Take a look back at Reese Witherspoon , David Beckham , Halle Berry and other stars who have had minor injuries that have made headlines.
Chrissy Teigen
The model revealed her badly swollen bottom lip in February 2021 in what appeared to be an allergic reaction. “You’re all just going to think that I got lip fillers, but I didn’t get lip fillers between last night and now,” she said in a series of clips on her Instagram Stories. “I, like, bit an orange to try to open it and I think there must have been a pesticide or something on it.” She then flicked her lip with her finger, saying, “Look how bouncy it is.” Teigen posted some additional videos and pics that showed her protruding pout in profile writing, “Nose is swollen too lol” and adding, “I feel like it’s getting bigger.” It’s unclear if the star sought medical treatment as she followed up those posts with pics of a pepperoni pizza and cute shots of her two kids, Luna and Miles, who she shares with husband John Legend .

Teddi Mellencamp
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum shared a photo of herself on crutches in January 2021 and revealed she’d injured herself while playing pickleball with her family. “I gave 2020 the boot—and 2021 returned the favor! 4-6 weeks to be exact. Starting Monday because apparently foot fractures are all the rage and there’s not a boot in all of LA!” she wrote on January 1 after twisting her ankle. “The silver lining: it’s called a ‘dancer’s fracture’ so I’m basically a ballerina now. Pickle Ball: 1. Teddi: 0.” Mellencamp later shared a video message to her husband, Edwin Arroyave, via her Instagram Stories, asking him to carry her upstairs because he wasn’t responding to her text messages. In a subsequent Story, she thanked him for being “Mr. Mom” all day with their kids while she was laid up in bed.

Lana Del Rey
“When you see my second video for this album, don’t think that the fact I’m wearing a cast is symbolic for anything other than thinking I was still a pro figure skater,” the singer wrote via Instagram on December 27, 2020. “I wiped out on my beautiful skates before the video even began after a long day of figure eights and jumps in the twilight of the dezert. Anyways my fracture isn’t that bad kind of goes with my new bucket hat. Thanks to my beautiful family for my gifts.”

Pink
The singer revealed in December 2020 that she’d fractured her ankle after battling coronavirus alongside her son, Jameson, earlier in the year. “As if surviving covid wasn’t enough for this poop sandwich of a year!” she captioned an Instagram photo of herself wearing a face mask in a hospital room while giving a thumbs-up. “Well, I got my stitches out from drying that wine glass, that went well. Then I recovered from my very first staph infection for no reason (cry for help?) (right knee was lonely?) so I thought I’d fracture my ankle! Later tonight I’m gonna climb inside a raw chicken and see if I can’t check out what salmonella’s like! 2020 is the gift that keeps on giving.”

Kelly Clarkson
The Grammy winner revealed in December 2020 that she injured herself on the set of her namesake talk show. “Well, this is our first holiday show, woo! I was really excited about it, and we were running late,” the singer said on The Kelly Clarkson Show , as she sat while elevating her leg. “I don’t like to be late. So, I was running in my heel, which was a bad decision because apparently, I turned a corner and possibly did something to my ACL. So fun! So, 2020, just the gift that keeps on giving. It’s a really good year.”

Hilaria Baldwin
In November 2020, the “Mom Brain” podcast host revealed that she injured her ankle. “I broke my ankle yesterday because, you know … 2020. I went for a run and a car passed fast on this patch or [sic] road with no shoulder where there was a berm,” she wrote via Instagram alongside a photo of herself resting in bed while breast-feeding son Eduardo. “I ran up on to the berm to avoid the car and as I was returning to the road, I fell and broke my ankle. It was silly and I’m frustrated and sad … but I’m determined to be positive and heal as quickly as possible.”
Baldwin continued, “It’s hard because I can’t carry my babies — amongst so many other things. Reminder: if you are on a country road: don’t speed and please slow down around runners, bikers, children and go around. It’s worth the extra few seconds it takes you 🤍. Thank you to John … the kind man who stopped and helped me up from the road and waited with me until Alec came — forever grateful 💫 .”

Dwayne Johnson
“We ain’t playin’ tiddlywinks and we ain’t reciting nursery rhymes – it’s called the #ironparadise for a reason and things get extremely intense,” the Moana actor captioned a video from the gym in October 2020, showcasing a bloody cut on his temple. “Threw around my 50lb chains ⛓ for a drop set – I got lumped up and need stitches 😂🧵. Taste your blood, keep training and stitch up later – rules of the house. And I can confirm my blood tastes like Teremana, calluses and BlaMoan (black and samoan) Hot Sauce 🩸🤣😈💪🏾.”

Four months after being spotted wearing an arm sling and a cast, the This Is Us star revealed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that he tore his bicep while working out at home amid the coronavirus pandemic. “I felt, like, a little grain of sand and then it turned into a pea and then a marble and then a golf ball and then a tennis ball and then a softball and then a watermelon,” he said in October 2020. “It just kept feeling like it was huge, like a human head was in there.”

After several scans, it was determined I had 2 vertebrae out of place which was causing pressure on nerves and creating that tremendous pain,” she wrote via Instagram. “The good news is that I had neck surgery to correct these issues and now I am on the mend! I need a bit more time to recover before I can join you again at the bar for our virtual cocktail parties. … As always, I so appreciate your love and support. Be back soon!”

I’ve already said it but it can’t be said enough…thank you. Thank you thank you thank you.”
