14. Harry Styles

15. Ariana Grande

Known for her ultra-high high heels, it’s no surprise that Ariana Grade has had a spill or two. At one concert in Toronto, the heels caused a slip during “Bang-Bang” and created one of the times singers fell on stage that will surely go down in music history.

18. Meghan Trainor

While performing on The Tonight Show in 2016, Meghan Trainor lost her balance at the end of the song and ended up on the floor. Jimmy Fallon laughed the incident off, even joining the singer on the floor as a joke.

Even Selena Gomez is included as one of the times singers fell on stage when she tripped in front of fans in 2016 during her Revival tour.

20. Pink

21. Katy Perry

During a performance of “I Kissed a Girl,” Katy Perry was trying to perform with frosting, which turned out to be a messy business. She slipped several times during the song, even with a guitarist trying to help her find her footing.

22. Iggy Pop

With his crazy dance moves and tenancy to stage dive, it’s no surprise he’s one of the times singers fell on stage. In 2010, Iggy Pop went to stage dive, but the crowd moved out of the way, causing Iggy to land on the floor—and swear off stage diving permanently.
