J Lo's Oscar 'malfunction' drives Twitter crazy

Hollywood beauty Jennifer Lopez is making waves on the Internet since last night’s Oscars broadcast that many believe gave them a split-second glimpse of the diva’s breasts.

But did Oscar really get an eyeful of Jennifer Lopez? That's the question on the lips of Academy Award watchers around the Twitterverse after the "American Idol" judge presented Best Costume Design and Best Makeup alongside Cameron Diaz on Sunday night.

There’s already a Twitter account titled @JLosNipple, along with another body part that took the Oscars by storm, Angelina Jolie’s right thigh (Jolie wore a high-cut dress on the red carpet, see the photos here). That, too, by the way earned a Twitter account, titled @angiesrightleg.

And the first tweet by @JLosNipple was: “DID YOU SEE ME!?” followed by “@Oscars I’ve finally seen the light...” and then, “J.Lo's not to blame....it's my fault, I couldn't breathe”.

At last count, @angiesrightleg had 8,511 followers, and @JLosNipple had a mere 1,543.

Online denizens are furiously debating whether J. Lo’s ‘slip’ actually happened or if it was just an illusion given by her dress. Of course, a subject so, um, titillating is ripe for online parody. 

“Kind of amazes people think you could see J-Lo nipple. It was a shadow from the dress lining. Women's nipples do not point toward each other,” was a tweeted explanation offered by Timothy Burke (@bubbaprog).

“I defintely saw J.Lo's nipple #oscars,” said Doug Chabbott (‏@dougc2001) while Jennifer Gunter (‏@DrJenGunter) asks: “Is J. Lo's nipple trending yet?”

But what caught our fancy was a tweet by Morgan Fahey (‏@morganfahey): “I love that all of Twitter is talking about J Lo's nipple. And that I almost just typed it as Titter. #oscars”

Clad in a plunging Zuhair Murad gown, the 42-year-old singer/actress took the stage with her "What to Expect When You're Expecting" co-star, who also raised a few eyebrows in a form-fitting Gucci gown. But it was Lopez's dress that went on to dominate the conversation online, with celebrities and regular folks alike speculating the frock revealed a little too much.

Perhaps predicting the (maybe) incident, "What Not to Wear" host Stacy London shared her anxiety over the décolletage-baring dress tweeting, "I'm worried J LO might have a peek-a-boo nip moment!"

Many, unsurprisingly, weren't too upset about the malfunction. "J.Lo's nip slip > All Star game," joked @FernySuave.

And, not mincing words, helpful Carson Daly gave Lopez the heads-up, writing, "Dear JLo, your left nipple is out. K, bye. Xoxo carson."

Wearing a dress like that - a couture custom Zuhair Murad gown -- with (and this is an understatement) a deep, deep plunging neckline -- well it coulda' happened.

But La Lopez knows her way around double-stick tape -- remember that Versace?  So let's just say, we think it was borderline...and maybe narrowly - ehhhhh, very -- avoided.
