I love when people fall over, as long as they are okay of course, but what’s better than the average person tripping up? A celebrity falling on stage for all of us to laugh at. AOL have come up with a list of 10 celebrities who have fallen over and here they are for you to laugh at.
10. Christina Aguilera
Christina Aguilera’s stiletto stumble after an Aretha Franklin tribute at the Grammys was tabloid gold following her National Anthem flub at the Super Bowl, just one week before.
09. Mariah Carey
Mariah Carey was in the middle of crowd hyping when her overhead clap caused her to collapse to the floor. Like a true diva, MiMi’s entourage swept her up and got her back on her fabulous feet in no time.
08. Musiq Soulchild
R&B singer Musiq Soulchild danced himself right off the edge of the stage during a show at Madison Square Garden. Peep Musiq’s plummet at :10!
07. P!nk
P!nk may have taken up trapeze tricks as her new hobby, but the singer-turned-acrobat was taken down by the wired hula hoops at :46. She later tweeted from a German ambulance, “I am embarrassed and very sorry. I’m in ambulance now but I will b fine.”
06. Rihanna
Rihanna was brought to her knees during a performance of ‘What’s My Name’ at a show in Canada. “Oh na na” no! Later that same week, RiRi suffered a second stage fall during her concert in Toronto.
05. Robbie Williams
Robbie Williams wiped out on stage and proceeded to give a full on explanation for the fall to the audience from the floor, rather than continue with the song. “That’s a bit embarrassing. That will teach me for being cocky,” he admits before labeling himself a “t—.”
04. Shania Twain
Country music queen Shania Twain fell from grace while making an entrance at the Country Music Television awards show. “I don’t need a stunt double,” she joked just moments after.
03. Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga is known for her crazy stage stunts and live show shock tactics, but sometimes the best stage moments are the unplanned mishaps. Gaga’s tumble from atop her piano bench is one such blooper.
02. Joe Jonas
During what should have been a smooth stage entrance, Jonas Brother Joe hit a speed bump, tripping over the frame of a window and landing hands-first into a floor full of broken glass. Ouch!
01. Beyonce
Beyonce lands on our list, yet again, for failing to plant her heels on the steps of a seemingly mile-high staircase on the live stage. One misstep and Queen B fell from her throne and went tumbling down … and down … and down!
The 2011 Grammy Awards took place last year so to celebrate that Billboard have come up with a list of who they think had the top 10 performances of the last 10 years. Take a look and see if you agree with any of them.
10. Gorillaz, Madonna & De La Soul, 2006
The 48th Grammys started off as no other Grammys had before — with an opening band that wasn’t even three-dimensional. Animated act Gorillaz took to the stage to perform the Record of the Year-nominated “Feel Good Inc.,” joined briefly by the real De La Soul and a hologram of Madonna. But when the real Madge appeared onstage moments later to perform her 2005 hit “Hung Up,” with its sexy dancing and ABBA samples, the Grammy crowd truly let loose.
Radiohead may have shunned the music industry in 2007 when it delivered “In Rainbows” straight to fans using a pay-what-you-want online download, but the band proved it could still play to the Academy (literally) at the 2009 Grammy Awards. Joined by the USC Marching Band, Thom Yorke and co. performed a rendition of “15 Step” that was so rousing, even the frontman shared some of his twitchy dance moves. Eat your heart out, Fleetwood Mac.
8. Kanye West & Daft Punk, 2008
When Kanye West released “Stronger” as a single in 2007, it seemed written in the stars that the rapper and Daft Punk, who is sampled on the tune, would join forces and perform together. At 2008′s 50th Grammys, that’s exactly what happened. Note to the Black Eyed Peas: THIS is how you do a light show!
7. Lady Gaga & Elton John, 2010
Lady Gaga’s performance at the 52nd Grammy Awards was classic not only for its over-the-top theatrics, but for Elton John’s appearance on “Speechless” and the duo’s duet on Elton’s classic “Your Song.” The best part? The conjoined mega-piano Gaga and Elton played on, not to mention the pair’s matching rhinestone glasses.
For the 52nd Grammy Awards in 2010, P!nk took a few lessons from Spider-Man and gave a show-stopping performance of aerial, acrobatic brilliance. P!nk may not have walked away with any trophies that night, but thanks to her high-flying rendition of “Glitter in the Air,” she was the artist everyone was talking about come Monday morning.
