Dazed Cheryl Cole and Will.i.am pictured with blood streaming from their noses in aftermath of late night car accident

Cheryl Cole and Will.i.am escaped from a car crash with minor injuries as they were left suffering with bloody noses and whiplash, last night.
The two singers were pictured with blood streaming from their noses and down over their mouths as they sat dazed in the car moments after the accident, in Los Angeles.
The crash occurred after they left a studio following a long 'day and night' of recording and it was Will.i.am who was behind the wheel of the £100,000 Cadillac that drove into a parked car at around 3.30am.
Unhurt: Cheryl Cole tweeted this picture of herself in Los Angeles last week; she and Will.i.am were left with whiplash but were otherwise unhurt following a car accident today
Cheryl wiped away tears as her passenger side airbag failed to open and she was thrown headfirst into the dashboard.
Eye-witnesses said that Will.i.am's airbag inflated and hit him in the face, which caused him to have a nose bleed, but Cheryl's injuries were slightly worse as she was left with bruising too.
After police were called out to the scene Will.i.am was taken to the nearby Cedars Sinai hospital where he emerged later wearing a neck-brace.
A spokesperson for Cheryl told the Mail Online: ''Cheryl is fine, she was shaken by the incident but is ok.'
A passerby told The Sun newspaper: 'Both seemed shaken but were checking each other over.'
Both Cheryl and Will were quick to assure fans they were fine. Will.i.am tweeted: 'Car accidents are not dope. I'm glad I'm OK.'

'We're fine,' he added. 'Cheryl Cole [and I] were coming back from the studio but she and I are fine... just a little wiplash [sic].'
Cheryl, who will be back working in London tomorrow as she comes back to promote her new single Under The Sun, added: 'Don't worry me and @iamwill are fine, promise.'
Meanwhile Black Eyed Peas star Will's manager Polo Molina reassured fans that the accident was 'minor'.
He wrote on Twitter: 'Just spoke to @iamwill, everything is OK. He and Cheryl Cole are both fine. It was a minor fender bender after a long day/night in the studio.'

Producer Michael Jurkovac tweeted the pair saying: 'Thank god neither of you got hurt. Worry about those all night studio sessions.'
It is unclear exactly how the accident took place.
Girls Aloud star Cheryl has only got a few weeks to go before the start of her first UK solo tour on October 3, so she has been working hard to ensure everything is perfect before she hits the stage.
Her trip to Los Angeles has seen her hitting the gym almost daily, while she has also been spending long hours in the studio.
Cheryl announced her tour dates in June shortly after she was criticised for her singing during the Queen's Jubilee concert.
In an interview shortly afterwards, she said: 'I am very aware of my ability, I know I’m no Mariah Carey but I think the emotion in the song is what matters.
'It's making people feel what you’re singing about.'
