Jennifer Garner told Jimmy Fallon a funny story about her Oscars gown on The Tonight Show on March 16, saying her custom Versace gown was pretty painful to wear.

The newly-single actress said she brought one of her best girlfriends to the event with her, who helped her go to the bathroom after she had a “panic attack in my ribs” because the corset part of the dress was too tight.

Garner explained that she needed to stand up during the broadcast when the muscles in her stomach started to spasm, but her friend told her “If you stand up, they'll think you're Kanye West. They're going to think you're protesting.”

So she waited until the next commercial break. Here she is explaining what happened when she had to go to the bathroom and her friend had to lend a helping hand.
