On “Firework,” Katy Perry sings, “Baby, you’re a firework / Come on, let your colors burst.” But something else burst while the pop star was filming American Idol: her top.

Perry suffered a wardrobe malfunction during the episode of the competition series (which she’s departing as a judge after this season) that aired on Monday. The New York Post reports that “the incident occurred before Top 14 hopeful Roman Collins took the stage to sing James Brown’s ‘It’s A Man’s Man’s Man’s World.’ According to Perry, the chrome crop top she was wearing appeared to come loose at the back.” The nice thing about the top is that if it breaks again, she can use it as a hood ornament for a car.
