Spandex Bicycle Shorts
Who's To Blame: Axl Rose, Milli Vanilli
Spandex was developed in 1959 by a DuPont scientist who wanted a way to display the genitalia of male bicyclists without violating public nudity laws. By the late '80s, spandex bicycle shorts could be seen across the music community, from headbangers to pop stars to the female dancers in pretty much any rap music video.
Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose may not have been the first to sport the look, but his white "I've spray painted my junk" shorts are certainly the ones most burned in our memory.
At least we can all agree there was at least one benefit of the less revealing attire of the grunge era that began in 1991 and helped spell the beginning of the end of the careers of some of the artists supporting this trend. Axl Rose and his junk have been in hiding ever since, and for that, we thank him
oh how fetching.
