LeAnn Rimes revealed to her fans quite the embarrassing moment.
The country music star said she recently suffered a dental mishap during a performance.
“We’re going to do a little story time about how the show must go on,” she posted in the clip posted to her Instagram page. “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,” she said. “It fell out in the middle of my song last night.”
Rimes, who called it the most epic experience ever, said she popped it back in and continued her performance.
“For the rest of the show, I was literally…pushing my teeth in every couple lines and singing, which, by the way, I never knew how many F’s and Th’s and Sh’s I have in my songs!”’
She added:
“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. You know, good times, just keeping it real with you, as real as I had to last night. As I said, there wasn’t a fu**ing thing I could do about it except either walk off or hold my teeth in and sing. So I just ran with it. In case anybody has an issue on stage ever and feels embarrassed by it, just watch this video again, and it’ll remind you that the show can go on even amid sheer utter embarrassment. You just got to be real with people.”
