“Gangnam Style” rapper Psy escaped injury when his red Rolls Royce and a bus collided Thursday in Guangzhou, China.
No one else was seriously injured, reports said, but the car’s front bumper and the side of the bus were damaged, media reports said Friday.
Psy, 38, was in the car with his manager and a local employee when the crash happened. He was travelling to Hangzhou for the launch party of a bar.
Psy left the scene in a police car that was accompanying him.
The rapper rose to international fame with his 2012 sensational single “Gangnam Style.” His following singles, “Hangover” and “Gentleman,” also received positive responses, though they did not fare nearly as well as “Gangnam Style.”
According to reports, Psy will leave Guangzhou for Beijing Friday.
