Steve Harvey on Why He Changed His Look and Stopped Wearing Bright, Baggy Suits
Soon-to-be-60-year-old Steve Harvey stopped by The View on Monday for a terrifying trip down fashion memory lane. Turns out it was about a decade ago, the year Harvey turned 50, when he decided to make some changes in his life.
“At 50, I said I’m going to lose a little weight. I’m going to shave my hair, which I was tired of cutting. And then my suits went through a miraculous change,” Harvey said.
The suits, which were famously bright, long, and baggy, were a staple of his appearance as a blossoming standup comedian and radio personality. But it was a comment from his wife that sparked a change.
“That’s exactly what my wife said. ‘I love you, Steve, but I’m actually tired of being married to a pimp,’” Harvey recalled. “She said, ‘Your life is going to change drastically. God is going to take you somewhere. You got to look like you’re prepared to go where he’s taking you.’”
