and it looks odd with such long hair. She needs more volume and get a hairstyle that makes her face appear not so small.
Personally, Nicole Scherzinger’s style is abit early 2000′s for my liking.
I love Victoria Justice, she looks sexy but still cute. I’m a bit tired of Rihanna playing the sexy card and think she’d look magnificent in a classier outfit.
Agreed, Victoria looks the best out of all of them. Nicole S is a gorgeous woman, but she falls kind of flat here – not great, not really bad… just hum. I couldn’t care less about Lana.
And I’m boycotting Rihanna from now on for having anything to do with Chris Brown
Ok, I love Lana Del Rey. Her lyrics are amazing and magical so I’m gonna say that she looks the best here. Nicole could do something with her hair because she has done the same style for years. Victoria looks great as always. And Rihanna, you can take the girl from the trailer park but… nice roots.Not
I agree about Lana, I think she looks gorgeous and Vivienne Westwood is perfect for her.
Yeah, totally agree. I don’t have any idea who this Lana is, but she is gorgeous.
Victoria is cute&sexy, what gives overall a great impression. The other two do nothing for me.
TOTALLY agree gia and Meow
I like Lana too; I think her voice is amazing, though her songs can sometimes give off a slightly depressing vibe.. Victoria looks beautiful- she has the most amazing legs!
“Her lyrics are amazing and magical so I’m gonna say that she looks the best here.”
yes… that makes sense… /sarcasm/
she’s not even Vanilla boring – that would be flattering. And she looks like she’s ripping off Adele with her hair and makeup
Lol.
yes because an eyeliner with light eyeshadows and pale lips were invented by Adele. And I believe I don’t have to justify my music preference for any online music critics.
just before you go, please explain to me how someone’s lyrics are amazing and magical so therefore they look the best. I’m confused. Do you have synesthesia?
Someone either looks good or sounds good, but you don’t look good because you sound good.. that just doesn’t make very much sense…
OMG I don’t know even where to start. I like her music and I like her personally because I got to see her singing life actually and she is stunning young woman. I think she looks great here so does Victoria but I prefer her because I like her as an artist as well.
There, I get it!
And yes, she is very pretty – honnestly, I hope she lives up to the hype, because a lot of people are backinh her. It would be a big disappointment if she doesn’t pan out.
Ive read that she is quite nice too – so maybe that will be her saving grace
seriously you moan that people use class bias against someone like Lana del rey and then use such phrases like ‘you can take the girl out of the trailer park’.
you moan when someone uses being rich against Lana then use make trailer park comments, as if its something derogatory.
I read that Lana lived in a TP after her first album to centre herself..
and i read that her record company totally made that up
yeah she seems so centred with her clearly botoxed face and dumb lyrics about her ‘living wild’. Its like a really bad impression of what she thinks authentic means
Victoria is just gorgeous – amazing figure, pulls off the dress very well, also the hairstyle is edgy & unique.
I don’t care much for Nicole’s dress – as for her face, something seems to be terribly off with it.. like she was drunk, high or idk.. she also looks worn out & older. baaaad look.
I looove Lana’s music & personality, not so much her looks. I know very well that it’s her lips that bug many people, for me though it’s her big elf ears that are the strange/less attractive part on her face. red looks stunning on her.
Rihanna? Plain tacky, just all bad. I can’t pick a single part on her look that I find nice/pretty/attractive.I cannot imagine how she could think even for a second that blonde would look great on her….
I agree the first girl looks great, but let’s get some perspective here. She was born in 1993; Nicole S in 1978. So, yeah, she’s going to look older. But I would argue that without a doubt, Nicole S is more naturally beautiful than Victoria.
oh, not a single word of mine said it was a bad thing Nicole looked older than Victoria.. i didn’t even compare her to Victoria, i actually compared her to her other red carpet looks, on which her face looked muchmuchmuch better/more beautiful/more relaxed IMO. most of the times I find her facial features exotic, unique & attractive.
I can’t believe there are people who were born in 1993 that are looking so grown up..
