Star’s epic Emmys wardrobe malfunction

THIS US Bachelorette star’s dress literally fell apart as she sat in the Emmys audience — and she live-tweeted the mortifying wardrobe malfunction through the night.

IT’S not just the losers who had a rough Emmys night.

US Bachelorette star Kaitlyn Bristowe attended the awards last night, but her evening came to a crashing halt when she suffered a major wardrobe malfunction in the middle of the show. Bristowe shared on Twitter than her dress ripped “right down to mid crack,” exposing her entire butt to the thousands of actors and fans in the audience.

“Sitting in the Emmys and my zipper just busted and my butt is exposed and I can’t get up and I dunno what to do,” Bristowe tweeted. She then posted a photo of her black dress to show fans that it did, in fact, have a very busted zipper. “Proof. It all opens when I stand up. Right down to mid crack,” she said.

Someone, get this lady a coat.

Unfortunately, the wardrobe malfunction happened at a pretty bad time. Bristowe’s dress ripped right before the Television Academy honoured the “First Lady of TV,” Betty White, leaving her unsure of what to do during White’s rousing speech. “I either stood for Betty White and showed by ass, or stayed seated and looked like an ass,” she tweeted. Truly a lose-lose situation.

As fans began offering suggestions — using earrings as a “makeshift bobby pin” was one particularly interesting tip — Bristowe revealed that she’d been “in the wrong seat” all along.

“People are asking me to move,” she shared. At first, Bristowe was able to convince her seat mates to let her stay, but the ushers ultimately decided otherwise. “They came and got us and moved us closer to the front,” she said. “So I had to get up and waddle down in front of everyone, towards the front with my hands clasping my dress.” This girl just can’t catch a break.

At least the wardrobe malfunction wasn’t caught on camera, I guess?
