'The Voice' contestant scares viewers after taking nasty fall on live TV - Fox News

A contestant on NBC’s "The Voice" took a scary-looking tumble on stage during Tuesday’s live results show. Fortunately, she was able to quickly assure fans that she’s OK. 

Wendy Morton was the subject of a lot of online chatter on social media after she visibly hit the ground quite hard at the conclusion of her team's performance of The Four Tops’ "Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch)" with coach Blake Shelton. 

Morton, 57, wrapped up the song with her coach and fellow Team Blake members Lana Scott and Paris Winningham when viewers couldn’t help but notice that she turned to walk off the stage and tripped over a nearby piece of stage equipment, slamming to the ground. The camera cut to host Carson Daly, but he had his back to the camera as he looked to see if Morton was seriously hurt. Shortly after, the show quickly cut to commercial while she was assisted off stage.

"Unfortunate moment for Wendy Moten, who is walking off and we hope she's OK," he said before the break.

Fortunately, Morton was helped up and taken off stage by both the crew and her coach. Shelton had his back to Morton while walking back to his coach’s chair when the fall took place, but Yahoo Entertainment noted he quickly rushed back to the stage to help her up once he realized what was going on. Morton even appeared alongside Daly, 48, when the show returned from its commercial break to assure viewers that the fall looked and sounded a lot worse than it was.

People reported that Daly then noted to her and the audience that he had never seen anything like that happen live in the entirety of the longrunning NBC competition show’s history. So, regardless of how she performs in the remaining rounds, Morton has solidified her place in "The Voice" history.

Elizabeth Hurley said it was a "nightmare" working with Matthew Perry on their 2002 film "Serving Sara," which was shot at the height of his drug addiction.  The production had to be abruptly shut down because the "Friends" star needed to enter rehab for two months.  Still, the "Royals" actress doesn’t hold it against Perry, who detailed his addiction struggles in his new memoir, "Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing."  Hurley recently told Yahoo! Entertainment it was a "little tough" during the film’s hiatus. But when he returned to filming after two months in rehab he was "fabulous."

Daisy Edgar-Jones in ‘Where the Crawdads Sing’: Film Review - Hollywood Reporter

Image
Where the Crawdads Sing is the kind of tedious moral fantasy that fuels America’s misguided idealism. It’s an attempt at a complex tale about rejection, difference and survival. But the film, like the novel it’s based on, skirts the issues — of race, gender and class — that would texture its narrative and strengthen its broad thesis, resulting in a story that says more about how whiteness operates in a society allergic to interdependence than it does about how communities fail young people. Directed by Olivia Newman ( First Match ), the film adaptation of Delia Owens’ popular and controversial novel of the same name tells the remarkable tale of a shy, reclusive girl raised in the marshes of North Carolina who finds herself embroiled in a grisly police investigation. Her name is Kya ( Daisy Edgar-Jones of Normal People , Fresh and Under the Banner of Heaven ), but to those in the neighboring town, whose residents abhor her, she is known simply as “Marsh Girl.” The account of her...
