Jeffree Star has been taken to the hospital after a “severe” car accident near Casper, Wyoming, according to a source close to him.
On Friday, April 16, the YouTube star confirmed on Twitter that he and his best friend, Daniel Lucas, were involved in a terrifying incident and are now receiving treatment at a local hospital.
In a tweet, the makeup artist wrote, “A few hours ago, Jeffree and Daniel were in a serious car accident, and the car flipped three times after hitting black ice.” “As soon as the doctor provides us with more information, we’ll keep you all informed. I’m thankful that they’re both alive.”
The tweet included a photo of Jeffree lying in a hospital bed with Daniel by his side. Jeffree Star Cosmetics owner Jeffree Star was seen wearing a neck brace.
Officers responded to a crash at 8:30 a.m., according to the Wyoming Highway Patrol. Jeffree was driving when he “lost traction and lost control,” veering off the highway and “overturning the vehicle,” according to reports.
Jeffree and Daniel were both wearing seatbelts and were taken to the hospital in an ambulance with unknown injuries, according to the Wyoming Highway Patrol.
Jeffree and Daniel teased an upcoming video about their friendship on Instagram Stories the day before the accident, describing it as “20 minutes of history, comedy, laughter, crying, pain, and, most importantly, inspiration.”

It’s unclear whether Jeffree and Daniel plan to share their video after the accident.
Last year, Jeffree purchased a $1.1 million home in Casper, along with 70 acres of land, with the intention of using the 6,000-square-foot home as a writing retreat. He is reportedly writing an autobiography, according to his Twitter bio.
Jeffree plans to do nothing with the 70-acre ranch. He clarified, “Instead, “I’m not doing anything with it other than staring at the beautiful scenery and taking in the scenery. My privacy is something I treasure.”
