Carly Pearce Knocked Out Her Two Front Teeth

Carly Pearce looked great at the CMA Awards on Wednesday, November 11th, which she says is surprising considering the nasty fall she suffered just a couple of weeks ago on Halloween which knocked out her two front teeth.

“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.

And yet, things were still touch-and-go.

“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. Right now I just have a little issue on my top lip and after [this] I gotta go get new teeth.”

Carly and Lady A’s Charles Kelley performed her chart-topping hit, “I Hope You’re Happy Now,” which won for CMA Musical Event of the Year.

She recorded the song with Lee Brice and was scheduled to perform it with him on the show however Lee tested positive for COVID and had to bow out.

Charles also wound up pulling out of the show due to COVID exposure, along with his Lady A bandmates, but he and Carly had already pre-taped their performance.
