Video of the Day: Beyonce Takes a Tumble

If you watched any of the cable nets yesterday, you probably saw it ... and if you listened to the radio this morning, you might have heard mention of it -- the clip of Beyonce falling head-first down a set of stairs during a concert stop in Orlando, Fla.

It's rather ironic that the slip happened during her song, "Ring the Alarm." But ever the pro, Beyonce got back up and finished the routine.

She reportedly joked with the crowd afterward, asking them not to upload the clip to YouTube. But not all were compliant ...
