The Most Embarrassing Red Carpet Moments
1 Nicole Kidman Had A Dress Slit Problem
A dress with a slit is nice, but nowadays, slits are getting higher and higher, and that can cause some problems.
Nicole Kidman unfortunately fell victim to this very high slit in her dress when she almost exposed a little more than she expected.
2 Michael Cera Lost His Balance While Goofing Around
While walking the red carpet at the 2013 Sundance Festival, Michael Cera had a lot of fun with his Magic Magic co-star, Catalina Sandino.
However, a bad step made him lose his balance and he found himself on the ground.
3 Cara Delevingne Fell On Her Back While Partying
Cara Delevingne found herself on her back at the 2014 GQ Man of the Year Awards in London.
Luckily, Scottish fashion designer Jonathan Saunders was there to help her get up!
4 Adrien Brody Fell Down The Stairs
At the 2003 Met Gala, Adrien Brody was walking the red carpet with Nicole Kidman when he stumbled down the stairs.
Fortunately, he was more scared than hurt!
5 Courtney Love Collapsed After Abusing The Good Stuff
Courtney Love had abused the good stuff before the 1995 MTV Video Music Awards.
She ended up on her back on the red carpet.
6 Amber Heard Had A Neckline Malfunction
There is always a risk of showing a little too much when wearing a plunging neckline. Especially when we do not control our environment.
Amber Heard had some problems with the neckline of her dress while she was outside and the wind blew.
7 Bradley Cooper Gets Attacked
At the 2014 Screen Actors Guild Awards, Bradley Cooper was joined on the red carpet by a Ukrainian journalist who grabbed at his legs, hoping to throw the actor off balance.
Unfortunately, Bradley is too cool under pressure and he barely reacted to the journalist’s prank.
8 Helen Mirren Trips Up The Stairs
At a film festival in Berlin, Germany, Helen Mirren took a tumble when her long dress got caught in her heels.
Despite being 69 years old at the time, Mirren recovered gracefully.
9 Stella McCartney Gets Caught On Rihanna’s Dress
At the Met Gala, designer Stella McCartney had a rather awkward run-in with singer Rihanna. When McCartney lifted her foot, her heel was caught in Rihanna’s dress.
It became so entangled that McCartney had to lean on both Rihanna and Kate Bosworth to extricate herself from the sticky situation.
10 Jennifer Lawrence Gets Her Heel Caught In Her Gown
During an appearance at the Screen Actors Guild Awards in 2011, Jennifer Lawrence nearly took a tumble when she got her heels caught in her dress.
Thankfully, she was saved from the fall by a helpful passerby, who also helped her to untangle her feet.
11 Bella Hadid Showing Lots Of Skin
Model Bella Hadid has nothing to hide, and she showed it by wearing this gorgeous red dress on a red carpet.
The plunging neckline and high slit of this dress already reveal a lot, but the model revealed even more when her dress refused to stay in place.
12 Tre Cool Falls Out Of A Van
When he arrived at the red carpet for the Europe Music Awards, Green Day drummer Tre Cool, otherwise known as Frank Edwin Wright, embarrassed himself before he even took a step.
The musician tumbled out of his van at the start of the red carpet, which was certainly an exciting beginning to the evening.
13 Hayden Panettiere Falls Down the Stairs
Hayden Panettiere wore a gorgeous Tom Ford ballgown to the Met Gala. Unfortunately, the dress had a bit too much fabric, which caused Panettiere to trip as she made her way down the stairs.
Thankfully, she laughed off her embarrassment and didn’t let the moment ruin her evening.
14 Amy Schumer Pulls A Prank
Actress and comedian Amy Schumer tried to pull a prank on Kim Kardashian and Kanye West at the Time 100 Gala in 2015 by throwing herself in front of them in the middle of their red carpet pictures.
Unfortunately, the moment ended up being rather embarrassing for Amy, especially since Kim and Kanye moved right along without acknowledging her.
15 Ashley Graham Rolls Her Ankle
At the 2017 Time 100 Gala, model Ashley Graham walked the red carpet. Although she’s used to strut down a runway, this time things didn’t go as planned.
Ashley tripped over her long dress and rolled her ankle. Thankfully, she was able to right herself before she fully fell to the ground.
16 Tara Reid’s Dress Strap Fell Off
It’s one thing to have a malfunction with your dress, but it’s another to have one without realizing it.
