In these uncertain times, it’s a comfort to know there’s one thing we can always depend on: celebrity overexposure. Take the lovely Courteney Cox, who revealed a little more than she intended while playing in the Caribbean surf back in March.
“You know, I was cold,” the actress shrugged to David Letterman after he produced a photo of her accidental vacation titillation.
Courteney’s laid-back attitude is a nice change from the mass hysteria that followed Janet Jackson’s seminal wardrobe malfunction at the 2004 Super Bowl.
Maybe it’s because sartorial slip-ups have become so commonplace nowadays. From singers to starlets, see who else has sent their breast wishes in recent days …
This could be considered overdressed for Lady Gaga, who had a nipular meltdown at the CFDA Awards in June. Later that night, she slipped into something more comfortable to go clubbing, namely, half-dollar-sized pasties and her most formal thong.
Kelly Rowland exposed her twin peaks while performing in New Jersey on Aug. 7, but her main concern was that everyone had a good time. “Hope you enjoyed the show and didn’t mind the peekaboo,” she tweeted. “LOL!!!”
Personally, we think daytime television could benefit from a flesh flash every now and then. ABC, however, disagrees. After Nicki Minaj‘s left breast came out and said hello during her Aug. 5 appearance on “Good Morning America,” the network issued an apology for “certain fleeting images” the audience witnessed over their Wheaties.
In June, a month before Jennifer Lopez reclaimed her independence from husband Marc Anthony, her right boob made a break for freedom during an appearance on the German talk show “Wetten Dass …”
Even the most ladylike stars sometimes reveal too much. Emma Watson wisely used double-sided sticky-tape on her cleavage-heavy frock before heading to a party in February. She just didn’t use enough. And somewhere, Ron is very, very glad she didn’t.
Normally, we’d be pushing away the salty snacks after seeing a photo of Bar Refaeli in a bikini. But our self-esteem remains relatively intact now that we know supermodels can have an off day, too. Here, the former flame of Leonardo DiCaprio tries to get her assets under control while soaking up the sun in Italy.
“I had a nip slip and I loved it!” Khloe Kardashian tweeted after her June 7 appearance on “Fox and Friends.” Seems her stylist told her to wear foundation garments, “but being the naughty girl that I am, I disobeyed and went braless,” she explained. “I have a nipple obsession and personally love when women show their nipples — perhaps I was a member of a nudist colony in my last life.” That said, “To those who I offended, I am very sorry,” added Khloe. “It truly was an accident, but I would be lying if I said I thought this was a big deal.”
In March, Milla Jovovich gave Mikhail Gorbachev a truly thoughtful gift for his 80th birthday gala in London: a double nip slip courtesy of her mesh-topped party dress.
Tired after a long evening of clinging on for dear life, Eva Mendes‘s frock tosses in the towel during a red-carpet appearance in June.
At this stage of Courtney Love‘s career, we know her lady parts better than our own. But that didn’t stop her bits from running amok at a Tibet benefit in March. Chances are her see-through dress had even the Dalai Lama saying, “Honey, show us something we haven’t seen.”
During a Miami photo shoot in May, Lindsay Lohan got her nicotine fix as a cool breeze blew through her lace top. Sadly, we predict a lot more nudity (of the intentional variety) in her future.
