As if being the less-in-demand Knowles weren't enough of a burden, Beyoncé's little sister has suffered yet another tough break.

Following in the pained footsteps of Kenny Chesney, Solange Knowles soldiered on performing during a Sunday concert in Kansas City, Mo., despite a mechanical mishap that occurred as she made her way on stage, resulting in a broken foot.

Rather than cancel the remainder of her Art of Love tour, the cast-sporting Solange will continue performing the remainder of her shows. Per doctor's orders, however, she will be cutting down on the latter half of her song-and-dance routine, instead performing the from a centerstage stool.