As Tara Reid walked the red carpet, the strap of her dress slipped off her shoulder, revealing her entire left breast. Unfortunately, the actress didn’t realize it right away.
17 Behati Prinsloo’s Dress Falls Down
When Victoria’s Secret model Behati Prinsloo’s dress fell down during a red carpet appearance, her husband Adam Levine was there to step in and make sure prying eyes didn’t see more of his wife than she intended.
What a caring husband!
18 Trey Parker & Matt Stone Wear Dresses On The Red Carpet
At the 2000 Oscars, South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone arrived at the event wearing dresses.
While the move was perfectly in line with their personalities, it did make for quite a few funny photos.
19 Emma Thompson’s Fall At The TLC Chinese Theater
While receiving her handprint in cement at the TLC Chinese Theater in 2013, Emma Thompson lost her balance while kneeling near the cement block and toppled to the ground.
It could have become a very embarrassing moment, but the actress was able to turn the whole thing into a joke.
20 Ariana Grande’s Dress Flys Up
At the Teen Choice Awards in 2012, Ariana Grande did an accidental Marilyn Monroe impression when the wind blew up her flimsy skirt.
Unfortunately, her final pose looked a little less elegant than Marilyn’s sexy stance.
21 Sarah Harding And Her Too Open Dress
It’s not clear what happened here. We find it hard to believe that Sarah Harding’s dress was made like this.
But how did it open so much? In any case, she must have been very happy to wear panties under her dress!
22 Elsa Hosk Lost Her Earring On The Red Carpet
Victoria’s Secret model Elsa Hosk lost her earring while walking the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival in 2019.
She was then forced to bend down and pick it up mid-strut.
23 Kristen Stewart Takes Off Her Heels
During a red carpet walk, Kristen Stewart decided she had enough of stumbling down the aisle in her heels.
Instead, she took off her shoes and walked the rest of the carpet barefoot. She certainly marches to the beat of her own drum!
24 David Oyelowo Shows Off His Shoes
Even though David Oyelowo’s poses on the red carpet at the 2015 Oscars were anything but conventional, he certainly wasn’t embarrassed by them.
Instead, David embraced his odd posture, as he was desperate to show off the maroon shoes that matched the rest of his red ensemble, leading to a few odd stances with his leg raised for the camera.
25 Jason Derulo Takes A Tumble
At the 2015 Met Gala, a rumor started that this man falling down the stairs was Jason Derulo.
In reality, the man was just an unknown guest at the party who happened to take a rather embarrassing tumble down the red carpet.
26 Jessica Chastain’s Dress Flying In The Wind
This Elie Saab Couture gown that Jessica Chastain wore on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet on May 19, 2014, was absolutely sublime.
Unfortunately, flowing dresses like this one tend to catch in the wind, and that’s exactly what happened. Luckily, the actress was able to hold it back well, and the veil effect is beautiful!
27 Liang Jingke Couldn’t Get Back Up
Chinese actress Liang Jingke faced a double-whammy of embarrassment at the 2016 Venice Film Festival.
After tripping and falling on the red carpet, Jingke was further embarrassed when her body-hugging gown prevented her from getting back up, forcing fellow red carpet walkers to step in and help.
28 Alysia Reiner Stumbles Forward
Orange Is the New Black star Alysia Reiner chose a stunning red gown for her red carpet walk at the 2015 Screen Actors Guild Awards.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t very functional. The dress was so tight that Alysia had to have someone walk with her who lifted the bottom of her gown to help her move forward.
29 Jessica Alba Falls Down
Even though she was dressed more casually for her appearance at the 2006 Teen Choice Awards, Jessica Alba still managed to fall down.
The actress tumbled to the ground in front of the cameras, but somehow continued to look gorgeous, even during her fall.
30 Jools Holland Falls Flat On His Back
While walking the red carpet at the 2014 GQ Men of the Year Awards, Jools Holland tripped over a raised part of the walkway.
He fell to the ground and landed flat on his back. But rather than jumping right back to his feet, Holland milked the moment and stayed on the ground for a few extra seconds, laughing off his own clumsiness.
31 Stephanie Davis Who Leaned A Little Too Far
While the English actress Stephanie Davis was participating in the final of Celebrity Big Brother, she revealed the piercing that was supposed to remain hidden under her bra.
It can be dangerous to move as much as you want when you wear a transparent dress revealing your bra, and the young actress of 22 years learned it at her expense.
