The next time you embarrass yourself by, say, eating it in front of your entire school, allow Ariana Grande to inspire you in the art of bouncing back like it’s nothing.
On Tuesday, the singer posted a clip to Instagram that showcased the moment she slipped on a stage prop. “Can’t believe we made it to the second to last show without me slipping on that slippery *ss stool honestly I’ll take it 🙏🏼🙈😂,” she wrote in the caption. The video shows the singer stepping up onto the stool in her signature thigh-high platform boots, almost losing her balance, and then laughing off the near-misstep before belting out the words to her hit song “Side to Side.” That’s a lot to juggle. If she had fallen, it would have been more than understandable.
Fans were also quick to reassure Ariana that the move was entirely human. “At first I didn’t notice she tripped but that’s probably because I am the most clumsy person ever 😂😂 ,” one commenter wrote. And, let’s face it: walking on solid ground in flats — let alone towering heels — is hard enough for the rest of us. Adding in dance moves, and a slippery stage? Who among us wouldn’t have fallen on day one? Getting through dozens of shows without slipping is a feat in and of itself. Laughing the move off like it’s NBD is the only response.
