Long before Lenny Kravitz had his #PenisGate in Sweden Monday night, where he exposed his naughty bits in front of an unsuspecting crowd of onlookers, there was Janet Jackon's #NippleGate at Super Bowl XXXVIII back in 2004, which is still causing controversy today. In honor of Kravitz's partial "full monty," we've put together a top five of the most epic celebrity wardrobe malfunctions involving Jackson, Kravitz, Mariah Carey and more.

05) We all remember the the 2004 Super Bowl where "Ms. Jackson if you're nasty" performed a risqué duet of Justin Timberlake's, "Rock Your Body." It was the nipple seen round the world, and the start of the FCC cracking down on networks and the rise of censorship of what is and what's not acceptable for nationally televised TV (NSFW image).

04) The Cleveland Cavaliers' Lebron James exposed all of his junk for the millions tuning into Game 4 of the 2015 NBA Finals. Prior to game while gearing up, it appears that an ABC cameraman was a little too close for comfort when James went to innocently tuck his jersey into his underwear, when the cameras were zooming in on the man's every move (NSFW image).

03) "Ordinary Love" singer Lady Gaga's maximum boob exposure when she went for a pie run in NYC after her concert back in June makes the list. Initially the envelope-pushing star was seen sporting an off-white blazer paired with a bra and thigh-high jean shorts. Apparently the heat may have been a bit much for Gaga, who in the next camera frame had ditched the bra altogether fully exposing her bare breasts (NSFW image).

02) The Elusive Chanteuse, Mariah Carey, was vacationing with her billionaire beau James Packer on the high seas, and she got more than she bargained for when she came out of the water while simultaneously spilling out of her wetsuit. The vocalist exposed a glimpse of her chest to the hungry lenses of the paparazzi before she was able to gather herself back into her suit (NSFW image). 

01) Of course the cherry topper is Kravitz. Although some are puzzled by Kravitz's decision to go "free balling" in a pair skin tight leather pants, it sure helps us to heed our mother's advisement of always wearing a clean pair of underwear! NSFW image
