Jennifer Lopez once sang about breaking a sweat and working on the floor, but she found herself crashing to the floor after stacking it on stage while high-fiving fans.

The Jenny from the Block singer, 49, was performing in Las Vegas when she took a tumble.

Lopez bent down to acknowledge her screaming fans when her legs buckled underneath her and she fell on her famous derriere.

Proving she is a true professional, she jumped straight back up and strutted across the stage with her arms in the air.

The moment was captured by one fan who shared the footage online.

Lopez’s latest show was watched by a host of famous faces including Dua Lipa, Jessica Alba, Becky G, Sofia Vergara and Selena Gomez who thanked Lopez for “inspiring us female artists”.

“You were absolutely incredible tonight,” Gomez wrote in a gushing Instagram story. “I didn’t want to bother you while you had a moment. My flight leaves now or else I would’ve stayed! I’m so sorry!! I wanted to tell you how much you inspired me tonight!!!

“I Haven’t felt that free in my entire life! Lol THANK YOU!! I just wanted to tell you how amazing god thinks you are!!! He was speaking to me through your show tonight!!! Like made me feel like a woman!! Lol I love you so much!”

Lopez’s boyfriend Alex Rodriguez was also in attendance and kept fans up-to-date with the set through a string of Instagram stories.
