Celebrities… they’re beauty and they’re grace… until they hit us with a totally
#relatable move and test Earth’s gravitational pull, only to find themselves in a heated
face-to-face confrontation with the cold, hard ground.
But we all know that when life knocks you down, it’s all about how quickly you stand
back up and basically just OWN IT.
Whether you’re Justin Bieber, Rihanna or even THE Queen Bey, trust us when we say that
NOBODY is safe.
So stick around because right now we’re bringing you a roundup of our favorite celebrity
falls.
What’s up guys, it’s Sussan Mourad back here on Clevver News, and sometimes we take
for granted life’s simple pleasures, like standing… or walking, for that matter.
Thankfully, us average Joe’s aren’t usually showcasing ourselves onstage in front of thousands
of people during those unforeseen moments…
Unfortunately Harry Styles WAS onstage doing his thing when he slipped over a kiwi…
Pretty fitting considering he named one of his songs after the fruit, soooo it was oddly
meant to be, in a sense…
A PSA for all other artists: don’t name your songs after fruits unless you’re willing
to pucker up to a bunch of produce during your show.
But that wasn’t the first time Harry has hit the floor…
During his ‘One Direction’ days, it seems he was having a little too much fun, like
during this attempt at doing the Waltz with Niall Horan…
Lady Gaga also thought that it takes two to Tango, but apparently it also takes two to
plummet off the stage when she jumped into a fan’s arms during her Vegas residency,
and the two went down together as one…
aand just like that, off the ‘deep end’.
Gaga being the sweet soul that she is, sprung back up and urged the fan not to worry, saying,
“Hey, can you promise me something?
Could you just forgive yourself right now for that happening...?”
She then put a comical romantic spin on the whole ordeal, adding, “You know what we
did?
We fell into each other’s arms, Jack.
We’re like Rose and Jack from the ‘Titanic.’”
Side note to all artists who attempt to pick up an actual human onstage: Make sure this
move is practiced beforehand, and maybe also wear some form of padding in the case of Harry,
Gaga, and even Beyonce.
Pretty much everyone with a heartbeat tuned into Bey’s comeback Coachella performance
in 2018, whether they were actually at the festival or not.
Her Homecoming performance was so impactful that it even won her a Grammy as she became
the first black female to headline the festival.
But what might’ve been even more epic was when she shared the stage with her sister
Solange and an insane dance battle broke out…
During Solange’s cameo, the Knowles sisters were sure to cover all bases of the stage…
in the air, dropping it low, andddd on the floor…
This minor slip-up was so subtle that it seemed like it was a choreographed part of the routine…
we stan a pair of true queens.
But I dare say it, you guys: Even Rihanna has her moments…
Then again, as we all know, this girl can make a paper bag look cool, so you better
believe she’s perfectly capable of flaunting any fall.
Speaking of perfectly crafted humans, JLo can basically also do no wrong, even when
she takes a tiny tumble onstage.
She handled the fall like a true pro… is it just me or did Jlo just make anyone else
question if the fall even happened?
Ariana Grande’s performances are generally complete with props, chairs, dancers, high
heels, loose clothing, and giant pony tails…
Basically enough obstacles to fill an entire courthouse full of liabilities.
Thankfully, she’s managed to dodge said obstacles for the most part, but unfortunately
luck isn’t always on her side.
During an appearance on Ellen, Ari was standing on a chair, singing and dancing in HIGH HEELS,
mind you, when she stepped down and got caught on her skirt train.
Is it just me or did Ari even make that tiny little trip look cute??
Yes - that didn’t necessarily constitute an actual “fall” but we’re just warming
you up here…
During one of her final “Sweetener” tour stops, Ari was yet again standing on an object
that isn’t normally isn’t used for standing, but even SHE was surprised that this didn’t
occur more often.
Alongside the video, she wrote, “Can't believe we made it to the second to last show without
me slipping on that slippery ass stool honestly I'll take it.”
We’re just happy Ari finished the entire tour in one piece.
And as always, looking like a queen!
Speaking of finishing a tour without any accidents, if you haven’t seen Pink in concert, for
one, add that to your bucket list, and secondly, take me with you because I have also yet to
attend.
So Pink has mastered the art of acrobatics and trapeze, all while singing at the top
of her lungs and hitting every note, and sometimes even scaling a building...
With all that terrifying mastery said, Pink has had to put in HARD work and long hours
during each leg of her tours since before I could even remember, but it was back in
2010 when one of her dancers wasn’t able to hook her in all the way during her show
in Germany, to which she flew off the side of the stage...
Thankfully this happened on the ground and NOT while flying 200 feet in the air.
