Jenna Fischer went on Jimmy Kimmel’s show wearing an actual bath towel

“My dress broke!”

We’ve all suffered through that last-minute panic when our planned outfit doesn’t quite work out.

Yes, whether it’s an unfortunate stain or a sudden rip, our perfectly laid outfit plans are scuppered and it’s back to the drawing board.

However, we didn’t think celebrities with their team of stylists and helping hands would go through the same thing.

Well, that’s exactly what happened actress Jenna Fischer right before she was due to appear on Jimmy Kimmel this weekend.

Yes, the former star of The Office walked out to a shocked looking Kimmel wearing a bath towel and a pair of jeans and the planned interview was put on pause to allow Jenna to explain her outfit choice.

“I waited a little too long to get dressed,” Jenna told the host. “And then my zipper broke.

“And, I panicked.”

The star of the new show Splitting Up Together explained that the zipper on her chosen outfit broke just moments before taking to the stage but admitted that “the show must go on”.


Jenna looked incredibly comfortable as she lounged in the towel and jeans combo, and she told the audience just that.

“I’ve never been more comfortable. I am mentally a little freaking out that I’m on a talk show in a towel, but I’m physically very comfortable.”

We’d chance rocking this look on our next night out if we looked this good.
