Madonna is alive and well and also has excellent wordplay skills.
Madonna's fall at the Brits should have been yesterday's news by now, but it turns out the singer suffered some consequences when she took her tumble. It turns out the singer got a bit of whiplash and raised concern with her staff.
Even a stage vet like Madge isn't safe from the occasional wardrobe malfunction.
"I had a little bit of whiplash," she said later, while taping her interview on The Jonathan Ross Show. "I smacked the back of my head. And I had a man standing over me with a flashlight until about 3 a.m. to make sure I was compos mentis" (in other words, in full control of her facilities).
The accident was a big deal for a hot minute - it even became a trending topic on Twitter. The whole thing allegedly happened because Madge couldn't manage to untie her cape before a dancer tried to pull it off as part of the choreo.

"I was told to tie my cape and start much further back and I had to walk further, and everyone was worried my cape would slide off, so they tied it really tight around my neck," she explained. "I got to the top of the stairs and I pulled the silky string, and it wouldn't come undone. My two lovely dancers basically strangled me off the stage. I had two choices: I could either be strangled or fall, and I chose to fall."
Sounds pretty terrifying, but Madge made light of the whole thing - unlike the rest of the internet, which has been re-chewing the incident since Wednesday.
"It was a nightmare" she said. "I actually created a horror show for everyone. [...] I'm done with capes. Cape Fear is over."
