R+B star Brandy lost the will to live after the terrifying 2006 car crash that left another driver dead - admitting she felt "in limbo" after the accident.

The singer, full name Brandy Norwood, walked away from the California freeway collision, but 38-year-old Awatef Aboudihaj died from her injuries.

Brandy tells Vibe magazine she prayed every day after the accident, adding, "There was a point when I didn't feel like it was Ok to live on - because someone else lost their life.

"I really didn't know what to do. I was in limbo for a long time... I didn't go outside for months."

The Afrodisiac hitmaker was never charged with any wrongdoing in the crash, but Aboudihaj's family are pursuing a $50 million civil action for wrongful death against the star.

The trial is set for April 2009.
