Lil’ Kim Is Still Outrageous on the Red Carpet in Bridal-Like Look
Another night, another crazy outfit from Lil’ Kim.
At the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop: The Bad Boy Story Thursday in New York, the rapper wore a lacy Misa Hylton jumpsuit with a train fit for a wedding dress attached to an odd belt tied around her waist and paired with over-the-knee lace-up gold boots. Of course the look was sheer, and of course it was outrageous, because it’s Lil’ Kim.
The 41-year-old rapper has earned a reputation over the years for style that might make Rihanna and a meat dress-era Lady Gaga blush, and she did the same at the debut of a movie documenting the reunion of the Bad Boy Records family for a series of concerts last year.
Lil’ Kim has worked with Bad Boy and its founder, Sean “Puff Daddy” Combs (aka Diddy), throughout her career, so she was front and center. The petite “Crush on You” artist’s look was not much different than what she would have sported years ago.
She wore her most famous (infamous?) ensemble, a purple jumpsuit that left one breast covered with nothing more than a pastie, at the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards.
In 2001, Lil’ Kim let it all hang out in teensy-weensy shorts and matching bra top (the term “top” is questionable) at the Source Awards.
She showed up on a motorcycle — or at least she wanted us to think that — to the 2002 Grammys. That was the year that she and Pink, Christina Aguilera, Mya, and Missy Elliott won an award for the song “Lady Marmalade.”
Looking back, maybe Lil’ Kim’s bridal ensemble was a little more conservative than one that she would have worn back in the day? Nah.
