Whoa! Talk about some serious red-carpet style!

American Horror Story's Denis O'Hare surprised the fashion world by busting out some platform heels for the Golden Globes Sunday night. The actor, who plays the sometimes cross-dressing bartender in the series, sported painted finger and toenails and showed off his feet in some sky-high, Chinese-inspired platforms which shocked some and delighted others. The openly-gay actor was lauded for his gender-bending look, which he paired with cigarette tuxedo pants and a herringbone jacket.

Lest you think this was something spur-of-the-moment and unplanned, O'Hare posted proof that this look was at least hours in the making. He had to get his racket feet taken care of before showtime. And thank god he did -- who would have wanted to see those bruised nails and crusty heels!
