"Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" is a jazz song written for the stage musical Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1949), with music by Jule Styne and lyrics by Leo Robin. Carol Channing introduced the song in the original Broadway production, and Marilyn Monroe followed in the film version, performing it in a strapless, “now-iconic satin pink gown” in a rendition ranked by the American Film Institute the 12th best film song of the 20th century.
The song has since been covered by scores of singers of various genres, such as Lena Horne, Eartha Kitt, Kylie Minogue, and Emmylou Harris, some in imitation of Monroe, whose rendition has inspired spectacles beyond the song itself.
