Singer Miranda Cosgrove Injured in Bus Crash

All things considered, Miranda Cosgrove must be feeling pretty lucky.

The singer and star of the Nickelodeon show "iCarly" broke her ankle when her tour bus was involved in a car accident in Illinois. The incident occurred on I-70 just outside of Vandalia, Illinois. A representative for Cosgrove confirmed the injury and indicated there there were no other injured parties.

"There were five passengers on the bus, and Miranda suffered a broken ankle," the rep says. "At the time, we are told everyone will be fine."

The 18 year-old singer was forced to put a halt to her tour "until further notice." Her next date was to be in Wichita, Kansas this Friday.

TMZ is reporting that the tour bus struck a tractor-trailer that was already overturned and partially blocking one of the lanes on I-70.
