What started off as a simple desire for dip ended up with an ambulance and stitches for Carly Pearce in a whole ranch dressing debarkle.
The situation started as country singer Carly Pearce tried to open up a ranch dressing. It was in a glass bottle, and as she twisted off the top, a bit chipped off. She slipped and cut her finger in the process. Posting a TikTok after the event, she explained what happened.
When she noticed the cut was a little deeper than expected, she went to her on-set paramedics. Pearce had just finished a show in Holmdel, NJ, so there was plenty of medical help around. “All of a sudden, I thought that ketchup was running down my hand, and it actually was blood,” the country singer said of her ranch bottle wound. “We had a few paramedics on-site at the show, so we decided just to have a look at it, and they told me I needed a few stitches.”
Rather than be taken to the local hospital in a friend’s car, an ambulance was called. All of a sudden, the small ranch bottle cut was becoming a whole drama for country singer Pearce.
Seriously Saucy Situation
She had no idea an ambulance would be necessary. What started as a small cut from the broken ranch bottle was quickly escalating. To make matters worse, she had to be strapped down in the ambulance.

“What I didn’t know was that the ride to the ER would be in an ambulance, and it’s policy that the patient has to sit on the stretcher and be strapped in.” She had an X-ray and a few stitches in her thumb and was sent home.
But now, with stitches and the healing ranch bottle wound, Pearce is having to adjust. “I’m kind of figuring out how to do things, not the way that I would,” Pearce said, speaking to the camera. “My assistant almost had to shave my left armpit because I didn’t think I could reach it.”
The whole situation seems a little overboard for a small cut. But, at least she didn’t lose a thumb.
