LOS ANGELES, Nov. 23 (UPI) -- Singer and actress Jennifer Lopez Monday laughed off an embarrassing misstep she made at the American Music Awards show Sunday night.

She jumped down onto the stage from a dancer's back and fell on her bottom during a performance of her new song "Louboutins." She quickly bounced back up and went right on dancing, however.

"Did I trip a little bit? I don't even remember," EW.com reported she joked on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show Monday morning. "I meant to do that! You should know me better than that. That was part of the choreography!"

Seacrest praised Lopez with "the greatest recovery ever" following her tumble, prompting the entertainer to note, "The measure of things is not what happens when you fall, it's how you handle when you fall," EW.com said.

TMZ said the trip was edited out of the West Coast re-broadcast of the awards presentation.
