Chrissy Teigen Experiences Wardrobe Malfunction, John Legend Assists At 2026 AMAs
John Legend assists Chrissy Teigen during minor red carpet wardrobe mishap.
Singer-songwriter John Legend stepped in to help his wife Chrissy Teigen after she experienced a minor wardrobe malfunction on the red carpet at the 2026 American Music Awards in Las Vegas on Monday. The couple, known for their playful public appearances, were posing for photographers when the incident occurred, briefly interrupting Chrissy’s red-carpet moment. The situation, however, was quickly resolved with help from John, allowing the couple to continue their appearance without further disruption.
Chrissy arrived at the event wearing a floor-length beaded orange gown paired with heels, a look that drew attention for its bold design. While posing for photographs, her heel reportedly got caught in the hem of her dress, causing her to pause unexpectedly. As she struggled to free herself, a bystander initially moved to assist, but John quickly stepped in and knelt down to untangle the fabric. Although a few beads from the intricate gown fell onto the red carpet during the moment, Chrissy handled the incident with humour and continued posing for photographers shortly after.
The couple’s appearance at the event was part of a larger evening for John, who was present in a professional capacity as a presenter at the awards show. He opted for a formal yet understated look, wearing a tan trench coat over a white shirt and matching trousers. Chrissy, meanwhile, showcased a new hairstyle featuring a bob cut with bangs, drawing additional attention on the red carpet. The pair’s coordinated yet distinct fashion choices were widely noted by attendees and media covering the event.

Beyond the red carpet moment, Chrissy and John also shared glimpses of their light-hearted relationship during their time in Las Vegas. In social media posts, Chrissy joked about wanting to visit entertainment shows in the city, including “Magic Mike Live,” adding a playful tone to their trip. The couple, who married in 2013, are known for frequently engaging in humorous exchanges both publicly and on social media, often highlighting their close bond and family life.
The incident comes as John continues to remain active in both music and entertainment management developments. Earlier this year, he parted ways with his long-time management team before signing with Roc Nation, a major music and talent agency representing several global artists. Despite industry changes, John remains one of the most recognisable figures in contemporary R&B, with a career spanning two decades and major hits such as “All of Me” contributing to his global popularity.
