Celebrities are only mortals like the rest of us. They are not immune to embarrassing moments! In fact, you might even say that it is even worse for them. After all, the tabloid will be all over their mistakes. There is no way to erase the headlines once the stories have been published. Most of these stories are nothing more than awkward encounters brought about by bad timing. However, it is always nice to see that they are only humans. We hope that this list will make them seem more relatable!
Elsa Hosk Recovered On The Red Carpet
In the past, this Swedish model has worked for Victoria’s Secret and other brands. In 2019, she had been at a film festival in Venice when she suffered a wardrobe malfunction. One of her earrings fell out onto the red carpet, so she had to crouch down and pick it up. It can be hard to demonstrate grace when you are in this position, even if you are a model. She had been wearing high heels and a skirt with a long slit at the time. At the very least, she made it seem effortless as she bent down and put it back on.

Yulia Rybakova And Her Wardrobe Malfunction
This plus-sized Russian model has helped expand our ideal of beauty. Sadly, things went wrong for Yulia Rybakova when she attended the Cannes Film Festival in 2018. Another attendee stepped on the foot of her long red dress, which resulted in a disaster. As she walked away, part of the ensemble separated and left her leg exposed. She needed to go back and pick up the fabric from the same spot. It was a good thing that the man who caused the issue tried to patch it all up. We are glad that he was a good guy.

Jennifer Lawrence Is Not Pretending To Be In Pain
Best known for starring in Silver Linings Playbook and the Hunger Games trilogy, Jennifer Lawrence is known for being relatable. She is popular among fans and fellow celebrities alike! It feels like she always gets into various antics on the red carpet. When Catching Fire came out in London, she made this face in front of the camera. The reaction was provoked when one of her fellow cast members stepped on her toes. From the face he was making, it must have been Sam Claflin. It is hard enough to wear high heels, so we are sure that JLaw did not appreciate him stomping on her feet.

Jennifer Lawrence Has Struck Again
You were right if you guessed that there would be more Jennifer Lawrence on this list. She seems to tend to fall in front of other Hollywood stars. In 2011, she attended the Screen Actors Guild Awards. Sadly, her high heels ended up getting caught in her pink dress. A Good Samaritan had been in the right spot, so she did not fall. This person had been willing to bend down and help her untangle her shoe from the dress. It was a good thing that nothing could damper that bright smile of hers.
Jennifer Lawrence Has Struck Again
Her Leg Was Too Far Out
In 2012, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt attended the Academy Awards ceremony. As always, the actress looked nothing short of fabulous. She wore a gorgeous own and struck a pose that showed off her great leg. However, it looked rather unnatural and unflattering. Someone decided to create a Twitter for the leg. On the @AngelinaJoliesL account, this person said, “Stepped into my rightful place in history at the 2012 Oscars.” It was the talk of the town and resulted in a lot of chuckles. We are sure that everyone would have talked about how good these stars look together if it had not been for this photo.
Her Leg Was Too Far Out
Katy Perry Took The Cake
This pop musician performed at the 2008 MTV Latin America Music Awards. It is not a secret that Katy Perry knows how to put on a show. This event was not an exception to the rule! Unfortunately, things went wrong when she jumped into a huge cake. She ended up slipping on the cake pieces and tumbling down as she attempted to walk off the stage. It was a huge mess. We are sure that this turn of events mortified her. On top of that, the accident made us feel bad for the person who had to clean it up.
Katy Perry Took The Cake
Emma Thompson Tumbled Down
In 2013, Emma Thompson was honored with a cemented handprint at the TLC Chinese Theater in Hollywood. The actress, however, lost her balance as she was kneeling close to the block of cement. We are glad that she was able to laugh it off. She decided to take it lightheartedly by making the fall look even more dramatic by sprawling across the red carpet. At the time, she was already emotional from the touching speech delivered by Tom Hanks. It is impressive to see that she found a way to make light of it.
Emma Thompson Tumbled Down
John Travolta And His Weird Duck Face
Best known for playing Danny Zuko in Grease, it looks like John Travolta has lost some of his smoothness. The actor leaned in to pretend he was kissing Scarlett Johansson. It did not help that she is slim, while he was a rather big guy. We are not big fans of the awkward position of his hand on her belly either. This is not something you would want to do unless you are especially close with the other person. What makes things even worse was that she did not look amused in the slightest. Yikes.
John Travolta And His Weird Duck Face
Liang Jingke Was In A Tight Spot
In 2016, Chinese actress Liang Jingke showed up at the Venice Film Festival. She was there to watch The Light Between Oceans. The star looked fabulous in this tight jade green dress. Sadly, it literally caused her downfall. She ended up tripping and falling on her knees. The outfit was too tight to get up on her own, so she had to be helped up by other stars. While this is not the most flattering photo of her out there, it is definitely a dramatic one. We are sure that she was not happy about the accident.
Liang Jingke Was In A Tight Spot
The Most Awkward Handshake Ever
Reese Witherspoon and Felicity Jones are both big stars in their own right. We are sure that they are at least amicable with each other, but you would not have thought so based on this photo. Something looked off as they exchanged a handshake at the red carpet. What makes it so weird is that they are not holding each other by the hand but by the wrist! We do not know why they were greeting each other like this. We guess that one of them was going in for a hug while the other stuck to a handshake.
The Most Awkward Handshake Ever
Naomi Watts Almost Missed
In 2015, the cast of Birdman brought home the Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture Award. The movie certainly benefited people like Amy Ryan, Emma Stone, Zach Galifianakis, Edward Norton, and Naomi Watts. Sadly, Watts slipped and nearly fell forward onto her costars or the stand as she walked up to the mic. This was already bad enough, but what really made it worse was that the entire thing was caught on tape. You could see how surprised they all were for this very reason. The shock seemed genuine to us!
Naomi Watts Almost Missed
Stella McCartney Tore Up Riri’s Dress
The Met Gala has seen a lot of fascinating outfits over the years. Stella McCartney is best known as a fashion designer and a child of Paul McCartney. She had a very awkward encounter with Rihanna. The designer lifted her heel when it got tangled in the beautiful skirt the singer was wearing. She was able to stay upright by steady herself on Riri and Kate Bosworth, but we are sure that it was humiliating for both of them. We are sure that none of them wanted this to happen.

