MTV hosted the MTV Movie& TV Awardsthis past Sunday nighttime, summoning that mad celebrity glow to come forth and grace its red carpet.
Among the stars in attendance, This Is Us actress Chrissy Metz rocked the red carpet and the stage as a presenter for Best Duo, and seriously slayed in her ruby-red( well, maroon) latex dress.
Im sure if I excavate hard enough Id find the history of latex and manner, but for now, lets just credit this trend to the Kardashians for statement purposes and say Chrissy seemed damn good in it.

What a freaking buzzkill that haters are always gonna hate. Twitter trolls came out of the woodwork to knocking Chrissys ensemble.
Dont expect it to ruffle any of her featherings though, as she clapped back right away on twitter.
#THANKSTHO!
Chrissy has talked candidly in the past about her weight and the importance of torso diversity.
She told Marie Claire,
Size doesnt equate to beauty I dont “understand what youre saying” thats a thing. Well, I do, because the media has told us thin is beautiful. But is it? Because I believe people are miserable not feeing and smoking cigarettes.
Ive had roommates who were thin girls and constantly working out and trying to stay under a certain size. Even the average girl appears 10 pounds heavier on the screen.
This kind of dialogue, of course, very closely parallels her plot on This Is Us, in which her character, Kate, fights with weight loss and torso issues. Others even claim that Chrissy has undergone gastric bypass surgery.
