Benson Boone’s Red Carpet Revelation: Tight Pants and Six Nominations at iHeartRadio Awards
Let’s unravel this sartorial saga, shall we? At the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards, Benson Boone strutted his stuff in a delicate lace shirt and high-waisted white pants that, quite frankly, seem to have been inspired by the concept of discomfort. The “Beautiful Things” artist, who’s facing a fashion crisis of epic proportions with his snug trousers, cheekily admitted during a red carpet interview, “Pants are a little tight,” after indulging in a hearty breakfast. It’s a classic musician tale: shine on the stage while simultaneously battling the constraints of high fashion.
Boone’s ensemble didn’t just garner attention for its aesthetic; it was the backdrop to a night of accolades. With six nominations under his belt, including best new pop artist and song of the year for “Beautiful Things,” it’s evident that his talent is as big as his fashion risks. He humorously remarked, “I thought I was only here for one,” showcasing his easy charm, even if his pants weren’t as cooperative.
This isn’t the first time Boone’s pants have been a talking point. Following his performance at the Grammys, where he had an NSFW wardrobe malfunction moment that went viral, the stakes were high for his iHeartRadio appearances. He reflected on the unique experience of being stripped down by Heidi Klum and Nikki Glaser at the Grammys, turning what could have been a wardrobe catastrophe into a memorable moment. “It was a cool moment. It was fun to do,” he said, demonstrating his knack for turning the awkward into the entertaining.
Despite his self-deprecating humor about his fashion choice, Boone has proven he can command both the stage and the red carpet. His notable backflips have also earned him a nod for favorite tour tradition, showing he’s not just a pretty face in tight pants. The awards aired live, providing a platform for him to showcase not only his artistic talents but also his unique style, even if it’s a bit restrictive.
In a world where tight pants seem to come with the territory, perhaps it’s time we accept that discomfort is just part of the glamorous game.