I guess they are over 18…
wow Victoria’s and Nicole’s bodies are looking so great! love them
victoria looks beautiful, really fresh and elegant. the dresses of both rihanna and nicole don’t do it for me, but at least nicole’s got great hair (is it real though?).
i really like lana’s voice, but her appearance bothers me so much. she looks like a country girl put in an evening gown. it just doesn’t suit her.
I agree with the posters before me, Victoria is gorgeous! I personally don’t like the updo as much, but the dress and overall look is killer.
Nicole has gorgeous skin and a nice figure, however I don’t like the dress or make-up at all on her.
I can’t get used to Rihanna’s new style, I don’t think it suits or flatters her at all.
Lana, I honestly have never heard of, only on gossip blogs. She looks good I guess
Agree 100%
Victoria Justice and Rihanna look good- that is all.
Thank you happy vegetarian!. I was beginning to feel a tad worried that I was the only one who thought that Rihanna looks good. Made me question my taste, lol. But I agree with you 100% about both ladies.
agreed. Don’t like rihanna, but this look is working it for me
i love lana del rey but she normally dresses way better, i dont think this is her best look. i dont know who is victoria, i see her for the first time but she has really nice legs. rihanna somethimes really leave me breathless with her outfit and beauty, but this is not one of that times.and nicole she has a good body and pretty face but annyway she never impressed me, i dont know why.
lana del rey is beautiful. too bad about the over inflated lips but if those are natural, how gorgeous! anyway she’s gorgeous and WHAT A VOICE! i had never heard of her before today. this site is so useful
The Brits were seriously boring this year and I can’t believe that it was during one of my switch overs to Big Fat Gypsy Weddings that I missed Adele’s royal finger!
Lana looks very elagant here and Victoria’s outfit is cute.
The other two don’t look so great. NS’s dress just looks boring and doesn’t really do much and Rihanna looks as though she could be persuaded into a quickie behind the bins outside for a fiver.
haha Nkeon, you are comedy!
You’re one of the funniest posters on this site – I hope you pursue writing or screen plays
Aww Alyssa thanks for writing that! I am looking to do more with my writing so thanks for the vote of confidenece
wow, i love rihanna’s dress and especially those gloves :O she looks sooo good now, slimmer and in a non-slutty dress
I like how delicate her shoulders look. hehe 
i don’t like the shape of her dress…and it’s too long
i’ve seen nicole look better
victoria looks pretty
lana has a pretty and red dress but her face is kinda…off. i don’y like her lips
I’m so glad to see Lana on this site. I absolutely love her. I don’t really like her in bright colors though. She looks great in white.
Seriously? Victoria justice is the only one who looks nice because she is happy and smiling. The rest have awful looks on their faces! Not cute
I might be out of the loop, but who is Victoria Justice? She’s gorgeous! I love her dress.
The others…eh. I really don’t like Rhianna or Nicole’s looks. Lana is beautiful but I’m not a fan of that dress on her, doesn’t seem like her style.
I think she’s like an American songwriter or something but she’s gorgeous !!! Love her dresss
victoria justice is a “child star” on nickelodeon although she is 19 i believe
Love Nicole scherzinger, but her dress doesn’t really compliment her gorgeous skin complexion…her body looks fit as usual
A massive fan of lana del ray, but that dress isn’t great :/
Rihanna – trash
Lana is a mix between Nicole Kidman and Emma Watson
Am I the only one who hates Lana Del Ray’s music? Her voice could actually wake a corpse imo, it’s so droning…she hasn’t won me over yet, she does look lovely though- very elegant.
Nope, there’s a ton of people out there who are with you.
If she cleans up her act and starts living up to the hype that her people are throwing out there, maybe.
Try listening to her Kill Liz CDs and you’ll see why
I don’t hate her music, although I don’t find it amazing. Her voice is nice, but the lyrics are a little bit silly sometimes IMO, so I don’t really get what is amazing about her :/ I also dislike the fact that she lied about her (obvious) lips surgery
agreed, she was nice enough looking before.
