Most Embarrassing Moments In TV History

Rihanna

In December 2012, Rihanna performed her hit single "Diamonds" on the German variety show Wetten, dass.

Rihanna appeared on stage in a white jumpsuit with cutouts at the waist, paired with a diamond choker necklace and sparkling earrings. As she belted out the song, the stage was filled with smoke and dazzling lights, creating a dramatic and memorable performance.

Madonna

On her first appearance on "The Tonight Show" with Johnny Carson in 1987, Madonna was at the peak of her career and her performance was highly anticipated.

The interview ended on a sour note, with Carson telling Madonna, "You're a nice lady," and Madonna replying, "And you're not so bad yourself." The moment became one of the most cringe-worthy and iconic in late-night talk show history.
