The Born This Way singer invited a fan on stage, but when she jumped into his arms he lost his balance, sending them both plummeting to the floor.

The pair were quickly rescued by security guards, and Gaga assured fans she wasn’t hurt, saying: “Everything’s okay.”

She went on: “The only thing that’s not OK is we need some stairs for the damn stage so I can get back up.”

She also reassured the distraught fan – whose name was Jack – that it was not his fault, telling him to “forgive himself” and adding that “it takes two to tango”.

After checking he was fine, she joked: “I suppose we should have some tea after that, f***. That was a fall!”

Returning to the stage, she told the audience: “I’ve fallen off the stage before… you know what we did? We fell into each other’s arms. We’re like Rose and Jack from the Titanic.”

She went on to perform vigorous dance routines to some of her biggest hits.

Gaga later shared photos of herself on Instagram, going through her post-show routine which included an ice bath, hot bath and compression suit.

The 33-year-old, who suffers from fibromyalgia (a rheumatic condition that affects the joints), previously fell off her piano during a performance in Houston, US, in 2011.

Two years later, she had to cancel her Born This Way tour after fracturing her hip.

Lady Gaga’s Las Vegas Enigma residency runs until May 2020.
