Sound the wardrobe malfunction alarm because Lenny Kravitz has just given us an almighty one. The 51-year-old singer was performing in Stockholm when a squat caused his leather trousers to split at the crotch, exposing his manhood for all to see and for many a camera phone to capture.Thankfully he's seen the funny side, even tweeting a screen-shot of a text message from fellow rocker Steve Tyler of Aerosmith, saying, "Dude no underwear and pierced. F**k me. You never showed me that s**t."The incident has sparked comparisons with Janet Jackson's 2009 Super Bowl "nip slip", which turned out to be a publicity stunt.UK internet site Joe.co.uk pointed out that it was odd that Kravitz remembered to put a gold band on his penis, but forgot to wear underpants."Stranger publicity stunts have been pulled than weaken the crotch seam in the hope your penis bursts out," the site said...
