Rihanna

Vacations can be dangerous! The Barbadian singer broke her toe when she stumbled into a chair during a Cancun trip. "I can't let it stop me," Rihanna told E Online of the injury. "It doesn't stop me from having fun, so it can't stop me from working, either." The singer shot a video for "Hate That I Love You" while cast-bound.

Lovely ladies Martha Stewart and Gwyneth Paltrow didn't let their canes keep them from an Estee Lauder fragrance launch. "I was upgraded to a cane today from crutches," Paltrow-who stayed stylish with a Tom Ford cane-told Access Hollywood. "I was very happy to say goodbye to my crutches this morning." Paltrow required knee surgery after injuring herself-just like Rihanna!-on a chair.

Mandy Moore

Ramey

Ouch! Moore broke her ankle while jumping off a boat in Mexico for a Self cover shoot. "I accidentally landed wrong," Moore wrote on her MySpace blog. "To make matters worse, I was traipsing around amp#91;theamp#93; airport…for a month without knowing that I had actually hurt myself." The stylish star also admitted to removing her walking cast to wear heels ("terrible, I know").

George Clooney and Sarah Larson

Sarah Larson may have broken her foot, but she got a heck of a consolation prize in boyfriend George Clooney. The pair were in a motorcycle accident that resulted in a broken rib for Clooney and crutches for Larson. "She can take it," Clooney told People of his athletic paramour. The couple got dressed up for the premiere of Michael Clayton, which meant some extra primping time to cover Larson's black eye. "We are hiding it with makeup," Clooney told Extra. "It looks like I socked her a couple of times."

Star Debra Messing walked the red carpet at the premiere of The Starter Wife in a fabulous Bottega Veneta dress and a slightly less fabulous wrist cast. "I was in a skiing accident and I had surgery, but I'm fine," she told WENN media. She also wore the mandatory accessory to the Costume Institute benefit.

David and Victoria Beckham

The soccer star-and husband of Spice Girl Victoria Beckham-joined the Los Angeles Galaxy with a hurt ankle and then sustained a knee injury on the field. "It's just gone from one thing to another thing," he told the AP. "Maybe it's time for me to say, 'I need the rest.'" At least he didn't have to rest alone: as he wrote on his blog, "The upside of being stuck on the sidelines is that I've been able to spend some extra time with my family, which has been great."

It was all for rock and roll-Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz was just trying to give his fans a good show at the Voodoo Festival in New Orleans. "[I] ended up breaking the bone that connects my shin to my foot," Wentz wrote on his blog. "Currently my foot is the size of a small car." No word on whether girlfriend Ashlee Simpson took on nursing duty.

Joss Stone

The British singer made the most of a sprained ankle by wrapping it with a pink bandage and a peace sign medallion. Her injury-which happened during a visit to Uganda-was just as laidback. "I was just walking, skipping, doing my thing," Stone told the San Francisco Chronicle. "The ground there is not even, obviously. Last time I went I fell down a hole."

A skiing injury didn't stop Seal from paying a visit to daughter Leni's school with his wife Heidi Klum; the duo prefers to stick together. "It's not the Heidi show, and it's not the Seal show," Klum has told People. "We're very close."
