Overview

• Hurley, 60, responded to reports that Maya Jama’s 2024 MTV EMAs gown closely mirrored her famed safety‑pin Versace dress, calling the parallel “odd” yet “kind of fabulous.”
• Jama wore a near‑identical black dress with gold pins at the EMAs in Manchester in November 2024.
• Entertainment outlets note that Jama is reported to have first met Manchester City defender Ruben Dias at that event, with the relationship later becoming public.
• Jama’s version featured a slashed thigh and oversized pins and was specially sourced by her styling team, who also curate vintage looks she returns after use.
• Hurley has previously detailed in a Disney+ Vogue documentary how she borrowed the 1994 Versace dress on the day and was photographed extensively that night.