Emma Stone And The Awkward Hug
We absolutely love Emma Stone. She has always been one of the coolest people in Hollywood. In 2016, she reached the peak of her awkwardness at the Oscars. While director Damien Chazelle was leaning in to kiss his girlfriend, Stone tried to hug him. This resulted in an awkward three-way hug! It was a good thing that he tried to make the actress feel better about it. If you ask us, it takes a great amount of grace to help someone get out of a tight spot. It was still cringe-worthy, but at least he did not make fun of her.
Emma Stone And The Awkward Hug
Sacha Baron Cohen Should Have Left It At Home
It would be an understatement to call Sacha Baron Cohen controversial. No matter where he goes, he gets up to all kinds of antics. This is just who he is, we suppose. In 2012, he attended the Academy Awards in character as Grimsby from The Dictator. While it was a hilarious film, it pushed a lot of buttons. He brought an urn that he said carried the remains of a politician and then spilled it on the red carpet. His shenanigans resulted in an accident. Poor Ryan Seacrest got some ash on his expensive Burberry suit. We doubt that the radio host appreciated the mess.
Sacha Baron Cohen Should Have Left It At Home
John Travolta Should Respect Her Personal Space
We are starting to wonder whether John Travolta has a problem with the concept of personal space. In 2015, he got a little too close and personal with Idina Menzel. As you might already know, he failed to pronounce her name in a famous incident as well. You should probably keep your hands away from other people’s faces. It looks like the singer tried to laugh it off, but he was determined to keep going. No one likes it when people overstep physical boundaries. It is best to keep your hands to yourself, pal.
John Travolta Should Respect Her Personal Space
Enough Was Enough For Kristen Stewart
Say what you will about Kristen Stewart, but we find her incredibly relatable. She slipped on a pair of high heels but ended up taking them off. It might have looked good with her outfit, but it is better to be comfortable than stylish. She decided that enough was enough and slipped off her pail of Louboutins on the red carpet. We love her for staying true to who she is. On top of that, she did not really need the height boost. After all, she is already tall enough as it is—props to her for not caring what others say.
Enough Was Enough For Kristen Stewart
Rami Malek Fell Fast
In 2019, Rami Malek took home the Academy Award for Best Actor. Unfortunately, he missed nearly all the steps as he was getting off the stage. He must have been so thrilled with the win that he almost missed the stairs. In fact, it got so out of hand that others had to help him back up. A medical staff member also rushed to the front row to ensure that he was all right. He looked like he was all right, although we bet that his ego was pretty bruised—what a way to end your speech at the Oscars.
Rami Malek Fell Fast
Princess Mary Nearly Had A Great Fall
The Crown Princess of Denmark showed up at the Bambi Media Awards in Germany in 2014. Princess Mary was there to receive an award for the charity work she has performed. She is on the list because she stumbled on the way down the stairs. It looked like she was about to tumble down, but she was able to balance herself just in time. Despite this, the camera still caught the stumble. Everyone could see that she was incredibly embarrassed by the little mishap. On the bright side, it could have been a lot worse!
Princess Mary Nearly Had A Great Fall
That Is Not Jason Derulo
You may be familiar with this meme. In 2015, newspapers reported that Jason Derulo fell down the stairs during the Met Gala. This is a good case to argue that you should not believe everything you see on the internet. The truth was that this is not even him in the photo. He allegedly did not attend the event at all. It was an anonymous guest who fell down the stairs in the most dramatic way possible. The man in question reached the bottom of the stairs that way. Ouch. That has got to hurt.
That Is Not Jason Derulo
Lindsey Lohan Lying Low
As a child star, Lindsey Lohan made it big by starring in Parent Trap. She went on to appear in more movies such as Mean Girls and Freaky Friday. The actress became a controversial figure due to her party days. In 2014, however, she made headlines for another reason. We are sure that this fall was embarrassing for a person who the paparazzi have hounded for a good chunk of her life. This was taken when she tripped at a film festival in Italy. We all know that she hates the cameras, so this incident must have made her hate it even more.
Lindsey Lohan Lying Low
Nicki Minaj Had A Wardrobe Malfunction
This photo was snapped when Nicki Minaj performed “Bang Bang” with Jessie J and Ariana Grande at the Video Music Awards. The rapper was giving it her all when her outfit split down the middle all of a sudden. She was horrified and dropped the mic as she used both hands to hold it together. Her fellow singers had no choice but to go on without her help. We would be mortified if we suffered a faux pas this huge. Perhaps the first thing about this is that this happened in front of a massive audience.
Nicki Minaj Had A Wardrobe Malfunction
Camila Cabello Was Also Very Shocked
Before she launched her solo career, Camila Cabello first made a name for herself as a part of Fifth Harmony. In 2019, she had been performing at the Grammys when she suffered an outfit malfunction. You see, her miniskirt somehow got caught around the waist. As you can see, she was shocked when it happened. Luckily, she took it all in stride. On Instagram, she said, ”Yesterday, right before I went on, a producer told me I was the first Latina ever to open the Grammys stage, which made me REALLY have a fire in my belly for this performance.” Now that is how you turn an embarrassing situation around.
Camila Cabello Was Also Very Shocked
How Jon Hamm Climbed Up The Stage
