Madonna Brit Awards 2015 Stage Fall Accident News: Suffers Whiplash, Blames Cape Tied Too Tightly

Fans will never see Madonna wearing capes ever again on stage anymore after the 56-year-old diva suffered whiplash after falling on stage at the Brit Awards in London last Wednesday.

Madonna took a nasty fall down a flight of stairs as one of her dancers appeared to be removing her cape, which was apparently tied too tight around her neck, accidentally pulling her backward.

"No more capes... I didn't hurt my butt, but I hurt my head. I had a little bit of whiplash," Madonna said during a recording of ITV's Jonathan Ross Show due to be aired next month, according to the Sun.

"I smacked the back of my head. I had a man standing over me with a flashlight until about 3 a.m. to make sure I was compos mentis" or of sound mind, she added.

Madonna was performing her song "Living for Love" from her new "Rebel Heart" album when she accidentally suffered a nasty fall during the act, which was the planned finale of the awards show.

Her appearance at the Awards show, Madonna's first Brit Awards performance in 20 years, was hyped several times throughout the awards' broadcast, according to the Guardian.

As a result of the fall, Madonna dropped her mic and missed a few subsequent lines. Looking visibly upset, she got back up and continued the song without further disruption.

Shortly after the performance, Madonna blamed her cape for the mishap, writing on Instagram, "My beautiful cape was tied too tight!"

"I was told to tie my cape and start much further back and I had to walk further and everyone was worried my cape was going to slide off so they tied it really tight," Madonna explained.

"So here I am marching in like the Queen, I got to the top of the stairs and I pulled the silky string and it wouldn't come undone. My two lovely Japanese dancers, they basically strangled me off the stage. I could either be strangled or fall, and I chose to fall," she added.

But designer Giorgio Armani said the wardrobe malfunction was not his fault.

"Madonna, as we know, is very difficult. This cape had a hook and she wanted a tie, and she wasn't able to open it with her hands. That's all there is to it," the Italian designer said with a smile backstage after his Emporio Armani show in Milan.
