In the clip Berry shared, she made her way to the podium when she tripped over a step and fell facedown on the stage. As the audience gasped and cried out, the video froze, and a red arrow pointed down at her stiletto boot as she lay on the ground.

"OK, if I see this on the Internet, fans coming for you," Berry said while smiling and pointing at the audience.
Looking Beyond is a charitable organization that supports and raises awareness for children with a range of special needs.
