One Direction and Aston JLS have been involved in some accidents

Following in the plaster­cast footsteps of Jessie J, it seems that Jason Derulo isn't the only popstar who is having an accident prone 2012.

JLS' 4th Dimension tour may be dis­ap­point­ingly light on backflip action as Aston Merrygold is returning from his Dubai holiday with a torn knee ligament. Aston tweeted: "Physio for me knee it is then! And with tour round the corner! Dooooh!! Good start 2012!! Lol Axx". (Cheers Aston.)

Meanwhile, One Direction have been treated for whiplash by emergency services after their tourbus was hit from behind by another vehicle. The 30mph crash occured on Wednesday night en route to Birmingham's NIA where the band were per­form­ing. The Sun report that "yesterday they were seen by an osteopath who gave them the all-clear".

Niall tweeted reas­sur­ingly: "Thanks for all you messages. We were involved in a really minor accident — we are all abso­lutely fine!"
