Lady Gaga and a fan tumbled from the stage at Park Theater on Thursday night as the superstar resumed her “Enigma” residency.
The yet-identified man picked Gaga up as she wrapped her legs around his waist, his feet slipped and the two fell about three feet to the floor. A loud snap could be heard in a fans’ video of the moments, and what seems to be a broken chair was visible.

Gaga then invited the fan back to the stage and seated him next to her at the piano. Twitter posts indicate she said for the crowd not to blame him for the incident, saying, “It takes two to tango.”

The 33-year-old superstar did not appear seriously hurt. She has long battled the chronic-pain condition fibromyalgia, which was chronicled in her documentary, “Gaga: Five Foot Two.”
MGM Resorts later confirmed there were no injuries or impact on the show from the fall.
