It is not at all surprising to learn that Michael Cera is as awkward and hilarious in real life as he is on the screen. The ‘Superbad’ star certainly proved this at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, when he fell to the ground in a very funny, slow-motion way.
After somehow tripping over his own feet, Cera was simply posing for a photo when he started tumbling toward the carpet. What made this scene all the more hilarious was that fellow actress Catalina Sandino, who was close by, tried to catch the awkward actor and prevent the embarrassment. But it was too late.
Naomi Watts Misses a Step
At the 2015 Screen Actors Guild Awards, the phenomenally talented cast of Alejandro G. Iñarritu's 'Birdman' won the award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture. Among the cast were Emma Stone, Amy Ryan, Edward Norton, Naomi Watts, and Zach Galifianakis. The actors got onstage, and everything was going fine, that is until Naomi approached the microphone.
When the blonde actress walked towards the mic, she clearly missed a step and almost fell flat on her face. Luckily, she managed to keep her balance and avoid disaster, but her co-stars' reaction was priceless and caught on camera.
Sacha Baron Cohen Being a Troublemaker
Sacha Baron Cohen is famous for stirring up trouble with his provocative humor, and obviously, this is especially true when it comes to red-carpet events. For the 2012 Oscars, Cohen decided to go as a middle eastern leader, more specifically, as his character in his movie The Dictator. As if that weren’t enough, he was carrying around an urn with what he said were the ashes of North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il.
Cohen scattered the ashes all over the red carpet and accidentally got some on host Ryan Seacrest’s expensive suit. Seacrest was not happy, to say the least, and to make matters worse, Cohen later interrupted one of his interviews with Lady Gaga asking for a hug and redemption. Seacrest was extremely uncomfortable, and Cohen, as always, was extremely amused.
Karolina Kurkova’s Dress Almost Choked Her
The beautiful Victoria's Secret Angel model, Karolina Kurkova, had a close brush with disaster at the New York City Ballet Gala in 2012. Kurkova was wearing a stunning red dress with a long, flowy cape, which almost choked her to the ground!
Apparently, a fellow guest accidentally stepped on the edge of Kurkova's cape, and before she could realize it, she just kept walking in the other direction. This almost pulled her back to the ground, but fortunately, the choke was enough to get her attention and make her realize what was going on before the disaster happened!
Woody Allen's Inappropriate Looks
It's no secret that Scarlett Johansson is one of the most beautiful women in the world, especially when she appeared in 'Vicky Cristina Barcelona' in 2008. In a premiere for the movie, director Woody Allen couldn't resist Johansson's stunning looks and was caught on camera looking at the actress in a rather compromising way. Allen was gazing downward, and unfortunately, even if it was just a second, the cameras never lie.
Allen should be especially aware of the number of photographers present at these premieres and try to be a little more discrete next time. Even though Johansson and Allen are supposedly good friends, and the actress has come to his defense when it comes to scandals involving the director, he still shouldn't have been staring that way.
