Bratz Packs the Red Carpet
Even though it was an early Sunday morning matinee, the sun was blazing down on celebrities as they walked the red carpet premiere of the epic tween flick Bratz: The Movie at Pacific Theatres at The Grove in Los Angeles.
Heating up the carpet first was Kim Morgan Greene, who accessorized with her Bratz Doll-loving daughter. She admitted to one reporter that she can’t count how many Bratz dolls the family has but that the dollars spent were “certainly in the thousands.” The blonde was extremely excited to show off her metallic embroidered jeans that left many of the reporters and photographers chuckling as she passed by (including myself!).
Musicians who contributed to the movie soundtrack took center stage, giving impromptu performances to reporters including the 10- to 13-year-old Clique Girlz, first time songstress Daechelle, Aussie rising star Orinthi and the rambunctious The Slumber Party Girls.
And I should also mention awkwardly running into my ex-boyfriend who is also on the soundtrack: Alex Band! Remember his huge hit, "Wherever You Will Go?" My mom used to tease me that he wrote that about me! Ha! But on a personal note, it's not so much fun running into your ex while you're all sweaty and gross! Nonetheless, stay tuned for more hits from him soon, as he is releasing a solo album later this year.
Janel's blue dress was ordered from China, and she found her gold glittery shoes at Wild Pair. She's half Chinese, so it was important to her to reflect her roots.
Skyler's dress was a purchase from Jean Paul Gaultier and completed with Fendi shoes. John Voight's goddaughter posed way too sexily in front of small children at 10:30 am!
Logan's feather coated dress was from BCBG, and she looked absolutely chic and age appropriate. Nathalia was wearing a coral dress from Bebe Couture (anyone else think that is fashion's greatest oxy-moron?) and broke out into perfect Spanish when a reporter who asked her about her role in the teen flick.
Twins Milly Rosso and Becky Rosso arrived in coordinating outfits, enlightening the reporters with their British accents. They revealed how much they love shopping and California.
Chet Hanks arrived in a sharp grey suit, posed for photographers and quickly went inside without talking to reporters. His parents, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, snuck in through the side entrance and out of sight of photographers, hoping to keep the focus on their son.
Newcomer Ian Nelson looked hot -- I mean sexy hot! The up-and-coming actor let me know that there are too many important things going on in the world to really focus on Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton. He felt working on Bratz gave him great perspective, especially working with young, talented girls.
John Voight arrived to screams from surrounding spectators. Dressed in a black suit, the actor insisted on giving his goddaughter, Skyler, as much credit as possible. In fact, he called himself a costar to her starring role! When asked about his past, John was overheard telling one reporter, “I’ve been a brat in my day.”
The overbearing sentiment of the day was “the message.” Every celebrity spoke passionately about the positive message the movie portrays about four impressionable friends who find empowerment in each other. Perhaps it was a response to the recent struggles of today’s teen celebrities in the most relatable and chicest of ways.