In 2015, Jon Hamm must have been delighted to win the Best Actor in a Drama Series category. He received this for playing Don Draper in Mad Men. The Hollywood star decided to do things his way, no matter how odd it was. You see, he attempted to climb onto the stage without relying on the stairs. We have no idea what he thought he was doing, but it was very awkward. Part of it was that the suit was so tight that he could not move all that much. While it was funny to see, no one expected it!
How Jon Hamm Climbed Up The Stage
David Oyelowo Showing Off His Socks
This actor got all dressed up for the Academy Awards in 2015. Nothing about that is surprising. We love the fact that he wore a maroon tux instead of the regular black and white. David Oyelowo showed us that he was not like the other people over there. In fact, he even started to lift his leg to show the camera that his socks even matched his bowtie, jacket, waistcoat, and loafers! We have to say that it is impressive to see how committed he was to the color. Hopefully, more people would follow suit. Get it?
David Oyelowo Showing Off His Socks
Woody Allen And His Wandering Eye
A lot of people think that Scarlett Johansen is among the most beautiful people in Hollywood. She looks even more gorgeous when she gets all dolled up for the red carpet. Her fellow celebrities are not immune to her charms either. In 2008, Woody Allen was caught staring at the actress. However, the camera caught him looking downwards. He should have been more careful about where he looks. This photo was taken during the premiere of one of his movies. Despite this awkward moment, it looks like they are on good terms. She had even defended the director when controversies about him cropped up.
Woody Allen And His Wandering Eye
South Park Creators All Dolled Up
You are probably familiar with South Park, the animated show with a very enthusiastic fanbase. Trey Parker and Matt Stone are the people behind the series. They do not always go to award shows, but they were present at the Academy Awards in 2000. Let us just say that they knew how to make an entrance on the red carpet. They wore gowns that were made especially for the awards show! If you ask us, both of them looked very dashing. We always like it when people push the limits of fashion!
South Park Creators All Dolled Up
Dame Helen Mirren Tripped
It is not a stretch to call Dame Helen Mirren a British celebrity royal. It is never easy to watch a queen fall. She had been at a film festival in Berlin when she tumbled up the red carpet. At the time, she had been 69 years old. She has aged like fine wine and managed to fall as elegantly as possible. We would not have thought it was possible, but she is here to prove us all wrong. She had a high pair of platform heels on, so it is not hard to see why she tripped over the dress. At any rate, she looked fantastic.
Dame Helen Mirren Tripped
Emma Thompson Tackled Hayley Atwell
This beloved actress attended the premiere of The Children Act in London. Emma Thompson was clearly delighted to see Hayley Atwell at the event! After all, that explains why she bear-hugged her fellow British star. We are glad to see that Atwell looked just as thrilled to see her friend. Even if this was the case, there is no way you can miss the look of surprise on her face. We wonder if Thompson was squeezing her a little too hard. In any case, it must have been a delightful little reunion between them.
Emma Thompson Tackled Hayley Atwell
Bradley Cooper Was Attacked
In 2014, Bradley Cooper got the surprise of a lifetime at the 20th Screen Actors Guild Awards. He attended the event with Michael Pena when a Ukrainian journalist ran out to grab at his legs. We are sure that they were all startled and confused by this incident. It looks like the random reporter wanted to freak out the actor. Vitalii Sediuk, you see, has earned a reputation for his tendency to prank celebrities. The actor tried to laugh it off. Amazingly, Sediuk was able to go past security and pull this off. While it was a harmless little prank, we are sure that other people felt uncomfortable.
Bradley Cooper Was Attacked
Ashley Graham Nearly Fell Down
Here is another plus-sized model on the list. Ashley Graham was spotted at the Time 100 Gala event in New York. As always, she was a stunner on the red carpet. She looked at peace in front of the camera until a little faux pas. Her revealing dress got caught on the floor, and this photo was taken at the exact moment that it happened. Fortunately, she was able to land on her ankle and prevented the fall. Even though she could stay upright, we are sure that it was still an embarrassing moment for her.
Ashley Graham Nearly Fell Down
Alysia Reiner Wore A Very Tight Dress
You might be familiar with Alysia Reiner, thanks to her work in Orange Is the New Black. In 2015, she showed up in a red dress that matched the red carpet. It also did a fantastic job of showing off her curves! The number was tight around the knees, so it must have been difficult to walk properly. In fact, she required assistance in the form of someone to hold up the bottom part so that she would sashay down the red carpet. We wonder if she learned her lesson after this inconvenient outfit.
Alysia Reiner Wore A Very Tight Dress
Hayden Panettiere Also Fell Prey To Her Dress
The Heroes actress also fell victim to her dress. Let us start by saying that Hayden Panettiere looked amazing in her Tom Ford gown with its poofy skirt. Sadly, it made it a struggle to descend the stairs at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Someone came to lift her, but she was able to make it to her feet. The Hollywood star took it all in stride and even joked with the photographer who caught the moment on tape. We could all learn from her. If things go wrong, you can simply laugh it off.
Hayden Panettiere Also Fell Prey To Her Dress
Jools Holland Flailing On The Floor
Best known for hosting Later… with Jools Holland on the BBC, Jools Holland is a talented guy who also works as a composer and pianist. He is typically a serious guy, but he was seen goofing off at the GQ Men of the Year Awards in 2014. He ended up tripping on the red carpet, which was not attached to the floor completely. He did not just fall down but also flailed on his back. We are glad that he milked it instead. Once he got back up, he even bowed to the cameramen for good measure.
