Brooks Nader handled her wardrobe malfunction like a pro minutes before hitting the red carpet.
Nader, 28, took to Instagram Stories on Monday, May 11, to share a major fashion faux pas moments before she posed for photos at the 2026 Fox Upfront in New York City. In a mirror selfie, the Baywatch actress showed the back of her dress, which had split open and revealed her lace underwear.
“When you bust out of your dress 4 min before showtime!!!!” Nader captioned the post. “Classssssicc 😅🤣.”
Thankfully, Nader had a seamstress on deck who was able to sew her back into the little red dress and conceal her lingerie. “We’ve got 4 earth angels sewing me back into this sucker,” she wrote over a pic of an assistant going to work on the design.
By the time she hit the star-studded scene, Nader looked flawless. Her dress featured a halter neck and a fitted bodice, as well as an A-line skort. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model teamed her dress, which perfectly matched her iconic Baywatch swimsuit, with ruby heels and diamond earrings.
For glam, Nader stunned with a full beat, including glowy skin, blushed cheeks, filled-in eyebrows, and pink lips. Her brown eyes popped with a touch of eyeliner and long lashes. Nader’s blonde hair was parted down the middle and styled in big, bouncy curls.
On the red carpet, Nader opened up about her part as Selene in Baywatch, telling Extra, “I kinda manifested this role with my Sports Illustrated cover in 2023. I was wearing a red one-piece. I was like, ‘This is so Baywatch!’ And lo and behold, here we are. It’s a pinch me moment, and hopefully we make everyone proud.”
As for her character, Nader laughed about how alike they are. “I feel like she was loosely based on myself sometimes! My sisters were like, ‘That’s pretty fitting that you’re feisty and mean.’ But it’s not too hard to play Selene. She’s a fun character to play.”
She added, “It’s such an honor to pay homage to the original series and to the muses of Baywatch. They’ve been on my mood board for as long as I can remember.”