To be fair though, a LOT of people lie about surgery. I’m struggling to think of one celebrity that is really up front about their looks.
Even angelina Jolie went through this ridiculously long winded interview about how she is 100% natural (eye roll)
Victoria reminds me of a young Shania Twain in these pics.
Lana looks demure.
Nicole has been looking more and more like a tranny nowadays
Rihanna is trying overly too hard like always.
Wow Victoria looks amazing! Her legs are some of the best I’ve seen. I agree with the person above; she does look like a young Shania Twain.
I was usually not a big fan of Rihanna, but lately she looks fantastic. I love the style/color of her hair, and she really toned up. I think she looks great and exudes a lot of confidence. I don’t think this dress is really classless at all. The gloves may be a little much to some people but I like them.
Wow, Lana Del Rey sure has a polarizing effect on people! I am one of the lovers as I really like her aesthetic; It’s like Hollywood noir with a modern twist. She gets a lot of slack for not being “real”, for fronting a carefully contructed image. But that’s exactly what makes her so intriguing imo. But I must admit I like her videos more than her live performances. And I agree that she was pretty bad on SNL last month,
None of them look good, ugly dresses, Victoria whatsherface has nice legs though.
I think Victoria looks great, am not sure about the hair but it doesn’t look awful to me. Nicole’s close-up is really pretty but that dress is a bit matronly. She never seems to get it right that girl. Rihanna’s dress is not flattering from the front but I kinda like her updo. LDR looks sweaty and the only thing I like is her hair and WHAT is SHE doing there? I like Video games but she sucks live and I’m not just talking about the SNL performance. Her other songs are not so great either IMO.
Victoria Justice looks stunning, although her hair looks like a sad, deflated pompadour… Nicole Scherzinger’s dress makes me want to cry–Why is she wearing a piss yellow prom dress? Whatever. Lana Del Rey is channeling effortless glamor, and she reminds me so much of Golden-Age Hollywood. HOWEVER, despite my endless love for Miss Lana, why the is that dress not tailored? What. Seriously, what the . Lastly, Rihanna looks like a babe, although her dress is pretty heinous, but that seems to be the only thing I can expect from her lately. Am I the only who’s noticed that she’s been looking thinner lately? Watevs.
WOOOW! Victoria is stunning! This is how you make an LBD interesting, which can be hard (take notes Jen An
). I love the whole outfit, the makeup and hair, and though i don’t really know her, the girl is stunning! Beautiful face and hot body.
Rihanna is really liking those deep cleavagey + long dresses that shows legs these days, huh? I think her style has become much better recently (which doesn’t really say a lot, though), and she looks really sexy, but i still can’t stand her.
Didn’t know that was Lana del Rey. I’ve really become sick of her song “born to die” – i hear it approx 3-5 times per day, because all radio stations keep playing it, so I’m over it now. She looks pretty, though,
Nicole… what is going on with her? Not a great dress,and did she do something to her lips??
Gah! Nicole’s dress is Versace. So weird I was watching first face models on the fashiontv channel on YouTube, and saw Karmen Pedaru wearing it. Of course Karmen looks 1000 times better in it, she’s much classier.
http://www.fashionfame.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/versace-spring-2012-sea-inspired-collection.jpeg
Karmen on the far right
Agree, the dress doesn’t look bad at all on the runway!
Victoria is stunning!!! After that, Nicole and Lana look best. Rihanna annoys the hell out of me and looks bad as usual.
I think Nicole looks really good (i’m a bit obesessed) but her dress looks like its doesn’t fit properly, although I love the colour on her. Victoria looks really good also. Rihanna would look way better without the gloves
Victoria Justice is pretty, but generic. She looks like a lot of other generic young Hollywood brunettes these days – eg. Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens, Nina Dobrev. I don’t really like her dress in that picture, but her hair and makeup look pretty cool.
I always thought Nicole Scherzinger has an average face but a pretty good body. I can understand why some people would find her attarctive, but she doesn’t appeal to me. Her dress is ok, the colour suits her.
