With the 2020 Grammys coming up, it’s the perfect time to take a stroll down memory lane and revisit celeb looks from red carpets past.
Here are the celebs who look majorly different since their first-ever Grammy awards show.
RELATED STORIES
1. Beyoncé
In 2001, Bey was still part of the girl trio Destiny’s Child. She also showed up to the red carpet in this lingerie-inspired gown.
Things have changed a lot since then, as she truly turned heads with this look in 2019.
Not to mention that now, Queen B is basically the queen of the music world, even when she isn’t making music.
2. Alicia Keys
Okay, I am going to be super honest here: Alicia Keys looked like a travesty at her first Grammys award show in 2002.
Thankfully, she’s improved her style a lot since then.
In 2019, she looked like a vision in red and even proved that she doesn’t need makeup to be beautiful.
3. The Backstreet Boys
My, how times change.
In 1999, AJ seemed to be the only one who missed the memo on wearing a black suit.
While the boyband broke up in the early ’00s, they still attended the 2019 Grammys together.
Which, as you can see, they are looking much more dapper and coordinated in their black suits.
4. Lady Gaga
The “Born This Way” singer has had quite the style transformation over the years.
When she attended her first Grammys in 2010, she wore this unique number that leaves me with so many questions. Namely, HOW DOES SHE SIT DOWN?!
These days, the singer and actress’s style has evolved to be much more sophisticated.
Case in point: this gorgeous silver sequined dress that she wore last year.
With that side flair, it’s still got some signature Gaga in it! Just not as over-the-top as some of her previous award show ensembles.
5. Miley Cyrus
Miley was still a teenager when she first hit the Grammys in 2008.
Back then, she had black hair extensions and a sequined mini dress. She was truly Disney’s little star.
Fast forward to the 2019 Grammy show and it was like we were seeing a different person.
She looked SO grown up dressed in an oversized black blazer and matching trousers.
6. Ricky Martin
Ricky’s blessed with some good genes.
He’s barely aged since his first-ever Grammy awards show in 1999!
Also, a lot more than just his style has changed since then.
The singer has come out as gay, gotten married, and even has four kids.
He’s also grown quite the unique mustache!
7. Dolly Parton
Surprisingly, not much has changed for Dolly since 1977.
Besides the fact that, if possible, every year she becomes more of an iconic legend than the year before.
She still has an amazing figure, that signature huge blonde hair, and a sultry fashion sense!
Hopefully, she will be making an appearance at this year’s Grammy Awards!
That would be amazing to see!
8. Meghan Trainor
The “All About That Bass” singer was clearly all about showing some skin as she wore skin-revealing dresses to both awards shows — and looked gorgeous while doing it.
The major change from the first awards show to the last, however, was who Trainor brought as her date.
While she brought her dad to the show in 2015, she was joined by her husband, Daryl Sabara, (yes, from_Spy Kids_) in 2019.
9. Katy Perry
The “I Kissed A Girl” singer looked a bit like one of the Jersey Shore girls in 2009 with her extremely tanned skin.
She was also sporting black hair.
These days, Katy has dyed her hair every hair color under the sun.
She’s even experimented with lots of styles, which brings us to this 2019 pixie cut!
10. Kacey Musgraves
The “High Horse” singer has come a long way since 2014.
Back then, she had ombré hair and a very girl-next-door look about her.
But the glow-up was real.
At the 2019 Grammy awards (the night she took home album of the year, BTW), you could tell that Kacey has come into her own with her jet-black hair and confident stance on the red carpet.
11. Jennifer Lopez
And finally, we come to Jennifer Lopez, who clearly hasn’t aged a day since 1998.
She’s still as gorgeous as ever. In 1998, she kept things simple with a big, messy bun and a skintight blue dress.
Then, in 2019, she turned heads with this ensemble.
Taking a page from Pharrell, she wore a huge hat on her head.
But honestly, nothing will ever be as iconic than that 2000 Grammys Versace dress, which she even famously wore again in 2019.
The 2020 Grammy awards are coming up, and hopefully, we will get to see some amazing new looks (and maybe even a few failed ones).
It is always fun to see the best and worst dressed of the bunch!
