Calvin Harris Involved in Serious Car Accident, Cancels Show

Calvin Harris was involved in a serious car accident late last night and was rushed to the hospital, according to a new report by TMZ.



The DJ suffered a severe laceration to the face that was treated at an LA-area hospital.


The incident occurred when a Volkswagen Bug filled with teenagers crossed over the center divider, crashing into the Cadillac SUV Harris was traveling in.


The collision was so intense that a female passenger in the VW was ejected from the car and suffered a broken pelvis.


It is unknown if there were any other injuries as a result of the crash.


After being treated, Harris was released from the hospital, but against doctors’ advisement.


He had reportedly requested a private room at the facility, but left when he learned one was not available.


The “Feel So Close” DJ was forced to cancel a show this weekend at the Omnia nightclub in Las Vegas.


A statement on his Facebook page read:


“Adam’s [Harris’ real first name] transport was involved in a collision this evening on the way to the airport.


“As a result he will be unable to perform at Omnia tonight.


“He has been examined by doctors and told to rest for a few days.”


Fans chimed in with their well-wishes, including one user who wrote, “Wishing you a SWIFT recovery,” referring to his girlfriend Taylor Swift, with whom he celebrated a one-year anniversary of dating in March.


Swift has not yet commented publicly about Harris’ setback, but we imagine she’s concerned.


The couple have become a serious item, exemplified by Swift when she gushed over him in her acceptance speech at the iHeartRadio Awards.


“For the first time I had the most amazing person to come home to when the crowds were all gone and the spotlight went out so I’d like to thank my boyfriend Adam for that,” Swift told fans.


We’re hoping Harris has an, ahem, speedy (and Swift) recovery.
