On September 16, George Santos criticized Shailene Woodley’s red carpet look for this year’s Primetime Emmy Awards. Aaron Rodgers’ ex-girlfriend made a red carpet appearance on September 14 at Peacock Theatre, Los Angeles.

Shailene Woodley wore a look from Balenciaga featuring a blue top with a plunging neckline and embellished golden loose pants. She accessorized her outfit with a multicolored, chunky diamond necklace by HOWL and maroon leather gloves.

Shailene Woodley garnered much attention on the internet, with many condemning her outfit. Most recently, the former US Rep., George Santos, slammed Woodley’s look as ‘ridiculous.’ He even blasted the designer label for styling the actress in such an outfit. George Santos wrote:

“Not bullied by Joan but I’ll Bully her. She looks ridiculous and I must say Aaron Rodgers dogged [dodged] a bullet! Balenciaga continues to fumble one look after another! I’ve seen blind people dress better!”

Zack Peter and Megyn Kelly also criticized Shailene Woodley’s Emmys red carpet look

The pop-culture commentator Zack Peter blasted Shailene’s Emmys look and called it ‘plain’ and ‘awful.’

“Well, no wonder Aaron [Rodgers] dumped her. This Emmys look on Shailene Woodley [is] just plain awful,” Zack Peter said.

Furthermore, Megyn Kelly reacted to Woodley’s look, saying that it looked ‘ugly’ and ‘unflattering.’ Firstly, the political commentator compared her top to a ‘wrestling singlet.’

“The top looks slightly like a wrestling singlet. Like, it's extremely low cut, and it almost doesn’t look intentional, so it almost looks like she got attacked with some scissors or something. I'm not sure, but it's very, very low cut and, I don't know, it's like too droopy around the middle.”

Megyn Kelly went on to criticize her loose pants. She compared Shailene Woodley’s bottoms to a ‘tan burlap sack’.

“And then the pants. Are they pants? They look like pants to me, with, I don't know, if that is cheetah dots...leopard. I can't tell from any of the pictures. I just know it's ugly. It is ugly. This looks like a tan burlap sack that she put on not one but both legs, which is also pooling on the floor as if she didn't have the extra money to hire a tailor to come and give her a proper hem,” Megyn Kelly said.

Lastly, she also condemned her hairdo.

In related news, Shailene took home her first Emmy Award for best guest actress in Paradise, which was the show’s only win this year.
