Tori Amos Injured When Her Tour Bus Almost Hit a Moose
Tori Amos sustained unusual injuries last night when her tour bus nearly hit a moose.
Amos, 62, a beloved pianist and singer-songwriter known for songs like "Cornflake Girl" and "Silent All These Years," took to Instagram to share that she was left injured when her tour bus was driving through from Copenhagen to Stockholm and nearly came in contact with a 1500-pound moose that measured 6 feet tall. Luckily, her driver managed to avoid hitting the animal.
"Unfortunately, yours truly happened to have just stood up to head to my bunk when the Moose appeared… and I was thrown against the ledge in the bus lounge, resulting in me slamming the side of my face. (yes that's gonna leave a mark)," Amos wrote on Instagram, accompanied by a photo of a moose in the wild.
The singer went on to joke that her facial injuries make her look like she was in the fighting ring.
"So for the next week or so if it looks like I have gone a few rounds with Ronda Rousey, now you will know why… shows will go on as normal…" the star captioned the post.
Amos Was Previously Injured on Tour
This isn't the singer's first injury while touring. In 2023, she revealed on Instagram that she suffered a broken fibula and a torn ankle tendon after tripping on her own high heel tassel.
"So I have been a bit of a ding bell and tripped on my ever so fashionable high heel tassels that unraveled in Charlotte," she wrote on Instagram. "I went to the good sports Doctors of New York yesterday and they have informed me that I have a broken fibula and a torn ankle tendon."
However, that injury didn't stop Amos from her touring schedule. Instead, she kept going while wearing a boot during the day.
"I now have a lovely boot which I am wearing during the day, but no fear I will be at the piano as usual for the rest of the tour," Amos said. "I may just be moving a little slower to and from the Bose and will probably need those silver foxes to lend a hand…"
