Not surprisingly, the "Burlesque" premiere in Los Angeles was characterized by sexy (and sometimes skimpy) showstoppers.

Some of the more notable red-carpet looks included those of film stars Christina Aguilera (in a beautifully draped, spearmint-colored Elie Saab gown) and Cher (who got leggy in a sky-high LBD with lace overlay), as well as actress Debi Mazar (who made a statement in a burgundy jacquard Carolina Herrera dress with peekaboo neckline).

Country crooner Julianne Hough (in a gold Georges Hobeika dress and gold peep-toe platforms) and Rebecca Gayheart (in a raspberry jacquard Monique Lhuillier sheath) also left imprints.
