The actress appeared in two episodes of the drama series as Peggy Byrne.<\/p>\n<p>She claimed she didn&#8217;t take legal action at the time due to &#8220;fear and anxiety.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t do it out of fear and anxiety, so don&#8217;t ever let fear rule your life. I have long-standing injuries from that,&#8221; Chenoweth told Andy Cohen during an episode of &#8220;Watch What Happens Live.&#8221; &#8220;I wished I had listened to my dad, who said, &#8216;You&#8217;re gonna wanna do this.&#8217; And we&#8217;re not the suing family, but when you&#8217;re practically killed\u2026&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;Bewitched&#8221; star also described the moment the accident occurred during the episode.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I heard, like, a flagpole sound. I literally heard, &#8216;We&#8217;re losing the light.&#8217; I heard, &#8216;Action.&#8217; And I woke up at Bellevue [Hospital],&#8221; she recalled to Cohen. &#8220;It hit me in the face and it threw me into a curb. Seven-inch skull fracture, hairline [fracture], and teeth and ribs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chenoweth noted that her hair extensions saved the day.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My hair extensions, you know, made the hairline fracture go together. My doctor said, &#8216;What are these metal things?&#8217; And I said, &#8216;They&#8217;re hair extensions.&#8217; And he said, &#8216;They saved your life,'&#8221; she joked. &#8220;So, anyone who wants to get hair extensions should, for your health.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time Chenoweth has spoken out about being &#8220;scared&#8221; to sue CBS after the accident on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/kristin-chenoweth-suffers-head-injury-on-set-of-the-good-wife\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">set of &#8220;The Good Wife.&#8221;<\/a> The actress opened up about her story in the essay collection &#8220;My Moment: 106 Women on Fighting for Themselves&#8221; in 2022.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters?cmpid=fnfirstnl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was advised by a couple of folks on my team and outside of my team too that it would be unwise to attempt to hold CBS accountable for what was clearly their responsibility,&#8221; she wrote in her essay, according to an excerpt obtained by Marie Claire. &#8220;I was told that I&#8217;d never work again if I sued a major network. And that scared me. I let fear take over and did what so many people do \u2014 especially women \u2014 in the face of going up against someone or something more powerful than they are. I shrunk.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m telling my story about what happened, and I really don&#8217;t care if CBS never hires me again,&#8221; Chenoweth continued. &#8220;They knew I was hurt really badly, but they exploited the power they held over a person like me. I&#8217;m a working actor \u2014 keyword working.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Unfortunately, the powers that be at CBS at the time did not take responsibility for what happened to me, but there&#8217;s a new regime at the network, and they&#8217;re just lovely to work with. Leadership matters.
