The White House Correspondents Dinner, jokingly referred to as "Nerd Prom," brings in guests from all over for a night to honor the press' coverage of the administration. This is quite possibly the only night that you will see a swimsuit model accept an invitation to dinner from a journalist who writes press releases in a cubicle. The press and media outlets not only have attendees from within their own organizations but also invite big name celebrities and politicians, as well. Over the years, it has become one of the hottest tickets in town, and by town, I mean our nation's capital ... but anyways, with the biggest names in attendance, a lot of effort is put in to make sure you are set to impress on the big night. Sometimes they're hot, and sometimes they're not.
The Attire: HOT
Vivica Fox
Vivica stunned in a beaded gown by Jenny Packham.
Katie Lowes
The "Scandal" star looked elegant in this curve-hugging gown from Talbot Runhof.
Kendall Jenner
Kendall was the only member of her family to attend but certainly represented them well.
Tom Hiddleston
Not only does he look extremely dapper, but he has no problem acknowledging the real star with him on the red carpet.
Candace Cameron-Bure
"The View" host and "Fuller House" star looked flawless in floral for the big night.
The Attire: Not
Raven-Symone
Dear "That's So Raven", that's SO not hot! It's a good thing Candace was there to carry "The View" team because she definitely didn't get any help from Raven.
Helen Mirren
Although we have to respect the purple tribute to Prince, we don't have to feel bad enough to like this gown. The fit does nothing for her and the lace looks cheap and immature. Such a shame for someone who usually looks so elegant.
AnnaLynne McCord
We get that you're in the nation's capital, and you're really feelin' the red, white and blue while you're there, but I think there was another way you could've gone instead of with this graffiti-starred dress.
Nikki Bell
I can't help but feel as though, after being shown this dress, I am going to be asked what I see by a psychologist.
Connie Britton
This gown left the "Nashville" star looking frumpy and incomplete.
The Speeches: Hot
President Obama
The crowd responded positively as Obama let loose and showed off his sense of humor at his final WHCD during his Presidency. What better way to finish than with a classic mic drop. #ObamaOut
The Speeches: Not
Larry Wilmore
The comedian got very little love from the crowd throughout his more controversial than humorous speech. What he did get was a middle finger and a few boos. Not even the First Lady could fake her smile until the end.
