In 2013, Selena spoke exclusively with HollywoodLife about what she wore to her first red carpet event. 

“I remember going on my first red carpet with skinny jeans and sneakers like, awesome, this is not a look that I would do ever again,” she said at the time. “I feel like when I wore sneakers and a lot of jeans to red carpets, my stylist was really mortified.”

While speaking with Racked in 2017, Nick called his and his brothers’ early 2000s fashion an “Ed Hardy phase, where you had the hat, and the T-shirt, and the shoes — and the jeans, if you were lucky!” 

“Head to toe. Dark times,” he said. “But we gotta go through the fire to come out knowing what to wear without looking insane.”

In a past interview, Jessica revealed she used to wear “too much makeup when [she] was a teenager.” 

“I wore a full face, and I probably [should have] worn a lot less,” she explained. “I didn’t know that there was the no-makeup makeup look until I was in my 20s. I used to use a foundation stick and just rub it all over my face, and then I would break out. Then, I would wear more makeup to cover the break out. The most important foundation is great skin.”

Kim revealed on her now-defunct website that she had her baby hairs removed because she “had such a hairy neck” but later regretted getting it done. 

“Every photographer would photoshop them out anyway, and I thought I looked better without the baby hairs,” she noted. “I miss them. I think they look youthful!”

The Disney Channel alum remembered her outfit for the 2004 premiere of The Incredibles when she “looked like [her Suite Life of Zack & Cody] character at all times when [she] was going out.”

“I wore this really weird pink camo skirt and this pink furry thing, I don’t even know what it was, but I said, ‘Ooh, put me in it!’ Ashley previously told PeopleStyle. “And instead of wearing it like you would normally wear it, I was like, ‘I am going to do it have one of my arms out and have it going across my body.’ It was the weirdest thing. At that point, you just have to laugh at yourself!”

In a past interview with Marie Claire, the “Flowers” artist revealed she “had some shady wardrobe choices when [she] was about 16 to 18.” 

“I wore this hippie outfit to Justin Bieber’s Never Say Never premiere that I’m like, ‘Girl, who told you — it was not Woodstock, it was a premiere,’” Miley joked.

In a past interview with NBC, Eva revealed that her attempt to embrace a Disney princess in her outfit had gone awry. 

“It was cold and snowing — I don’t know why I’m sharing that, I think I’m trying to justify _ and I had my dress on, but I had to finish my hair and makeup in the back of an SUV,” she explained. “It was a beautiful dress, but the way I put everything together, it was a Princess Jasmine gone wrong. The strapless, purple dress with necklaces and hair in a really high braid — it’s not a good look.”
