The country music star was headlining the Faster Horses Festival in Brooklyn, Mich., on Saturday, July 20, when the incident occurred. The three-day event kicked off one night earlier, with Jelly Roll ending Friday night’s festivities with a performance on the main stage.

The “Watermelon Moonshine” singer sang on the same stage when she suddenly needed to step out of view of festival attendees, according to Whiskey Riff. As Wilson, 32, later explained to the fans who had gathered to see her perform, her brief detour from the front of the stage was necessary because her pants had unexpectedly ripped.

Those in the audience “just about got a real show. A real show,” the Grammy Award winner reiterated with a laugh in fan-captured video footage later shared online by TikToker @wanderwithjenna.

“There’s a first time for everything, and I’m glad it was y’all that I split my pants wide open in front of,” she said, adding, “You can’t make that up.”

The “Heart Like a Truck” singer then admitted she might not have realized the problem with her wardrobe if members of her team who were watching her performance just offstage hadn’t noticed and flagged her down.

Wilson thankfully got the message and was able to change into a replacement pair of pants before giving fans a show they hadn’t been expecting. Even so, she admitted the wardrobe change mid-show was no easy feat.

“I’ll tell you what, try and put on some jeans when you’re sweating—it ain’t fun,” the “Wildflowers and Wild Horses” singer shared. “You gotta jump in them things.”
