Jennifer Lopez cut in forehead after hitting microphone on stage

LAS VEGAS (ANN): Jennifer Lopez can now say she gives her "blood, sweat and tears" to please the audience.

On Monday (July 8), the 49-year-old singer posted a YouTube video that tracked a screw-up on stage in Las Vegas last month.

She was cut in the forehead after she hit a microphone while dancing and got the choreography wrong.

While the video does not show the moment of impact, she is heard saying in a pained voice that "I just looked to the side at the wrong time".

"I was bleeding - (blood) coming down my face," she told fiance Alex Rodriguez.

But he managed to soothe her, saying: "You showed why you're a champion. You were down and you still came back up and had the best show."

She was unconvinced, saying: "Why am I messing them up? Like one (dance) step here or things I never forget."

He firmly replied: "Nobody's looking at steps. People are looking at how beautiful you look and how great you sound." – The Straits Times/Asia News Network
