Celebrity Wardrobe Malfunctions of 2021: From Embarrassing Flashes to Broken Zippers

- Top Ad -

One could hardly escape the pull towards idolizing celebrities no matter how many times they prove themselves to be just like everyone else. Sometimes, all it takes is a wardrobe malfunction.

From their lifestyle to their mode of dressing, the celebrity effect can’t be overstressed. This obsession with living up to the lifestyle of public figures makes it seem almost like they aren’t your everyday humans.

Yet, these icons are in fact humans like the rest of the world. The additional responsibilities to lead fashion trends, define lists of what’s acceptable, and maintain perfection at all times are simply expectations from fans, mostly unrealistic.

While presenting the ARIA Awards to Justin Bieber and Kid La Rai for their single, “Stay,” Charli XCX’s dress strap refused to stay in place.

The “Good Times” singer experienced an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction when one of her straps slipped down her shoulder while waving the awards recipients goodbye.

She quickly rushed to grab the strap of the black dress, but not before the camera caught a glimpse of her exposed breast. The star expertly laughed off the moment.

Luckily, the England native presented the awards virtually, from her home, making it possible for the producers to edit the nip slip out of the show that aired on YouTube. Charli took to Instagram days later to share the hilarious moment, albeit a censored version.

2. Lil Nas X On “Saturday Night Live”

In what was undoubtedly the most embarrassing stage moment in 2021, rapper Lil Nas X split his pants during his live performance on “Saturday Night Live.”

The fashion slip happened while he was singing “Montero (Call Me By Your name,” during the May 2021 performance. For the occasion, he donned tight pants, which proved too tight for his planned pole dance.

The outfit ripped in the groin area just as he grabbed the pole, forcing the rapper to spend the rest of his performance concealing his crotch.

Many believed the fashion faux pas was premeditated. However, the icon took to Twitter to clarify that he never planned to rip his pants on television.

3. Lady Gaga At “The Late Show”

While leaving “The Late Show,” on November 15, Lady Gaga was unprepared for the gust of wind that greeted her outside the premises. 

Photos of the singer-actress leaving the event showed her exposed nude underwear after a gust of wind blew her high-slit black skirt completely open.

September 2021 saw the “Need To Know” singer Doja cat perform at the Balmain Fashion Show in Paris. It also gave us another celebrity nip slip as one of the star’s breasts briefly slipped out of her halter neck bra top.

Like the expert she was, Doja handled the situation effortlessly, almost like it never happened.

5. Bella Hadid At The 2021 Cannes Film Festival

Gigi Hadid’s sister, Bella Hadid mirrored her sister’s confidence when she walked the red carpet in a Schiaparelli Haute Couture long-sleeve black dress with her whole bust exposed.

The sultry black dress was cut below the bust, with her breast concealed only by a massive gold necklace shaped like the human lungs.

It turned out those were not enough to keep the model’s breasts from being splashed in the tabloids hours later.

Like Gigi, who had previously walked the runway barefoot following a broken heel, and at another time with an exposed breast after her strap slipped, Bella radiated confidence as she completed the walk, and throughout the event.

6. Katy Perry At Variety’s Power of Women Event

Sometimes, wardrobe malfunctions can become the catalyst for romance, or in Katy Perry’s case, a recipe for making every other woman envious.

The singer and her partner, Orlando Bloom attended Variety’s Power of Women event in September 2021 in each other’s arms. During the occasion, the star’s wardrobe literally malfunctioned, with her corset becoming too tight for comfort.

While performing on stage, she called on her prince charming to help her loosen her undergarment to enable her to sing freely. Bloom stepped up and saved the day, and the songstress sweetly called him her hero.

7. Kristen Stewart At The Met Gala

While the world did not get to witness this mind-blowing moment, it was nonetheless an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction for the “Twilight Actress.”

Reflecting on her brief nip slip at the 2021 Met Gala, the icon, who hit the red carpet clad in head-to-toe Chanel, recalled talking to “a new set of kids” at the Chanel table.

During the exchange, she noticed they looked uncomfortable and somewhat scared, which prompted her to look down. That was when she noticed her nipples peeking out “in their faces.”

She readjusted the outfit immediately and apologized to the kids for the mishap. Thankfully, the cameras missed that brief slip, but those kids would have that registered in their heads for a long time.

8. Jennifer Lopez At Dolce & Gabbana’s Alta Moda Show

Singer-actress Jennifer Lopez stormed the Dolce & Gabbana Alta Moda Show in Venice in August draped in an ornate floral cape. She donned the cape over high-waisted pants and a matching bra top.

The only problem with the ensemble was the price tag sticking out from underneath the cape, screaming to the world the outfit was borrowed.

9. Heidi Klum on “America’s Got Talent”

Victoria’s Secret model Heidi Klum doesn’t seem to mind, but the rest of the world does. While on the set of the competition show, “America’s Got Talent,” the star leaned over while posing with fellow judges Howie Mandel and Sofia Vergara for a shot.

Unfortunately, the 48-year-old seemed to forget all she had on was a feathered mini-dress making it inevitable for her to flash the audience and everyone behind her.

The icon, who has a history of baring skin, shared a sneak peek on social media, adding a note to herself to never bend over in a short skirt again. Who else thinks that note would go to waste?

10. Kim Kardashian’s Fashion Emergency

While every pointer shows that Kim Kardashian’s broken zipper at the Wall Street Journal Magazine’s Innovator Awards counts as a wardrobe malfunction, the reality star seems to think it doesn’t.

For the event held in November, the mother of four donned a black leather dress from her SKIMS x Fendi collection. As she stood up to receive her award as an innovator of brands for her work on SKIMS, the zipper of her outfit burst open.

Luckily, Fendi’s artistic director Kim Jones was by her side to fix the zipper before the merciless lens of the cameras captured it.

Once on stage to receive the honors, the fashion mogul disclosed to the audience she had a “little fashion emergency,” but was lucky to have her Skims shapewear underneath her dress. She also thanked Jones for coming to her aid at the nick of time.

These are some of the most-discussed celebrity wardrobe malfunctions of 2021 that prove these revered idols are as human as everyone else.
