From Ricky Martin to Janet Jackson to Lil Nas X to Madonna, not even [celebrities](https://www.out.com/famous-gay-people) are exempt from experiencing a wardrobe malfunction. This has happened to a lot of singers who had their outfits destroyed during a performance, but it's happened to celebs on red carpets, too\! See our list of 10 wardrobe malfunctions from celebrities below. ## Ricky Martin — 2025 MTV Video Music Awards (September 2025) First things first\! The latest wardrobe malfunction to make headlines came from [Ricky Martin](https://www.out.com/gay-music/ricky-martin-world-aids-day-concert-watch) as he prepared to attend, perform in, and accept a special trophy at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards. The Puerto Rican singer's [pants simply came undone](https://www.out.com/gay-music/ricky-martin-wardrobe-malfunction-thirst-traps), but he made it work anyway… And shared a few thirst traps, as a treat, of course. ## Sign me up\!

Viewers were split — some argued that it was campy and hilarious, while others questioned if this was a stunt to bring attention to herself on *CBBUK*. Considering that Courtney won that season of *CBBUK*, she emerged as a winner nonetheless. ## Harry Styles — 'Love on Tour' concert (January 2023) [Harry Styles](https://www.out.com/celebs/harry-styles-best-schlong-ever) has been experimenting with all sorts of aesthetics in the past few years, [turning looks and stunting pretty](https://www.buzzfeed.com/jennaguillaume/turning-looks-stunting-pretty) at different award shows, concerts, magazine covers, and special performances. Yet, it's clear from this TikTok video that Styles did *not* anticipate [his pants completely tearing apart](https://people.com/style/harry-styles-rips-pants-los-angeles-concert-video/) while being right in front of the audience at this January 2023 concert from *Love on Tour*. ## Miley Cyrus — 'Miley's New Year's Eve Party' (December 2021)  Miley Cyrus performing at the *Miley's New Year's Eve Party* on NBC. NBC One could assume that [Miley Cyrus](https://www.out.com/gay-music/new-music-friday-miley-cyrus-jake-wesley-rogers)' wardrobe malfunction happened during her *Bangerz* era — but no, that actually wasn't the case at all\! In 2021, Cyrus hosted a fabulous *Miley's New Year's Eve Party* telecast in which she [dealt with a wardrobe malfunction](https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/miley-cyrus-wardrobe-malfunction-new-years-eve-1235015112/). Honestly, it feels pretty on-brand for a piece of clothing to malfunction at New Year's Eve, but Cyrus handled it like a pro. ## Lil Nas X — 'Saturday Night Live' (May 2021) [Lil Nas X](https://www.out.com/news/lil-nas-x-post-arrest-new-video-watch)'s first-ever appearance on *Saturday Night Live* was during his *Montero* era, which included the hit song "Call Me By Your Name." The out rapper delivered on the promise of giving fans an iconic performance on *SNL* — he just didn't realize that this [would include his pants getting tore](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/lil-nas-x-wardrobe-malfunction-montero-snl-1173476/), prompting him to cover his crotch for the entire end of the performance. ## Cardi B — Bonnaroo Festival (June 2019)  Cardi B performs at the 2019 Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival. Erika Goldring/WireImage Cardi B proudly likes her big butt (and she cannot lie), but this wardrobe malfunction was definitely not something he was expecting. During a set at the 2019 Bonnaroo Festival, [Cardi B's jumpsuit ripped open on the behind](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/lifestyle/style/bonnaroo-cardi-b-performs-bathrobe-wardrobe-malfunction-1219006/) and prompted the singer to change into a bathrobe for the rest of the performance. Iconic, hilarious, and *campy*, even. ## Madonna — The BRIT Awards (February 2015) This was frankly one of the most traumatizing moments for [Madonna](https://www.out.com/gay-music/madonna-elton-john-feud-ending-instagram-picture-statement) fans (and the singer herself) in the past 10 years. Madge had just started to promote her *Rebel Heart* album with "Living for Love" as its lead single. While performing the song at The BRIT Awards 2015 — live, on national TV — the cape that Madonna was wearing didn't come undone, causing [the Queen of Pop](https://www.out.com/film/madonna-julia-garner) to literally fall onto the floor in the performance. Madonna, a phenomenal performer with decades of experience, got right back up and kept the show going. But was it really upsetting to see the Queen of Pop falling down because of a wardrobe malfunction? Yes, it was. In the words of [Edna Mode: "No. Capes. Ever!"