Beyonce Recalls OSCAR Night Shoe Hell

Beyonce Recalls OSCAR Night Shoe Hell 2007-01-01
BEYONCE KNOWLES had to muster up all her professionalism when she performed at
the Oscars in March (05) because she had to hide the fact her shoe had broken
as she sang.
The DESTINY'S CHILD star performed three of the Oscar-nominated tunes and had
to cope with bigger issues than just nerves when she stepped out onto the Kodak
Theater stage in Hollywood.
She explains, "When I walked down those stairs, not only was my shoe not on,
my ear monitor wasn't on.
"So, the song started, and I'm thinking, 'Oh God, my shoe's not done, my
monitor's not on, and this is going to be embarrassing... I'm going to fall
down the stairs.
"When I got to the bottom of the stairs, my shoes is off, and it's stuck in
the tulle of the bottom of the dress. I'm singing on one tiptoe, and I'm trying
to balance it... It was a mess."
