Jay-Z appeared to warn Beyoncé about wardrobe malfunction at Grammys 2025: ‘Absolute sabotage'
But she still runs the world.
Beyoncé had a flawless night at the 2025 Grammy Awards — for the most part.
Following Sunday's show, viewers noticed that Bey, 43, actually suffered a wardrobe malfunction onstage as she was accepting the award for Best Country Album.
During her speech, what appeared to be the white underwire of Beyoncé's Schiaparelli gown was visibly poking into her chest.
TikToker Chauntee Ross drew attention to the mishap with a video that has over 1.8 million views as of Tuesday morning.
'Who dressed her? Her bra wire is popping out,' someone screamed in the video. 'Who did this? Who did this to her? That was sabotage. Absolute sabotage.'
'We all know what that bra wire stab feel like,' another person said with a laugh.
The caption of Ross' video read, 'Whoever let this happen must be fired immediately! Congrats tho to my queen!'
Meanwhile on X (formerly Twitter), fans realized that Jay-Z appeared to tell his wife that her underwire was showing.
Jay-Z, 55, hugged Bey — who was stunned over her win — and whispered something in her ear. Bey then adjusted the top of her dress before she hugged daughter Blue Ivy, 13, and walked to the stage.
'JAY-Z telling his wife Beyoncé that the underwire of her bra was showing before she went on stage,' read the viral tweet with over 4 million views.
'He is looking out for her and wants her to look her best,' one fan tweeted about the moment between the couple.
'That's real love,' another person wrote.
Later in the show, the 'Cowboy Carter' crooner won her first Album of the Year Grammy — but this time her underwire wasn't visible for the audience and people watching at home.
'It's been many, many years,' Beyoncé said in her Album of the Year speech, with her oldest daughter by her side.
'I just feel very full and very honored,' she added.
Bey did not expect to win the Grammy for Best Country Album after being snubbed out of any nominations by the CMA Awards last year.
Her shocked reaction — including the moment that Blue Ivy reminded her mom to get up from her seat and go toward the stage — went viral on social media.
Taylor Swift honored the 'Texas Hold 'Em' singer with the coveted award, making her the first black woman to ever win in the category.
She beat out Post Malone's 'F-1 Trillion,' Kacey Musgraves' 'Deeper Well,' Chris Stapleton's 'Higher' and Lainey Wilson's 'Whirlwind.'
'Wow, I really was not expecting this,' she said in her speech. 'Wow. I want to thank God. Oh my God! That I'm able to still do what I love after so many years. Oh my God.'
