Bold Red Carpet Looks That Had Fans Divided

Carmen Electra Did It First, Not Kim K

It may be twenty-plus years since Baywatch star Carmen Electra was at her peak, but she looked positively electric at the 1998 M.T.V. Movie Awards. She looked so electrifying that her look inspired Kim Kardashian to wear a similar ivory backless, torso-less satin dress. The only thing holding the dresses together was a transparent string at the back. On seeing the dress, Carmen posted a side-by-side photo on Instagram for comparison.

But far from being upset that Kardashian had copied her style, Carmen stated she still owns her 1998 dress and that she was flattered that Kim would remake her iconic outfit.
