Celebrities are not as immortal as we think they are. As perfect as these stars may seem, they have all had their incredibly embarrassing moments that remind us that they are human. Unfortunately, when they have an embarrassing moment, they also have the paparazzi following them around so everything gets caught on camera.
The Most Embarrassing On-Stage Celebrity Moments That Will Make You Cringe
#1. Amy Schumer
When Amy Schumer threw herself on the ground in front of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West:
The moment happened at the Time 100 Gala in 2015 and definitely seemed more awkward for Kim and Kanye than it was for Amy.
#2. Jennifer Lawrence
When the Catching Fire cast was promoting their movie back in 2013, Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, and Liam Hemsworth had already racked up plenty of hilarious and cute moments in front of the cameras. There was one press stop in particular that had us all cracking up during a panel in Madrid it seems that the castmates had a little downtime, and hilarity ensued when Jennifer tried to open a container of mints and spilled them at the conference!
#3. Kim Kardashian
Kim Kardashian had a scary wardrobe malfunction when the dress she wore to the 2015 CFDA Fashion Awards caught fire! Thankfully, Pharrell and his wife Helen Lasichanh were on hand to put out the flames.
"Shout out to Pharrell and Helen who saved my life last night!" the expectant mother shared on Instagram. "LOL After the awards at dinner the feathers of my dress caught on fire from a candle and they jumped on me to get it out! #WereOn."
#4. John Travolta
First of all there was his cross-dressing in 'Hairspray', then there was the whole "Adele Dazeem" thing, and now there's this... Poor old J-Trav just can't catch a break! The Internet was buzzing at how creepy the 'Grease' star was acting at this year's Oscars. Just a year after getting Idina Menzel's name wrong, he decided to make amends by STROKING HER FACE! Serious, who does that? Oh, the same person who decides to awkwardly kiss Scarlett Johansson, apparently... #cringe
#5. Tom Cruise
As the world is well aware, the Mission: Impossible star couldn't contain himself while declaring his love for then-girlfriend Katie Holmes during a 2005 interview with Winfrey. Cruise, who was known as an uber-private celebrity, pumped his fist in the air, kneeled on the floor, and most notably, jumped on Winfrey's couch with giddiness while confessing his infatuation with Holmes in a moment that has since gone and stayed viral.
"I'm in love. I'm in love and it's one of these things where you want to be cool, like, ‘Yeah I like her'that's not how I feel," a hyper Cruise told the talk show host. "I admired her and I thought I wanted to meet her so I called her because I wanted to meet her. You see someone's work and you hear about them and you hear what a special person she isand I wanted to meet this person and I met her and she's extraordinary."
#6. Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift had a scary moment that she thankfully recovered from quickly when she slipped and fell down a couple stairs on Wednesday night (December 31) in New York City.
The 25-year-old singer was walking off the stage after her performance on the Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2015 special when the moment happened.
#7. Sarah Hyland
Sarah Hyland embarrassed herself at the 2015 Teen Choice Awards. The Modern Family star stumbled on stage en route to present an award with Skylar Astin. As she tripped, she dropped the f-bomb--and pretty much everyone heard her.
Before falling to the stage, Sarah Hyland managed to catch herself, but not before she blurted out, "Are you f--king kidding me!"
Immediately realizing her gaffe, she quickly covered her mouth, clearly embarrassed by both stumbling and swearing in front of the audience and viewers at home.
When Sarah Hyland reached Astin and her mic, she tried to regain her composure.
"I do that sometimes, guys. I'm awkward," she said.
#8. Justin Beiber
See that guy face planted on the ground? That is Justin Bieber after he walked into a door. It may be funnier if you find out that this seemed to be a common occurrence for this star.
#9. Kate Middleton
Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were attending a St Patrick's Day parade. Kate was meeting soldiers when her heel became caught in a drain. William gave his pregnant wife a helping hand as she forced her shoe free.
The duchess certainly didn't let the matter embarrass her. In fact, she later chatted happily about impending motherhood and revealed she would like a boy while William was rather keen on having a girl.
Contrary to speculation about a future daughter, however, she insisted they did not yet know the sex.
#10. Winona Ryder
Actress Winona Ryder had been found guilty of shoplifting more than $5,500 (£3,800) of designer goods.
Ryder visited the store, where she was a regular customer, on 12 December 2001 and embarked on a marathon tour of the shop.
While looking around, she attracted the attention of the store's security manager, Kenneth Evans, who was watching video screens and became suspicious of the figure carrying a number of shopping bags.
#11. Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga is holding this baby, who looks like she wants to be anywhere but there. Lady Gaga seems like she would be a really cool person but this baby just does not want anything to do with her. Babies are fickle beings.
#12. Lindsay Lohan
Lindsay Lohan had an embarrassing moment when she fell down in Italy. Lohan was attending the Ischia Film Festival in a sparkling silver gown when the unfortunate incident occurred. Walking through the ballroom in metallic stilettos, she appeared to trip and found herself down on all fours. She was quickly helped back to her feet by a security guard.
#13. Kanye West
Kanye West is literally putting himself on the line for his baby momma Kim Kardashian. On May 10, his selflessness ended up in an injury when he accidentally slammed his noggin into a road sign while walking into a restaurant with Kim. The violent mistake was the last straw for Kanye, who ended up aggressively berating all of the paparazzi on the scene.
#14. Vanessa Hudgens
We've all wished we were celebrities at one point or another, but this is one of those times we're glad we aren't.
Vanessa Hudgens was seen with boyfriend Austin Butler at a sushi bar, and she did her best to shield her face from the paparazzi. She must've thought she'd be safe as soon as she turned her back, but unfortunately, the tag Vanessa forgot to remove from her jeans gave the paps all the more reason to take pictures of her!
Wardrobe malfunction aside, Vanessa did look amazing from the other "tagless" angles in the simple yet sexy gray tee + flare jeans outfit she wore that day.
#15. Harry Styles
During a concert in Glasgow, Scotland, Harry Styles and One Direction bandmates bantered with fans during a break. Suddenly a wild shoe appeared! The shoe was then picked up by the 19 year old singer.
A second piece of footwear followed shortly after it's brother and it landed in a much more sensitive area. Styles went down hard, doubled over from the hit as audience members and his bandmates giggled.
After the display of maturity, he got back up and went on to the next part of the performance. The question remains though: Who goes to a concert for someone they don't like just to throw a shoe at them?
