Ariana Grande reportedly had a slight meltdown and broke out in tears on the red carpet at the 2014 Grammy Awards. The 20-year-old singer was a presenter for the evening and walked the red carpet in a floral-printed dress by Dolce & Gabbana.

One fan who witnessed what happened took to Twitter to explain that the "Honeymoon Avenue" singer was fine at first but became upset after tripped in front of the paparazzi.
"I first hand watched what happened," the fan tweeted. "Ariana was happy and she went with the best confidence on the red carpet. She was doing good at first. But then paps yelled really loud all wanting her to look at them. She can't listen to all of them at once and they kept ordering her around. She made one mistake by moving left a bit too quick and when she tried to move back she tripped. Eventually she got flustered and upset."
