Paula Abdul Fall From Stage Stuns Concertgoers

Paula Abdul fell head first from the stage during a concert in Biloxi, Mississippi, on Saturday.

The 56-year-old singer and former "American Idol" judge was dancing close to the edge of the stage before tumbling into the audience during her Straight Up Paula! tour, People magazine reported.

Concertgoers shrieked when the fall occurred. One fan, who posted a video of the mishap on social media, told People that the singer didn't appear to be hurt and "finished like a champ."

Abdul was at the Hard Rock Live and singing her 1991 song "The Promise of a New Day" when she fell, NBC News noted. It was her third concert of her current tour. Her next concert is scheduled for Oct. 25 in Windsor, Ontario.
