Watch Miguel Accidentally Land Crotch-First on a Fan at Last Night’s Billboard Music Awards

May 20, 2013


Miguel attempted a bold, feet-first stage-to-catwalk leap during his performance of "Adorn" at last night's Billboard Music Awards. He landed short and his crotch accidentally slammed the head of a brunette fan, who quickly ducked away, while Miguel soldiered on, giving a hug to another, still-standing fan. "Got caught up in the moment, thank goodness Khyati is okay," Miguel wrote on Twitter last night. The injured fan, with an ice pack, later hung out with Miguel backstage. The two were interviewed by Billboard, with Miguel saying, "I'm very happy to bring my new friend, Khyati, we just met. Unfortunately we did not meet under the best circumstances, but I think we're okay." Khyati added, "I adorn him." Watch the entire performance and the leg drop as captured on Vine below, along with bonus moments from the show: Justin Bieber's sulking "I'm an artist and I should be taken seriously" acceptance speech, Nicki Minaj and Lil Wayne's sexually charged performance of "High School," and Taylor Swift sticking her tongue out in disapproval of a backstage kiss between Bieber and Selena Gomez.
