MADONNA HEADS THE WORST-DRESSED LIST

Madonna topped Mr. Blackwell's 33rd annual Worst Dressed list Tuesday and received a scolding from the sharp-tongued critic for luring America's youth toward what he called a fashion trend of overexposure.

"What if your daughters and the youth of America were to clone Madonna?" Blackwell asked, standing before a photo of the singer-actress in a bare-bosomed gown.

Following Madonna on the list were actresses Geena Davis, "Big Bird in heels," and Glenn Close, whom Blackwell described as "Dracula's Daughter." Television star Delta Burke ranked fourth and shaven-headed singer Sinead O'Connor was fifth.

Others on the list were actresses Shirley MacLaine, Juliette Lewis, Demi Moore, Goldie Hawn and singer LaToya Jackson.

But Blackwell praised Hillary Clinton, predicting she would bring a "fresh, intelligent, bright new look" to the White House.
