NSFW: Beyonce’s Academy Awards Nip Slip, Or: “Relax, Nerds!”

During the showtunes medley that Hugh "Pee Pants" Jackman and Beyonce performed at Sunday's Oscars ceremony, Jackman dipped the Beez and her breast popped out. KIND OF. JUST BARELY. Normally, this is not a website that covers nipple mistakes, but this is Beyonce, and it was at the Oscars, so it's basically the best of both worlds. (It's basically riding a horse on the beach. Call back!) Besides, we pretend like we have higher aesthetic and ethical standards but in the end this is a blog. Blogz will be blogz. It's like that old business saying: Beyonce's barely-exposed nipple sellz. You know, business stuff.

What's particularly insane about this nipple accident, though, is not that it happened during one of the most widely televised events in the world, but that anyone noticed it at all. I've posted the photo after the jump (although you have my apologies before the jump: I'm sorry). I think you'll see what I mean.

Like, seriously, what? That wouldn't be visible on a 7,000,000 inch HDTV. I'm still not even convinced that it happened. Someone worked very hard to find that. Someone very lonely. They probably whispered "come to daddy" while looking through the photos. "Eureeka, my 12 cats, I have found it!"

(Thanks for the tip, Edith)