32 Sacha Baron Cohen Spills Ashes On Ryan Seacrest
Well-known Hollywood funny man Sacha Baron Cohen decided to pull quite the prank at the 2012 Oscars. Dressed as his character from The Dictator, Cohen carried a vase that he claimed contained the ashes of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il.
He then proceeded to “accidentally” dump the ashes all over host Ryan Seacrest, forcing Seacrest to continue with the rest of the show covered in white powder.
33 Hugh Grant Gets Handcuffed To A Fan
All the way back in 2007, Hugh Grant ran into a small issue while walking the red carpet for the premiere of his movie, Music and Lyrics. A devout fan leaped into his path during his walk and locked a handcuff onto his wrist, securing the other end to her own arm.
For 10 minutes, Grant stood next to the fan, continuing to chat with reporters, until the police and firefighters arrived and removed the handcuffs. While Grant continued his red carpet walk, the fan was arrested.
34 Emma Thompson Tackles Hayley Atwell
While walking the red carpet for the premiere of The Children Act in London, Emma Thompson spotted fellow actress Hayley Atwell on the red carpet. Rather than calmly greeting her fellow Brit, Thompson enveloped Atwell in quite an aggressive bear hug.
While Thompson looks a little frightening, the joy and surprise on Atwell’s face certainly indicates a close friendship between these two women.
35 Tom Bergeron Drops Heidi Klum
Heidi Klum hosted the 2008 Emmys alongside Tom Bergeron. At one point during the night, Klum and Bergeron were supposed to perform a skit where Klum pretended to faint and was caught by Bergeron.
When the moment came, however, Bergeron failed to catch his co-star. Instead, she went tumbling to the ground and ended up with a nasty bruise on her hip.
36 Chrissy Teigen Double High Slit Dress
Chrissy Teigen is perfectly comfortable with her body, and it shows. After all, it takes a lot of confidence to wear a dress with a slit this high on each side!
However, many thought this dress was way too risqué, especially after the front ruffle moved a little too far to the side and the star’s private parts were slightly exposed.
37 America Ferrera Faces An Attacker
While posing on the red carpet for How To Train Your Dragon 2, America Ferrera was attacked by a rude Ukrainian journalist. The journalist sneaked up behind Ferrera, who was taking a picture with her fellow celebrities, and tried to sneak a peek up her dress.
As you can tell by the photo, Ferrera was less than thrilled by his behavior. Thankfully, many onlookers jumped in and pulled the man away from the star.
38 Virginie Efira’s Shoe Comes Undone
While walking the red carpet at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival, French and Belgian actress Virginie Efira’s shoe came unbuckled. Rather than continuing to walk and ensuring a fall, Efira planted herself on the steps of the red carpet and allowed her co-star, Niels Schneider, to buckle the shoe back up.
Unfortunately, her gown was so tight that she couldn’t quite reach the buckle herself, resulting in this perfect Cinderella moment.
39 Petra Nemcova Slips Up
While walking the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival, Czech model Petra Nemcova had a small slip up. She tripped over the fabric of her long gown and nearly face-planted on the red carpet. Thankfully, she was able to right herself before she fully hit the ground.
She laughed off the mistake and continued her walk with confidence, making sure to pay a bit more attention to where she was stepping.
40 Lady Gaga Wears A Meat Dress
Lady Gaga obviously wasn’t very embarrassed (at the time) by the outfit she wore to the 2010 MTV Music Video Awards. After all, she put it together! But for every onlooker, a dress made entirely of meat wasn’t exactly appealing or fashion-forward.
Instead, it was a little bit gross. We can’t help but think that Lady Gaga looks back at this fashion decision and cringes.
41 Janet Jackson Uncovered Boob
Ok, it’s not an event that happened on a red carpet, and it’s not really a wardrobe malfunction, but this event has been so talked about that it had to be on this list.
Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake were responsible for the Super Bowl halftime show in 2004. At the end of their performance, Timberlake ripped off part of the top Jackson was wearing, revealing her right boob. Shocking!
42 Jason Segel Interrupts The Cleaning Staff
Oftentimes, when stars are walking the red carpet, the audience doesn’t get to see all the behind-the-scenes crew members that make an event possible. But while actor Jason Segal was walking the red carpet at the Oscars, he was abruptly interrupted by a cleaner vacuuming right in his space.