5. Beyonce & Tina Turner, 2008
Beyonce and Tina Turner were “rolling, rolling, rolling” as they lit up the stage with their performance of Turner’s “Proud Mary” at the 50th annual Grammys. The show-stopping, glitz and glamour-filled duet proved that Tina still had it, and no one –not even B — was going to take it away from her.
4. T.I., Jay-Z, M.I.A., Lil Wayne & Kanye, 2009
It was as though a new rap supergroup (“the rap pack” seems fitting) formed at the 2009 Grammy Awards, when all facets of hip-hop joined forces for one killer performance of T.I. and Jay-Z’s “Swagga Like Us.” Lil Wayne and Kanye West held their own as usual, but it was a pregnant M.I.A. who stole the show in her sheer polka-dot dress. The fiesty diva didn’t just look like she was about to pop — she actually gave birth three days later.
3. Usher & James Brown, 2005
Between Usher’s Michael Jackson-esque moves during the performance of his 2004 single “Caught Up” and James Brown’s fancy footwork on “Sex Machine,” the two R&B titans’ duet at the 47th Grammys was one to remember. Check out the dance-off toward the end of the set — you can almost see the exact moment when the crown was passed.
2. Melissa Etheridge & Joss Stone, 2005
Melissa Etheridge and Joss Stone may seem like an unlikely pairing, but when you throw Janis Joplin into the equation, it makes perfect sense. Both songstresses possess their own unpolished soulfulness and rock stylings, which proved to be a powerful match in a tribute to Joplin at the 2005 Grammys. Stone started off with “Cry Baby” before being joined by Etheridge, who triumphantly made a return to the stage after being diagnosed with breast cancer one year earlier.
1. Eminem & Elton John, 2001
Eminem infuriated the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation with the homophobia-tinged lyrics on his 2000 album “The Marshall Mathers LP,” and the organization protested the 2001 Grammys because of his involvement. But gay activist Elton John crossed the picket lines and joined Em’s performance of “Stan” at the ceremony in a move that was musically powerful, as well as political.
I agree with most of these but I would have added Christina Aguilera‘s performance of It’s A Man World to the list and maybe ranked Kanye West higher.
I always thought Pink was a lesbian, even when she got married to her husband Carey Hart I thought she liked to munch on carpet, but it seems she isn’t because she is pregnant.
That’s if Us Weekly are to be believed because they are reporting that the singer is 12 weeks into her pregnancy and Pink planned on doing it all between touring.
Pink and Carey broke up but got back together, a source says “Pink was determined to make the relationship solid. Now she’s really happy, and she’s excited she got pregnant so fast! She’ll be a brilliant mother.”
The singer recently said that she believed Parents should “beat the crap outta their kids” when they behave like brats. Let’s hope her kid doesn’t misbehave.
The 2010 MTV Video Music Awards take place this Sunday so Billboard decided to go down memory lane and take a look at some of the craziest VMA outifts.
20. Lil Mama looks more like child than mother at the VMAs in 2009.
19. At least Rodman rocked the red AIDS ribbon on his train wreck of a look in 1995.
18. Let’s hope Missy Elliot, pictured here in at the 2003 VMAs, didn’t use her MTV Moon Man to tee off.
17. Katy Perry was a “teenage dream” with her vintage Barbie look at the 2008 VMAs.
16. Slipknot looked slightly respectable in their suits and ties at the VMAs in 2008.
15. Before Gwen Stefani was a fashionista, she was “just a girl” in ’98 — who had blue hair and futuristic skirts.
14. Fergie‘s hat is reminiscent of “A Clockwork Orange,” but the rest of the outfit screams saucy schoolgirl at the 2006 VMAs.
13. Lenny Kravitz‘s 1998 single “Fly Away” wasn’t joking, but the rocker didn’t prove it until six years later at the VMAs.
12. How could Shakira even sit down in those skin-tight leather pants is the outrageous part of her outfit at the 2001 VMAs.
11. Jack Black is a not-so-”smooth criminal” at the 2003 VMAs, ripping off Michael Jackson’s look with more humor than style.
10. Destiny’s Child channels a Native American vibe at the VMAs in 2001. It’s more Dances With Beyonce than “Dances With Wolves.”
