Things got a little crazy behind the scenes of the Today show on Monday! Hoda Kotb shared a video of Jenna Bush Hager on Instagram after her co-anchor suffered a mild wardrobe malfunction.

Hoda posted the video of a frantic Jenna and a slew of crew members trying to save her dress after she spilled coffee all over it. While this normally wouldn't be huge problem, the duo had less than two minutes until their 10 a.m. air time.

"Oh nothing ... 1 min 30 seconds to air and Jenna spilled a cup of coffee on her dress!! I love this girl!" Hoda captioned the video. Jenna revealed she spilled her coffee as she was trying to pour it into the garbage.

Luckily, Jenna made it on air just in time, and fans couldn't help but comment on how cute she looked in her blue dress. "That dress is darling! Loved it," one person wrote on Hoda's Instagram.

Fans also praised Jenna for being "real." "So glad to know y’all are normal," someone wrote. "You're human! That’s what we love about you," wrote another. Celebs, they're just like us, right?!

While it's clear Jenna's crew had things under control, we couldn't help but ask Carolyn Forte, director of the Good Housekeeping Institute Cleaning Lab, for tips on how to get coffee stains out of clothes, just in case you don't have your own glam squad on hand.

How to remove coffee stains from clothing:

Sponge the stain with cool water or soak the garment in cool water for 30 minutes. Use a Tide To Go Stain Pen (a GH Seal holder!) to remove as much of the stain as possible, then pretreat with a prewash stain remover, like Resolve Stain Stick and launder as usual.

If your coffee had milk or cream in it, make sure you use a detergent with enzymes that will help break down stains, like Tide Coldwater Clean Liquid Laundry Detergent. "Most stain-fighting detergents have enzymes, but check the packaging to make sure your brand does," Forte says. Also add chlorine bleach, if it's safe for the fabric.
