Buying a new pair of trousers can be very tricky, but this grandmother got something she didn’t realise she had paid for.

Chelsea, a busy mum, shared the video on TikTok, where the hilarious mix-up has now gone viral.

The TikTok, which has 11.7 million views even caught the eye of celebrities, The Sun reported.

The video has also been shared on popular pop culture Instagram account betches, which has 8.7 million followers.

Chelsea wrote, “My nana thought these pants were pinstriped,” over the video.

She then zoomed in to her nana’s trousers to reveal that the ‘pinstripes’ were actually tiny, repeated text that said: “F*** You.”

Written vertically, repetitively and in small text, the elderly nana had no chance of being able to read the multiple minute swear words on her new clothes.

American superstar Chelsea Handler commented: “Whoopsiedoodle.”

To which Chelsea, who had shared the video, replied: “OMG fan girling, my whole family calls me Chelsea Handler.”

Chelsea Handler is a comedian, actress, writer, television host, and producer who hosted her own late-night talk show Chelsea Lately from 2007 to 2014.

But while Chelsea’s grandma appeared mortified by the mistake, viewers of the TikTok were obsessed with the tights.

“I’d wear them constantly! where’d she get them?” asked one eager commenter.

She thought they were pinstriped, only to discover they actually displayed a very rude word — which we’ve blurred out here. Picture: TikTok/@chels_bb.

Some told her they had seen them being sold on charliesproject but some said they had been discontinued there and could be found on Redbubble.com or society6.com now.

Remind us all that Santa is on his way, one commenter wrote: “GIRL NANA ON THE NAUGHTY LIST THIS YEAR.”

“Nana is just playing it cool, she knows,” suggested another that Nana is done and meant to have the attitude her trousers suggest.

Some even thought Nan was picking a fight with the statement trousers, saying: “This Grandma wants some!”

Many got protective of the grandma saying: “She’s our nana now,” and “We need to protect her at all costs.”