Jools Holland Flailing On The Floor
Adam Levine Proved He Is A Gentleman
The Maroon 5 frontman is one of the most popular male singers in the world. We are sure that Behati Prinsloo is happy to call him her husband. In 2015, he showed us that he was a gentleman as well. At the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, her dress was a bit too loose and slipped off her chest! Even though she is a model with an enviable figure, we doubt that she wanted to expose herself like that. Her husband stepped in to help her out as she sorted out the issue. In the end, they simply laughed it off.
Adam Levine Proved He Is A Gentleman
Melissa Joan Hart And Her Facial Powder
If you watched Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, we doubt that you need us to tell you who Melissa Joan Hart. She showed up at the premiere of Frozen, but it looks like her makeup was not ready for the cameras. You see, face powder has to be rubbed in to ensure that there would be no flashback. It looks like the makeup artist had been in a rush, which resulted in this very unflattering photo of her. We bet that the actress ended up finding someone else to do her makeup for the event that came after this one. How embarrassing this must have been.
Melissa Joan Hart And Her Facial Powder
Marion Cotillard Is Always Elegant
This French actress has a great resume thanks to her career. It goes without saying that Marion Cotillard is no stranger to the red carpet! In 2008, she attended the Cannes Film Festival. All of a sudden, one of her earrings fell off her ear. The closure bit came undone, so she had to pull off a “bend and snap” move to pick it up. How is it possible to bend down like this and still look beautiful? She managed to look graceful even though she was in a tight jumpsuit. We can only wish that we had even a fraction of her grace.
Marion Cotillard Is Always Elegant
America Ferrera Was Also Victimized
When America Ferrera showed up at the premiere of the second How to Train Your Dragon movie, she fell prey to the Ukrainian journalist. Once more, Vitalii Sediuk snuck past security and tried to go under her gown. At the time, she had been striking a pose with Cate Blanchett and Kit Harrington when he struck. We are sure that no one will ever forget a stunt like that. Despite this, we are glad that security got there in time to help her out. As you can see, they had no choice but to carry him off.
America Ferrera Was Also Victimized
Tre Cool In An Uncool Moment
Born Frank Edwin Wright, Tree Cool did not live up to his nickname in 2019. At the Europe Music Awards, the drummer of Green Day ended up tumbling out of the car. Perhaps the worst part of this story is that he fell right out of the car at the beginning of the red carpet itself. We would have been mortified if we were in his shoes. Nonetheless, he showed us that he is a true rock star by shrugging it off. That is the correct attitude when something embarrassing happens to you. Take note, folks.
Tre Cool In An Uncool Moment
When Amy Poehler And Tiny Fey Are Together
There is a phrase that goes, “climbing up the stairs.” It looks like comediennes Tina Fey and Amy Poehler took the saying to a whole new level by doing this to appear on the stage. They did this at the Emmy Awards in 2013. The good news is that they were both wearing ballgowns that ensured they did not expose anything they did not want to reveal. You never know what is going to happen when you have these two funny women together. We are eager to see what they come up with next time.
When Amy Poehler And Tiny Fey Are Together
Margot Robbie And Jonah Hill At The Golden Globes
Jonah Hill and Margot Robbie got to know each other better when they worked on The Wolf of Wall Street. In 2014, they were reunited to present at the Golden Globes. They were meant to show a clip from the new Martin Scorsese movie when they noticed the teleprompter’s error. The actor called it out and explained that the screen was showing the wrong words. In the end, they got a hard copy of the script that was on hand. Can you believe that something like that can even happen?
Margot Robbie And Jonah Hill At The Golden Globes
Jennifer Lawrence Tripped Once More
You had not seen the last of Jennifer Lawrence on this slideshow just yet! In 2013, she turned heads in her white ball gown that made her look radiant. She was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress, which she brought home for Silver Lining’s Playbook. The actress must have been overwhelmed as she tripped in front of everyone as she climbed the stage to accept the award. After getting back to her feet, she accepted the Oscar with grace. She told the audience that they could only stand since she had already fallen so badly. When all else fails, rely on your charm!
Jennifer Lawrence Trips Big Time
Kanye West Interrupted Taylor Swift
In 2009, we got to witness one of the most iconic award show events at MTV’s Video Music Awards. We are referring to the incident between Taylor Swift and Kanye West. As the pop singer accepted the award for the best music video of the year, the rapper snatched the mic out of her hand. According to him, Beyonce should have won instead! For what it is worth, Queen Bey looked very embarrassed and felt bad for the younger musician. Swift was at a loss for words. No one could have expected that!
Kanye West Interrupted Taylor Swift
Heidi Klum Should Not Have Trusted Him
As the host of the Emmy Awards in 2008, Heidi Klum got all dressed up. The model, however, fell in the middle of a skit that could have still used some work. It involved pretending to faint and fall into the arms of her co-host Tom Bergerson. The error happened because he did not hold out his arms and catch her in time. She fell hard onto the stage with nothing to ease the drop. We are sure that she wound up with bruises not just on her torso and arms but also on her ego. Ouch.
Heidi Klum Should Not Have Trusted Him
Jennifer Garner Slipping And Sliding
