A video capturing an epic wedding entrance, made even better by the ultimate wardrobe malfunction, has gone viral after amassing millions of views.
Australian bridesmaid Georgie Ball, 28, was making her entrance to the reception of her best friend Ellie’s wedding in Mudgee when she accidentally exposed herself while performing her party trick, the worm.
The footage shows the physiotherapist from Newcastle performing a coordinated dance routine with her groomsman partner, who also happens to be her own brother, when suddenly the entire back seam of her floor-length dress splits open.
Within seconds, her entire buttocks are exposed, and as she goes to stand up and presumably attempt to cover herself, the heel of her shoe also snaps and flies off her feet.
Ball, who handled the situation as humorously and elegantly as possible, admitted that she is not someone to shy away from the spotlight and decided to stick to the rehearsed routine.
The malfunction was not a planned part of the well-rehearsed routine, and actually began much earlier in the day. According to Ball, the dress was predisposed to disaster hours before the reception entrance.
Ball told news.com.au that she felt the seam rip when she was practising the routine before the entrance, but her fellow bridesmaids assured her it was only a small tear and “no different to the other girls”.
Explaining how she adapted the routine as a precaution, Ball said: “I told my brother I couldn’t do the cartwheel because it would break the dress, but I’d do the worm instead.”
However, the cartwheel might have been more tactical than the backwards worm she lands as the beat drops because the move exposed her bare bottom to the entire crowd, the front row of which were mainly older family members.
Despite the crowd erupting into laughter and the video subsequently going viral, Ball has taken the memorable moment in her stride and revelled in the many comments praising her physique.
She said: “I’ve been working out for eight or nine years flat chat, so I’ll cop the compliments about my bum.
“It’s one of my greatest assets, second to my big, beautiful brain.”
Ball also added that while she finds the footage hilarious, commenters who claimed they could see more than just her butt were incorrect, as she was wearing underwear, it was just a nude-coloured G-string.
She joked: “There were no vagina flashing, just cheeks.
“I’m a physio, I see a lot of bodies, so I don’t really mind – everyone is the same,” she added.
Planning her next bridesmaid gig, at her brother’s wedding in October, Ball said she’s plotting something even bigger.
“I might do a front flip … but I probably won’t have a back seam on that dress,” she said, thinking tactically.
