Tyler's Daughter: 'Dad Is Recovering'

The Rush Hour 3 actress has issued a light-hearted statement explaining her clumsy rocker dad was hurt after he "walked the wrong way", referring to his tumble during a show in South Dakota on Wednesday (05Aug09).

But she insists the 61 year old is still alive and well - and intends to continue touring.

She tells TMZ.com, "The demon of screamin (sic) is not dead. Yes, it's true my dad walked the wrong way and landed on his head. He broke his left shoulder and had to get a few stitches on his noggin (head).

"He is now at home resting and will be back on his feet just as soon as he can to rock the world once more."

The band's guitarist Joe Perry recently hinted the Walk This Way hitmakers' current tour could be cancelled to allow the frontman time to recover.
