Katharine Hepburn: Pants

Katharine Hepburn almost always wore pants, even when doing so was decidedly unfashionable. "You're famous for wearing pants," Barbara Walters once remarked during an interview. "Do you even own a skirt?" "Yes, I own one," Hepburn replied. "I'll wear it at your funeral."

[This story was told by Julia Roberts at the 2004 Academy Awards.]
