DWTS’ Julianne Hough Scheduled for Surgery
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, News,
The curse of the parquet floor has struck again.
Despite being only halfway over, the seventh season of Dancing with the Stars has already seen more than its share of medical emergencies. So far this fall, we’ve seen Jeffrey Ross with an eye patch, Susan Lucci with an ankle wrap and Misty May-Treanor with a seat on the sidelines. Now one of the show’s professionals is going to be added to the injury list.
One week after being checked out for stomach issues, we’re learning the real reason behind Julianne Hough’s trip to the hospital. Although her evaluation was initially downplayed, it turns out the country singer - who was discovered to have endometriosis - will actually need to have her appendix removed.
Fortunately, the 20-year-old has a common medical condition that is found in 5-10% of women of reproductive age. Those diagnosed with endometriosis experience a development of uterine-lining tissue outside the uterus on the surfaces of organs in the pelvis or abdomen where they are not supposed to grow.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, The CW, Dancing With The Stars,
Last night on Dancing with the Stars, the viewers had a chance to say goodbye to an injured Misty May-Treanor. We also saw the nine remaining couples tackle the energetic Jive or the traditional Viennese Waltz.
By night’s end:
- Brooke received the first 10 of the whole season. (She earned a 28 for her Waltz.)
- Maurice and Warren both saw their best numbers thus far. (Greene a 24 for his Jive; Sapp a 25 for his Waltz.)
- Cloris officially became the last person still scoring in the teens. (She got another 16 for her Jive.)
- Susan, Rocco and Cloris remained the only three with an overall average under 20 points. (Lucci has a 19.75; DiSpirito is now at 20; Leachman is far behind at 15.75.)

Last week, eleven couples were vying for Dancing with the Stars’ mirror ball trophy. Seven days later, we were down to only nine.
Although she had planned to take on the jive tonight, an injury forced Olympic gold medalist Misty May-Treanor to suddenly leave the competition. You can see her explain the incident - and hear the injury happen - below.
So how did the remaining dancers fare in Week 3? You can find out after the jump.

Brooke Burke Confirms Misty May-Treanor’s Exit
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, Gossip, News,
Although we still haven’t heard official word from the producers, competitor Brooke Burke has confirmed Misty May-Treanor’s Dancing with the Stars exit.
Over this weekend, it was revealed the Olympic beach volleyball player had suffered some sort of injury. Despite reports that Misty would be needing surgery, the showrunners listed her status as To Be Determined. Now it appears the rumors were true.
Earlier this morning, Burke told an LA radio station that the gold medalist was indeed sidelined. “It’s such a sad situation. She did hurt her Achilles tendon. I don’t know if she tore it or ruptured it.”
Unfortunately, the athlete - who apparently heard a “pop” at the time of the injury - was simultaneously competing on the sand while she was competing on the dance floor. “The sad thing…this is her jumping mechanism. We’re all really concerned for her. She may be having surgery this week. We don’t know yet. It’s such a bummer,” Brooke added.
It’s unclear at this point what May-Treanor’s departure will mean for Tuesday’s elimination show. Expect to get a full report on tonight’s broadcast.

UPDATE: You can find new information on May-Treanor’s status here.
Maksim Chmerkovskiy‘s return to the ballroom has just been cut short.
According to Access Hollywood, Olympic volleyball player Misty May-Treanor has officially been sidelined from the Dancing with the Stars. The athlete apparently suffered an injury that will require surgery.
It’s unclear at this point whether the injury was a result of something she did on the dance floor or the volleyball court. The gold medalist had been simultaneously competing on the AVP volleyball tour while rehearsing for the reality show.

Last night, Dancing with the Stars premiered with its largest - and most interesting - cast so far. In addition to having the series’ youngest and oldest competitors to date, the seventh installment also boasts two Olympians and several interesting rivalries.
