2NE1’s CL talks about her controversial SBS Gayo Daejun outfit

[kishikiari.livejournal.com]

Leader of 2NE1, CL is infamous for her outlandish clothes and style. Some would even say she’s the Korean version of Lady Gaga, that is, in terms of style. On a recently aired episode of KBS 2TV’s Entertainment Tonight, this princess of hip hop revealed her thoughts on her past outfits and costumes, including the controversy behind the black spandex outfit she wore at the 2009 SBS Gayo Daejun that revealed both her stomach and the tops of her bra.
On the show, CL commented, “The outfit was not that revealing. However, it was a bit unconventional and rebellious. I like clothes that are unconventional rather than those that expose a lot.” Although this statement will certainly raise eyebrows, CL has finally given her side on this controversy.
In addition to CL’s comment, fellow member Dara stated, “With the new year, I become one more year older and more tired.” Dara, you never fail to make the atmosphere more lighthearted.

hahahaha, just cruising in to say the same thing myself. Sorry CL, you're pretty fierce, but you're no Gaga.

[deazaskia.livejournal.com]

[raspberryjaaam.livejournal.com]

Do I spy cameltoe? O_o I love you CL but I don't want to see your cooch

[hyphensaregreat.livejournal.com]

I was just about to say that. D:

[erbalurbal.livejournal.com]

until I see CL on stage with a birds nest on her face, she should never be compared to gaga.

But I am glad that she is unapologetic about her fashion choice. If you wanna wear weird shit go for it and let haters hate.

omfg cameltoe =/.

I'm really happy she's fierce and unashamed and whatnot but sorry honey, that outfit was pretty damn revealing imo.

[cookie-nut.livejournal.com]

Eh? I don't get the Gaga comparisons but good for her for standing up for herself.

[tees2mai.livejournal.com]

why compare her to Gaga?

[uglypricetag.livejournal.com]

lazy journalism

[aloakley.livejournal.com]

as long as she's not wearing micro mini 'oh look at my crotch' outfits...though cameltoe is also dnw :/

[camouflaged.livejournal.com]

LOL YES GD is more Gaga. Gaga would have totally worn the plastic flower coat he wore for Chuseok as a cape or something. And I totally think that if he could work it in, GD would wear those crazy ass shoes in the Bad Romance video. :p

I don't get why this is wrong while SNSDs shorter than short shorts and stomach revealing shirts are okay o.o

[erbalurbal.livejournal.com]

I guess you have missed all the wank they get for wearing what they wear. I don't see how their shorts are that bad though. They are also not showing their bras and wearing a body suit

[misuslovett.livejournal.com]

I still don't see why this outfit sparked "controversy" lol

[tabi.livejournal.com]

Neither did I. It's so tame.

[fireatwill.livejournal.com]

No. They NEVER get wank for looking like a hooker. They've now made THIGH HIGH SUEDE BOOTS 'fashionable' -.- And their short-shorts seriously gross me out.

At least Bom has the grace to look ashamed when she gets put in tiny dresses. 2ne1 will always be classier than SNSD.

[tabi.livejournal.com]

CL, you go girlfraaan.

Also, stop with the Lady Gaga comparisons goddamnit, that woman is not all-that. Fashion models on catwalks started wearing crazy shit on their bodies first.

[purplesky.livejournal.com]

Is that cameltoe? DNW cameltoe :\

That aside, this outfit is pretty tame.

[eveandadam.livejournal.com]

but, almost everything is controversial in kpop. :|

[atarashiiyoake.livejournal.com]

A+

[fatalblissy.livejournal.com]

KOREAN LADY GAGA?

HA.

[itangeisha.livejournal.com]

She's right! SHe didn't exposed that much.
But it's korea and not a cute girl from another girlsband.
She could go to the swimming pool like this people would think she's vulgar.. ">8O"

[stopthedisco.livejournal.com]

If anything, it's the girls from cute bands that get more wank.
lol girl, no one would care make a clatter if CL, or any girl for that matter, wore a bathing suit.

Some would even say she’s the Korean version of Lady Gaga, that is, in terms of style.

I love CL, but I don't think anyone would call her the Korean Lady Gaga.

[outlawed.livejournal.com]

No offense, put the people spotting cameltoe must REALLY be looking. You pervs! :P That or something is off with the color res on my computer.

[djlancerock.livejournal.com]

I didn't look until someone pointed it out :/

[leap4detonation.livejournal.com]

LOL what's with all the people going "LOL I'M SORRY CL YOU AIN'T NO GAGA!!~" It's not like she compared herself to Gaga; it was the reporter. Learn to read.

Anyway, the outfit seems tame compared to short shorts and thigh-high boots. Just saying. O:P

[djlancerock.livejournal.com]

I don't think people are implying that she called herself that, they're just having a wtf reaction at the fact that the reporter even came up with that.

[heartflood.livejournal.com]

lol

[gdlovesbee.livejournal.com]

LOL @ the pic. Aw, CL. I'm glad she's actually nothing like Lady Gaga.

[freezing-flames.livejournal.com]

mte

I mean, I wouldn't want to be compared to Lady Gaga tbh
she's so... trashy

[law-oneofmany.livejournal.com]

it's not even like it's a "revealing" outfit... it's just unfortunate...

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

She looks like a cyclops.
