Nick Cannon kicked off the program’s pre-show coverage wearing studded gold slip-on Christian Louboutin shoes, and the actor called attention to the striking look while feting entertainers. “Ya’ll see the shoes?” Cannon said. “Click my heels three times and we’ll be at the strip club,” he joked.

“Orange Is the New Black” actress Polanco chatted with the host about her suit that she teamed with champagne-colored platform sandals. The jacket featured a large ruffled embellishment on one shoulder and a plunging neckline that put a generous amount of her cleavage on show. “Doing the couture things because I have curves,” she told the host.

Rapper Lil Mama had on a ladylike peach-colored floor-length princess gown that featured a sheer skirt and a bodice embellished with crystal detail. She completed the outfit with mirrored champagne-colored platform sandals that incorporated a chunky block heel and think ankle strap.
