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!
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.
Michael Cera Out Does Himself
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.
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.
John Travolta's Cringy Attempt at a Kiss
The times when John Travolta played the smooth-talking Danny Zuko on 'Grease' are certainly long gone. In the 2015 Oscars, Travolta made a bit of a fool of himself when he tried to kiss Scarlett Johansson on the cheek, or maybe it was the neck?! Anyway, the New Jersey-born Hollywood celebrity leaned in in a very awkward manner, grabbing Johansson by the stomach and standing almost entirely behind her.
We know she's absolutely gorgeous, John, but you still can't grab a lady's waist like that without asking! Even if they were very close friends, this is still a very cringe-worthy photo, especially after seeing the blank expression on Johansson's face. Maybe she wasn't surprised and knew this was happening; maybe she chose not to react. Or maybe, this was just a very badly-timed photo.
