Madonna took a nasty spill while horseback riding in the Hamptons this afternoon.
The 50-year-old pop icon, decked out in full riding gear and helmet, was doing jumps at famed photographer Steven Klein's horse farm in Bridgehampton when she fell around 4:20 p.m.
After the fall, about 10 people, including 22-year-old boy toy Jesus Luz, nervously gathered around her before emergency workers arrived.
She was carried into an ambulance on a backboard and rushed to Southampton Hospital with Klein by her side.
A police source said the injuries did not appear serious and she was taken to the hospital for precautionary reasons.
The Material Mom's day began when she and her sons Rocco, 8, and David, 3, took a helicopter from Manhattan and landed at East Hampton airport around 2p.m.
She then went straight to Klein's compound for what should have been a relaxing day in the sun.
Some of her luggage was taken to actress and good friend's Gwyneth Paltrow nearby home.
This isn't the Pop Queen's first riding mishap.
In 2005, she broke several bones -- including three cracked ribs, a broken collarbone and a broken hand -- when she lost her balance riding on her London complex on her 47th birthday.
Last fall, when her divorce to Guy Ritchie was announced, reports speculated her marriage ended after he coldly reacted to that slip.
"If you can pinpoint an exact event or incident which spelled the death knell for them as a couple, Madonna's horse-riding accident was it," a close family friend told London's Sun.
The accident comes as she's preparing a summer tour in Europe, which kicks off July 4th in London.
