Mariah Carey Reveals the Story Behind Her Legendary “Heartbreaker” Jeans

(swanky music)

We are in my closet right now.

In my New York apartment.

Help me figure out a favorite I don't even,

it's so hard 'cause we have so many.

One of your favorite. Okay.

You ripped these.

One day I was with my stylist the late Tonjua Twist

and we were doing a shoot

and I hated the way the jeans were so high waisted

and I was like what is with the high waisted jeans, why?

She cut a little bit of them and then we both ripped it,

the top off the jeans.

And I went to the studio and my friend was like

yo where did you get those jeans from?

And then I noticed a lot of people started wearing

the jeans ripped up, like the top ripped off

of the jeans.

I'm not taking total credit.

Just kidding. You look so cute

Miss Monroe.

(laughing)

Ouch!

Man don't put that thing on my,

on my nice shoe.

Do you know the name of the designer Roci?

It's called Balmain.

That's dem' babies.

I would wear a shoe like this with Fendi jeans.

(laughing)

I feel like everybody's doing the jeans

with the rips in them which look great on some people.

But I don't know that they're the best look on me.

Sometimes they look, you think they look alright?

Really?

Alright.

We love you Vogue. Vogue.

Bye beauty guys.
