If Taylor Swift wasn't a Girl Scout when she was young, we'd be very surprised.Because the 21-year-old was more than prepared for the potentially-embarrassing wardrobe malfunction she suffered on Saturday night at her gig in St Louis, Missouri.
Taylor managed to avoid the mortification of yards of flesh being exposed to the masses by wearing very sensible underwear.
During a performance of her song You Belong With Me, the Grammy winner's blue dress blew up thanks to fierce gust from the wind machine.
It was eerily reminiscent of the famous scene in 1955's Seven Year Itch, in which the skirt of Marilyn Monroe's white halter neck dress is lifted by a violent breeze from a passing train as she stands on a subway grate.
And though Swift revealed her less than pretty seamless panties, the practical nude coloured garment spared her blushes.
The young star dealt with the whole debacle with a aplomb, in fact, and avoided the embarrassment levels of many of her fellow celebrities.
She patted down her skirt as quickly and firmly as possible, and simply got on with performing her show - to cheers from the audience.
Unlike many of her contemporaries, the country sensation is modest when it comes to flaunting her enviable figure.
In April she told The Telegraph that she '[doesn't] feel comfortable taking [her] clothes off.'
'I wouldn't wear tiny amounts of clothing in my life, so I don't think it's necessary to wear that stuff in photo shoots,' she added.
And it hasn't affected her popularity, the pretty star was the runaway success of the Teen Choice awards last Sunday, scooping up six surfboard trophies including one for Ultimate Teen Choice.
Swift, who soared to popularity in 2006 at age 16 with her self-titled debut album, won a total of six awards: choice female music artist, country female artist, female red carpet fashion icon, country single for 'Mean' and break-up song for 'Back to December.'
The crooner was also honoured for her contributions to entertainment with the Ultimate Choice Award, the show's version of a lifetime achievement award.
Accepting her Ultimate Teen Choice surfboard onstage, Swift thanked her fans and joked: 'It's been a long time since I was a teenager, like two years.'
She noted how teenagers often are teased by adults because they are 'intense' or 'romantic,' but she encouraged kids in the audience and watching at home on the Fox TV network, saying: 'I think all those things are amazing things, and to all the teens watching, I hope you never lose those things.'
