Myleene Klass suffered a prickly injury while filming a fashion shoot in her underwear.
The I’m A Celebrity star was being snapped for her latest campaign with shoe brand Skechers wearing just a black thong and pink crop top.
But things came to a halt when the presenter fell into a cactus that was being used as a prop.
This led to one crew member having the ‘unfortunate’ task of having to pick the cactus spikes out of Myleene’s bottom.
Making light of the mishap, the 45-year-old shared a photo of her makeup artist carefully removing the prickles with tweezers - as Myleene and the crew struggled to contain their laughter.

The mum-of-three later thanked the crew for going “beyond the call of duty” as they got back to work.
And there could be more mishap in store for Myleene, after it was announced she is one of the famous faces appearing on I’m A Celebrity: All Stars, which kicks off on Monday April 24.
It is thought Myleene will make her return as a latecomer to the camp, which has been filmed in South Africa this time instead of Australia.
No doubt viewers will be hoping to catch a glimpse of Myleene in her famous white bikini, which propelled her to superstardom after Hear’Say.
Myleene's iconic shower scene in I'm A Celeb back in 2006 (ITV/PA)The classically trained musician, who now presents a show on Classic FM, came runner-up on I’m A Celeb in 2006, losing out to Busted star Matt Willis.
But her shower scene in THAT white bikini has gone down in history as one of the most memorable moments of the show.
And it’s one that almost didn’t happen – as Myleene revealed she only bought the bikini after producers told her she needed to wear something plain on screen.
She recalled: "I remember one of the show's producers looking at my bikinis in the hotel before I went to camp. One was covered in stripes and they said, ‘We’ll have to stop at the shops as that’s probably going to strobe on camera’.
"I ran into the shop en route to the jungle and asked the shop assistant for the plainest bikini she had. Best $40 I ever spent!"

"I’d say to any girl, ‘Go into the jungle’. It worked for me."
In a cheeky nod to the outfit which made her a household name, Myleene posed in an identical bikini to celebrate turning 45 earlier this month.
It definitely didn’t look like 17 years had passed as she posed in the two-piece and a pair of Skechers trainers on a bike.
Captioning the snap, Myleene told her 424,000 followers: “45 be like...”
She added: “Thank you for all your lovely HBD messages, for your support and love. Here’s to the next 45 years my friends. I’m off for a bike ride, a swim and some cake!”
