No Foot, No Problem for Chesney

Kenny ChesneyKenny Chesney suffered a foot injury during his entrance to the stage last night -- but finished his set without incident. Who says country stars ain't tough?

He was coming up through the bottom of the stage on an elevator, when his foot (which was harnessed in for safety) got stuck between the lift and the stage. After finally freeing himself, Chesney performed his whole set -- he was the final act of a show that included LeAnn Rimes and Brooks & Dunn -- with a noticeable limp.

Chesney said afterwards, "I took one look at those fans, and there was no way I wasn't going on." And they all took one look at him and said, "Hey, wasn't he married to Renée Zellweger?"

8. Yeah COUNTRY musicians are tough.. What about TRACE ADKINS who had severe stomach problems, hurting big time, went on stage, did the whole show the left the concert and went straight to the hospital. He ended up having about 8 inches of his intestines removed due to an infection.

Then you see the BACKSTREET BOYS whining about not having WHEAT GRASS JUICE in their dressing rooms. Pusses...

9. Saw it happen. It was awful. He limped all night and had to have Uncle Kracker play a few songs. He was in a lot of pain but we were all too partied to care.
