THE woman whose backside stole the show at the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony has outed herself, poking fun that it’s ‘all behind me now’ and she hopes everyone had a ‘cracking’ good time.

Brisbane dancer Georgia Lear, 19, had a wardrobe slip-up while dancing in purple swimmers and flashed her bare bottom on live TV during Ricki-Lee Coulter’s beach-themed performance of her new song Technicolour Love.

The accidental flash immediately lit up social media.

Ms Lear posted to Instagram ‘last night I was really BUMMED ... BUTT that’s all BEHIND me now’.

The young woman then joked ‘I hope you all had a CRACKing good time watching the ceremony’. Don’t forget the camera adds 5kg, yes it was me!!!’

25 MIND-MELTING MOMENTS FROM THE OPENING CEREMONY

She became an international sensation when halfway through the song, the camera flashed to a group of dancers as they flung their towels over their backs, but one dancer’s towel got tangled as she ran into a swarm of performers, exposing her bottom to an estimated 1.5 billion viewers.

But don’t feel bummed Georgia! You were one of the highlights of the night!
