In the age of skintight jeans and stretch jeggings, it’s become socially acceptable for men to wear more form-fitting clothing. But these famous men have gotten in touch with their feminine side by wearing clothes made for women.

Evan Ross
Evan Ross recently tied the knot to his girlfriend of six months Ashley Simpson in a lavish ceremony. And now the newlyweds will be working on a fashion line together. The “Mocking Jay Part 1” star revealed in an interview with E! he and Simpson regularly wear each other’s clothes and that is their inspiration for their clothing line. “She wears a lot of my pants and certain things and we switch up outfits a lot so we had an idea kind of about a He + She = We and kind of an androgynous line would be really cool,” Ross said.

Lil Wayne
Lil Wayne is a popular and influential rapper so when he showed up at the 2011 MTV VMA’s in a pair of tight, leopard print jeggings, a lot of people thought the New Orleans native flipped his lid. Soon after his “How To Love” performance, social media blew up with comments about his odd choice of clothing. Turns out the colorful jeggings were made by Tripp NYC, a popular brand of spandex jeans made famous by M.I.A. and Iggy Pop. Weezy also wore a pair of UGG boots while sitting courtside at an NBA game.

Dennis Rodman
On the basketball court, Dennis Rodman was one of the best rebounders in the league. And off of the court, the former Chicago Bulls superstar was grabbing everyone’s attention with his eclectic attire. In addition to wearing nail polish and dying his hair in a multitude of colors, Rodman started showing up to events in women’s clothes. He even infamously showed up to a book signing with a wedding dress on.

Kanye West
Besides music, Kanye West has a passion for fashion and it has shown throughout the years. The “No Church In The Wild” rapper has been a mainstay at fashion shows around the world. In 2010, Yeezy showed up to a Phillip Lim fashion show decked out in a black suit paired with a blush shirt made by the designer. “[It’s about] getting things that complement. I asked Phillip for this color,” West explained, referring to the shirt. “This is a women’s shirt he had, and I just felt this color would be really, really nice on my skin so I was really happy about it.” West has also donned a leather kilt during his “Watch the Throne” tour.

Snoop Dogg
Kanye West was recently ridiculed for rocking a leather skirt but he’s not the only one who donned a kilt. Long before Yeezy was being made fun of for his choice of attire, Snoop Dogg put his own long, lanky legs in a kilt. The “Gin and Juice” rapper appeared at the MTV Europe Music Video Awards back in 2007 in a blue plaid kilt, black tights and a pair of blue Chuck Taylors. That was the first and last time he showed off his legs in a skirt.

Kid Cudi
Kid Cudi also got in on the kilt-wearing action. Back in 2010 the “Day and Night” rapper turned heads when he popped up at a New Year’s Eve party in Miami wearing a green plaid kilt, black knee socks and a pair of Jordans. And earlier this year at Coachella, Kid Cudi’s outfit once again stole the show. The Ohio native took to the stage in a mid-drift baring crop top, which left him free enough to jump up and down during his performance.

Harry Styles
Harry Styles has millions of adoring female fans and it turns how he has something in common with them. They all go shopping for the same jeans. The One Direction singer is a fan of the brand Paige Denim and during a recent tour stop in LA, he went on a shopping spree in Beverly Hills. “He went straight for the women’s ranges. Harry’s favorites are the skinny women’s jeans in size 30 and then men’s jeans in size 28,” an eyewitness at the store said.
Lil B
Underground Lil B gained a legion of fans by churning out mixtape after mixtape. But a lot of people, including other rappers like 50 Cent, have clowned Lil B’s lyrical abilities. The California rapper hasn’t let that deter him and he continues to rap while showing off his weird sense of fashion. For his “Got The Mack Loaded” video, Lil B donned a pair of chandelier earrings. Harlem rapper A$AP Rocky, who has his own flair for fashion, made fun of Lil B for his odd choice of bling.

Lenny Kravitz
Famed musician Lenny Kravitz has certainly embraced the rock and roll lifestyle. But in addition to donning the usual ripped, tight jeans, Kravitz has also gotten in touch with his feminine side when it comes to his wardrobe. The “American Woman” singer has been spotted sporting a man purse on numerous occasions. On one particularly cold and blistery day in Manhattan, Kravitz was seen wearing a wool poncho. He’s also stomped around town in a pair of wedge platform boots.

Young Thug
Young Thug is one of the hottest rappers coming out of Atlanta. But instead of his music making headlines, Young Thug’s outfits have been stealing the spotlight. The tall, lanky rapper raised eyebrows after rocking a pair of skinny jeans and a long leopard print shirt that looked a lot like a dress. And during an interview with “Complex” magazine, the stoner rapper revealed that it was a dress and it came from was from the junior’s department.

Michael Jackson
When he was alive, Michael Jackson was one of the most recognizable stars on the planet. Part of the reason why the King of Pop stood out everywhere he went was because of his attire. Jackson was known for wearing sequined jackets and black, high-water pants with white or silver socks. Some of his clothes were designer brands but his baby sister Janet revealed that the black sparkly jacket he wore during his legendary “Motown 25” performance was from their mother’s closet.

Justin Bieber
With a couple arrests under his belt, Justin Bieber has earned a reputation as a bad boy but back when he first emerged on the music scene, he was a young, slim kid from Canada. His small frame was a perfect fit for women’s jeans and Bieber readily admitted to wearing denim made for the ladies. “I’ve worn women’s jeans before because they fit me,” he told “Life & Style” magazine. “It’s not a trend; it’s just whatever works, works.”

Terrence Howard
Terrence Howard may be opposed to wearing women’s clothes but he does not mind borrowing our accessories. The “Iron Man” star showed up to an awards show with a peculiar accessory. Howard walked the red carpet with a black patent leather clutch in his hand. And he wasn’t holding it for a special lady friend because he went to the awards show solo that night.

Pharrell Williams
Terrence Howard isn’t the only male celebrity that has a thing for women’s bags. Hermes birkin bags have been all the rage in Hollywood for a while now and not just with the female stars. Back in 2007, Pharrell Williams regularly walked around with the $67,000 purple crocodile tote. But if you called his bag the wrong name, he was quick to correct you. “Don’t call it a murse… it’s my travel bag,” the “Happy” singer said.

Prince
Despite his penchant for wearing women’s clothing and his androgynous appearance, Prince has no problems landing the ladies. The artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as Prince is known just as much for his music as he’s known for his gender bending attire. The “Beautiful Ones” singer has rocking ruffled or frilly blouses, flare leg pants and pointy-toed boots with heels for years. He also used to have long flowing hair but last year he ditched his signature tresses for a short, curly afro.