Pink actually ended up feeling so bad that she tweeted to her fans an apology, writing,
“To all my nurnberg fans- I am so so so sorry to end the show that way.I am embarassed
and very sorry.
I'm in ambulance now but I will b fine.”
She later updated fans on her well-being after being checked out, saying, “Ok all my lovers
out there- nothings broken, no fluid in the lungs, just seriously sore.
I made that barricade my b*tch!!!!
Thanx nurnberg:(“
Iggy Azalea, on the other hand, wasn’t quite in the air when she took a tumble off the
stage.
As she walked backwards singing “Fancy”... she got way too close to the edge of glory…
I honestly feel pain just watching it, so I can’t even imagine how Iggy must’ve
felt, but she took it like a champ and literally didn’t miss a beat as she continued to sing
after she fell as she made her way straight back up on that stage…
I guess the show must go on.
We’ve learned a lot from Taylor Swift throughout our lives, but one thing is for certain: Don’t
trip over the small stuff… and I mean that in the most literal sense.
Following a New Years Eve performance in New York City, Taylor was filmed walking down
a flight of steps with that look on her face like, “I just KILLED that performance and
literally had the best day of my life.”
But if you mix frigid New York temperatures, icy stairs and 6-inch heels, you better hope
you’re holding onto the rails for dear life…
Take it from Taylor: Confidence and the ability to completely laugh off any minor mishap is
KEY.
She absolutely slayed that little slip, and I’m not surprised one bit!
If Ed Sheeran’s hit “Dive,” is any indication of what I’m about to show you, then don’t
act too surprised when he attempts to jump from speaker to speaker during his show back
in 2013.
Honestly though, I gotta give that recovery a straight 10 across the board.
But for Katy Perry, taking a nosedive is apparently a piece of cake…
During a performance of “I Kissed a Girl,” back in 2013, Katy belly-flopped onto an actual
giant cake, which could not have felt good, but it wasn’t even the cake dive that had
fans cringing… it was the fall that happened after the fact.
Whether her lack of balance was due to the slippery icing on the cake or something else
is still up in the air, but it looks like she had a blast nonetheless.
Shawn Mendes also gave fans a scare during mid-set back in 2018, when he jumped straight
down into the pit and completely misjudged just how close the ground actually was to
him.
Thankfully there was no need for “Stitches” this time around…
Buuuuut that wasn’t quite the case for country singer Luke Bryan, who always knows how to
‘shake’ things up.
In fact, Luke’s most famous song to date involves country girls, booty shaking and
getting frisky…
Back in 2014 Luke was performing a show in Charlotte when the booty shaking got a little
too out of hand, causing him to fall right off the stage.
Thankfully Luke was able to finish out the rest of his show like a champ, but the fall
was so hard that he later took to Twitter to reveal that he ended up getting stitches
on his shins.
Fans were so concerned about his well-being, which prompted him to fill everyone in on
his status.
In a simple tweet, he wrote, “I’m good.
Few stitches.”
Demi Lovato caused what may be the biggest heatwave of Summer 2015 with her single “Cool
For The Summer”, but as she was performing on a soaking wet stage IN HEELS above a giant
swimming pool, she slipped and fell, resulting in some not-so-cool bruises…
Seriously this one was so scary to watch...
Anyone else still get minor heart palpitations five years later watching this video…?
Same.
Another unfortunate situation involving a cursed pair of stilettos happened when Meghan
Trainor performed her song “Me Too” during a 2016 appearance on The Tonight Show.
And what’s worse…
Meghan managed to make it all the way to the end of the song when she tried to grab the
microphone stand, buuuut wasn’t so lucky.
Seriously, OWWWWW!
Jimmy Fallon was kind enough to join Meghan on the floor as the two shared a laugh, but
I’d be willing to bet Meghan cozied up to an ice pack for that ankle…
Selena Gomez also found herself on the floor during her 2016 Revival tour.
She laughed it off and totally owned it, telling fans, “First fall of the whole tour… can
you believe it?!”
Just one of the many reasons why we love Selena…
And finally, I’m just going to leave this gem right here to remind you that Jennifer
Lawrence’s 2013 Oscar award acceptance fall will NEVER, ever in a million years be forgotten.
So I think we can all learn a few lessons from some of our favorite stars: always pick
your feet up when walking, be fully aware of your surroundings, and basically just don’t
attempt anything that might turn into a meme later and you should be good.
But honestly, one thing I definitely learned is if you fall, get up, dust yourself and
keep on doing you!
But right now, I wanna hear which onstage fall you thought was the most intense to watch
and still sticks with you to this day.
Personally, I’m still feeling the pain of Demi’s….
