A suit and tie is nice, but have you tried denim-on-denim?<\/p>\n

When it comes to award shows, Hollywood’s most beloved couples typically get ready together, match their outfits for photographers and even display PDA before the first award is handed out.<\/p>\n

But as we gear up for the 2019 American Music Awards <\/a>Sunday night, we couldn’t help but look back on the iconic look. Oops, we’re definitely doing it again!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

And although Miley Cyrus<\/strong> hasn’t tried to replicate the look (yet), she was so inspired by the couple that it plays a role in who she dates. “I want a boyfriend that will wear jean on jean on jean with me,” she once shared <\/a>with the Nationalist<\/em> in 2013.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Ultimately, Britney deserves credit for the matching look. “It was my idea,” she once told MTV News<\/a>. As for Justin, he doesn’t plan on wearing something similar again. “It was such a crazy time and the world was different, the music industry was different. It was just a different time,” the singer shared on The Project<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
