Heidi Klum awkwardly attempted to pants Benson Boone on the 2025 American Music Awards red carpet Monday night.
The “Beautiful Things” singer was posing for photographers at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas when Klum was seen creeping up to Boone before grabbing at his green slacks.
At first, Boone looked startled and confused when he noticed a pair of hands pulling at his breeches.
When he realized the culprit was none other than the supermodel, Boone laughed off the jest before returning his attention to the shutterbugs.
The “America’s Got Talent” judge, 51, giggled as she tried to run away but suffered a gaffe when she tripped over the long ruffled train of her black gown.
Fortunately, there was a man on the carpet who assisted her in finding her balance as she staggered in her sky-high boots.
Fans were quick to notice that Klum’s trouser tease was a callback to when she and Nikki Glaser ripped off Boone’s clothes during his performance at the 2025 Grammys in February.
At the time, Boone was singing from the audience when he walked past a table where Klum and the comedian were perched. Both blonds stood up to yank at his outfit, with Klum memorably failing to rip his jacket off the first time and going in for a second time to successfully tear off his sleeve.
Viewers of Monday night’s telecast were thrilled to see that Boone, 22, included Klum and Glaser yet again while he took to the stage for another performance.
The pop star was singing his new single “Mystical Magical” before doing one of his famous backflips off the stage. He then strutted up to the front row of the audience, where Klum and Glaser stood up and approached him.
From there, he jokingly rejected them, shaking his head and placing his finger on Klum’s lips.
Both ladies frowned with disappointment and sat back down in their seats.
“Benson Boone keeping the Nicki Glaser/Heidi Klum joke going 😂😂,” one person wrote on X.
“WHY ARE NIKKI GLASER AND HEIDI KLUM ALWAYS PART OF BENSONS PERFORMANCE IM CRYING,” a second person said.
“Heidi Klum, Benson Boone, Nikki Glazer [sic] LFG can I go 4 for 4????” a third social media user said.
Boone did not take home any awards on Monday, though he was nominated in five categories, including new artist of the year and favorite male pop artist. His 2024 song, “Beautiful Things,” was also up for song of the year, favorite pop song and favorite music video.
