Let's Remember When Jenny Jones and Ricki Lake Fueled Panic Over Goths and Punks
EntertainmentNot all ’90s fashion was good—we can do without the frosted lips, thanks—but many of the decade’s trends have enjoyed a healthy comeback in the last few years, from high-waist mom jeans to chokers, to the classic long-sleeved-shirt-underneath-a-short-sleeved-tee combo. Of course, what’s ’90s revival without the resurgence of alt, punk, and goth? These Marilyn Manson Fan Lite™ styles are common sightings when scrolling through Instagram and TikTok, with vintage ’90s pieces selling on Depop faster than Titanic on VhS. But at the time, those same styles landed some unlucky punks on daytime talk shows like The Jenny Jones Show and Ricki Lake, where their friends and family eagerly ripped their appearance apart in front of a live audience.
