"Bleeding!": Charissa Thompson recalls bloody arm during Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding festivities

Charissa Thompson has made a pointed confession: her dazzling outfit she wore at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding ended up in a crimsoned mishap.

During her Calm Down podcast conversation with co-host Erin Andrews, the sports journalist remembered how she discovered halfway through the celebration that her arms were cut up by the very same glamorous dress she was wearing.

The Fox Sports broadcaster wore a nude gown embellished with silver crystals for the July 3 ceremony at New York City's Madison Square Garden.

While she loved the look, she explained that the metal settings holding each crystal in place became a painful problem throughout the night.

"This dress was great; however, you know those prongs like on a ring... like a setting? The prongs were holding in all of the individual jewels, which is great. The dress was super heavy, and I loved the way it looked and everything."

According to Charissa Thompson, the small prongs securing the gemstones repeatedly scraped against her arms whenever she moved or danced during the reception.

"However, halfway through the night, I'm looking, and my forearms are bleeding. Bleeding! I'm like, 'What is going on here!'"

Nevertheless, Charissa Thompson said that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding was a memorable one, alongside Andrews among the many other celebrities in attendance at the glamorous event.

The broadcaster added that the "prongs" hitting her arms didn't stop her from moving on the dance floor.

"It was scraping. The prongs were slicing my forearms open. It was also slicing Steve's tuxedo open because each prong would grab a little bit or his tuxedo. I owe him a tux... by the end of the night, I'm seeing these strings all over and my arms are bleeding."

Meanwhile, at one point in the episode, Charissa Thompson didn't forget to congratulate the newlyweds, even calling the ceremony "magical."

"Congrats to both of them. It was magical. I will just leave it at this. It was magical... maybe there's some subliminal part of seeing them get married that makes me want to have a version adjacent to marriage and the commitment ceremony."

The commentator continued, reflecting on the "special weekend" and Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce being right for each other.

"Watching them get married... when you find your person, everything else in the world is right. And that to me, that night, that weekend really was a reminder that you can have everything in the world, but if you don' have the person to share it with, then it’s not worth anything. So congratulations to both of them. Thank you for including us in your special weekend."
