After the fall …
Country musician Shania Twain took a nasty spill last night while making her way on stage at the CMT Awards in Nashville, a misstep that she is now calling one of “her most embarrassing moments.”
The singer slipped on one of her high-heeled shoes, but managed to caught herself with one hand on the floor. Shania landed on her knees in front of a packed house at the Bridgestone Arena and quickly sprang back to her feet.
Twain receiving cheers and applause as she went on to present the Male Video of the Year award to Blake Shelton.
After arriving home last night, Shania posted a video chat about her unscripted television moment. She laughed about “making a fool of myself” and assured her fans that “I didn’t hurt myself. I have a bit of a sore stomach – that’s about it.”
Earlier in the day, Twain held a press conference to announce her 2-year Vegas gig — photos and details here.
