For quirky Katy Perry, jumping out of a cake is just too predictable.
Instead, the singer decided to dive into a giant dessert while performing at MTV's Latin America Awards in Guadalajara, Mexico.
However, her spectacular stunt didn't exactly go according to plan - just moments later, the star took a rather dramatic tumble after slipping over on the icing.

The I Kissed A Girl singer attempted to grab hold of one of her bandmates on her way down, but her efforts were in vain and she crashed to earth in breathtaking fashion.
Katy took the fall in her stride, and did her best to laugh off the public embarrassment.
No doubt she'll scratch the stunt from her repertoire as she steps in as host at this year's MTV Europe Music Awards next month.
