Narrative:
We commenced boarding our flight as scheduled and after approximately 30 passenger were on; we suddenly were exposed to toxic fumes/gasesecond officerdors and heavy mist/smoke poured through all the vents and overhead ceilings. We did deplane all passenger and later reboarded everyone and continued our flight to seattle as scheduled. With all that happened; I as the 'a' flight attendant forgot to make my boarding announcements. The aft crew did make those announcements on my behalf. After the door closed and we pushed back; we (including myself) followed exactly to what is required of us and stated in the manual. I did make the demonstration announcement.
