RED CARPET FAIL: Taraji revealed a little too much at the Billboard Women In Music Awards

The 47-year-old has portrayed the hip-hop queen bee since 2015.

But now she might be remembered for her jaw-dropping red carpet mishap.

Taraji attended the Billboard Women In Music Awards in Los Angeles and accidentally revealed all as she posed for the photographers.

The Academy Award-nominated actress was at the event to give Real Love's Mary J Blige her Icon Award.

However somehow Taraji became the focus of attention.

STUNNER: Taraji's frock was entirely see-through

Taraji went 70s chic in a striped maxi dress teamed with a wide belt that drew in her teeny waistline.

The sheer number showcased every bit of her killer physique – but maybe a little too much.

As the bright lights of the photographers flashed the star it soon became apparent that Taraji had neglected to wear a bra on the night.

BELLE OF THE BALL: Taraji failed to notice she had just flashed her chest

Within moments the top of Taraji's frock was completely sheer, revealing her not-so-discreet nipple covers.

The vixen didn't seem to notice either, as she continued to flash her Hollywood smile for the paps.

Taraji completed her ensemble with silver sandals, pink lip gloss and dramatic curls.

ICONS: Taraji presented Mary with a gong on the night

Taraji has been in the entertainment industry since the 1990s, landing her first prominent role in the 2001 comedy Baby Boy.

She then appeared opposite Brad Pitt in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, which led to an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress.

Taraji's last box office smash-hit was only last year with Hidden Figures.

The movie was about black female mathematicians who worked for NASA during the 1960's Space Race and was nominated for numerous awards, including three Oscars.