In 2006, Jennifer Garner was on the stage at the Academy Awards to announce the Best Soundtrack category winner. All of a sudden, she wobbled and nearly fell over as she walked towards the mic. Her heel got caught in her Michael Kors gown! She made a funny facial expression, which we can forgive since she nearly fell flat on her face. It was a good thing that this happened at a significant event in the industry. With all the excitement about the awards, most people went on to forget about it. Whew.
Jennifer Garner Slipping And Sliding
Cara Delevingne Took Him Down With Her
Before Cara Delevingne started to act, she was a model first. She certainly left an impression with her boyish attitude and thick eyebrows. In 2014, she attended the GQ Men of the Year Awards and made headlines for an unusual incident. You see, she nearly spilled her drink on a nearby fashion designer. This was not even the worst of it just yet. She fell over and stumbled into him, grabbing him and taking her down with him. They rolled on the floor. We have no idea what happened, but it did not look fun.
Cara Delevingne Took Him Down With Her
Jessica Alba Made It Look Good
Is there anything that Jessica Alba can’t do? She is not just talented but also beautiful inside and out. In 2006, she attended the Teen Choice Awards and stumbled on the carpet! Somehow, she still made her stumble look good. How is that fair? She was understandably a bit flustered, but she still flashed a radiant smile. On top of that, her outfit did not look mussed at all. It should be impossible for anyone to look this beautiful while falling, but here we are. We wish we were as effortless as her!
Jessica Alba Made It Look Good
Michael Cera Is Just Like His Characters
In most of his films, Michael Cera plays an awkward guy. It makes a lot of sense since he is quite an awkward guy in real life too! In 2013, he tripped over his own two feet at the Sundance Film Festival. He had been standing there when he suddenly fell over and fell to the ground. Catalina Sandino had been standing close to him and tried to break his fall to no avail. In the end, they simply made a joke of it!
Michael Cera Is Just Like His Characters
Jennifer Lawrence Skipped The Steps
When Jennifer Lawrence attended the Oscars in 2018, she decided to give up on pretending to be classy and posh. She decided to embrace her embarrassing inner self instead! The actress donned this gorgeous dress, which she did not mind hitching around her hips. She did so in the hopes of skipping the row of seats instead of making her way down the row. It might have saved her some time, but we are worried about that gorgeous Dior dress. We hope that it did not sustain a rip or two while she was at it.
Jennifer Lawrence Skipped The Steps
Jennifer Garner With Her Hands In The Air
What is it with actresses called Jennifer tripping at award shows? In 2013, Jennifer Garner donned a stunning red dress that accentuated all of her curves. However, she nearly lost her balance after taking a step forward too quickly. She flailed her arms in the hopes of catching herself in the nick of time. We are glad that it did not fluster her too much. In fact, she was able to laugh it off once all was said and done. She might be a bit clumsy, but she can shrug it off with grace and ease.
Jennifer Garner With Her Hands In The Air
Petra Nemcova Laughed It All Off
Isn’t Petra Nemcova gorgeous? The Czech model had been walking down the red carpet at Cannes when she fell. The culprit is none other than her fabulous dress. She tripped on it and stumbled toward the ground. It was a good thing that she caught herself just in time to avoid a full-blown face plant. She had been laughing at herself so much that ushers had to help her stand back up. We are glad that she found humor in it. If it were us, we would have been praying for the ground to swallow us up instead.
Petra Nemcova Laughed It All Off
Virginie Efiraget Needed Help Standing Up
This lovely actress found herself in quite a tight spot at the Cannes Film Festival in 2019. The problem was that the buckle of her strappy heels came undone. We are sure that she would have tripped if she walked up the stairs like that. It was a good thing that there was a gentleman to help her out. Niels Schneider helped her prevent a Cinderella moment. He bent down to buckle it for her as she held up her dress. This was quite a lovely moment between the colleagues! It was like something out of a fairytale.
Virginie Efiraget Needed Help Standing Up
Christoph Waltz With His Odd Limp
There has never been any doubt that Christoph Waltz is a talented actor. We have seen him take on so many roles over the years, after all. He is from that rare breed of actors who can pull off dramatic and funny roles. In 2018, he showed us that he does not only pretend. At Cannes, he walked around with a weird limp. No one knew if it was the real deal or not. He even looked right at the camera as if challenging us to figure it out for ourselves. Sorry to disappoint you guys, but we have no clue.
Christoph Waltz With His Odd Limp
Karolina Kurkova Was Nearly Strangled
In 2012, the Ballet in New York City held a gala attended by a lot of stars. The celebrities got together to express support for the culture and arts scene in the Big Apple. Karolina Kurkova is Victoria’s Secret model who donned a red dress to the event. The flowing cape was striking, but it was also very inconvenient. As you can see in this photo, another guest stepped on it as she walked the other way! This resulted in an unpleasant chokehold that absolutely no one in attendance expected.
Karolina Kurkova Was Nearly Strangled
Gwyneth Paltrow Now Regrets This Look
“I should have worn a bra to the 2002 Oscars,” said the actress. We can’t help but agree with that sentiment. As usual, Gwyneth Paltrow looked great. However, she would have been better up covering up her Alexander McQueen dress. She would have donned a lighter eye makeup look and skipped the updo for a beachy, wavy hairdo as well. We are glad to see that she is always on a quest for self-improvement! If you ask us, there is no other way to live life to the fullest.
Gwyneth Paltrow Now Regrets This Look
Will Smith Getting All Worked Up
On the red carpet, Vitalii Sediuk, a controversial Ukrainian “prankster,” hugged Will Smith and then attempted to kiss him. “What the hell is your problem, buddy?” the actor slapped Vitalii in response.

