From The News to Pranks

CBS Television

While this might be one of the world’s favorite talk show bloopers, it was actually an April Fools Day prank. That’s right! When famed new anchor Katie Couric appeared on The Late Late Show with James Corden, she seemed to take a brutal fall down the staircase. The fantastic host he is, Corden immediately ran to her aid! However, he soon discovered the truth…

As it turns out, Couric had planned it all beforehand! She even received some lessons from a stuntwoman to pull off the fall convincingly. That’s dedication! Of course, Corden felt incredibly worried until he found out the truth! “I was like, ‘Oh my God. Katie Couric just died,'” a relieved Corden later said.

Heidi Klum’s Yodeling Accident

NBCUniversal Television

For those that don’t remember, world-famous supermodel Heidi Klum first wore Victoria’s Secret’s “Fantasy Bra” back in 2001. Then, two years later, she appeared on the The Tonight Show with Jay Leno to debut a new version of the underwear. While there, she decided to also demonstrate her yodeling ability. Apparently, the bra was not a fan, as it immediately snapped! Believe it or not, that’s not even the most incredible part of this talk show blooper!

Fellow guest Martin Short and Leo both held their jackets over Klum as she changed. Incredibly, Klum managed to tell a story about swimming with sharks – all while putting on some new clothes! Without a doubt, she’s one of the best supermodels ever.

Zippers: A Woman’s Worst Friend

E! Channel

Everything started fine when singer and actress Jennifer Hudson walked on to Chelsea Handler’s now-defunct talk show, Chelsea Lately, back in 2013. Then Hudson sat down. As she took a seat, the singer’s skirt’s zipper seemed to explode. It all came undone in an instant, with nearly the entire skirt breaking open!

“Oh my G*d!” Handler screamed as Hudson tried to cover up from the audience. Helpless, the singer told Handler to “Zip [her] back up!” The two stars spent nearly 30 seconds, all on-air, trying to zip the skirt back up. All the while, Hudson kept begging, “Don’t break the zipper!” Thankfully, the two figured it out together, and the interview went on as planned. That’s undoubtedly a wardrobe lesson neither will ever forget!
