Khloé Kardashian says she was sewn into her People's Choice Awards outfit after a zipper malfunction and had to 'cut the stitching back out' to use the bathroom

• Khloé Kardashian had a wardrobe malfunction at the People's Choice Awards on Tuesday.
• The reality star said on Instagram her backless suit's zipper broke and she had to be sewn in. 
• Kardashian said that when she had to use the bathroom, the stitching had to be cut. 

Khloé Kardashian revealed that she had to be sewn into her People's Choice Awards outfit after a zipper malfunction — and that she had to take those stitches out in order to use the bathroom. 

Kardashian posted a video about the issue to her Instagram story on Tuesday night following the fan-voted awards ceremony, where her family's show "The Kardashians" was named the reality show of 2022. Kardashian herself was also named the reality TV star of 2022. 

In her dimly lit video that appears to have been filmed in a car with her mother Kris Jenner and best friend Malika Haqq in the back seat, Kardashian explained the wardrobe mishaps that plagued her that night while wearing a sleeveless, backless suit.

"You guys, we just won People's Choice, and I'm so grateful, but, okay," Kardashian said. "My outfit broke. I'm zipped — no, hold on. My outfit, the whole zipper popped open, so I am sewn into my outfit. I had to pee, so we had to cut the stitching out and sew me back in."

She also posted behind-the-scenes shots of herself in the outfit on Instagram.

During the awards show, Kardashian arrived on stage late to accept the reality show award for "The Kardashians" alongside her mother, Kris Jenner. When she made it to the microphone, she apologized for being "out of breath" and said that she was attempting to fix her hair, People reported.

"It is a disaster, but that's okay, champagne problems," Kardashian said in the Instagram video of her hair and wardrobe issues. "I'm so fucking happy that I won People's Choice for the fifth year in a row and that Kardashians won as well. And I'm so sorry that I was late to the stage."
