Yesterday was a bad day for actors. Two big accidents.




Robert Downey Jr. had an accident on set that involved his ankle. It has stopped production for Iron Man 3. And Mayim Bialik (Blossom) was in a car accident.

Mayim Bialik: “In Pain But Will Keep All My Fingers” After Car Accident

Mayim Bialik was in a car accident on Wednesday afternoon in Los Angeles, sustaining minor injuries.

The “Blossom” star’s Volvo was reportedly struck by another vehicle at the corner of Hollywood Blvd. and La Brea, according to TMZ.
