Who said walking on a red carpet was easy? Ariana Grande almost took a nasty fall when she stepped up on platform at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards on Sunday.

Thankfully, E! News correspondent Sibley Scoles was on hand — or on arm, rather — to catch the 22-year-old singer.

Watch Ariana trip and nearly face-plant at the 2016 BMAs:

Which do you think was the culprit: Ariana’s Atelier Versace spring 2016 cutout halter gown with its too-long hem or her Giuseppe Zanotti black satin platform pumps with nearly 6-inch stilettos?

Critics of her ponytail have also said that it might’ve been her hairstyle — it’s looking a little heavy, and it might’ve been what threw her off balance!
