Apple Watts, a cast member of Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood, has been hospitalized after sustaining “major injuries” in a car accident, Deadline reports.
Watts, who appeared in the fifth and sixth season of the hit VH1 series, was involved early Wednesday morning in a crash after her black Mercedes and a Ford F250 pickup collided on I-15 between Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
The Los Angeles native’s vehicle flipped several times before bursting into flames. Watts was then pulled to safety by a passenger in the pickup truck. She was subsequently airlifted to Las Vegas’ University Medical Center.
According to Shade Room, Watts’ sister said that she is “unresponsive at the moment,” with injuries that include a “fractured skull, a broken spine, and a shattered arm.”
Law enforcement is investigating the accident and do not think that drugs or alcohol played a role in the vehicles colliding.
Watts appeared in Seasons 5 and 6 of Love & Hip Hop, which chronicled her journey from working as a stripper en route to her attempt at breaking into the music business. Prior to starring on the VH1 series, Watts made a name for herself by making cameos in music videos for Future, Ty Dolla $ign, Snoop Dogg, and YG.
