Chrissy Teigen narrowly missed a wardrobe malfunction while attending the 2026 American Music Awards on Monday, May 25.
Teigen, 40, was accompanied by her husband as she walked the red carpet in a bright orange gown on Monday. When she stopped to take pictures, the heel of Teigen’s shoe got caught in her beaded dress.
Legend, 47, quickly jumped into action, trying to cut off his wife’s foot from her dress. At one point, another woman stepped in to help. They finally found Teigen’s heel, but not before a few beads fell off the dress. They were seen on the carpet as Teigen and Legend continued to take pictures.
Despite the tragedy, both Teigen and Legend were all smiles as the night went on.
Teigen attended Monday’s awards ceremony with her husband, who took the stage to give a speech Carol G with the International Artist Award of Excellence.
“What a pleasure to be back here at the American Music Awards to present this very special award, the International Artist of Excellence Award,” Legend told the crowd. “This is a rare and high honor that has reached the most famous celebrities of our time.
The legend told the crowd he thinks “the world” of Karol, 35.
“There are artists who make hits and then there are artists who make history. Just last month, he was the first Latino artist in history to ever be at Coachella,” he continued. “This summer, he introduced the program Viajando Por El Mundo Tropitourselling two million tickets in four days and expanding from 39 to 63 arena shows worldwide. That’s not just a fan base, that’s a movement.”

You allow me to live a wonderful, wonderful experience in my life. I want to say that more than anything else, this job has given me the most important thing in my life: purpose.
Karol continued, “I found a purpose through my music. I’m happy that I can sing, and I can say things in my songs that can be a voice for many people. It’s a healing place, a safe place, and I just think that my life has a purpose because of my music and helping others with it.”
