Audience 'horrified' as Janey Godley nearly 'chokes to death' in Glasgow show

JANEY Godley revealed that her daughter was forced to come on stage to help her after she began 'choking' during her Glasgow show. 

The 62-year-old's was performing at the SEC on Sunday night when she took a sip of water and began choking.

Her reaction was so severe that she said the audience became worried and her daughter, Ashley Storrie, ran on stage to help.

Janey tweeted: "Literally choked on water onstage and thought I was going to die - audience were absolutely horrified and equally worried - I couldn’t breathe and then Ashley ran on and banged my back and I got back on track so sorry I scared everyone."

Ashley added: "Mum nearly choked to death on a sip of water, on stage, in front of thousands of people, I had to pat her back, ascertain if she was dying and also take the mic and do funny bits while she learned to breathe again. I’m a f****** wreck."

Janey's next performance for the Not Dead Yet tour will be at London's Leicester Square Theatre on March 16.
