Nightmare for Grammy Award winner Shania Twain: After a serious tour bus accident, 13 of her crew members had to be hospitalized.
The Canadian singer Shania Twain (58, “You’re still the one”) has been touring North America with her “Queen Of Me Tour” since April. Yesterday, Wednesday, on the way to the final concerts in their homeland, one of their tour buses got into a serious accident in which a total of 13 people were injured. However, the singer herself was not involved in the horror crash.
, the accident tragedy probably occurred due to bad weather conditions. In a statement, Shania Twain’s management confirmed the incident and provided more detailed information about what happened. It says: “A crew bus and a truck from the Shania Twain – ‘Queen Of Me’ tour were involved in a highway accident on the route between Winnipeg and Saskatoon.”
Horror crash in snow and ice
Fortunately, the singer was not in one of the vehicles, but numerous members of the production team were taken to nearby hospitals. According to local police authorities, the affected crew bus skidded due to snow and ice on the road and overturned. A total of 13 people are currently receiving medical treatment in a “non-life-threatening condition”.
The further course of the tour is still unclear
The statement from Twain’s management concluded: “We are incredibly grateful to emergency responders for their quick response and continued support. We ask for your patience as we care for our tour family.”
It is still unclear to what extent the rest of their tour will be affected by this accident drama. According to the tour plan, a concert is scheduled for this Thursday in the Canadian city of Saskatoon, and the last show for 2023 is scheduled to take place in Vancouver on November 14th.
