Smirnoff, who fell during her Monday night number with her celeb partner, The Karate Kid's Ralph Macchio, said she was "shocked, panicked and asking for divine intervention" after the slip-up.
The 33-year-old Playboy covergirl, appearing with Macchio on KIIS-FM's On Air with Ryan Seacrest Tuesday, said she "just tripped on Ralph's coat and landed on my butt ... I felt like I was sitting there in slow motion."
"I didn't see it until I was about to stand up for the part of the dance where we come together ... and I realized I was coming together by myself!" Macchio said. "My main concern was that she was OK."
Smirnoff said, "It's funny, because you rehearse and try your best ... for a second I was thinking, ‘Where am I? Is this a show?’”
