Nicki Minaj - Gaga’s menswear left the door open for Nicki Minaj to pick up the wacky style slack, and boy did she try to deliver. Nicki styled her Rubik's Cube-reminiscent dress with her usual colorful hair, but added slippers flooded with stuffed animals and a medical face mask. Will someone tell her the SARS outbreak is over? Or maybe she’s allergic to her wacky costume. (Photo: Gregg DeGuire/PictureGroup)

Lady Gaga\r - Everyone wondered what Lady Gaga would wear after her multiple eclectic outfit switches last year. This year, she stepped up her costume antics to a new level and cross-dressed into a male alter-ego she calls “Jo Calderone.” Her menswear included a Dior Homme jacket and Brooks Brothers pants. Almost makes you miss the wackiness of the space age and meat dresses, right?  \r\r(Photo: Anthony Harvey/PictureGroup)

Jay-Z - Jay-Z took it back last night to jeans and a white tee with Timberland boots, a New York cap and a chain. No “grown man swag” suit for this awards show, which didn’t matter.
