ACCIDENT IN MOSCOW - OFFICIAL STATEMENT - Please Read...
Recovering after on-stage accident...
Róisín Murphy suffered a nasty injury on stage on Saturday night (27th October) at Moscow's Ikra Club. Whilst performing the track 'Primitive' from her hugely acclaimed new album 'Overpowered' she hit her head on a chair and severely damaged her eye socket.
She left the stage immediately and was raced straight to a Russian hospital for emergency treatment and was then flown back to the UK early on Sunday morning. Last night she had an operation under general anaesthetic to repair the damage to her eye socket and eyebrow. Fortunately, despite serious concussion and losing a lot of blood, her vision is unimpaired.
Róisín is now recovering well but her European tour dates have been cancelled for at least the next seven days as have all promotional commitments.
It is hoped that Róisín will return to the stage within a week's time but she is under doctor's orders to rest until fully recovered so the recovery time may need to be extended. However her UK and Irish tour dates starting on 26th November should be unaffected.
The cancelled tour dates will be rescheduled for later in the year. Please check the tour schedule on the main page for further details of rescheduled shows.
Thanks. x
Who?
Singer from Moloko.
and not dead so a redundant thread
it doesn't say dead
just a bad accident
what a nasty subject title. damn you smart arses with your ''injured/dead'' bollocks.
...and only tinyman gets it!
boom tish
Ohyeah, Tupelo, next time someone makes a joke, look up and you might catch it going over your heads.
Well, one can lead to the other, but not usually dead to just injured...
Hope she's okay.
I get it.
So I should've started a thread saying ''Rosin Murphy perfectly healthy''?
She'll be fine. She's had surgery and Dr's say she'll recovery with no loss of vision.
Also, haven't you ever heard of zombies?
maybe next time we can try
Roisin Murphy bitten by zombie
now roaming the earth undead.
Hmmm, so you now think you can start another MnN trend by being quirky about actual injuries by stating the extreme opposite . . . hmmm, not as witty as the Injured threads. Sorry.
Tasteless FYA
The way round it is to have the title
Rosin Murphy Injured (but not 'injured')
cool down
so i missed the joke. it was a dumb joke anyways.
I prefer my way.
thankfully i don't spend as much time on here anymore to get moronic jokes.
Or Roisin Murphy Kills Good Music With Her Dirty Mowf.
the power of 666 said 42 seconds ago: Or Roisin Murphy Kills Good Music With Her Dirty Mowf.
NOT FAIR! Ruby Blue was a great album! and she still has a great voice, even if the new record is a bit by-the-numbers disco pop.
thread title made my heart skip a beat. :(
the other guy from wham's joke, injured.
On top of all this, I SPELLED HER FUCKING NAME WRONG.
Lame joke.. I'm glad she's orright.
i think the whole ''injured'' thing ain't that funny any more
injured, injured
It was funny until anon's ''Bridge injured'' thread. Then it wasn't funny.
LOLs at TheOtherGuyFromWham...
it's not a horrible joke, i think the other guy from wham just underestimated the latent admiration for roisin murphy in this board. if not for her music, at the very least we love her dance moves and her wild fashion sense. sequined red mirrorball jump suit. we need more people in the dull music business with a fashion sense like hers. cue someone link the cover of her latest record...
hmm
tinyman = Roisin Murphy
Hey, nobody loves Roisin like me!
I think in the light of events that have hit users of this forum, that the joke is badly in need of misfiring, and causing unintended hurt.
Maybe the joke has run its course.
Hott:
Still hott (10 years later):
damn, can't find the red jumpsuit pic from the Flipside.
she stayed at my house once...beautiful person, great artist, i agree that its not very cool saying she's ''dead'' (unless i'm missing some in joke)...
Yes, you are missing an in-joke.
A pretty shit one. I hate this thread.
delete this thread.
