Mariah Carey Stumbles And Almost Falls During Tonight Show Appearance - Pictures

Mariah Carey made one of more embarrassing entrances during an appearance on The Tonight Show on Monday.

The singer stumbled and almost fell over her high heels as she walked to join host Jay Leno before her interview.

But Carey, who was wearing a skin-tight black dress, managed to laugh off the incident, claiming it was all part of her grand entrance.

“You know when I tripped, I had choreographed that earlier,” she told the audience.

"It was a plan to make Jay nervous that he was going to get sued."
 
She went on to blame a loose strap on one of her heels for the stumble.

Carey was appearing on The Tonight Show to promote her new fragrance and forthcoming movie, Precious.
