What Is Up With DWTS?

by Rachelle Thomas

This season of Dancing With The Stars has been interesting to say the least and I am not just talking about the dancing. I am talking about the behind scenes illness and drops outs and injury. Lets begin with Misty May Treanor having to drop out of the competition due to an injury to her achilles tendon. I felt so bad for her when she had to drop out, more so because I hope that the injury doesn’t hurt her volleyball career. Little did we all know that was going to be just the beginning of all the DWTS illness/injury drama. Then Brooke Burke hurt her ankle, luckily it wasn’t too bad and she somehow managed to still dance on it. What a trooper that woman is, you could tell in the rehearsals she was in pain. Way to go Brooke. Now it has been released the Julianne Hough has endometriosis and has undergone laparoscopic surgery. Apparently she had surgery and it has gone well. Word is that she hopes to only miss a week of Dancing With The Stars. That girl rocks. Talk about devotion to only try and miss a week, wow I couldn’t do that. Soon after Julianne fell ill, it was released that Lacey Schwimmer also had endometriosis. Fortunately Lacey will be able to take medication for the condition and avoid surgery so far. Wow that is a lot of stuff happening. It is almost like DWTS is cursed or something this season. If it isn’t one thing it is another. I feel so bad for this cast. I hope for a speedy recovery for all involved. And I sincerely hope that nothing else happens on this season.
What are you thoughts on these DWTS drama?

    There has been a lot of talk that Cody might get the boot tonight since Julianne is not going to be his partner. This season has had the most injury that I can remember. I hope that no one else gets hurt! Everyone should check out the DWTS LiveJournal page. It is at: http://dancingstarsabc.livejournal.com
    It has recaps, editorial, and great videos! I love DWTS!
