The former 'Office' star was seen making her way to the desk on Jimmy Kimmel's stage sporting a strange look; a pair of cut-Capri jeans and a towel. As she slowly walked up on stage, the actress carried along the dress she had intended to wear but was unable to and had to resort to a towel. 

Of course, Jimmy Kimmel asked the actress about her choice in wardrobe to which she replied, "So this was my outfit for tonight, and I waited a little too long to get dressed, and then my zipper broke. . . and I panicked."

It is rather strange how Jenna seemed to have access to a pair of pants but not a shirt but the actress seemed to be perfectly comfortable in her own skin as she told Kimmel, "the show must go on.  I’ve never been more comfortable. I am mentally a little freaking out that I’m on a talk show in a towel, but I am physically very comfortable."

As far as Jimmy was concerned, he had convinced himself that they had merely run into each other at a spa. Once they had discussed and got past the wardrobe debacle, Jenna spoke about her new comedy, Splitting Up, which is all set to star Oliver Hudson and follows a divorced couple who decide to practice a method called bird-nesting. 

Bird-nesting is a process when one parent lives in the family home so that the children are not forced to move between homes. 

Jenna also went on to speak about how she was a huge fan of the Kardashians and how excited she was to run into them in Kyoto. She was surprised at how after living in LA for around 20 years she had never bumped into any of the Kardashians and she shared her experience with Kimmel.
