AMA viewers are left baffled as Heidi Klum tries to pull Benson Boone's trousers down on the red carpet before tripping over her own dress
Heidi Klum left viewers baffled as she tugged on Benson Boone's trousers while at the American Music Awards in Las Vegas on Monday.
The supermodel, 51, and the singer, 22, bumped into each other on the red carpet and Heidi then playfully pulled at Benson's trousers as he laughed.
Heidi then suffered her own wardrobe mishap as she tripped over the train of her dress while turning away from Benson.
The star, who attended the event with her son Henry Samuel, 19, hopped over her train as a man on the red carpet helped move the train from her.
Some viewers were left confused as to why Heidi tried to pull Benson's trousers.
From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop.
They wrote: 'Heidi Klum tripping over her own dress while running away from Benson Boone, this is pop culture.'
'But why did she try to pull off his pants?'
Heidi's playful jibe at Benson is likely a reference to his performance at this year's Grammy Awards.
Benson began his performance in a black suit but, while walking through the audience, Heidi and comedian Nikki Glaser joined in by ripping off his suit to reveal a light blue jumpsuit.
This year's AMAs were branded a 'hot mess' and the 'worst show ever' after most major stars snubbed this year's ceremony.
Disappointed fans took to social media to complain about the lack of big names at the annual show, which was held at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas on Monday.
Nominees including Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Billie Eilish and Sabrina Carpenter were all absent from the event, and the guest list instead featured a slew of social media influencers.
The event was hosted by Jennifer Lopez, 55, who did her best to single-handedly bring the star power by performing a six-minute medley of 23 hits by the evening's nominees.
But the 55-year-old instead sparked criticism over a cringe-worthy make-out session with male and female dancers, with viewers calling the display 'desperate.'
Meanwhile singer Kehlani, 30, made waves with controversial remarks on the Israel-Palestine conflict, stating 'free Palestine' during a red carpet interview.
And Swift, 35, in particular also caused a melt down among her fans when she snubbed the show, despite being nominated in six categories.
After the AMA's concluded, furious fans took online to blast the show as a 'flop.'
Many also complained that not all categories were shown during the broadcast.
'AMAs were a FLOP. No a-list celebs, no tay wins, and it felt soooooo conservative and weird this year..... never watching that s*** again lol.'
'I'm sorry what??? That was a hot mess.'
'What in the world did I just watch? They didn't even announce some of the biggest awards! Hot mess.'
'American music awards but like…. Where were the musicians? All I saw were influencers and twitch streamers?' one fan wrote.
'American Music Awards? More like FLOP.'
'That was the worst absolute worst,' someone else chimed in.
'So yall decided not to announce on live tv the category that most than likely received the most votes of the entire night and the category that gave yall the most ratings?? See this is why I don't watch award shows anymore!'
'WHERE IS THE REST OF THE CATEGORIES???'
'you didn't give out awards to 95% of the nominated categories.'
'guys that sucked why so many performances and no awards??'
'Ummmmm so do you know you're an awards show and meant to give out awards? We are confused.'
Janet Jackson received the Icon Award during the festivities, while Rod Stewart was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award.
A number of stars presented the big wins, including comedians Nikki Glaser and Tiffany Haddish, actor Wayne Brady, model Cara Delevingne, pop star Ciara, streamer Kai Cenat, and singers Megan Moroney and Shaboozey.
This year marks the first time the awards show was shown on CBS, after being aired on ABC since 1974.

Scranton couple inspired by The Office suggest Slough house swap
What do the American city of Scranton and the Berkshire town Slough have in common?For many TV fans, it's the UK and US versions of The Office, starring Ricky Gervais and Steve Carell as comical managers David Brent and Michael Scott respectively. More than 20 years since the UK version first aired, both shows continue to be binge-watched by fans across the one couple from Scranton, Philadelphia, is looking for people from Slough to do a house swap so they can compare the two. Andrew Maine and his wife Jennifer have lived in Scranton together for almost three years and think the town wasn't shown in the most flattering of lights. "If you mention Scranton to an outsider, the show is usually the first thing that comes to mind," Mr Maine told BBC Radio Berkshire. "Most people around here feel the show didn't do a good job of representing our area," Mr Maine explained."A lot of locals take offence the showrunners picked the area because it is economically depressed, boring and doesn't have much going for it."With websites dedicated to tours of Scranton for the show's fans, the couple feel the show has had an impact on how people see the city, which is near New York. Mr Maine continued: "There's so much to offer here, but we really feel like it's under-utilised."Hundreds of fans of The Office still make pilgrimages to Scranton every year. "The local government and businesses lean into this to a degree - there are several murals, a few exhibits, a walking tour and some merchandise." 'Unique link' "I love the show and it got me thinking, what impact has The Office had on Slough - is it the same as here?" Mr Maine is where the idea to do a cultural exchange came from and the couple is now looking to do a house swap or host some Slough Maine continued: "We could show them our area and then we could do the same thing over there."We thought it would be equal parts humorous and interesting. Sure, other cities have connections on a global scale, but ours, linked by a television show, is truly unique." You can follow BBC Berkshire on Facebook, X (Twitter), or Instagram.

The 52-year-old Affleck and 54-year-old Damon were spotted at Steak 48 in Beverly Hills alongside Damon's 48-year-old wife, who he tied the knot with in 2005. They were spotted at the restaurant hours after they appeared at Netflix 's Tudum event at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, where Ben roasted Matt for his grey beard.

His childhood friend Matt opted for a white button-down short-sleeved shirt, grey pants and white sneakers for his outing. Damon grew out the grey beard to portray Odysseus in director Christopher Nolan's highly-anticipated adaptation of Homer's The Odyssey. Filming started in late February on the film, which also stars, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson and Charlize Theron, though it's unclear if filming has yet to wrap. When they took the stage, Affleck joked, 'I trusted Matt would shave the beard before Tudum. And here we are.' They introduced co-stars Teyana Taylor, Steven Yeun, and Catalina Sandino Moreno. Affleck and Damon portray Miami cops whose team's trust begins to fray upon discovering millions in cash in a derelict stash house in Joe Carnahan's crime drama premiering January 16 on Netflix. 'The Rip came out of a deeply personal experience that my friend went through, both as a father and as head of tactical narcotics for the Miami Dade police department,' Carnahan told Tudum last Saturday. 'It's inspired in part by his life and then, by my enduring love for those classic seventies cop thrillers that really valued the character and interpersonal relationships and became touchstones of that era — films like Serpico and Prince of the City and more recently, Michael Mann's Heat.' Sasha Calle, Néstor Carbonell, Lina Esco, Scott Adkins, and Kyle Chandler will also appear in The Rip. The Boston besties co-produced Bill Condon's $30M-budget remake of West End musical Kiss of the Spider Woman, starring Ben's second ex-wife Jennifer Lopez, which hits US theaters October 10. Matt is currently on break from filming Universal Pictures $250M-budget 'mythic action epic' already scheduled to hit theaters on July 17, 2026. The Odyssey marks Damon's third time being directed by Nolan after his 2023 atomic bomb biopic Oppenheimer, and his 2014 sci-fi epic Interstellar. Principal photography officially began February 25 on the IMAX flick, and filming is also expected to take place in Italy, Greece, Morocco, Scotland, Ireland, and the United Kingdom.
