Kelly Ripa Helps Nikki Glaser Through On-Air Wardrobe Malfunction

by

Nikki Glaser knows how to laugh off a mini wardrobe malfunction.

On April 22nd, the 41-year-old appeared on Live With Kelly and Mark wearing a short, powder blue dress made of crepe fabric and decorated with flowers. Kelly Ripa, her co-host, loved the fashionable outfit, but playfully pointed out that the very short length was particularly noticeable when the guest sat down.

“Oh my God, so chic. Very chic. I love this,” Kelly gushed. “Oh wait, you can see your underpants.”

Ever the comedian, the Good Girl star joked, “It’s just for you.” 

Nikki, wearing tall white boots, crossed her legs and quickly apologized for the momentary flash.

“That’s great,” Kelly said with a smile. Nikki replied playfully, “Perfect, I’ll text you a photo later.”

It’s still unclear if the usual host of the Golden Globes sent inappropriate photos to Kelly, but she did share photos of the outfits she wore while making appearances on daytime TV, including a dress by Self-Portrait.

Nikki isn’t alone when it comes to wardrobe mishaps – many celebrities have handled similar situations with grace. For example, Alix Earle skillfully dealt with a loose strand of beads on her vintage Bob Mackie dress at the 2026 Vanity Fair Oscars after-party, preventing a bigger issue on the red carpet.

Oh my gosh, she told Entertainment Tonight about it! Apparently, her gown started completely falling apart – all the beads were flying off everywhere! She was cracking up saying it was like, ‘Someone, quick, I need a knife!’ and they just, like, cut her out of it a little bit. It’s just so her, honestly!

Nikki has been opening up about more than just embarrassing moments recently. The comedian, who moved back to her hometown of St. Louis during the pandemic, shared that filming her new Hulu stand-up special, Good Girl, meant sharing personal stories with a lot of people she’s known her whole life.

She told Kelly and Mark it was a mix of people she knew – high school friends, classmates from her Pilates class, and even her spray tan technician. She admitted it was a fun event, but jokingly noted that it was a little strange her childhood dentist now knew details about her personal life, though she supposed it was fitting.

For a look at Nikki through the years, keep reading…

Glaser shared a photo from her freshman year, explaining it likely captured a moment when she was secretly listening in on a phone call between her best friend and her boyfriend.

Comedian Nikki Glaser shared a ‘Throwback Thursday’ photo of herself with Amy Schumer, noting they met on MySpace eleven years ago.

Glaser marked Easter by posting a sweet childhood photo, writing that it was likely ‘one of the best mornings of my life.’

Glaser enjoys sharing nostalgic family photos during holidays. She recently posted a picture of herself and her sister, Lauren, from 1992, wishing everyone a Happy 4th of July.

Glaser is known for her excellent Jennifer Aniston impression, but many people think her impression of her sister’s baby is even funnier.

Glaser shared a sweet photo of her niece and nephew with a playful caption: ‘I love making these memories with them, even if they won’t remember a thing!’

All dressed in late 80s, early 90s garb, Glaser captioned this Instagram post, “I was cool once!”

Glaser loves sharing old photos, and recently used one to ask her fans for votes on season 27 of Dancing With the Stars in 2018. She playfully wrote, “Tune in to @dancingabc this Monday to watch her dance on live TV!” adding, “She’s really nervous and needs your kind support.”

She recently shared a photo from her senior prom in 2002, and reminisced about a disappointing night. Her date, who was quite popular at the time, and his friends spent the entire evening avoiding her, which was really upsetting for her.

I just had to share a sweet moment – it’s my mom, Julie’s, birthday! I posted a picture celebrating her and told her how much I love her. It really made me think about all she’s taught me over the years, and I especially thanked her for introducing me to the wonderful world of farm animals! She’s the best.

Even as a young child, Glaser showed a talent for comedy, playfully jumping into a photo of her dad, EJ, while he was sleeping.

What was meant to be a pleasant family outing turned amusing for Glaser, who shared a funny photo with the caption, “Mom, thanks for always being there to comfort me when animals are being mistreated nearby.”

Okay, so everyone says adults are supposed to be independent, but honestly? Even he needed his parents! I mean, during the pandemic, he was living with them, and they actually had to help him put furniture together! It’s just… so relatable, you know? It proves even the coolest people still need their moms and dads sometimes, and I just find that incredibly endearing.

Long before adopting her current pup, Luigi, Glaser grew up with her childhood dog Speedo.

Nikki Glaser, now known for her podcast, has always been fascinated by the medium. She even joked about her childhood interest with an old photo, writing, “I have always loved podcasts.”

Despite saying she wasn’t very good at field hockey, Glaser and her friends were always excellent at playful banter and trash-talking.

Glaser posted another old field hockey photo on Instagram, showing her and her teammates playfully posing like the stars of Charlie’s Angels while still in their sports uniforms.