09. Pink — at her most, well, pink — rocks leopard and gold for a wild child look at the 2000 VMAs.
08. His eyebrows might be the most surprising part of Axl Rose‘s sporty look at the 2001 VMAs.
07. Lil Kim was as brave as they come in 1999, letting it all hang out.
06. Big Boi and André 3000 of Outkast somehow make furry pants and orange overalls look good at the 2001 VMAs.
05. Schoolgirl no more. Britney Spears debuted her biker side at the 2002 VMAs.
04. For once, Mudvayne‘s brightly-colored mohawks were not the most eye-catching part of the band’s appearance, pictured here in 2001.
03. Christina Aguilera definitely needed double-sided tape in order to avoid a “wardrobe malfunction” at the 2002 VMAs.
02. For once, Marilyn Manson, pictured here in 1998 with then-girlfriend Rose McGowan, is not the center of attention.
01. Lady Gaga showed off her many, many sides at the 2009 VMAs.
How the hell is GaGa number 1? Rose McGowan was practically nude and Mudvayne have bullet holes in their head – either of them should have been number 1. To see the full 50 craziest VMA outfits head over to the source.
source: The VMAs’ 50 Most Outrageous Fashions [Billboard]
Most female celebrities are frail skinny little women but I said most and not all of them because some of them spend way too much time in the gym or else just don’t have the best genetics. Pop Crunch came up with a list of the 10 most manliest female celebrities out there, remember this is all in good fun so don’t get on your high horse.
Donatella Versace +10 Leathery Skin, +10 Man Face. Level 20 ManLady.
Donatella Versace is an Italian fashion designer whose brother, Gianni Versace, created the famous Versace brand. Too many plastic surgeries have left her looking like a wrinkly cancer troll of the male gender.
Jocelyn Wildenstein +9 Plastic Surgery Gone Wrong, +8 Man Face. Level 17 ManLady.
Jocelyn Wildenstein is a person famous for no reason other than being absurd. Jocelyn was born into an incredibly rich family and has made a name for herself as a skilled hunter and plastic monster. In an attempt to appear more ‘cat-like,’ something which she thought would make her husband love her more, Wildenstein has spent a whopping $4 million on various plastic surgeries. But despite her utterly beautiful transformation, her husband filed for divorce. Wildenstein’s sheer ugliness inspired a musical titled ‘Bride of Wildenstein,’ in which Wildenstein was played by a tranny.
Brooke Hogan +5 Man Face, +5 Looks Like Hulk Hogan With Implants. Level 10 ManLady.
Brooke Hogan is the daughter of famous WWE wrestler Hulk Hogan, and she looks like him in drag. She’s tried her hand at being a musical performer, but has always been a pretty irrelevant celebrity. Big, muscly, square-jawed, manly, and frightening are all words that come to mind when thinking of Brooke Hogan. Hogan’s managed to look sexy in rigorously photoshopped magazines like Maxim, but the true appearance of that mirage is a lumbering man-creature. Just like her father.
Madonna +6 Melty Man Face, +8 Skeletor Arms. Level 14 ManLady.
Madonna used to be a sex icon, and the number one master of sexiness on the entire planet. Her music has inspired people across the globe, and her image has titillated anyone lucky enough to see her in her prime. Unfortunately, she’s aging quite gracelessly and has begun to look like a mannish flesh puppet. Her unfortunate man face is withering at a relatively normal speed, melting and rearranging itself like any older celebrity who’s been worn out by years of practice and performances. It’s Madonna’s arms that are really creepy — they look like they’ve been amputated off of an old man and sewn onto her. Hours at the gym has perpetuated one of her flaws, and Madonna’s pale, stringy zombie arms are begging for sleeves.
World Champion of the 800 meter run Caster Semenya has inspired a lot of controversy surrounding her gender, so much so that Semenya was finally asked to take a gender test to determine whether or not she was allowed to keep the gold medal she had won this August. Tests have determined that Semenya is a hermaphrodite, has testosterone levels three times higher than what is normal for females, and doesn’t have ovaries. But the young athlete has always lived as a woman, does not have male genitalia and was permitted to keep her medal. Hooray! “God made me the way I am and I accept myself. I am who I am and I’m proud of myself,†she told You Magazine, where her pictures appeared after a feminine makeover.
Rosie O’Donnell +8 Man Face, +8 Blobbish Man Body. Level 16 ManLady.
