Far from the only person to suffer a wardrobe malfunction, Nikki joins a league of other celebs who know how to shrug off a clothing mishap. For instance, Alix Earle expertly navigated a rogue strand of beads on her vintage Bob Mackie halter dress that threatened to spill onto the red carpet at the 2026 Vanity Fair Oscars after-party.  

Explaining how “all the beads start flying off” her gown, she told Entertainment Tonight on March 15, “It was like, ‘Someone, I need a knife,’” she laughed. “So we just sliced it a little bit.”

As for Nikki, she’s done more than laugh off wardrobe malfunctions as of late.

“It was lots of people from high school, you know, people from my Pilates class, my self-tan lady from the strip mall,” she told Kelly and Mark. “But it was fun. It's fine, I guess, that my childhood dentist knows about my sex life now. I guess that's appropriate.”
