Dubstep DJ Skrillex accidentally set his hair on fire with his own birthday cake in front of a group of fans. Watch a video of the incident below.

In a video - which is the best we've seen since Olly Murs fell down those stairs that time - Skrillex takes a photo of his turntable shaped birthday cake before leaning over to blow out his candles.

That's when his hair falls into the candles and is set alight.

Someone quickly points it out to him, and Skrillex manages to put himself out while laughing awkwardly and looking around to see if anyone noticed. Which they did.

According to TMZ, the incident took place during a private party for the DJ in Hollywood, where Skrillex - real name Sonny Moore - was celebrating his 25th birthday.

Watch the video below:

Skrillex recently released his latest EP Leaving, and has told NME that he is already thinking of a new album as he has so many songs that he doesn't know what to do with them all.

He said, "I just always make music anyway... But I want to make a record. I just haven't had enough time to really sit down and idle myself and clear my mind and go, 'OK, what's the next thing I want to say? How's it different from what I said before?' and think of all these things.

"I have so much inside me, so many ideas, I'm more excited than ever to make music again, 'cause I haven't done that for, like, two years."
