Live TV is great because of how raw everything is. Nothing is pre-recorded and edited, which means if you’re that unlucky guy who happens to slip up, it’ll be aired for everyone at home to watch live of course.
For that unfortunate few there are certain moments captured on live TV that live on until today as some of the most uncomfortable, embarrassing clips we’ve ever seen. Here are some of our guilty favorites!
1: During a 2009 episode of American Idol Ryan Seacrest attempted to give a blind man a high five…
2: When Kanye West went off script during a Hurricane Katrina fund ad and began ranting about George Bush
3: That awkward time Steve Harvey announced the wrong Miss Universe winner during a 2016 pageant.
4: When Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars for making a simple joke at Jada Smith…
5: That awkward moment when Leslie Jones accidentally got a ton of fake blood in her mouth during an SNL sketch and had to hold back barf the whole time.
6: That confusing moment when Sacha Cohen poured ashes on Ryan Seacrest’s suit during the 2012 Oscars.
