Ari Groover is going viral after her wig kept on rolling and rolled right off her head during her Tina Turner performance on Broadway.

Groover is an understudy for Tina: The Tina Turner Musical on Broadway and during her performance of Tina Turner’s iconic 1971 song, “Proud Mary” her wig flew off while hitting Tina’s signature dance moves.  When the wig flew, she quickly picked it up, threw it to the side, stayed in character, and continued to perform.
