Madison Square Garden was lighted up by a number of stars during the annual New York Jingle Ball over the weekend. Ariana Grande was among the musical guests tapped to help iHeartRadio celebrate the joyful Christmas with fans in the Big Apple.

At one point during her set, she tripped but quickly regained her footing. "Woo Girl, I almost died up here!" she joked to the crowd. "When u slip on confetti & almost die at madison square garden," so she explained the incident on Twitter.

The former Nickelodeon actress performed her songs like "Love Me Harder", "Break Free", and "Problem" as well as the festive "Santa Baby". She also collaborated with Jessie J for "Bang Bang". "Show tonight was so much fun & i loved getting to meet so many of y'all! thank u & love u," she said online.

She was joined by other musicians like Taylor Swift, Charli XCX, Iggy Azalea, and Sam Smith. Meanwhile, among the presenters were Ansel Elgort, Emma Roberts, Sarah Jessica Parker, Ryan Seacrest, "Orange Is the New Black" actress Danielle Brooks, and "Annie" cast Jamie Foxx and Quvenzhane Wallis.

That day at the separate Billboard Women in Music event, Grande was supposed to be presented an award by Bette Midler. It was expected to help the two make up after the latter dissed the former as saying, "Trust your talent. You don't have to make a whore out of yourself to get ahead." But Midler couldn't make it due to illness, so Grande received it from her brother.