Of course, Segal had a typically hilarious reaction. But the moment certainly made for a bit of awkwardness for everyone involved.
43 Katherine Heigl’s Dress Breaks
In 2010, Katherine Heigl won an award for female star of the year at a convention in Las Vegas. While giving her acceptance speech, she experienced quite an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction. The entire strap of Heigl’s dress snapped, nearly giving the audience much more of a show than they were expecting.
Thankfully, the star managed to grab the dress before it fell down completely, and laughed along with the audience for the rest of her speech.
44 Elizabeth Olsen At The Miu Miu Fragrance Launch
The wind is unfortunately often the worst enemy of a woman wearing a dress or skirt when she is outside. Actress Elizabeth Olsen was a victim of this on July 4, 2015, as seen in this photo.
While posing for the cameras in a cute short dress at the Miu Miu fragrance launch in Paris, the wind blew and her dress flew in the wind. She obviously realized fast what was happening, and did her best to keep her dress in place, but you can see from her face that she is both embarrassed and amused by the incident.
45 Jennifer Lawrence Dangerous Leaning
Obviously, there are several tactics to keep a woman’s breasts in place, as well as the top of the dress, when wearing a plunging neckline. However, it is never totally safe and without risk.
While actress Jennifer Lawrence, interpreter of Katniss Everdeen, was attending the premiere of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay in Berlin, she almost lost her balance because of her very long dress. However, as she bent down to replace the bottom of her dress, her chest was almost revealed through the cleavage. Fortunately, she managed to avoid the worst.
46 Paris Hilton High Slit Birthday Dress
Paris Hilton is one of those celebrities for whom the birthday is every year a huge media event that brings together a large number of celebrities to celebrate. It is therefore normal that Hilton wears a dress worthy of the circumstances.
When she celebrated her 33rd birthday in 2014, she opted for a pink dress with a waist-high slit. She also decided not to wear underwear under her dress. Needless to say, then, that the starlet revealed a lot of skin on this night. We still find it hard to believe that this is a real wardrobe malfunction, though. Clearly, she knew what she was doing.
47 Jessica Alba’s Falling Dress Strap
Jessica Alba has well understood the magnitude of what almost happened to her on this red carpet, and we only have to look at the expression on her face in this photo to see it well. The strap of her dress slipped over her shoulder, revealing the black lace bra she was wearing underneath her dress.
She quickly realized what was happening and pulled up the top of her dress, then her dress strap, but still, the actress revealed more than she wanted to.
48 The Misplaced Transparent Line Of Nicky Hilton’s Dress
Nicky Hilton, Paris Hilton’s sister, is also a very famous socialite who gained popularity in the early 2000s. While attending Paris Fashion Week in July 2015, she was seen in a lovely dress by Versace. However, we also got to see her buttocks, despite her.
The dress in question has several circles of different sizes resembling curtain rings, but it also has two sheer panels. The lower of the two is right at the top of the thighs, but Hilton did not think that by going up the stairs, the sheer panel would go up a little too, revealing the bottom of her butt.
49 Hayden Panettiere’s More See-Trough Than Expected Dress
It is important for a star to make sure that their outfit is perfect and that there is no risk of malfunction during an event. And at first glance, except for the plunging neckline of her dress, everything seemed to be in order for Hayden Panettiere during this red carpet.
However, the actress and her team obviously failed to do a lighting and flash test before going to this event. Once the camera flashes were in action, Panettiere’s dress was much more see-trough than she thought. Lucky for her that the important part of her breasts was hidden by a potential nipple protector that also served to keep her dress in place!
50 The Time Jennifer Garner Was Happy To Wear Undergarments
This is a very silly accident that happened to the actress Jennifer Garner on the red carpet. While she was laughing with Steve Carell, who had certainly said something comical, Garner tried to take her handbag with her other hand, but she snagged her dress in the process, revealing her undergarments.
Poor Jennifer, she created that embarrassing moment all by herself! But the actress is gorgeous, and thanks to her undergarments, nothing was really revealed. So she is doing very well despite the little gaffe. So she has no real reason to be embarrassed despite this little accident.
51 Jessica Chastain And Oscar Isaac Being Too Close
Jessica Chastain and Oscar Isaac walked the red carpet together at the 2021 Venice International Film Festival. So far, nothing unusual, although Isaac seems to be sniffing Chastain’s armpit in this photo. But the tension between the actors was palpable on the red carpet, through their loving looks and face caresses.
