If you know anything about Joy Villa, it probably is that she’s the girl who has dubbed some of the absolute most unusual and outrageous dresses on the Grammy’s red carpet of the past four years.
Last year, the self-called Princess begged for attention by wearing a red, white and blue “Make America Great Again” gown with the name “Trump” bedazzled on the back of the dress. For real.
