When You're a Star, Even the Car Hitting You Is a Ferrari, Adam Levine Proves

Hollywood stars and all kinds of well-known artists do their best to try and stay out of the media's attention, but no matter how hard you want to hide, the attention sometimes finds you.
In the case of Adam Levine and his pregnant wife, Behati Prinsloo, the attention came in the form of a Ferrari 458 Italia. And in the color of high visibility jackets - a fluorescent yellowy lime green you normally only see on running shoes. The couple - he is the lead singer of the Maroon 5 band and a known womanizer, in case you thought he seemed familiar, while she is a Victoria's Secret Angel - was leaving a sushi restaurant in Malibu (totally pointless information, we know, but since we have it, we'll pass it on) in their black Tesla Model X electric SUV.

The impossible to miss Ferrari snuck up behind them and, probably due to the lack of visibility caused by the height difference and the Ferrari driver not allowing enough lead, failing to brake in time, it hit Adam Levine's car in the rear. Of course, when two rare and expensive cars like these are involved in an accident, a crowd immediately forms. It doesn't matter they were in Malibu, it's still an event. Besides, you never know who's going to climb out of the tinted-windowed vehicles.

And the people were not disappointed, since Adam Levine circled his car to evaluate the damages, so there was plenty of time for the fans to get a good look. The entertainment website Just Jared was the first to report the story, and it says the two cars rolled away perfectly fine, with only minor scratches that will be sorted out without much fuss.

It seems like yesterday was not a good day for Teslas, as another car - a Model S this time - was involved in a much more serious accident in Luxembourg. The electric sedan overlapped head-on with a compact car, causing extensive damage to both vehicles and setting the traditionally-powered one on fire.
