Jennifer Lopez basically stole the Oscars from Uggie and Christopher Plummer by wearing a revealing Zuhair Murad dress—and forcing people to understand that a nipple is not an areola. But her stylist denies there was any wardrobe malfunction!
Stylist Mariel Haenn told People, "The dress fit perfectly to every inch. While the dress did give the illusion of sheer-ness, joke's on everyone who wishes they saw something!" Or the joke is on JLo—same difference.
Haenn also hinted about Lopez's post-Oscars dress for the Vanity Fair party, "If you thought that was hot, wait until you see what's next." Which turned out to be another Zuhair Murad dress, this time in dark sequins with more plunging cleavage.
Of course, America doesn't just fall for NSFW parts—Angelina Jolie's right leg is all the rage, too.
