The Aerosmith frontman reveals his busted face, including some missing teeth, on Today after his tumble in the shower. And he assures fans the accident wasn’t drug- or alcohol-related.
AFTER STEVEN TYLER TOOK A NASTY SPILL IN THE SHOWER AND BUSTED HIS FACE AND TEETH, EVERYONE WAS WONDERING – DID HE REALLY FALL IN THE SHOWER? OR DID HE FALL OFF THE WAGON? NOW THE AEROSMITH FRONTMAN IS OPENING UP ABOUT THE ACCIDENT ON THE TODAY SHOW… BUT WE HAVE TO WARN YOU THESE PICS ARE PRETTY GROSS.
HE’S BEEN PRETTY OPEN ABOUT HIS ADDICTION TO DRUGS AND ALCOHOL, SO STEVEN TYLER’S BIZARRE ACCIDENT IN PARAGUAY DEFINITELY HAD PEOPLE WONDERING IF HE WAS BACK UNDER THE INFLUENCE… AND MATT LAUER GOT RIGHT TO THE POINT.
“As some of your fans see these pictures this morning they’re going to wonder if this is a fall in the shower or a fall off the wagon…would you address that for me?
I love the way you put that, you know being in the program, it's something we have to accept. I went public with my problems, People thinking that is natural and normal. We flew last night from Paraguay after that incident and we're in where are we now? Argentina for two hours. And anyone who knows anyone who uses substances wouldn't be up at this hour having a talk with Matt Lauer and the rest of America. You know it’s nothing that I don’t understand, it still bothers me a little, and it’s something I have to deal with for the rest of my life.
But you’re clean and sober that’s not the issue. No, it's not the issue.”
STEVEN SAID IT WAS A ‘BOUT WITH FOOD POISONING THAT LED TO HIM GETTING NAUSEOUS AND FALLING DOWN. BUT SOME STITCHES, A LITTLE PLASTIC SURGERY AND DENTAL IMPLANTS AREN’T KEEPING THE ROCKER FROM ROCKIN OUT.
“It's all about playing to the people. We rocked out. Not only did I break my face, but we broke a house record, so life is beautiful, Matt."
STEVEN TYLER IS RECOVERING AFTER SUFFERING A NASTY FALL AT HIS SOUTH AMERICAN HOTEL.
THE AEROSMITH FRONTMAN’S REP SAYS HE WAS DIZZY AFTER SUFFERING FROM FOOD POISONING, AND LOST HIS BALANCE IN THE SHOWER. TYLER KNOCKED OUT TWO TEETH AND SUFFERED SEVERAL CUTS TO HIS FACE.
HE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL HOSPITAL IN PARAGUAY AND IS NOW RECOVERING AT HIS HOTEL. BUT THE FALL DID FORCE THE BAND TO CANCEL THEIR CONCERT TUESDAY NIGHT, WHICH IS NOW RESCHEDULED FOR WEDNESDAY.
IT ISN’T THE FIRST TIME THE AMERICAN IDOL JUDGE HAS TAKEN A SPILL. IN 2009, THIS FALL FROM A SOUTH DAKOTA STAGE BROKE STEVEN’S SHOULDER AND FORCED AEROSMITH TO CANCEL THEIR TOUR.
ACCORDING TO TWEETS FROM HIS DAUGHTER, MIA, STEVEN IS “DOING MUCH BETTER.”
AND SHE FOLLOWED THAT UP BY TWEETING: “My dad takes a lickin but always keeps on tickin. Can’t nothin bring down the Demon of Screamin!”
WELL, THAT’S GOOD TO HEAR. GET WELL SOON, STEVEN. J-LO AND RANDY ARE COUNTING ON YOU TO BE READY TO GO IN JANUARY!

After Arnold Schwarzenegger shocked the world with news he had a son out of wedlock, CelebTV looks at other famous A-list baby daddies who had secret kids, including Steven Tyler, Eddie Murphy and more.
Arnold Schwarzenegger shocked the world this week when he confirmed that he fathered a son with the family's former housekeeper. But Arnold's not the first famous baby-daddy to have a child out of wedlock. Take a look...
Actress Liv Tyler was born to Playboy Playmate Bebe Buell [CHECK PRONUNCIATION] in 1977 and grew up thinking rocker Todd Rundgren was her dad.
It wasn't until she was 9, when little Liv met another rock star, Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler--that she noticed a resemblance with his daughter Mia. She put two and two together and later officially became Liv Tyler.
In 2006, funnyman Eddie Murphy hooked up with Melanie Brown, and the Spice Girl was soon claiming that the baby in her belly was Murphy's. He publicly questioned his paternity, but shortly after baby Angel Brown was born, a DNA test had confirmed Daddy Murphy.
Based on this guy's dance moves, you'd think he was Michael Jackson's son or something.
Well, you wouldn't be the only one. Danish-born rapper Omer Bhatti (BAH-tee) grew up traveling with MJ, and his mother Pia was reportedly a nanny for Michael's son Prince.
While you can't deny his resemblance to Michael -- or even Blanket Jackson -- Omer's paternity has never been confirmed.
ONLY 4 IDOL CONTESTANTS ARE STILL STANDING, BUT COULD THE PRESSURE BE GETTING TO SOME OF ‘EM?
LAUREN COULDN’T HOLD BACK THE TEARS AS SHE AND JACOB WAITED FOR THE AX TO FALL... AND OF COURSE, RYAN PROLONGED THE AGONY...sot right after this commercial
AND THEN, ..
BUT BOY DID HE MAKE SURE HE LEFT ON A HIGH NOTE....
BUT BEFORE ALL THAT WENT DOWN, JENNIFER LOPEZ TOOK TO THE FLOOR, WITH “ON THE FLOOR”
NEXT WEEK LADY GAGA MENTORS... READY FOR THAT, LITTLE MONSTERS?