Rosie O’Donnell is a famous television actress and rotund lesbi-man. However, Rosie’s manliness is a product of her desires, rather than the unfortunate side effect of drugs or plastic surgery. There’s nothing wrong with that, but she still looks like an angry Guido.
The Operation Repo Toad +9 Man Face, +10 Blobby Man Body. Level 19 ManLady.
Here’s the ‘woman’ from TruTV’s hit show, Operation Repo. Operation Repo is a fake reality television show in which a team (of mostly lard asses) repossesses various types of vehicles from various wacky and ill-tempered people. Everything is a melodramatic reenactment, besides the main actress’ brutishness. She is truly a beast, and attempts to black out the manly parts of her face by drawing on her eyebrows and a bunch of hookerish black eyeshadow all fail miserably. Her mission: Painfully Impossible. Her face: Offensive.
Chyna +10 Neanderthal Man Face, +10 Steroid Enhanced Man Body, +10 Failed Plastic Surgery. Level 30 ManLady.
Chyna is a WWE wrestler famous for kicking ass and looking like the manliest woman possibly ever. Like every other male wrestler in the WWE, Chyna looks like a roid loving bodybuilder and is bursting at the seams with masculinity. Huge muscles, big goofy man-face, and veiny, claw-like hands define her figure. Seeing Chyna naked is an insult in itself — her plastic basketball tits and big muscly ass fail to accentuate her femininity and almost make the image worse. Chyna in makeup and heels isn’t much of an improvement either; it’s like unexpectedly stumbling upon a picture of a shut-in tranny who spends all their time shopping for lubricant on Amazon.com. Always scary. Never less shocking than the first time.
Fergie +10 Meth Face, +7 Man Body. Level 17 ManLady.
Pop star Fergie of The Black Eyed Peas looks like she has a nice body in low quality pictures, or when she’s far enough away from the camera to confuse you like a really mean trick. Besides pissing her pants during one of her performances, Fergie’s face is Haggard with a capital H. She was literally a meth addict and, like all of those suffering from the dreaded meth-face, still retains her rough edges in a face that says, “I was meant to be a man.†All the makeup in the world couldn’t hide a meth face.
Pink +5 Man Face, +5 Man Body, +5 There Could Be a Penis Under There. Level 15 ManLady.
Pink is a pop star known for her ‘edginess,’ or what most would call ‘relentless manliness.’ Looking like she came straight from the trailer park and is eating a tube of toothpaste, Pink flaunts her man-belly. There is nothing feminine about her stomach. Her sides literally look like they’re leading down to a dick beneath her white cargo man-shorts. Pink’s small boobs don’t help her case, but even if they were huge it would make no difference; the man in her is bursting to come out in multiple areas. Not included in this photo: Pink’s manly horse thighs, muscly boy-arms.
I’m surprised Lady GaGa wasn’t put on this list.

It’s that time of the week where Gone Hollywood brings you the best of the best in celebrity quotes from all over the web! For today, we have Betty White on “Saturday Night Live” talking about Facebook, Jake Gyllenhaal’s sexy body and Robert Pattinson’s revelation on “Oprah” that Kristen Stewart is pregnant. Enjoy! TGIF!
“The Jake Gyllenhaal workout plan…starts with growing long, long hair…gorgeous greasy locks and then washing every day….Wash, shampoo, then condition. Washing works the biceps and then the triceps by conditioning. And vigorously rubbing all of your body with soap really defines the abs and the pectoral muscles. And if you do squats while you’re bathing – that’s it!”
– Jake Gyllenhaal, joking with Entertainment Tonight Canada about his super-buff Prince of Persia look
“Kristen’s pregnant.”
– Robert Pattinson, dodging the question of whether he’s dating his Eclipse costar Kristen Stewart by starting a rumor, on The Oprah Winfrey Show
“[Ben Stiller] won’t win…[Bradley Cooper] doesn’t deserve to be on that list…[Ryan Reynolds's] eyes are too close together.”
– The Hangover’sZach Galifianakis, sizing up his competition for MTV Movie Award’s best comedic performance, to MTV
“At this point, we’re still trying not to, but I can’t wait to not try not to.”
– Pink, on her plans to start a family with husband Carey Hart, to Cosmopolitan magazine
“You go through the works, and then you’re like this perfectly prepared sausage…no one ever sees what goes in.”
