Miyuki Hatoyama, the First Lady of Japan, was awarded for her ' classy but revolutionary style' in jeans by the Japan Jeans Association.

The honor was for "wearing jeans gracefully, with a bit of a revolutionary touch," according to AP reports.

"I have long wished to win the prize, as I'm a big fan of jeans," Hatoyama was also reported to say.

JustJaredJr reports that Zac Efron said he wore the same pair of G-Star raw denim jeans for 8-weeks straight.

“They’re my favorite jeans. I wore them all throughout High School Musical 3. I even wore them hiking. You have to wear them everywhere to get them right,” Efron said.

Octogenarian style legend Iris Apfel knows how to infuse a mega dose of whimsy and elegance to her jeans to make them personal.
