I'm gonna be honest — I feel as if I'd expect most celebrities to politely look shocked from where they were already standing, or maybe even send someone else to help. But Lady Gaga ran over herself to make sure he was OK, and even helped him up.

As a generally anxious person who would've wanted the ~champagne~ (it's no longer red?? confusing) carpet to swallow me whole if I fell in front of thousands of people, this definitely would've taken my whole experience from "Yiiiiiikes" to "Aww!"

Fans online and photographers on the carpet were quick to applaud her for her kindness and quick thinking:

I'm gonna be real with y'all, this tweet joking about her upcoming role as Harley Quinn really got me:

And, in perfect Gaga fashion, she left the whole thing in the cutest way possible, shouting, "We love you!" back to the photographer.
