Madonna 'fine' after BRITs stage tumble

Madonna has addressed her horror fall onstage at the BRIT Awards in London on Wednesday night (25Feb15), revealing her tight Armani cape was to blame for the tumble.

The pop superstar's performance return to the awards ceremony after 20 years was marred by the fall at the beginning of her set, which prompted audience members to gasp and dancers to surround her after she fell backwards down stairs.

Madonna carried on with the show as if nothing had happened but appeared to be limping during a dance routine, and after her set at the O2 Arena, she took to Instagram.com to assure fans she was OK.

She wrote, "Armani hooked me up! My beautiful cape was tied too tight! But nothing can stop me and love really lifted me up! Thanks for your good wishes! I’m fine!"
