The 43rd People’s Choice Awards included a number of memorable events that will live on in our memories for a long time. This year’s event left a lot to be remembered, whether it was Ellen DeGeneres showing a shirtless Chris Hemsworth to the crowd or the cast of The Talk’s acceptance speech being interrupted by an anonymous guy on stage. And, of course, there’s Priyanka Chopra, the desi girl who won an award. However, the one starring Dakota Johnson, a Hollywood actress, remains our favorite.

The Fifty Shades of Grey actress beat out other contenders Blake Lively (Age of Adaline), Jennifer Lopez (The Boy Next Door), Rachel McAdams (Spotlight), and Kate Winslet (Steve Jobs) for Favorite Dramatic Movie Actress at the 2016 People’s Choice Awards on Wednesday.

Leslie Mann, who stars in the film How to Be Single, unbuttoned her crop top by mistake while accepting her prize, and the two embraced in a hug. Fortunately, Mann’s co-star Alison Brie was on hand to assist Johnson.

“Oh, that’s OK,” Mann said, trying to fix it for the star. “You got it.” The trio laughed it off before Johnson announced, “Leslie just broke my dress.” She was able to shrug off the wardrobe malfunction by referring to her Fifty Shades of Grey sex scenes with Jamie Dornan.

When confronted with such a circumstance, one would expect a celebrity to feel ashamed, but Johnson was amusingly cheeky and had none of it.

Johnson laughed, “Well it’s not like nobody here hasn’t already seen my boobs. Thank you so much to the fans, this is really insane I was just excited to even be nominated, you guys have completely rocked my world and changed my life I am so incredibly thankful. Thank you for supporting our movie. Thank you to everyone at Universal, Sam Taylor-Johnson, E.L. James, Jamie Dornan. I couldn’t have done it without you. That’s it. I don’t know. Bye. Thank you!”

The actress spoke to Vogue U.K. earlier this month about her leading part in the sexual thriller, saying she’s “proud” of it and has no regrets.

She stated, “I don’t need to distance myself from [Fifty Shades of Grey]. The more work I do, the more the general public sees the different things I can do. Do I think it opened doors? Yeah. More people know my name.”

Fifty Shades of Grey did not win the award for Favorite Dramatic Movie, which went to Ridley Scott’s The Martian. Johnson was the only winner associated with the film. The Age of Adaline, The Longest Ride, and Straight Outta Compton were the other three films in the category.
