Oops...she did it again. That is, if she has run into a pole before.

Britney Spears has kicked off 2016 by having a clumsy little mishap, and she has the nasty bruise on her face to prove it.

"Good morning 2016!" she captioned the photo. "Don't mind the little bruise on my forehead... Ran into a pole." 

Ouch!

In the pic, Britney is frowning and wearing a leather jacket with her trademark blonde locks in a high ponytail. Of course, the most notable feature in the Instagram post is the black and blue lump on her forehead.

The 34-year-old singer is no stranger to injuries. In April of 2015, she rolled her ankle in the middle of her Las Vegas Piece of Me show. Though she kept the concert going after the injury, she later found out she tore some ligaments in her ankle and had to cancel some shows.

"Well, I actually wasn't doing anything that hard," Spears told Ellen DeGeneres about the mishap. "I was just kind of bopping around. And I've done like eight years worth of shows. Plenty of shows! And I've never actually fell onstage, so it was really kind of embarrassing. But yeah, I fell down and I got up, and my dancers kind of guided me to keep going."

Let's hope her little run-in with the pole is the worst injury Brit Brit has in 2016!