Again, it could be totally banal, a simple flirtation between celebs as it is often seen in the showbiz. Except that Chastain and Isaac are both married, and were married at the time. Awkward!
52 Kanye West Getting Drunk
What’s up, Kanye? Need a glass, maybe? The rapper was seen drinking straight from a bottle of Hennessy cognac on the red carpet of the 2009 Video Music Awards. After that, clearly, he must not have been quite sober during the gala.
That can most certainly explain why he thought it was a good idea to get on stage when Taylor Swift won Best Female Video for her song “You Belong with Me,” steal the mic and say “Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’mma let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time!”
53 Angelina Jolie Kissing Her Brother
But what happened between Angelina Jolie and her brother James Haven on the night of the 2000 Oscars? Not only did the actress say, during her acceptance speech after winning the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for the film Girl Interrupted, “I’m in shock, and I’m so in love with my brother right now”, but the brother and sister were seen kissing on the mouth.
And this is not the only time this has happened. They also kissed at the Golden Globes the same year. The siblings assure that there is only brotherly love between them and that it was nothing at all, but everyone knows that siblings don’t act like that towards each other, right? So yes, Angelina, that kiss is kind of a big deal, and people’s reaction is not “pathetic”, as you claim.
54 Katy Perry Jumps And Slips On A Cake
During her performance at the 2008 MTV Latin America Music Awards, Katy Perry wanted to do a funny stunt. Indeed, there was a giant cake on stage with her, and at the end of her song, she decided to literally jump into the cake. That’s strange, but still very funny.
However, once she wanted to leave the stage after her performance, she started slipping on the leftover cake that had fallen to the ground, and eventually ended up on her back on the floor after completely losing her balance. Now that’s something to ruin an exit!
55 Sofia Vergara Ripped Dress
Sofia Vergara is a beautiful woman; everyone knows it, and she knows it too! She never tries to hide her assets, while remaining chic and well dressed. Except when her dress decides to split at the wrong place, at the wrong time.
For the 2012 Emmy Awards, the actress wore a beautiful dress by Zuhair Murad that made her look like a mermaid. The dress was open all the way down her back, but unfortunately, it split and opened way too low, revealing her backside to everyone. Luckily, a team was there, ready to fix the dress!
56 A Pregnant Kim Kardashian Showing A Bit Of Thighs
This is Kim Kardashian as we haven’t seen her for a long time! Indeed, while we now know her as the icon with the tiny waist and the largest and most bulging posterior, we easily forget that the star has not always been like this.
There was a time when Kardashian looked more like an almost normal woman with less extravagant clothes. Like that time when, pregnant with her daughter North, she walked around in a short dress that flew in the wind, revealing her upper thighs, and even a little more!
57 Cardi B’s Worst Night
Cardi B is an artist who is not unanimous, but whether you like her or not, no one can deny that she gives body and soul during her performances to give the best show possible to her fans. However, sometimes that can work against her.
During a show, while wearing a colorful and tight jumpsuit, it split on her backside while she twerked with too much vigor. She had to leave the stage and put on a bathrobe, which didn’t really hold up, revealing the singer’s bra. However, she eventually accepted her fate and revealed more to her fans herself. Tough night for Cardi B!
58 Camila Alves’ Dress Caught In The Wind
A red carpet is always a nice moment for a star who is going to present a movie in which they played, and obviously, their partner is always as proud as they are. This is the case of Camila Alves, who accompanied her husband Matthew McConaughey for the Hollywood premiere of the movie Fool’s Gold, on January 30, 2008.
The couple was very happy to be there, and even when Alves’ dress caught in the wind and revealed more skin than expected, the lovers continued to smile beautifully, with McConaughey holding his wife tightly by the waist.
59 Keyshia Cole’s Dungarees Tearing During a Show
Keyshia Cole always gives her best when giving a show, and her fans love her for it. She gives so much of herself, and dances so intensely, that she even managed to rip her dungarees in the crotch area during a show!
How did she manage to rip this not-so-fitting dungarees? That’s a good question! Our theory is that the crotch of the pants was too low, and the singer spread her legs a little too wide, and that was that! Luckily, she was wearing a pair of underwear , so the damage was limited.
