I used to work for an oldies band. Fair season was always a challenge. The singer got quite a few bugs down over the years.

Happened one time to an older Judy Garland in the middle of a song. She spit it out and kept singing without missing a beat. There are “pros” and then there are “pro’s pros”.

Lou Rawls choked on his spit during the Grammys and recovered to a standing ovation. A real pro of pros...

In The Story of the Trapp Family Singers, Maria von Trapp tells in their early days of touring the US singing she felt something was missing--they weren't quite connecting with their audiences. One night during the show she swallowed a fly and then told the people what had happened. That "broke the ice" and afterwards they felt a greater rapport with the audience.
