CARLY PEARCE was doing an interview at the CMAs on Wednesday talking about the usual stuff, when out of nowhere she said this: Quote, "People don't know, but on Halloween I fell and knocked my two front teeth out.
"I had a bunch of stitches in my mouth, looked completely different than what I looked like right now, and it was kind of scary because I knew I was going into the biggest week of my life."
She was wearing some kind of temporary device and looked the same as usual. Plus, everyone knew about her and Charles Kelley performing "I Hope You're Happy Now". . . which they pre-taped on Sunday.
And yet, things were still touch-and-go. Quote, "I was fortunate to get doctors that helped and knew the pressure I was under. But with every day, I was like, 'Please, Lord, let my face heal so I can do this, because this is such a huge moment.'"
She added, quote, "Right now I just have a little issue on my top lip and after [this] I gotta go get new teeth."
