She apparently was struck by a piece of lighting equipment and fell, hitting her head on concrete, on the set of The Good Wife. No further details known.

Poor girl is so accident prone. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Broadwayfan12, she really is! In interviews she has talked about falling down concrete steps after an audition, and her hair catching on fire because of a candle.

All she needs is a shot of botox and a spray tan and she'll be fine. (I couldn't resist.)

But in all seriousness, I hope she recovers quickly.

Did it knock her weave off? I have a feeling it did. My senses are tingling.

Poor Kristin! She's so tiny and prone to any accidents! The pictures of the accident from TMZ look somewhat serious .

This became true:

The poor kid. She's already got migraines. How much more can her little coco-bean take? I hope they're watching her very carefully, since head injuries are dangerous.

I remember reading her autobiography. In it, she discussed how she deals with Meniere's. This accident doesn't help things. from RC in Austin, Texas

Anybody remember when she broke a couple of ribs right before her first big episode Olive-centred epidsode of Pushing Daisies? She still managed to shoot her scenes, though on percocet. She said percocet was the greatest thing ever invented, and that she thought she had done some of her best acting while medicated.

I hope she's alright, every news story says a different thing, there's one saying she cracked her skull(too lazy to get the link).

And how often does lighting equipment drop? (it's just hard for me to fathom how big budget tv studio/lot with top notch equipment and a veteran production crew could accidentally drop a dangerous piece of heavy lighting equipment on an actors head.)

She does have really bad luck with this sorta thing

The Brooklyn set looks exactly like the back lot at Sony studios.

Jules -- Would it be better if someone dropped on PURPOSE? Accidents happen. And they can happen anywhere.

All the reports I've seen said she's being treated for MINOR injuries. And it sounds like the light knocked her over, but the FALL is how she hit her head.

Thank you so much for clearing that up DMama.

[dramamama611]

Posted: 7/12/12 at 7:37am

AND....now on the news, it just mentioned her: they made it sound as if the lighting equipment DID hit her in the head, and that she suffered a siezure. They reported her in stable condition.

I'm guessing the siezure may have happened during the hospital stay since this is the first I've heard of it. This is not terribly uncommon with a head injury -- but still, frightening, I'm sure.

The report I read said "While filming a scene for 'The Good Wife' in Brooklyn, a gust of wind blew a lighting silk out of place striking actress Kristin Chenoweth". That sounds quite a bit different than a "piece of heavy lighting equipment" falling on her head. Still even a lighting silk can be serious.

She does think that. Before a performance of WICKED, she took some Viocodin (if I spelled that right). She got all doped up. "No One Mourns the Wicked" sucked, but after that, several friends told her it was one her best performances ever.

Best wishes for a fast and full recovery to a wonderful and talented lady.

Glad to hear that her injuries appear to be minor, although I did hear reports that immediately after the knock on the head, her voice changed and she suddenly sounded like Lauren Bacall.
