    Congratulations to Justin Bieber for his two wins. I have no doubt that 200 years from now people will still be praising the olfactory genius that is Girlfriend.

     

     

    Barf.

    Haha. Audrey said it all!

    The Men's categories show some taste, the female categories, seriously what the hell?

  • Omega says:

    Haha, Audrey. Is that the one with the weird, plastic Slinky bottle? LOL, I think all I did was squish the slinky thing down..I didn't test the juice I don't think. But squished that top down a few times, wondered..'now this probably wouldn't go down the stairs like a real Slinky', LOL. That was it, my experience with GF.

  • Omega says:

    And Dot? Really? The juice and a squished ladybug that hit the windshield, nope, no bueno.

  • Martha says:

    Who does the nominating and the voting?  I am dismayed at the most of the winners of the female categories.  There are many, many other truly wonderful perfumes out there and Justin Bieber's perfume won TWICE.  And Dot is the winner of women's prestige fragrance?

  • Maureen says:

    Wow…Bieber's Girlfriend won 2x???? & Dot, prestige fragrance? Who's voting…all the middle schools in the US?