– Scarlett Johansson, explaining how she glams up for red carpet appearances, to V magazine
“It’s my novel called Modelland (pronounced “Model Land”) that takes you to a fantastical place you’ve never seen, or heard about, or read about before…Where dreams come true and life can change in the blink of a smoky eye.”
– Former supermodel Tyra Banks, introducing her latest venture on Tyra.com
“She’s 53 and I’m 49. Soulmates is for Romeo and Juliet. This is, ‘Hey, I try not to fart in your presence.’”
– Sex and the City 2′sJohn Corbett, on his eight-year relationship with actress Bo Derek, to People
“I also try to read all of my fan mail. A lot of them send me candy, which I’m not allowed to eat ’cause my mom says it might be poisonous.”
– Justin Bieber, to Time magazine
“When I first heard about the campaign to get me to host Saturday Night Live, I didn’t know what Facebook was. And now that I do know what it is, I have to say it sounds like a huge waste of time.”
– Betty White, during her SNL opening monologue
“I’m made of 99% ham and 1% water. I was just cooked that way!”
– Mike Myers, on how he’s naturally a goofball, to Parade
Not all celebrities had an easy life and just grew up with money or famous parents, here is a list of some of them who worked normal jobs just like us normal folk:
Megan Fox
It seems almost sinful to cover up her gorgeous figure, but Megan Fox used to wear a banana suit when she worked for a smoothie shop. That’s right. She dressed up as a banana. We wonder if she can stand to eat the fruit anymore?
Madonna
It’s hard to imagine Madge as anything other than an all-singing, all-dancing, all-controversial superstar, but she once worked at Dunkin’ Donuts. Looking at her physique now, we can assume she hasn’t revisted her old workplace for a very long time…
Brad Pitt
Brad’s pre-fame job might be our favourite: the hunky actor used to dress up as a giant chicken to promote a restaurant to earn cash. Thankfully he soon realised he’d have a better career when not dressed up as poultry.
Johnny Depp
We’d buy anything if Johnny tried to sell it to us, so he’d probably be a retail manager’s dream. But before he became famous for his superb acting, floppy hair and chiselled cheekbones, he sold pens over the phone. Thankfully, he landed a part in the 80s horror movie “Nightmare On Elm Street” soon after, and the rest is Hollywood history.
He’s one of the most judgmental people in the industry, so it’s quite a treat to learn he started his career working in a humble post room at EMI. The Cowell is living proof that the post boy CAN become an internationally famous, mega-rich music mogul.
Eve Mendes
If you ever see Eva Mendes looking in horror at a hotdog, it’s probably because she used to spend her days working at the popular American fast-food joint Hot Dog On A Stick. We’d love to see a picture of her wearing the ghastly blue and yellow uniform, even though she’d no doubt still look drop-dead gorgeous in it.
Ashton Kutcher
The “Punk’d” star had to make ends meet while studying at college by sweeping up cereal off the floor at a General Mills factory and, when times got really hard, he even sold his blood. It’s safe to say, with a successful acting career under his belt and hotter than hot wife Demi Moore on his arm, he won’t ever have to sweep up old cereal ever again. And he’ll probably get to keep his blood too.
Rod Stewert
He might have one of the most successful music careers ever, but before Rod achieved international fame as a crooner, he had a slightly spooky profession: digging graves. If digging holes in the ground can aid you on your path to superstardom, however, hand over the spade!
Orlando Bloom
Brit actor Orlando Bloom used to be a clay trapper. It sounds strange, doesn’t it? However, it’s not a weird and wonderful occupation that would be more suited in Middle Earth, but rather a simple job to aid those who enjoy clay pigeon shooting. “You’d have these gentlemen who’d go shooting and I’d pull back the arm on a clay trap machine,” he explains.
Pink
We’d love to walk into a McDonald’s restaurant and see Pink working there. In fact, if we went into one several years ago, we might have done. Before she hit the big time back in 2000, she had no shame in serving up Big Macs and and french fries to fast-food lovers. She also had the lovely job of cleaning the loos. Nice!
Cheryl Cole
Our Cheryl is a million miles away from her former life. Before she appeared on the UK TV show “Popstars: The Rivals” and landed the job as one-fifth of Girls Aloud, she was working as a waitress in a restaurant. It’s safe to say she’ll probably never have to wait tables ever again, unless she ever decides to go on “Celebrity Come Dine With Me.”