I don’t really know Lana Del Rey, but she looks good. She has a beautiful face and her dress suits her. She looks the best to me and I find her the most attractive out of the lot.
Rihanna’s dress is ok but the shoes and gloves don’t work with it. I also think the colour of the dress doesn’t work that well for her.
Victoria: She is stunning! I WISH I looked like that at her age!
Nicole: That dress does not fit at all… and I don’t find her to be as attractive as she is portrayed to be.
Lana: GORGEOUS. I know a lot of people don’t like her and I am not sure why. I think she is SO talented and very beautiful.
Rhianna: Not a Rhianna fan at ALL…But I LOVE her hair. A first I thought it was horrible, but its growing on me.
wth.. is rhianna wearing. she looks like a STREETWALKER. lol
Victoria’s body is PERFECT, and the dress is cute.
I do not like Nicole’s dress, I usually don’t like Versace designs. but I think this dress doesn’t fit with silicone bags (boobs). maybe she doesn’t have fake boobs, but her boobs look fake in these pic.
Lana is beautiful but the dress is horrible.
Rihana .. a disaster.
Victoria is really pretty but I can’t stand her hair here – it just looks a mess. She also has a very generic look and isn’t that memorable.
Nicole is absolutely beautiful though I’m not feeling the look here… the dress isn’t that flattering and her hair could look better. I do like that colour on her though!
Rihanna is also gorgeous but I prefer when she dresses not so “costumey/gimic-y”.
I don’t find the last girl attractive, I don’t know who she is… don’t like her face/hair/makeup/dress/etc lol.
victoria has a nice body shes got an hourglass shape, nice dress, nice face, simply gorgeous !
even though Nicole has an amazing body type, that dress is horrible i wouldnt wear it for a Halloween, lana is pretty but that dress cut is really less than attractive.
now rihanna is something entirely different ! WTF ! the dress fabric is nice if it was designed differently it would look perfect, but the cut, the accessories, the shoes and THE GLOVES !!! GLOVES ! my eyes x_x
those gloves are hot
Nicole is overdoing it these days with her makeup. Don’t like Rihanna’s dress much. Lana needed to add some pizzazz to her look- just boring.
Victoria has a sweet face. I feel her outfit is too dominatrix for her. She should wear something more suitable- soft flowy fabrics- feminine.
Victoria Justice is so. fking. gorgeous. I actually really like this dress on her- instead of dressing like every young hollywood starlet (think light colors in flowing shapes), this dress makes her stand out. Although I think that her hair should’ve been made up more sleek, this dress is pure perfection on her.

Why do people think LDR is so hot? She looks like a typical sorority girl, Ambercrombie and Fitch shop worker. Can we get away from that?? Americans are so boring. Blond-bland-blah is what they like. Don’t you stop to think that her hair and makeup have a lot to do with her appeal?? And, again, that many girls look like her???
Wow, ignorant much?
Uh, navel-gazing so that you don’t questions your own values and perceptions??? American!
Oh look here, “ignorant” is someone who disagrees with you. American dictionary, that is.
nice dress here..
http://berileanslimultra.net/
Lana still looks artificial.
Rihanna still looks sedated.
Nicole however is starting to look like Richard Grieco.
Everything physical about Nicole is just perfect. Victoria can never not be gorgeous. Lana’s pretty & she looks good. Rihanna — I just don’t know.
Young Victoria looks the best.Rihanna and Lana look boring. Rihanna is looking at her skinniest in this picture. Never seen her this skinny before. Perhaps the girl is doing loads of drugs.Nicole looks old.
Nah, Rihanna was also this thin during her song ‘rehab’. This isn’t the first time. I don’t like the dress on her and I don’t like the way things are going with her too.
Overall…the first Lady looks the best.
They are all pretty. But I think Lana and Victoria looks the best
I’m so over Rihanna, she has became such a try hard disrespectful person.
ugly duckfaces except for victoria. her smile is gorgeous
