Last year Reese Witherspoon was caught wearing the same dress as Kirsten Dunst had previously worn in 2003. This year Jessica Biel wore the same Valentino gown that Hilary Swank wore to a Oscar party in 2004. But Biel is full of grace and had only wonderful things to say about the mishap. She made her statement to USA Today and Us mag:
"It is unfortunate that I was told by Valentino no one had ever worn the gown before, but I think Hilary has amazing style, and I'm flattered we share the same taste."
Meanwhile Valentino's PR team used the old "Valentino dresses are timeless and each woman brings to them her own interpretation," excuse to try and dig themselves out of the situation. I am sure that went over well with Jessica and her reps.
You know directly after she found out she called and bitched out some poor secretary or assistant for the fashion faux pas. My guess is it went something like this:
"Hi, this is Jessica Biel and I am super pissed that you sent me a used gown to wear at the Golden Globes.""We are terribly sorry Ms. Biel. But we would like to say that Valentino dresses are timeless and each woman brings-"
"Excuse me, I would like to remind you of my rocking ass and perky chest."
"Point taken Ms. Biel please accept ten grand worth of swag and this baby elephant. Would you like my first born as well?"
"The baby elephant and swag will be sufficient."
I doubt Jessica would want a baby elephant but if I were her I would totally ask for one.

Oh, and you can dress Hillary up but she still looks like a crack whore trailer trash bad teeth pig.
