Remember how amazing Keke Palmer looked at the premiere of Think Like a Man Too? Her svelte Cushnie et Ochs dress was a stunner, but it turns out there was more to it than what met the eye.
The Scream Queens star is known for her keen sense of humor so it’s no surprise that she had a funny fashion story up her sleeve and in an exclusive interview with ESSENCE.com she dished on her craziest style moment.

“Everybody loved my outfit at the Think Like a Man premiere, and it was so funny. I was really excited about that dress, I thought it was so cool, something I had never worn before, right?”

“What everybody didn’t know was that my hand was on my hip right there because the dress had ripped moments before I went on the carpet. So every time I look at that picture, it’s like no one knew that that dress had literally popped. My hip busted the side out, I guess. So on all my pictures, my hand is on my hip, and that’s why.”
That, ladies and gentlemen, is a lesson in how to play off a fashion fiasco.
