MADONNA suffered a pretty bad fall while performing at the Brit Awards last night. She's okay, which is surprising because it looked rough. Madonna was standing on the top step of some stairs leading up to a platform and she was wearing a really long, black cape. Her dancers were supposed to pull it off. But something went wrong, and they ended up yanking her down the stairs. She tumbled all the way to the floor and dropped her mic . . . but she regrouped and continued the performance. For what it's worth, she DID appear to be singing live. Afterward, Madonna posted an image of the cape on Instagram, and said, quote, "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!"
