Oops! Miss Nebraska accidentally flashed her underwear during Sunday's live broadcast of the Miss America pageant on ABC.

Although it was Miss New York Kira Kazantsev who nabbed the crown, Miss Nebraska Megan Swanson stole the spotlight after observant viewers captured her wardrobe malfunction at the beginning of the evening wear segment.

As Swanson leaned over her chair with uncrossed legs to talk to a fellow contestant, the cameras zoomed in on her to reveal her pink underwear on live TV.
