Mtv movie awards: Stars sparkling in show

The carpet at the MTV Movie Awards was bright red and very glittery. Just about every other starlet wore a sequined dress to Sunday night's tribute to the silver screen.

A newly blond Lindsay Lohan gave the carpet some '70s flair in a sparkle-encrusted pantsuit by designer Pamella Roland. Her look was both fashionable and strategic: Wide legs covered the alcohol-monitoring ankle bracelet Linds was ordered to wear late last month.

Eva Mendes was all blue, gold, and gorgeous in a glittery one-shoulder frock by Stella McCartney. Shepaired the look with gold-trophy-colored shoes and accessories.

Katy Perry donned a Zuhair Murad dress with strategically placed clusters of sequins that kept her decent. Up top, the future Mrs. Brand rocked Smurfette-blue hair - a tribute to her upcoming role in the animated film.

Vanessa Hudgens lit up the red carpet a subtle splash sparkle. The "High School Musical" star wore a summery white Jenny Packham dress with a constellation of sequins wrapped around the bodice.

Audrina Patridge gave new meaning to the term "Tinseltown" in a shiny silver frock. She paired the look with silver Balenciaga sandals and bangle bracelets.

No MTV event would be complete without "Jersey Shore's" breakout star Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi. The diminutive diva - who ditched her signature hair pouf for the awards show -- got all glammed up in a sparkling mini and platform heels
