1. Bullet bra
When host Bailey Greetham Clark asked her to rate it out of 10, grandma looked shocked and replied, "Jeesus!" before giving it a firm 1.
2. Shoulder pads
"I can remember them but…" she said. When the host mentioned that shoulder pads are considered a fashion statement, she cut him off with, "I don't care what it is, it's hideous." Her rating? Another solid 1.
3. Parachute pants
"Oh God," grandma said, making a grimacing face. She didn't hesitate and rated them 0.
4. Leg warmers

4. Leg warmers

5. Velour tracksuit
The host mentioned, "These are statements and they're back in fashion now, can you believe it?" Grandma simply said, "I don't care, I don't think I'll be going into them." Her verdict? A lukewarm 2.
At the end of the round, when the host asked, "Out of all of them, what would you probably try?" Grandma replied with a laugh, "I would try the thingy around your thingies," referring to the bullet bra.
How internet reacted
Grandma's video quickly caught the attention of users online, racking up thousands of likes and comments. One user wrote, "The bullet bra is lucky to get away with a 1 out of 10!" Another pleaded, "Whaaat, no! Bring shoulder pads back, please." A third user agreed with grandma, saying, "She's on point though, they were all hideous," another commented, "Iris The Savage strikes again!"
