"走光" 的英文是 wardrobe malfunction

最近我注意到，網路上有人在討論 "走光" 的英文該怎麼說。事實上，美國的流行音樂天后珍娜‧傑克遜 (Janet Jackson) 極有可能是現代走光事件的始作俑者。

我還記得 2004 年年初，珍娜‧傑克遜在美國超級杯 (Super Bowl) 美式足球的中場休息時間現身表演，最後一段與目前當紅的賈斯汀同台。賈斯汀唱著挑逗性的歌曲，對珍娜做出挑逗性的動作，最後竟然把珍娜的上衣扒掉一部份，讓她在收看電視直播的觀眾面前裸露乳房，造成輿情譁然。賈斯汀後來公開道歉，說那是場意外，本來排練得好好的，想不到後來正式表演時卻發生了 "服裝故障" (wardrobe malfunction)。

不管社會大眾相不相信賈斯汀的說法，這個 wardrobe malfunction 就在轟動之後留存了下來，相當於中文的 "走光" (走漏春光？)。《英語牛津詞典》(Oxford Dictionary of English) 第 3 版 (2010) 也已經收錄了這個詞組，詞性是名詞，語體為口語，定義如下：

an instance of a person accidentally exposing an intimate part of their body as a result of an article of clothing slipping out of position.

例句有一：

In the wake of Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction," the FCC received 500,000 complaints.