A Comment On Her Tan
TNT reporter Danielle Demski told Rashida Jones at the 2015 SAG Awards that she looked “like she just came off an island or something” and that she was “tan and tropical.” “I mean, you know, I’m multicultural,” Jones, who is biracial, said succinctly. JD Heyman, a white co-reporter, inexplicably said, “me too.”
A Comment On Her Tan
Amy’s Face-Plant
On the red carpet, Amy Schumer cheekily face-planted in front of Kimye, and the couple walked around her without batting an eye. On The Graham Norton Show, Schumer later explained her decision to dive in front of Kimye, saying, “…I saw Kim and Kanye standing there, simply owning it, simply being short and heavy. And because I find dropping to be the most amusing thing in the world, I dove in front of them.” It’s epic.
Amy’s Face Plant
She Defended Her Intelligence
“Being on the Big Bang Theory, how many people—not because you aren’t a genius—think you can solve calculus at the drop of a hat?” a reporter asked The Big Bang Theory actress *and neuroscientist* Mayim Bialik. To the offensive question, Bialik brilliantly responded, “For many years, I studied calculus. You may not be aware that I am a neuroscientist.”
She Defended Her Intelligence
Mother And Daughter Moment
This cringe-worthy experience started out innocently enough: Melanie Griffith had seen the film Fifty Shades of Grey, right? She hadn’t — and she had made it clear that she didn’t want to. “All right, then! You’re not allowed to see it!” Johnson finally lost his cool. Many memes were inspired by the #momyoureembarrassingme exchange.
Mother And Daughter Moment
Swan Dress
This is among the most popular bird dresses of all time — isn’t that a thing? Six ostrich eggs were also brought by Björk (consider them accessories). “I was carefully dropping them on the red carpet,” she later told GQ. “However, other people’s bodyguards kept picking them up and asking, ‘Excuse me, ma’am, you dropped this,’ in heavy American accents.”

