BMX star and host of MTV’s The Challenge, T.J. Lavin, is in a medically induced coma and listed in critical condition after crashing his bike during a stunt at the Dew Tour Championship in Las Vegas last night.
When he hit the ramp he lost control of his bike and “slammed down onto the ground. Friends and crew workers immediately rushed to Lavin’s side, but he didn’t appear to be moving.”
He was then rushed to the University Medical Center and has been there since, TMZ claim that he also has some brain swelling.
Apparently there is a video floating around of the incident but YouTube keep removing them. Let’s hope he pulls through.

Michael Phelps got himself into a three-car accident in his hometown of Baltimore, Maryland, last night at around 9pm local time.
Police say that Phelps was left unscathed but a woman in the other car was shaken up and taken to the local hospital after complaining of head and arm pains.
Phelps was driving his Cadillac Escalade when he collided with a Honda Accord after someone ran a redlight, they then both hid a third car that was parked at the time.
Police also tell TMZ that alcohol was not a factor in the crash, they didn’t give him a field sobriety test because they felt it was unnecessary after interviewing him.
Phelps was apparently carrying two passengers, both who are said to have been unharmed in the accident.
How long until Michael Phelps has a lawsuit on his hands?

AnnaLynne McCord (I hate typing her name and I don’t know why) got herself into a little fender bender yesterday, she survived so don’t worry.
While she was driving down La Cienega in West Los Angeles, the 90210 actress somehow managed to smash her brand new Mini Cooper into the back of someones Range Rover.
The police came to the scene pretty much straight away to check on things, AnnaLynne was fine but her car was pretty much screwed in the front and then towed away from the spot.
As you would guess the paps were on the scene shooting videos and snapping pictures, she ended up screaming “do you guys mind” at them, of course they didn’t give a shit and kept on snapping pictures.
This isn’t half as exciting as the time Lindsay Lohan got herself in a car crash years ago, but AnnaLynne McCord involved in a car crash is pretty funny since her car was brand new.

Linda Hogan was involved in a car accident on Friday afternoon, the accident was only a small fender bender.
So what’s the point in posting this? Well it’s a slow day and most importantly it happened less than a quarter mile away from the location that her son, Nick Hogan, crashed his car back in 2007 – leaving his best friend in a coma and had Nick in jail.
According to reports the accident wasn’t really her fault and her car only suffered minor damages – the other car suffered most of the damages. Linda’s 19-year-old boyfriend Charley Hill was spotted at the scene soon after the crash.

Travis Barker is looking for justice.
In his first postcrash TV news interview, the musician tells E! News exclusively why he decided to file a lawsuit over the plane crash that killed four people and left Barker and DJ AM badly burned.

“I wouldn’t have been in the state I was in if I wasn’t in the crash. I wouldn’t have third-degree burns all over my body or be prohibited to do certain things. I can’t go swimming. I can’t do some of the things that normal people can do. I didn’t ask for that to happen.”
DJ AM, who is also continuing his recovery from the Sept. 19 incident, is not part of the lawsuit. Said Barker:
“I can’t speak for him—I think everyone just has different attorneys.”
The drummer says he doesn’t know if he’ll win his lawsuit.
“I don’t know. I just think positive. I mean, I think so—if something goes wrong that’s not supposed to go wrong or you fall victim of it, I think you should be compensated.”
He says he’s not just speaking for himself, either. “I lost two friends in the accident. Nothing can bring them back or what I lost in the accident.”