60 Toni Braxton Exposing Her Underwear
Toni Braxton gave an electrifying performance with the band Il Divo at the Adidas World of Football in Berlin, Germany, on June 8, 2006. She gave more than a great musical performance, however, when the wind blew up her short blue dress, exposing her white underwear.
It’s not clear if the singer didn’t realize what was going on or just didn’t care, but from the picture, she doesn’t seem to be too bothered by what’s happening, continuing her performance as if nothing had happened.
61 John Travolta Kissing Scarlett Johansson On The Cheek
It was in 2015 on the red carpet of the Academy Awards ceremony. Scarlett Johansson was posing for the cameras, and all of a sudden, John Travolta approached her, took her by the waist, then kissed her on the cheek. If you look at the picture, the actress seems to try to ignore the actor, but still seems a bit annoyed.
However, following the controversy that this photo caused, Johansson later defended Travolta, saying “There is nothing strange, creepy or inappropriate about John Travolta.” She added, “That still photo does not reflect what preceded and followed if you see the moment live. Yet another way we are misguided, misinformed and sensationalized by the 24-hour news cycle.” So, apparently, this would be a kissing moment only for those who see the photo!
62 Machine Gun Kelly And Megan Fox Too Much In Love
Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox are not a couple that fans are unanimous about, but if one thing is certain, it is that the stars love each other, and they love each other very much. However, their love is sometimes a little exaggerated and out of the ordinary, making people who attend their demonstration of love a little uncomfortable.
As they paraded down the red carpet at the 2021 Billboard Music Awards, everyone got to see Machine Gun Kelly, tongue painted black, licking Megan Fox’s tongue as she grabbed his crotch. We have nothing against demonstrations of love, but this is too much.
63 Melissa Joan Hart Failed Makeup
If there is one place where a celebrity must be at its best, it is on a red carpet. After all, all the reporters are there and the photographers take a ton of pictures, immortalizing clothes, hair and makeup. Unfortunately for Melissa Joan Hart, her makeup artist is not foolproof.
While she attended the premiere of the children’s movie Frozen, the actress showed up on the red carpet with unfinished makeup. Indeed, her face powder was not well blended in, so her foundation appeared when a photo was taken with a flash, giving her face various shades.
64 Marion Cotillard Curtsy Lunging
French actress Marion Cotillard is not the first celebrity to lose a piece of her outfit while parading on a red carpet, but she is certainly one of the celebrities to pick up what she has lost in such a strange way.
While parading on the red carpet of the 2018 Cannes Film Festival, the actress lost an earring. To pick it up in a way that was certainly meant to be graceful, she performed a sort of precarious curtsy lunge and grabbed onto the arm of a woman who was walking alongside her. Lunging with such a tight jumpsuit and high heels can’t be easy, so we raise our hat to her, even if it was awkward!
65 Jon Hamm Not Using The Stairs
At the 2015 Emmy Awards, actor Jon Hamm won the Emmy for Best Actor in a Drama Series for his role as Don Draper in the TV series Mad Men. In order to celebrate his win by trying to be cooler than the others, he decided to go on the stage without using the stairs.
However, maybe his suit was too tight for that, or the stage too high, or both, but his attempt was far from graceful, quite the opposite. It was rather awkward and questionable. Next time, Jon, take the stairs!
66 Rami Malek Falling Off Stage
At the 2019 Academy Awards, Rami Malek won the Oscar for Best Actor for his role as Freddy Mercury in the film Bohemian Rhapsody. Very happy, he went on stage and made a speech full of emotions. However, his return to his seat did not go as planned.
Too happy and excited to have won an Oscar, he completely missed the stairs and simply stumbled down. Everyone in the vicinity stood up to help him get up and get back to his seat. An embarrassing moment for the actor, but as you can see on the picture, he was so on cloud nine that it did not disconcert him in the least!
67 Christoph Waltz’s Odd Limping
Christoph Waltz is an excellent actor adored by many, but who can sometimes be a bit extravagant. Indeed, he does not miss an opportunity to make a mark, and his ways are all more creative than the others.
On the red carpet of the 2018 Cannes Film Festival, the actor completed his entire walk in a rather strange way, giving the impression that he was limping oddly. However, it wasn’t clear if it was just a joke to get people talking or if he was actually suffering from something. To this day, it is still not clear. Our impression is that it was just another trick of the actor to entertain the public.
