(Newser) – TMZ has a theory on the ridiculous hairstyle Tom Brady was sporting last night at the Met Costume Institute Gala: It must have been Gisele Bundchen's idea. Or perhaps what People describes as "a freshly slicked semi faux hawk that slanted to the right" is just the kind of fashion statement one believes he can make when accompanied by a supermodel. Click for more less-than-flattering looks from the red carpet, with extra snark from the Daily Mail and The Frisky. (See The Frisky for even more looks, from the "totally WTF" to the "borrrrrring.")

TMZ's take: Gisele Bundchen MUST be behind Tom Brady's ridiculous pompa-hawk (That's half pompadour, half mohawk.)

After all, as TMZ explains, you'd have to have Gisele on your arm, and Tom's face to even attempt this hairstyle, which the site calls absurd.

Kristen Stewart epitomizes the face every teenage tomboy pulls when their mother makes them wear a dress, notes the Daily Mail. And in Stewart's case, that dress is also quite bizarre.
