Britney Spears was “embarrassed” when she fell over on stage, but the show must go on.

The 33-year-old singer had to cancel two of her Piece Of Me shows at the Planet Holly-wood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas after taking a tumble last week and admits it is the first time she’s had such a mishap on stage.

“I wasn’t doing anything that hard (when I fell), I was just kind of bopping around. I’ve done plenty of shows and never fallen on stage, so it was pretty embarrassing.”

The Circus hitmaker tore ligaments after her fall, but she’s not going to let that stop her working and has extended her Las Vegas residency for a further three months.

Wearing a medical boot on her left foot on The Ellen Degeneres Show, Britney said: “I tore some ligaments, so yes (I can’t perform for a little while), so I’m extending my Las Vegas shows by three months.”

The Baby One More Time icon premiered her new single, Pretty Girls, a collaboration with rapper Iggy Azalea, last weekend.
