Miss Beverly Hills gave the judges more than what they bargained for when she competed in the recent Miss California pageant.

As Chanelle Riggan prepared to hit the runway for the swimsuit category, her pink string-bikini top unfortunately came undone.

Watch the video below:

Spectators copped an eyeful as her boob momentarily popped out, captured on video by TMZ.

But the 27-year-old contestant continued like a true professional.

She quickly grabbed the offending strings and held them together with her hand behind her back, beamed her winning smile, and strutted her stuff on the catwalk.

Despite the wardrobe malfunction, Riggan made it past the swimsuit competition round and was named fourth runner-up overall in the pageant.
