Webster’s dictionary defines the word “pratfall” as “a sudden drop from an upright position” or “a blunder that makes you look ridiculous; used in the phrase `make a spectacle of’ yourself.”

Jo Jo, formerly of Jodeci, made a fool of himself while performing with his brother K-Ci in Sydney, Australia over the weekend.

K-Ci and Jo Jo were in the middle of singing their hit “All My Life” when Jo Jo leaned a little sideways, did a semi-pirouette, lost his balance and landed on his butt before laying down on the stage. And there he remained motionless while K-Ci continued the act.

The dead giveaway is when their hulking bodyguard saunters onto the stage, bypasses Jo Jo, and without breaking stride, picks up the microphone that Jo Jo dropped and exits stage right.

Anyway, we’re talking about the stunt so it obviously worked.
