Peter GabrielRocker Peter Gabriel is recovering after breaking his left leg while skiing in Switzerland. The former Genesis star is now "learning to hobble" around his home in Wiltshire, England after starting the year in hospital.

Speaking on his official website, the Sledgehammer singer says, "We went away for a family holiday and I was skiing... I was with a group of friends who tend to go at some speed... so I thought I'd get my skis out. I hit a rock and I could feel a loud snap as I broke my leg, and then I skied down to the piste, which was a bit stupid."

Showing off his cast from his home studio, Gabriel reveals, "I've been spending a lot of time in hospital... but I think it's all been put back together."

The rocker admits he's "frustrated" by his lack of movement, adding it has been 35 years since he broke his other leg after diving from a stage in Aylesbury, England.

But it's not all pain and frustration for the hitmaker - Gabriel was named Personality Of The Year by music industry market MIDEM for his music and human rights work on Monday.
