LeAnn Rimes’ teeth fell out during the middle of a concert.
LeAnn Rimes’ teeth fell out in the middle of a gig
The 42-year-old singer was performing on stage in Washington last weekend when she felt a “pop” and realised that her front teeth – which have been replaced by a dental bridge – had fallen out in the middle of a rendition of her song One Way Ticket.
LeAnn “panicked” and fled the stage in an attempt to put the teeth back in her mouth but ultimately had to own up her to dental drama to the audience as she manually held in her teeth for the remainder of the gig.
In a TikTok post, the Can’t Fight the Moonlight hitmaker said: “In the middle of One Way Ticket I feel something pop.
“If you’ve been around, you’ll know I’ve had a lot of dental surgeries and I have a bridge in front and it fell out in the middle of my song… to which I panicked and said, ‘Hold on!’ and ran to the side of the stage and put it in.”
LeAnn admitted that she had no choice but to “get real with everybody” about the unfortunate incident.
She said: “For the rest of the show, I was literally pushing my teeth in, like, every couple of lines and singing.
“By the way, I never knew how many Fs and Ths and Shs I have in my songs, especially Can’t Fight the Moonlight.”
Rimes explained that her teeth actually fell out for a second time when she performed the theme song to the movie Coyote Ugly.
She said: “It was the most epic experience ever. I don’t usually have firsts in my career. That was a first and hopefully a last.”
LeAnn first found success as a country singer when she was a child and previously explained that she is more interested in having “fun” in her career than achieving chart success at this stage of her life.
She told HELLO! magazine in 2023: “At this point, it’s more about, ‘What do I want to create? What lights me up and what’s fun?’
“If I do something I love and the achievements come along with it, great.
“I couldn’t be more proud of where I’m at as a songwriter, the messages I’m conveying and the mark I’m leaving with my music. I think it’s more powerful than ever.”
