Jewel Already Injured From Dancing With The Stars

The show hasn't even aired yet and Jewel has already injured herself in practice. She has announced that a case of tendinitis might force her out of Dancing WIth The Stars- but don't count her out yet.

The singer wrote on her blog:

“Yuck! It’s mainly my left knee, and I can’t believe I hurt it so badly. Ty warned me I was over doing it, and now he got a big ol’ ‘I told you so’ in.”

“It was just so fun to dance 8 hours a day—especially considering I only had 3 weeks to cram not only for my first dance—cha cha, but to learn the fundamentals of about 6 other dances that I will have to know,” Jewel wrote.

“But now I’m just worried I won’t even be able to dance! Hopefully these steroids will really do the trick and I can keep bad flare ups at a bay in the future.”

She was also ordered to stop rehearsals for a couple of days.

I have my first rehab appointment today, so I will see what that’s like. Hopefully it helps the pain

. Ty said ‘Slow and steady will win the race…’ sage advice, but my Russian partner and I have the same work ethic and our motto has been “ATTACK!!”
