Jennifer Lopez almost didnt wear that famous green Versace dress to the Grammy Awards in 2000 because of a pretty reasonable request from her then-stylist.
It was a dress that other people had worn already, the singer said in a video for Vogue , published this week, breaking down some of her most iconic looks.
You know, my stylist was like, Please dont wear it, somebody else has worn it. I was like, Well, you bought it, and it looks the best, so Im going to wear it, she continued.
And so I did. And it caused, you know, quite a stir, Lopez said with a laugh. I guess every generation needs its iconic kind of Marilyn [Monroe] dress, and this is that dress for this generation. Why it became that? It was just a moment when the wind blew open, and I walked out onto the stage, and it just kinda happened.
