Billboard Music Awards 2011 red carpet fashion preview: best and worst dressed

After a four-year hiatus, the Billboard Music Awards return tonight with a star studded red carpet fashion bang. 

Red carpet fashion favorites Rihanna and Lady Gaga top the nominations lists with 18 and 12 nominations respectively.  In addition to Rihanna and Lady Gaga, other red carpet favorites at tonight's event will include Mary J. Blige who teams up with Lil Wayne, Fergie, Ke$ha and Nicki Minaj, among others.

Grand diva Beyonce will also be on hand to take the Billboard Millenium Award. 

Tonight's presenters span all music genres, and include Bret Michaels, Taylor Swift, Trey Songz, Kelly Roland, Keri Hilson, Jonas, Randy Jackson, Selena Gomez and Hangover 2  funny guy Ken Jeong. 

So, who will be wearing whom? 

That's the big question for red carpet fashion fans who watch the red carpet just as closely as they root for their favorite artists to take home the coveted trophies.

We expect nothing less than ultra fabulousity from Beyonce, Fergie, Rihanna and Selena Gomez.  In fact, we predict that Selena may land on the best dressed list for tonight's red carpet.  Nicki Minaj may try to give Lady Gaga a run for her 'out there' money, or she may surprise us with something stylishly subtle.

It is after all Las Vegas.  And no, when it comes to fashion, what happens in Las Vegas does not stay in Las Vegas.

Will Fergie rock feathers? 

Will Lady Gaga come as a billboard?  Who knows?

We can only wait and see who makes tonight's best dressed and worst dressed.

Who are you looking forward to seeing on tonight's red carpet?  Who do you predict will make the best dressed or worst dressed list?

Don't forget to catch the Billboard Music Awards 2011 live from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas at 8PM on ABC.
