Jewel and Nancy O’Dell are injured and have to quit Dancing With the Stars, even before it begins! Rumors were swirling that Jewel was trying to make a comeback, but she can’t do it. Holly Madison will replace one of them, but who is the other replacement?
More pictures after the x-rays…
Jewel had not one, but TWO broken bones! Doctors discovered this on her x-rays and said she had to quit. This is what Jewel says in her blog:
Well, as many of you know I have been having trouble with my knees after rehearsing long hours for Dancing With The Stars. The doctors thought I had tendonitis, but when I wasn’t feeling better after some rest, I decided to get an MRI. When I heard the results I was in utter disbelief. The doctors told me that not one, but both of my legs were fractured!! He said my left one was particularly bad, and that I had to not only stop dancing, but stop walking and use crutches!!! He said I had just over done it with the rehearsals and training over the past few weeks and so my muscles became fatigued and transferred the overload of stress to the bones in my leg – causing the stress fractures!
Ouch! And Nancy tore her meniscus and needs surgery now to repair it. Double ouch. So, Jewel and Nancy out, Holly and ??? in. Who do you think the second replacement will be?
