Her introduction on the show was a disaster however and one that she remembered all too well as she recalled it in her 1996 book "As I Am": "When the floor manager missed my cue I stressed out going up the stairs and got there too soon. Quickly I took a step back so as not to be seen. But there was nothing there! I fell backwards headlong into a hole in the specially-built stairs. I lay there, unable to get up while I listened to the live announcement".
Although you can't tell from her appearance she was hurt both physically and emotionally. To make matters worse, this was the promotional trip that she made by coach across northern Europe which resulted in the coach crash en route back home in southern Sweden.
