Most Embarrassing Moment From HS: “In the 90s, I used to wear big, wide pants and high, thick heels. The school I went to was a townhouse, so it had stairs that went down to the entrance. I was leaving school one day and my heel got caught in the pants and I fell down the stairs in front of everyone.”
