Rihanna's Windblown Hair

This risk-taker (and double Grammy nominee!) never fails to catch our attention, but there was something about this punky crop, styled by Ursula Stephens, that stood above the rest. Perhaps it was the way it worked with her frosty shadow, extra-long faux lashes, and feather-shrouded neck.

Katy Perry's Golden Bindi

We know the singer, nominated for her album Hot N Cold, loves a theme (bananas, anyone?). This year's was India. The subtle oblong bindi on her forehead somehow worked with the smudgy gold shadow on the inner corners of her eyes. "Katy brought the bindi from India and we created the look around that," said her makeup artist, Jake Bailey.

We know what you're thinking: Yes, body glitter is usually best left in the past. Unless, of course, you're Keri Hilson and the glitter is golden, luminous and barely there.

We couldn't wait to see what this spectacle-loving singer, nominated for four Grammys, would bring to the red carpet, and Lady Gaga didn't disappoint. We love the lush volume, uneven waves, and shocking highlighter hue.

If you don't look closely, you may not see the subtle metallic threads woven into Beyonce's stick-straight strands. The look, created by stylist Kim Kimble, represents everything we love about Beyonce: It's provocative without being over-the-top. “Beyonce’s nails inspired the strands. They coordinated perfectly and added a little something extra to a simple style. It took me about five minutes to tie them in,” Kimble told us.
