<p>Chenoweth was speaking on Watch What Happens Live when she said, "I didn't do it out of fear and anxiety, so don't ever let fear rule your life. I have long-standing injuries from that.

<p>She described the moment of her injury by saying, "I heard, like, a flagpole sound. I literally heard, 'We're losing the light.' I heard, 'Action.' And I woke up at Bellevue [Hospital].

<p>In the 2022 essay collection My Moment: 106 Women on Fighting for Themselves (quoted by Marie Claire), Chenoweth revealed that she was afraid for jeopardising her career when she decided not to sue CBS. "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. I was told that I'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 — especially women — in the face of going up against someone or something more powerful than they are. I shrunk," she said.</p>
