At least she can say she has joined the ranks of Beyonce and Madonna.

At the weekend, Selena Gomez suffered a stage tumble as she performed on her Stars Dance world tour in Virginia.

And Selena will no doubt be kicking herself as it happened right at the end of her performance of the track - ironically titled Slow Down.

Selena, 21, gave an energetic performance of the track and impressively held herself upright throughout in platform boots.

But as she began jumping up and down and clapping towards the end, it all became a bit too much.

As both feet failed to rejoin the edge of the stage after one last jump, the dainty singer slipped all too easily to the platform below.

Proving their loyalty, a group of fans were immediately seen offering their help as she grasped their hands to regain balance.

Selena - who previously dated teen heartthrob Justin Bieber - recently revealed her attraction to the rapper Drake and says she even dreams up fantasies of him dedicating Twitter messages to her.

Selena made the frank confession during an interview with US radio programme The TJ Show after a female caller told the star her boyfriend had a big crush on her.

The caller said her beau often refers to the 21-year-old pop star as his 'baby' and asked: 'I was wondering if that makes you uncomfortable or are you flattered by that?'

Selena responded saying she was 'super flattered' and admitted she has a similar habit.

She said: 'I'm like, 'Awww Drake did that for me', when it's like, he did it on Twitter. I'm like, 'My baby did that for me!"'

More power to her: At least Selena Gomez can be satisfied that she gave a spirited performance on her Stars Dance tour

But Selena isn't expecting her celebrity crush to call her anytime soon, because she doesn't feel she is his type as her booty isn't ample enough.

She quipped: "I mean this in the nicest way, I just don't have a big enough butt for Drake."

Drake, 26, recently confirmed he had a fling with Rihanna and says he has a crush on 2 Broke Girls star Kat Dennings.

You would think celebs could get away with anything but even if I were famous I would never admit to having a crush on anyone these days especially after how Adam Levine (think that's what his name is) publicly humiliated Jennifer Love Hewitt after her crush admission, instead of saying I'm flattered or just Thanks!

If you watch the video it's obvious she's lip-syncing. When she falls she screams, but amazingly the singing continues. She's cute but the girl can't act, can't sing, and she can't dance.
