When t-shirts talk: See the stars who love wearing their hearts on their tees, then cringe

Cooee! Harry Styles, Justin Bieber, Rihanna, Cheryl Cole, Britney Spears (we could go on, we will) Katie Price, Michelle Keegan (okay we’re tired now) wants a word with YOU.

Only this time the stars are bypassing their publicists altogether and releasing a (fashion) statement instead, one that involves one t-shirt, one celebrity torso and one SO-BLATANT-IT’S-HARD-NOT-TO-DO-AN-INTERNAL-CRINGE loaded slogan.

The likes of Paris Hilton, Eva Longoria and Britney started the trend waaaay back in the late ‘90s with such beauties as ‘Teenage Millionaire!’ (charming) and ‘I’ll have your babies Brad [Pitt]’. Nice one Eva, try explaining that one to Jen An.

But in true celebrity style, this is one OH HAI, WORLD! LOOK AT ME! I’M A FAMOUS! trend that just won’t quit, mainly because the stars just won’t let it.

So cue 2012 and new kids on the block (relatively speaking) Justin Bieber, Harry Styles, Rihanna and more are wheeling out some blatant statements of their own.

Forget airing your dirty laundry, nowadays it's all about wearing it. (Yup, that definitely sounded less gross in our heads. Moving on).

When t-shirts talk: Breakups, make-ups, love rats and more - here’s presenting the most cringe celebrity statement tees of all time...

We expected more from... oh no, hang on. You love a cheeky necklace/t-shirt/micro-mini pair of hotpants.
Luckily heatworld are more sensible, opting for a shot in which her phone masks the
expletive in question. Which incidentally, was, um, 'cat'.

Oh looks who's back and releasing another statement...

Or don't. Don't weep, we just wanted to make a funny about Alex Reid and, um, reading his tee.
Alex wore this bad boy after Katie's squeeze called him, well, the clues on the tee really.

After Katie Price wore a Team Katie tee post Pete-split, Pete came back with this gem. A t-shirt that says, 'I don't won't to get involved in your childish statement tee games'.

As sure as the sun won't shine in April (May or probably June) you can bet your bottom dollar that Katie Jordan Price will have the last word. Words worn via her chest and on a statement tee, natch.

So pretty and so on trend with her t-shirt, her studded leather biker jacket and her statement tee. Swoon.

Back in the year 2002 Britney wore a t-shirt that basically said she loves herself, having just split from K-Fed.
We can't show you that but we can show you this one of her (probably asking 50 Cent) to take her to the candy shop.
2002 was also a year in which denim Kangol hats and films like Crossroads were released. Ah, those were the days

The singer looked so pretty in this maxi plus statement tee - which may or may not have had something to do with the launch of her Dainty Doll cosmetics range.
Which is rather good, heatworld have tried it.
