Hiccups! How embarrassing!

Today I got the hiccups during High School Choir.
Fortunately I was playing the piano instead of teaching. But when I am teaching, and I get the hiccups while singing or doing breathing exercises with the class, it's pretty embarrassing! If I breathe with my mouth closed I'm fine, but opening my mouth makes a big HIC! And everyone laughs. (Me included.)
My worst experience of hiccups was when I was in first grade, my very first time to sing in the church children's choir. I was looking forward to it so much, and then I got the hiccups. We sang, "O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie (HIC!) Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by (HIC!) They were perfectly timed!
Have you ever been embarrassed by hiccups at the wrong time?

I don't remember experiencing hiccups at those times. I always thought we wouldn't get hiccups while we are singing. I wonder if there's really a way to get rid of hiccups easily, though I have heard a few ways to do so. Perhaps you can search online and hopefully you will find a way to help. I think I don't get hiccups always.
