No matter how great of shape you're in, a fall off some stairs, in heels no less, can screw you up, controlling the landing is a pain. Break a wrist trying to brake yourself, a twist of the ankle there's no controlling what your body's doing, slamming the back of your head on the ground, all some pretty nasty stuff. Glad she's okay. Show people. The show must go on.

I'm glad she is assuring everyone she is fine but I hope she had an all-body MRI scan today.

When will they realize capes, stairs and heels DON'T mix!

Remember this?

Did anyone else burst out laughing when you saw the clip? I just couldn't help myself!

Yes, I did . You always want someone to be okay when something like this happens, but it was fucking funny.

You gotta respect that she went on with the show and also apparently doesn't use backing tracks.

AlphaStreet, her new music is much better than MDNA. You can't even compare the two albums. It's so in to say "Madonna's music has gone downhill" when that's not true. If her new album wasn't so overstuffed, it would be another "Ray of Light" or "Like a Prayer." But instead, it's her best album since Confessions, which is okay I guess.

I hope she's OK.

I'm no Madonna fan, but I dig how she still tries making her performances exciting. Embarrassing? Yeah. Is she out of touch? Yeah. And the way she interacts with today's celebrities reminds me of the mom from Mean Girls who's convinced she's just "one of the girls" with the teen girls (aka, Madonna sucks up to every flavor-of-the-moment act, even the duo LMFAO, and will act like everybody's cool hip friend). BUT, it doesn't change the fact that that performance is something I'd love to see out of Prince. Musicianship and raw talent yeah I know it's cool, but he's seemed to have lost his drive which he had back in the 80s/90s. Shit, give me flashing lights, fireworks, costumes, and choreography, that's what I wanna see now after years of musicianship. In that regard, she's definitely aged better than him (because something tells me he's unable to dance now, or at least very well)

Judged by one of the videos she actually managed to slow down the fall considerably by getting one of her foots on a lower step. To me it looked like she's used to falling, like people who've studied martial arts are.

She was interviewed for the Jonathon Ross show, I think yesterday or day before, and said she has a little whiplash but it was a choice of be strangled or fall backwards. I noticed how she managed to take a step back before falling to. She managed to brace herself pretty well considering the crazy heels she had on. She also said in the interview she's use to falling and bracing herself from her horse riding. Interview airs in UK on 14th March I think...

Another publicity stunt! First she purposely didn't show up to her own Oscar party. Which she knew, she wasn't going in the first place. Then she does the choreography for a FAkE fall, to keep herself in the news....

I have to give it to her! She is a marketing genius!!!

why Kcoolmuziq, whhhyyyyy awww gawd why did you have to...

Madonna on a night out at Mr Chow restaurant in London, one day after her fall at BRIT Awards.

She got whiplash.

If she hadn't been in such great physical condition and fallen right, it could have been much worse.

i bet the illuminati theorist are eating this up. they probably are saying, "she fell because she is due to be the next Illuminati sacrafice and this is just a test to determine her physical resilliance.

just funnin.
