What is it with heartthrobs and motorcycles?
Last week, George Clooney made headlines when he was involved in a motorcycle accident. This week, the buzz is about Keith Urban, who got into a motorcycle accident in Australia while being followed by a photographer.
"Today's incident was the result of one person's desire to do his job and my desire to maintain my privacy," Nicole Kidman's husband said through his U.S. publicist. "Some have already attempted to inflate the facts, but the reality is this: While out riding to an AA meeting, a time when my privacy is especially important to me, I felt myself being pursued. I sped up, and, in an effort to elude an oncoming car which was making an illegal u-turn, saw no choice but to drop my bike. In actual fact, my pursuer came to my assistance, without taking photos, and helped me from the road. I returned home, got my car and continued on my way."
Y'all know things happen in threes, so I'm wondering who's next? Hollywooders had best not forget their helmets next time they saddle up on a hog. Better yet, I suggest they drive not ride.