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YL3w73MAuIM) ## Cate Blanchett — 'Borderlands' premiere event (August 2024) One of the most hilarious wardrobe malfunctions of all time happened to [Cate Blanchett](https://www.out.com/celebs/cate-blanchett-quit-hollywood-explained) at the premiere of *Borderlands*. Thankfully, Jamie Lee Curtis was nearby, saw what happened, and ran to shield Blanchett with her own body. In this interview with *Entertainment Tonight*, Blanchett laughed at the situation while also being horrified. On the other hand, Curtis acted like the whole thing was no big deal at all… And just stood there, behind Blanchett for the entire interview, to protect the actress from being exposed. Icons indeed\! ## Emily Blunt — 'Oppenheimer' premiere in London (July 2023) Speaking of friends saving friends: Emily Blunt also had a wardrobe function while attending the grand premiere of *Oppenheimer* in London. Y'know, no big deal\! Thankfully, Florence Pugh came to the rescue and helped Blunt not get fully exposed. We love to see it. ## Janet Jackson — Super Bowl XXXVIII (February 2004) There's nothing even remotely funny about [Janet Jackson'](https://www.out.com/popnography/2017/11/10/janet-jackson-honored-2017-music-icon-award-out100-gala)s wardrobe malfunction at the Super Bowl in February 2004, where she performed alongside Justin Timberlake and had a "nip slip" moment in front of millions of viewers at home. The outrage [over this Super Bowl incident](https://www.out.com/popnography/2019/2/04/least-super-bowl-commercials-were-pretty-gay) (which was clearly an *accident*) hurt Jackson's career for many years. In turn, it didn't affect Timberlake at all, even though he was the person who (also accidentally) exposed Jackson in the performance. It's certainly a noteworthy wardrobe malfunction, but one that we wish had never happened. This moment was such a cultural milestone that every single performer who performed at Halftime Shows over the years suddenly had to adhere to a new policy of wearing adhesives that would make sure their breasts were not exposed under any circumstances. ## From our Sponsors ## Top Stories [](https://www.out.com/celebs/caitlyn-jenner-hypocrite-woman-of-the-year) ### [Caitlyn Jenner tells right-wing podcast she's 'a hypocrite' to accept 'Woman of the Year' award](https://www.out.com/celebs/caitlyn-jenner-hypocrite-woman-of-the-year) Apr 14, 2026 [](https://www.out.com/celebs/jacob-tierney-hiv) ### [Heated Rivalry's Jacob Tierney goes viral for getting candid about his HIV diagnosis](https://www.out.com/celebs/jacob-tierney-hiv) Apr 15, 2026 [](https://www.out.com/celebs/milo-miles-banned) ### [Gay adult film star banned from US for 10 years following 'painful' interrogation](https://www.out.com/celebs/milo-miles-banned) Apr 13, 2026 [](https://www.out.com/gay-music/madonna-confessions-dance-floor-return) ### [Madonna's return is politically momentous for LGBTQ+ people](https://www.out.com/gay-music/madonna-confessions-dance-floor-return) Apr 15, 2026 [](https://www.out.com/celebs/joey-mills) ### [Adult star Joey Mills says men 'aren't entitled to my phone number' after a hookup](https://www.out.com/celebs/joey-mills) Apr 16, 2026 ## More For You ### [Ryan Phillippe rocks tiny shorts in a sweaty new sauna selfie](https://www.out.com/celebs/ryan-phillippe-sauna) [Ricky Cornish](https://www.out.com/authors/ricky-cornish) Apr 16, 2026 [](https://www.out.com/celebs/ryan-phillippe-sauna) Ryan Phillippe at Prime Video's "Motorheads" special screening held at the Ted Mann Theater.
