Katy Perry Suffers Wardrobe Malfunction on American Idol
Pop superstar Katy Perry found herself in a sticky situation during a recent episode of American Idol when her unique chrome top broke, almost leading to a wardrobe malfunction. The incident was captured in an Instagram video shared by the singer, showing her distressed as crew members and fellow judge Luke Bryan tried to fix the top.
In the video, Katy can be heard saying, “My top broke,” and expressing her need for it to stay on. Despite the efforts to reassemble the top, Katy joked about the situation, attributing it to contestant Roman Collins’ performance of James Brown’s “It’s A Man’s Man’s Man’s World.”
Following the incident, Katy clarified to Entertainment Tonight that she didn’t see it as a wardrobe malfunction but rather a comedic moment for television. She recalled a similar incident in 2022 when her pants ripped while performing on the show.
Lionel Richie added to the humor by playfully accusing Luke Bryan of causing the mishap, while Luke defended himself, stating he was only trying to help Katy by using pliers to mend the top.
The light-hearted moment brought some laughter to the set of American Idol and showcased Katy Perry’s ability to handle unexpected situations with grace and humor. Despite the fashion mishap, Katy continued to entertain both the audience and her fellow judges with her infectious personality and quick wit.
