Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea is best known for his powerful riffs and high-energy performances but even an icon like him has been carrying a deeply personal secret.
The ‘90s rock star surprised fans when he delivered a shocking confession during his guest appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
The 63-year-old musician stole the show the moment he entered the room, walking upside down, proving that there is no barrier to his legendary energy.
Looking dapper in his casual suit and sneakers, he revealed a recent head injury, which explained the bandage on his head.
“It was a bazaar peeing accident,” he said, adding that it was a radio show for Apple Music.
During the short break, he revealed that he only had three minutes for a personal break before the show went on air again.

However, because of the limited time he had to go to the bathroom, he went on a full sprint to the hallway and accidentally hit the door.
“Smack into the glass door, flat on my back, blood spurting out on my head,” he detailed. “I’m lying there and I’m going, ‘Oh man, I gotta do the Fallon show in a few days.’”
Instead of letting it shame him, he transformed embarrassment into an unexpected, powerful moment of honesty.
“But strangely enough, this is not my first peeing accident,” he admitted, adding, “I peed the bed till I was 11 or 12 years old. Caused me no shortage of embarrassment, but…I just wanna let you know all of you out there in TV land, all you bedwetters, I am one of you. You are not alone. I know what it's like to sleep over at someone’s house and you peed the bed and you wake up in a sea of urine.”
