10 Times Celebs Got Themselves Into Sticky Situations But Ended Up Going Viral

Everyone has had an awkward moment that they would rather forget. Celebrities are no different. Even if celebrities appear to have it all together, things can go wrong at the worst possible time.
Fortunately for most of us, awkward situations rarely last long because most of them probably didn't happen with flashing cameras in our faces. Celebrities, however, cannot be compared in the same way. In fact, no matter how hard some celebrities try to change it, that one awkward moment completely stays forever and affects them a lot.
However, there are still times when celebrities find themselves in awkward situations, such as a clothing malfunction on the red carpet or a social media gaffe, and even though these occurrences are unexpected, some are adept at handling them and not allowing them to disrupt their peace. They can remain calm in the most challenging situations and focus their attention on their work rather than the problem, making it appear simple.
