When Jennifer Lopez attended the 2000 Grammy Awards, she set tongues wagging over her bold and outrageously low-cut green Versace gown. According to a recent blog posting by Google, the dress "broke the Internet" and led to the creation of Google Images.

"Seemingly overnight it became a fashion legend, as well as the most popular search query Google had seen at the time. But back in 2000, search results were still just a list of blue links,” the company said in a post on its The Keyword blog.
