Lenny Kravitz has broken his silence on flashing his penis during a show in Stockholm, Sweden on Monday, revealing a text message he received from a famous friend.

Kravitz, who might go down in history as the celebrity with the most explicit wardrobe malfunction, used the hashtag #penisgate to poke fun at the incident.

He tweeted a screenshot of a text message Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler sent him on Tuesday, which read, “Dude…No underwear and pierced…F--k me…You never showed me that s--t."

Kravitz was bent down in a squat and jamming on his guitar for his fans when his leather pants split at the seam, exposing his bare penis and revealing his piercing.

Social media users have run rampant with jokes ever since, and a NSFW GIF has even been created.