Messing With E!
Debra Messing told E!’s Rancic, “I was so surprised to learn that E! doesn’t believe in paying their female co-hosts the same as their male co-hosts.” She was referring to former E! co-host Catt Sadler. Sadler left the network in December 2017 after discovering that her male counterpart, Jason Kennedy, was paid almost twice as much.

Nothing Is Real
Look no further than Catt Sadler trying to rein in a very philosophical Jim Carrey if you want to see a red-carpet reporter work hard for her money. He said of his attendance at Harpers Bazaar’s ICONS party, “I wanted to find the most pointless thing that I could come to and enter.” He then went on to demonstrate how nothing, even himself, was true.

Going Home With A Lot Of Men
“You’re going to walk with more than a trophy tonight, I guess, loads of guys,” ET’s Nancy O’Dell told Taylor Swift when interviewing her on the 2015 Grammys red carpet. Taylor retaliated with possibly the most ferocious death glare in history. “I’m not leaving tonight with any guys,” she declared. The conversation improved after that, but it had gotten off to a rocky start, to begin with.

The Color Of Her Dress
Joan Rivers ridiculed Nicole Kidman for the hue of her gown at the 1997 Academy Awards. “Nicole, it’s you! Come on, tell me why you picked such an unattractive color! “she said Nicole moved on by, either not noticing Rivers or preferring to converse with people who wouldn’t insult her. Rivers kept flowing “I hate that color! You are making me puke!”

How Are You Feeling?
At the 2018 Grammys, Giuliana Rancic and Lil Uzi Vert were not on the same page, at least not in terms of their excitement rate. This is how the talk went: Giuliana: How do you feel right now? Lil Uzi Vert: I’m in a good mood. That’s all right.

She Kissed Her Brother
Angelina Jolie kissed her guest on the red carpet when she was a first-time Oscar nominee in 2000. The reality that her guest, James Haven, was her brother added to the excitement. Jolie told PEOPLE four years later, “First and foremost, we’re the best of friends. It wasn’t some weird open-mouthed kiss, either. It was disheartening to see something so lovely and innocent turned into a circus.”

She Talked About Tampons
“Who are you wearing?” is an anticipated query on the red carpet, but Amy Schumer gave a surprising response at the 2016 Emmys. “An OB tampon!” she exclaimed candidly to Giuliana Rancic. Congratulations.

Hidden Fences
Jenna Bush Hager, who interviewed Pharrell, the producer of Hidden Figures, asked him about a nonexistent film called “Hidden Fences.” Hidden Figures and Fences, both nominated movies with predominantly black casts, were merged into the non-title. The next morning, Bush Hager apologized, and Pharrell and Hidden Figures stars Janelle Monae and Octavia Spencer accepted the apology via Twitter.

He Avoided The Question
An ET reporter asked Will Arnett how he and his wife planned for the event after their divorce from Amy Poehler. “I don’t even have a significant other… she doesn’t exist,” Arnett replied. “I’m excited, I can’t wait to watch this back on YouTube all week,” he said at the end of the conversation.

