The MTV Video Music Awards 2012 was all about the hairdo!

Miley Cyrus took a page out of Pink’s playbook and wore her platinum ‘do in a pompadour. What do you think – sexy? You be the judge…

And what about Nicki Minaj?

I know we’re used to her “freak show” couture, but she looked more like Bozo the Clown with a little hat with her pinkish blonde mop oozing from both sides.

Rihanna, on the other hand, knows to class it up. Her new, shortly cropped, brunette hair was a perfect look with her long white gown.

Best Dressed

Rihanna: The controversial singer wore a white, slinky backless dress that was one of the night’s most stunning outfits.

Katy Perry: We tried not to like this sheer, floral printed dress from Elie Saab. But it’s Katy Perry. She would really have to screw it up to make it on a “Worst Dressed” list.

Miley Cyrus: Maybe the plunging neckline was too much, but the tight, black gown from Emilio Pucci was a perfect fit. The hair? That’s another matter.

Worst Dressed

Nicki Minaj: As we said earlier, the hairdo was distracting. Paired together with the black beaded jumpsuit and red corset just made the whole look a mess.

Emma Watson: She is so darn cute, but her printed dress from British designer Peter Pilotto lacked focus.

Taylor Swift: This young star can pretty much do no wrong. Well, almost. We expected more than a white pantsuit…
