Jennifer Lawrence took the tumble seen around the world when she (gracefully) fell at the 2013 Oscars, and now she's revealing what caused her to lose her footing -- and it was all cake's fault.

In a recent interview with W magazine (via Gossip Cop), Lawrence explained why cake was on her mind:

"I was at the Oscars, waiting to hear if my name was called, and I kept thinking, 'Cakewalk, cakewalk, cakewalk,'" she told the mag. "I thought, 'Why is cakewalk stuck in my head?' And then, as I started to walk up the stairs and the fabric from my dress tucked under my feet, I realized my stylist had told me, 'Kick, walk, kick, walk.'"

Ah, it all makes sense now.

"You are supposed to kick the dress out while you walk, and I totally forgot because I was thinking about cake!" she concluded. "And that’s why I fell."

It's okay J.Law, we still love you. In fact, this might make us love you even more.