Not Today
At the David Lynch Foundation’s “A Night of Laughter and Song” Kesha approached Jerry Seinfeld and requested for a hug. He declined her request. He said “no thanks” when she asked again (“just a little one?”). When reporter Tommy McFly told him that Seinfeld didn’t know who Kesha was, he replied, “Okay, well, I wish her the best.”

The Prankster
Vitalii Sediuk, the notorious “prankster” who tried to kiss Will Smith in 2012, snuck his head underneath America Ferrera’s dress while on the red carpet in Cannes for How to Train Your Dragon 2. He held tight to her ankle as security attempted to pull him backward. The incident was later identified by Ferrera as “a strange mad dream.”

Ridiculous Question
“Are you going to the rehearsal with the shoes you’re wearing tonight?” Seacrest enquired. “What a stupid question,” Johansson retorted quickly. She wasn’t mistaken.

Kendall’s Dress
Anyone who attended the 2019 Academy Awards managed to see Kendall Jenner walk the red carpet, and we mean SEE Kendall Jenner. As she strutted her stuff in a very revealing outfit, people got to see almost the entire lower half of her body.

Her Dress Broke
Accepting the ShoWest Awards’ Female Star of the Year award is a major honor, and Katherine Heigl was honored with it in 2010. The speech had been planned ahead of time. The ensemble was flawless. Isn’t it true that all she had to do was enjoy the moment? It seemed that way until Katherine’s dress’s strap snapped and she nearly fell down. Thankfully, Billy Bush was on hand to keep Katherine’s dress in place as she went on with her speech.

Fixing Her Dress
There’s no business like show business, and our favorite celebrities sometimes have to figure out how to keep the lights on. In 2012, the team from the sitcom “Modern Family” got their hard work and commitment rewarded. They made it to the Emmys and won the Best Comedy Series award. Sofia Vergara was backstage having her gown fixed 20 minutes before she took the stage to accept the award when they should have been celebrating.

What Happened?
Ariel Winter’s character on the ABC sitcom Modern Family is slightly more conservative onscreen, but she’s a lot more daring off-screen. Ariel is known for taking fashion risks in real life, so when she walked the red carpet at the 2017 Emmy Awards, every camera was trained on her. She wore a glitzy halter gown with not one, but two dangerously high slits. Fortunately, she avoided a mishap, but she did appear uneasy for the majority of the night.

Supporitve Undergarment
We could go to the gym every day or we could eat a cookie now and then and rely on a pair of Spanx to keep us in shape. We all know which option sounds more enjoyable, and Jennifer Garner appears to agree. Before arriving on the red carpet, the actress must have thought it was a great idea to wear the supportive undergarments. Is this the thing she really needed? Her dress could use some shorts or a weighted hem.

A Tear In The Dress
The Oscars are a time for celebrities to come together and congratulate one another on their achievements. Of course, it’s also a chance to flaunt the most expensive outfits available. When Hailee Steinfeld walked the red carpet in 2017, she stole the show. However, it turns out that there had been a minor wardrobe malfunction right in front of our eyes the whole time. You can see a tear in the material above Hailee’s waist if you look closely at the stitching.

Billowing Skirt
Some celebrities have left an indelible mark on history. Since she graced the Golden Age of Hollywood all those years ago, Marilyn Monroe has been a name that has lived on for generations. Her billowing skirt over a subway vent, of course, became one of the most famous photographs ever taken. Since then, many of us have fantasized about recreating the image. Lindsay Vonn apparently thought she’d give it a shot in 2016, but ended up revealing a little more than she intended.

There’s A Tag
Since she began dating Prince Harry, Meghan Markle has been the talk of the town. The couple married in May 2018, but that was only the start of their relationship. The newlyweds embarked on their first official tour a few months after the ceremony. Of course, being a member of the Royal Family immediately makes you the talk of the fashion world. We’re not sure if the tag on Meghan’s dress was supposed to be there, but it only added to the public’s admiration for her.

Kim Kardashian has attended some of the most notable events in Hollywood over the years as a member of one of the world’s most famous families. She was one of the select few invited to the Broadway premiere of “The Cher Show.” Kim may have expected to dress to stand out, but she didn’t intend to fall out.

Unfortunately, the zipper broke during the evening, revealing more than Kaitlyn had anticipated. She was at a loss for what to do and claimed it was impossible for her to stand up. When a nearby couple noticed the incident, they offered Kaitlyn a jacket to wear whenever she needed to stand.

Wardrobe Malfunction
It’s difficult to pick just one of Mariah Carey’s wardrobe mishaps. Mariah Carey’s outfits have become so famous for going awry that many people have compiled lists of her best wardrobe moments over the years. Mariah, on the other hand, appears to have been through more than her fair share since she began dating Bryan Tanaka. Since then, the list has grown to include everything from slipped outfits on date nights to bathing suits with their own minds in Hawaii.
