Piers Morgan mocks Billy Porter’s ‘absolutely ridiculous’ Oscars outfit

Billy Porter is known for pushing boundaries on the red carpet, and he certainly didn’t disappoint at this year’s Oscars .

The Pose star turned heads in a stunning black velvet full-skirted tux-gown by Christian Siriano.

While most people loved the look and it featured on many Best Dressed lists, there was one person who wasn’t a fan – Piers Morgan.

The controversial presenter took to Twitter to mock the outfit, labelling it "absolutely ridiculous".

He wrote: "Am I allowed to say this looks absolutely ridiculous?"

But many people didn’t agree and loved Billy’s outfit choice.

One wrote: "Are you really so threatened by a handsome man in an impeccably tailored outfit that happens to involve a skirt?"

Another added: "Being that you know nothing about fashion, sure. But you’re wrong."

Others agreed with Piers, and were quick to share their views on the look.

One man wrote: "One doesn’t have to know fashion to be able to see how terrible that looks."

Another replied: "He’s not wrong though. He looks dreadful."

Some people had other questions about the look.

One asked: "I just want to know how it fits into the seat."

Billy’s black dress wasn’t the only outfit Piers took issue with, and he also took a swipe at Linda Cardellini’s bright pink dress.

She wore a frilled fuchsia pink number with a mullet hemline that was cropped short at the front and flowed into a long train at the back.

The dress made the Mirror’s worst dress list from last night’s event.


The 43-year-old Bloodline star teamed the frilly look with black heels, a baby pink bow belt and wore her hair up in a messy bun as she grinned for the cameras.

Piers shared a photo of the dress with the caption: "Bird apocalypse."
