A huge pop star has confessed to panicking after a mishap on stage left her running of stage and now hopes her story can inspire fellow artists
An iconic pop star has revealed the panic faced after her teeth fell out mid-performance. Taking to social media, LeAnn Rimes, told fans she was going to tell them "a little story" as she revealed her fears became a reality on stage.
The hitmaker, 42, famously dislocated her jaw during a concert in 2014. And she told her Instagram followers how a dental bridge 'popped out' during her show at the Skagit Valley Casino & Resort in Bow, Washington.
‌
She said the incident, which sent her into a panic, was "the most epic example of how the show must go on". In her video upload, the Can't Fight The Moonlight singer said: "We're going to do a little story time about how the show must go on. And this is the most epic example of how the show must go on.
‌
"So last night, I was on stage in the middle of One Way Ticket. I feel something pop in my mouth. And if you've been around, you know I've had a lot of dental surgeries, and I have a bridge in the front. It fell out in the middle of my song last night."
LeAnn went on to tell her followers she panicked at the time and told fans to "hold on" as she ran off stage. "I ran to the side of the stage and put it back in, like popped it back in," she continued, before saying she "just went on singing".
LeAnn said: "I just had to get real with everybody and tell them exactly what was happening or else I would have had to walk off stage.
"And so, for the rest of the show, I was literally like this pushing my teeth in like every couple lines and singing."
She joked she doesn't have many firsts left in her career but this certainly was a first. "And hopefully a last," she confessed. "I hope my teeth stay in tonight. We shall see.
‌
"The front row, get ready for something to fly out. If you catch them please return them." And she hoped that confessing to the awkward moment can help other artists be inspired and know the "show can go on in the midst of sheer, utter embarrassment".
Her followers reacted to her video with glee. One praised: "That's FLOW. You are amazing. As I say constantly. Real. Authentic. Super."
Another found it hilarious saying: "Lmaooo. I wish i was there for this moment," with a crying with laughter emoji face.
And a third said: "That's nuts ! I had a crown crack off once. Thank god I wasn't at a gig. I would have called for the stretcher and an ice pack .. maybe some deep heat !"
And Grey's Anatomy actress Jessica Capshaw gushed: "Love you even more for this. The show must…go on!!"