68 Emma Watson In Rain And Wind
Emma Watson, the one that everyone knew thanks to her role of Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter saga, is now a woman, always well dressed and well put. However, like any celebrity, she is not immune to some embarrassing moment.
At the London premiere of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince on July 7, 2009, Emma wore a beautiful, light, flowing dress. Unfortunately, it was raining and windy that day, and as she was signing autographs for her fans, her dress caught in the wind, revealing her beige underwear.
69 Jessica Simpson Caught Her Skirt Just In Time
In September 2008, singer Jessica Simpson was invited to perform on the morning show Good Morning America in New York City. The performance was held outside, and what was supposed to be a simple and hassle-free performance almost turned out to be very embarrassing for the singer.
Unfortunately, outdoors, we are always at the mercy of the weather. That morning was pretty windy, and Simpson was wearing a flowing dress. Her skirt caught in the wind, but despite the surprise on the singer’s face, she managed to hold it up just in time.
70 Leslie Mann Was Loving Cameron Diaz A Bit Too Much
We don’t know what happened with Leslie Mann at the 2014 premiere of The Other Woman, but the actress seemed pretty laid back and very festive. She also seemed to like her co-star in the film, Cameron Diaz, a little too much.
In fact, during the red carpet walk, Mann started dancing somewhat suggestively very close to Diaz, and then later was seen grabbing her co-star’s backside. We don’t know the relationship between the two celebrities, but clearly, they seem very close!
71 Lindsay Lohan And Her Super Short Dress
The fashion is for a long time to dresses, skirts and shorts shorter and shorter. After all, why not? It can be very pretty, but you have to be ready to accept that there are some risks of showing more skin than originally intended.
While posing on the red carpet of the MTV Movie Awards in Universal City, California, on June 1, 2008, Lindsay Lohan saw her super short purple dress fly in the wind, revealing the little that was hidden. You have to be very alert when wearing such a short dress, because not only is a gust of wind dangerous, but bending over and sitting down is also to be avoided!
72 Jennifer Lawrence Tripping In The Stairs
Actress Jennifer Lawrence is not without her share of funny, comical or embarrassing moments. However, thanks to her charisma and her humor, she always comes out on top. This accident here has been so well publicized that it is well known, but we consider that it still deserves its place in this list of fails.
It was during the 2013 Academy Awards ceremony. Lawrence won the Oscar for Best Actress for her role in Silver Linning’s Playbook. She was wearing a beautiful ball gown, and when she tried to climb the stairs to get her trophy, she tripped and fell. She still managed to laugh about it, though!
73 Camila Cabello Showing Her Backside
At the 2019 Grammys, Camila Cabello was the first ever Latina to perform the opening number of the music gala, along with Ricky Martin, among others. While this number was flamboyant and very successful, it did not go without hassle.
As Cabello sang and danced with drive, the back of her skirt got caught at waist height, revealing her backside to everyone. Luckily her skirt had a panty included, but still. She certainly would have preferred that it did not happen.
74 Emma Thompson Huging Hayley Atwell Intensely
Emma Thompson is a wonderful actress who is very engaging and funny, but also somewhat exuberant. She proved it once again on the red carpet of the 2017 premiere of The Children Act, as she wanted to show everyone her love for fellow actress Hayley Atwell.
Indeed, Thompson threw herself at Atwell and gave her the most intense hug, circling her waist in a bear hug of sorts, as if her life depended on it. Fortunately, Atwell seems to have found the situation very comical, but we must admit that the gesture remains strange.
75 Nicki Minaj’s Dress Tearing Right Down The Middle
Some wardrobe malfunctions are more embarrassing than others, and we think it’s safe to say that the one Nicki Minaj experienced during her performance at the 2014 Video Music Awards is one of those.
In the middle of her performance of the song “Bang Bang,” alongside Jessie J. and Ariana Grande, Minaj’s dress completely ripped down the middle, in the front, exposing her upper body. The singer had to finish her performance by being careful to hold her dress in place!
76 Emma Stone Awkward Hug To Damien Chazelle
Who doesn’t love Emma Stone? This actress is so talented, energetic and likable! We’d all love to be her friend and get a hug like the one she wanted to give Damien Chazelle, the director of the movie La La Land, at the 2016 Golden Globes red carpet.
Under different circumstances, Chazelle would have most likely enjoyed his actress’ hug as well, except that in that specific moment, his goal wasn’t to receive a hug from Stone, but to kiss his girlfriend. Awkward!
