The yr is 2002. We’re post-9/11, however pre–most issues we bear in mind concerning the 2000s (The O.C., MySpace, and many others.). Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are an A-list couple who aren’t but engaged for the primary time.

Reminder: Ally McBeal had simply ended, the present that tricked folks into pondering dressing like a lawyer was sizzling. Additionally, 2002 is perhaps the least trendy yr ever.

Standing behind Lopez is future president Donald Trump, whose present The Apprentice would not premiere for one more two years, so I am not completely certain why he was at an MTV awards present, however such is Hollywood. I used to be genuinely too distracted by Lopez’s outfit to even discover him the primary time I checked out these footage.
For each Inexperienced Costume there is a Bizarre Black Outfit. Very similar to in her relationship with Affleck, Jennifer Lopez discovered from her previous and did higher the subsequent time. However the web by no means forgets.
The 2022 VMAs happen this Sunday, 28 August – will the ‘matches be as memorable?
