Star veered off a slushy road in the Casper area April 16 and overturned his Rolls Royce, according to the Wyoming Highway Patrol.
A friend, Daniel Lucas, also was in the car. Both were taken to Wyoming Medical Center in Casper with undisclosed injuries.
A photo of the two was posted to Star’s Twitter account with the tweet: “A few hours ago Jeffree and Daniel were in a severe car accident and the car flipped 3 times after hitting black ice [broken heart emoji.] We will update you all when the doctor gives us more info. So thankful they are both alive.”

This was hard but I had to go see my car today. Thank God a #RollsRoyce is built with highly reinforced steel because it saved our lives 🙏🏻 Time to heal and let my body repair. pic.twitter.com/5YY5CVpl1V

Star is best known for his cosmetics business. He has been splitting time between California and his small ranch near Casper since December, the Casper Star-Tribune reported.
Since moving to Wyoming, Star has said he plans to employ locals at a warehouse for his company, Jeffree Star Cosmetics.
He has drawn attention for using racist language and more recently has posed with a Confederate flag and promoted self-harm, prompting him to apologize.
