Oops! I did it again...

It's not just us regular folks who end up saying something embarrassing. Famous, powerful and talented people around the world Frequently end their feet in their mouth too;and of course, their gaffes are often remembered and talked about for years.
The next time you see a celebrity's silly mistake or statements splashed all over the internet, thank your lucky stars that no one is around to record your "talk before you think " moments. Here are a few famous folks and their not-so-proud moments.



Pop star Britney Spears obviously didn't pay attention during geography. She once famously asked,"Where is Australia anyway?"



Singer/actress Jessica Simpson finds her food a tad mystifying: "Is this chicken,(what I'm having), or is this fish? I know it's tuna, but it says "Chicken of the Sea".



Heartthrob singer Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers was left blushing when an over-excited fan threw a bra at him during a concert. Confused, he actually picked it up before throwing it on the ground again for one of the security people to collect.



Songstress Kelly Clarkson proved that even celebs get starstruck; when she met her idol Mariah Carey, Clarkson blurted out, "I think I'm gonna puke!"



Actress Drew Barrymore probably didn't realize that this sounded a little creepy: "If I die before my cat, I want a little of my ashes put in his food so i can live inside him."



Former US president George W. Bush confused everyone (including himself) with this cryptic statement: "I want to be a war president. No president wants to be a war president."



R&B diva Beyonce Knowles learnt the hard way that high heels and staircases don't always mix when her stylish walk onstage during a concert in Orlando, the United States, was disrupted by her tripping and falling headlong down the stairs. Within minutes, the video was all over the internet.



The King of Rock & Roll, Elvis Presley, didn't win many fans when he said," I don't know anything about music. In my line you don't have to."
