Miguel is firing back after news broke that he was ordered to not perform the dance move that became an unfortunate, fan-smashing leg drop at the Billboard Music Awards. According to the "Adorn" singer, the news is a fabrication.

"The reports claiming that Miguel was warned by producers not to jump are completely false," the singer's rep told BET.

The rep added that producers actually confirmed that he would do the stunt to ensure cameras wouldn't miss it.

Also, it appears Miguel performed the move in rehearsals several times before the show aired.

Yesterday TMZ reported:

Miguel was ORDERED not to attempt a dangerous jump over the crowd during his performance at the Billboard Music Awards because producers believed it was too dangerous ... but the singer ignored them ... Miguel approached producers before rehearsals and asked if he could try to jump over the crowd during his performance ... but producers shot down the idea, telling Miguel it was just too dangerous.

However, whether the jump was allowed or not, it still probably won't save Miguel from a lawsuit. Khyati Shah's lawyer told The Guardian that they may consider legal action.

"A number of attempts were made to reach Khyati and her lawyer after the performance to see how she was doing and whether any assistance could be offered," Miguel's rep said.
