Red face The 777 losing a fan blade inflight

I have heard from a source that if one of the 777's twin engines were to throw a fan blade inflight the engine would become unbalanced and produce vibrations that could cause a loss of stability. Is this true and has the 777 been tested for this?
Thanks
