So here’s some good news and some bad news: James Blunt was in a car accident last week, but he managed to escape without having his throat so badly smashed up that he had to quit music forever – which part is the good news is up to you.

In actual fact James Blunt managed to escape the car accident without any injuries whatsoever, which is more than we can say for the poor bloke who claims he had his foot crushed by James Blunt’s car. James Blunt is now under investigation by the LAPD, which is classing the incident as a ‘hit and run’. Still, given the choice of having a two-ton SUV driven over your foot or hearing James Blunt sing even one note of any of his terrible songs, we know which one we’d chose.
