Tina Fey Not Wearing Zac Posen to Oscars

While there are betting odds on almost everything having to do with the Oscars, here's one sure thing -- Tina Fey will not be wearing Zac Posen come Sunday night.

After donning the black and white strapless prom-worthy frock by the designer to the Golden Globes in January, Fey was voted "Worst Dressed" by E!'s Fashion Police.

Zac Posen himself was looking for sympathy in the aftermath of the debacle. "After the Golden Globes, she fired her stylist and canceled the dress she'd ordered from me for the Academy Awards," Posen was overheard saying during New York Fashion Week.

And though he made himself out to be the victim in the matter, it was blown out of proportion.

"There was no 'firing' nor was there a Zac Posen dress that had been lined up," Fey's rep Cara Tripicchio clarified to StyleList.

"I believe a very preliminary discussion was had between [stylist] Anna Bingemann and Zac about wanting to dress Tina again -- she wore his dress last year for the Oscars – but it was too early to make any sort of commitment."

As for Fey and Bingemann not working together for the Oscars, the actress had already committed to working with Vogue, as a benefit of appearing on the magazine's March cover and participating in a story called "An Education: Tina Fey, Learning to Dress Like a Star."

We bet this smart girl learned her lesson -- stay tuned.

And check out one actress who probably won't be dressed by Vogue.

That dress isn't even 'prom-worthy'!! I don't know of any teen-age girls who would wear that awful dress! The first mistake Zac Posen made was choosing that material... ugly with a capital U! It makes her breasts look like the eyes of some creepy pre-colombian mask.

What's uglier, the dress or the scar on her face?

All the whop-de-do, of who wears, what clothes where, and how they look to others, is crap!!! Who in the hell, cares, or gives a damn, that you people who are, "phony deadbeat-can't get-a- real-job,-so-I- am-a-hollywood-fashion-critic" have to say?!!!! Get a job, THEN MAYBE, just maybe, you "critics", MIGHT, get a life!!!!!

You're right Tom!. and the 4 years of wrighting for SNL, 7 years as Head Writer and 2 years of having her own show before anyone had even *heard* of the Quitter with a Litter are completely irrelevant!
