Fabian in car wreck.......wait, who?


The nation was shocked this past weekend to learn that Fabian is indeed alive. The 64-year old former teen idol was not only alive, but still performing at the Spotlight Casino along with former teen idols Frankie Avalon and Lou Christie (who were also thought to have been long since dead).

The 64-year-old singer was riding with his manager and daughter near Palm Desert on Friday night when a car sideswiped their vehicle, which then rolled several times, Fabian's spokesman Steve Moyer said.

After suffering minor lacerations to his head, Fabian, ever the showman, insisted the "show must go on". "It's a miracle that we survived that accident," Fabian said in a statement. "Except for being sore, I thought I could do the show. I didn't want to disappoint the audience."

Disappoint, he did not. After subtle, yet elegant, renditions of "Turn Me Loose" and "Tiger", he lost his balance and fell off the stage.

Who said you can't take pleasure in other people's pain?
