Katy Perry suffered a wardrobe malfunction while filming an episode of American Idol.
The Firework singer and reality show judge was wearing a dramatic silver structured metal top by fashion designer Kate Barton for the filming of the programme.
The dramatic metal plate top came loose while one of the reality show's contestants was performing onstage.
Perry's fellow judge, Luke Bryan, jokingly rushed to her aid with a pair of pliers, saying "I'm going in!" as members of show staff gathered round to help fix the mishap.
In a clip she shared on social media, Perry said: "I need my top to stay on. If it’s not fixed this show is going to get more than it wanted."
Fellow judge Lionel Richie said: "Ratings! Here we come, ratings!"
Later in the show, the top broke for a second time and she had to conceal her modesty with a cushion.
Earlier this year Perry announced that the current season of American Idol will be her last.
She has been a judge on the US show for seven seasons, after joining in series 16.
Announcing her departure on chat show Jimmy Kimmel Live in February, she said: "I love Idol so much, it’s connected me with the heart of America but I feel like I need to go out and feel that pulse to my own beat."
Perry is married to the actor Orlando Bloom and the couple share a daughter, Daisy Dove.
