Accidents can happen at any time and something that does not exempt celebrities. But the attention is brought up a notch when accidental ‘trips’ are seen on national television.

Singer Ariana Grande is the latest top celebrity to fall victim to such, losing her footing though she was able to keep her composure and handle it like a pro over at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards. Though it seems to be the first time that she has encountered an almost-humiliating experience, folks who took note laud her for being able to handle the whole thing with flare.

"I almost broke my ass," Ariana said to E! News. "Can we rewind? But that pony! You got to make it work."

It was a classic take where other celebrities may have wilted. But aside from that, the show must go on and Grande was able to transition and divert the attention to something worth having sane attention, the performance of her “Dangerous Woman” album.

"I think my single 'Into You' right now is definitely like a summery vibe. I did one called 'Side to Side,' another favorite summery type," she shared. "I hope everyone likes it. The cool thing is that everybody has a different favorite. That means a lot to me." said Grande on Live From the Red Carpet.

The night was however not centered on Grande alone. Justin Bieber was on hand as well after swapping his “Purpose World Tour” with a unleash a credible performance highlighted by performing his hits "Company" and "Sorry," complete with a spectacular light show and crew of backup dancers.

Like Grande, it looks like the 22-year-old pop star is also on the right track to get back on the good graces of fans. Bieber has had his list of issues with the law and has been showing signs of a potential meltdown with his uncanny behavior.

That includes strange behavior such as getting a face tattoo, walking barefoot around Boston, sitting in a tree and that celebrated rant where he said he didn’t owe anyone a picture since it was not indicated in his contract and that he was not a zoo animal via TMZ.

Backing up Bieber is of course his rep who claims that the pop icon is totally fine, and that Bieber has weathered the storm and is back on track.
