New Kids On The Block singer Donnie Wahlberg has revealed he nearly died in a car accident, because he fell asleep while driving.
The incident occurred last week, as the band's comeback shows are taking their toll on the tired pop star.
"I nearly crashed my car last week after the show," Wahlberg tells the Daily Star. "I was driving from San Diego to Los Angeles and I had been on the road for three hours. I was so tired that my eyes kept closing."
"Then I fell asleep at the wheel and it was raining. I was like, 'Whoa', and I have been quiet ever since. I'm so tired."
The hectic touring and promotion is also affecting fellow New Kids band mate Jordan Knight, who adds: "We have got masseuses as you have got to take care of yourselves!"
