According to Wikipedia, Miley Cyrus turns 18 tomorrow. Happiest of birthdays, poptart. And here's another reason to celebrate: Miley's (relatively) age-appropriate Marchesa dress and fresh make-up on the American Music Awards red carpet:

A giant bow belching a giant train. Did M.C. step on a roll of toilet paper in the women's room? The fabric puddled and pooled all over the red carpet — there are several photos of an assistant (?) adjusting the strands, presumably preventing falls and snags.

Overall, though, this pleases me. I can't fault her for trying something a little different. It could be worse — she could be wearing stick-on gem eyebrows, like our dear friend Ke$ha. I'll take a train over hideous facial jewelry any day, thanks.

(Disclaimer: This vitriol may stem from the fact that I'm getting increasingly bitter about typing a dollar sign into Ke$ha's name.)
