QVC host John Battagliese accidentally almost made a very risqué mistake live on air.
Last week, Toni Brattin went viral after she made an X-rated blunder on the shopping show, accidentally naming a sex act while promoting her line of wigs.
Now, in the wake of the incident, Battagliese shared a throwback clip of himself coming very close to making an equally awkward comment on the series, before he thankfully caught himself.
He posted the clip to his Instagram, which showed him discussing a set of HomeWorx by Slatkin + Co. Seaside candles that were on sale.
When it came time for him to describe the piña colada scent, he began stumbling his words before he accidentally almost said the word penis.
'We have the penal... peni - I can't say this word,' he said. 'Pineapple colada, there you go.'
'Live TV is not for the faint of heart… had to bring this out from the QVC blooper vault,' he captioned the hilarious video.
'In my defense it said "pineapple colada" on my card and I have poor eyesight,' he added in a comment.

When he was describing the piña colada scent of a candle, he began stumbling his words before he accidentally almost said the word penis.
He also admitted he was so mortified he 'wanted to crawl off' stage when it happened.
Last week, 66-year-old Brattin, known for her Toni Brattin Wigs & Hair Fabulous line, was showcasing one of her hairpieces during an episode of the shopping show when she accidentally made a crude comment.
Brattin tried the wig on and gushed about its 'texture' and the 'wavy pattern,' before she added: 'It looks like you went and got a b**w job... a blowout at your salon.'
Clearly horrified by the risqué mishap, she stopped and took a deep breath as she shook her head before she whispered, 'Oh my God.'
Brattin faced away from the camera when she said it because she had been showing off the wig.
She stood frozen for a few moments with her back turned and her hands outstretched.
'It looks beautiful,' she then said with a chuckle, trying to regain her composure but still refusing to turn around.
Anchor Terri Conn quickly stepped in to try to help, as she tried to change the subject by telling viewers: 'Here's what's happening, we're having a huge beauty sale today.'

But as she spoke, Brattin still seemed completely flustered and fell to the floor.
She dropped behind the table that was displaying the wigs, before the clip ended.
Thankfully, the star was ultimately able to laugh about it as she shared the video to her Instagram on Wednesday, writing: 'The show must go on,' with a laughing emoji.
'Love you,' she added, along with the hashtags 'bloopers, blowout, and live TV.'
