President Obama experienced a wardrobe malfunction on Tuesday evening while delivering a speech at the White House.

As the president took the stage and walked behind the podium, a bright red lipstick stain could clearly be seen on his stark white collar. The president quickly decided to make the awkward situation into a laughable joke, by immediately calling out the woman responsible for his lipstick stain.

He also stated that he did not want to get in trouble with first lady Michelle Obama, his wife of 21 years.

"I want to thank everybody who's here for the incredible warmth of the reception. A sign of the warmth is the lipstick on my collar. I have to say I think I know the culprit," the president said to laughter at the Asian American and Pacific Islanders Heritage Month celebration at the White House. "Where's Jessica Sanchez? It wasn't Jessica. It was her aunt. Where is she? Auntie, right there. Look at this. Look at this. I just want everybody to witness. I do not want to get in trouble with Michelle, so I'm calling you out right in front of everybody," he joked.

After embarrassing a certain aunt due to her bright red lipstick, Obama returned his attention to the night proceedings and went on to praise Asian-American and Pacific Islanders, including Sri Srinivasan, who was recently confirmed as a judge for the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

"In every election, at every board meeting, in every town across America, we see more and more different faces of leadership, setting examples for every young kid who sees a leader that looks like him or her, and that's a good thing. We've got to keep that up," Obama said.
