Dancing With The Stars Season 8
RealityFreakWill:
I'm sure it will get leaked out before Monday who the replacements are and as far as I know, it has been rumored for the past week that Holly Madison is replacing Jewel. Haven't heard anything on who will replace Nancy.
I do agree it's cursed already and wouldn't be surprised if there will be more injuries as the season progresses.
Of course I'll post any updates as soon I find them.

Jewel Heartbroken over 'Dancing' Departure
Music star Jewel announced on Thursday that she would not be competing on this season of "Dancing With the Stars" due to injuries -- and now the singer expresses her devastation about leaving the show.
"Shock does not begin to describe it," Jewel says on her blog. "I am heartbroken to say I will not be competing in this season of 'Dancing With the Stars'. I'm sad I won't get to go through the rest of the experience competing with my husband, Ty [Murray]. I don't really know what to say. I am sad and mad and disappointed and just blown away at all that has happened.
"This wasn't the way I wanted to go, but my health must come first," the singer says. "And so it is with regret I will not be able to compete this season, but I will be there to cheer my husband on every step of the way- he will just have to dance for the both of us now!"

ET Joins Steve Wozniak & Karina Smirnoff's 'Dancing with the Stars' Rehearsal
ET is behind the scenes when "Dancing with the Stars" professional dancer Karina Smirnoff teaches Apple founder Steve Wozniak some smooth moves.
"It is a lot of fun," Steve, aka "The Woz," tells ET. "I just love all the fast dancing."
Steve and Karina's first two dances will be the cha cha for the premiere, followed by the quickstep on week two, and Karina says, "He is fast. You wouldn't expect Steve to be quick on his feet, but he is really quick."
Steve, who rides a Segway to help keep the planet green, and Karina reveal that she is helping him understand some dance moves by associating them with learning to drive a Segway.
"I am always focused on one thing and I forget the others around it until I have done it a number of times," Steve says about learning the dances.
The two, who at first glance might seem an unlikely pair, are having a great time together. So much so that they have nicknames for each other. Steve calls Karina "The Hurricane," while she calls him "The Flame."
Karina also reveals that rehearsals -- she and Steve are going at it six to eight hours a day -- have left her little time for preparations for her upcoming wedding to Maksim Chmerkovskiy.
But she has narrowed down her choice of wedding dress to three or four. "I know what I don't want," she says.
She also has no concerns that Maks is partnered with Denise Richards this season. She says, "She is definitely hot, but she is a wonderful girl."
One advantage that Steve and Karina may have for the competition is that a friend of Steve's is writing a computer program that will be sold in Apple I-Store to make it easier to vote for him.
As he jokes, "There is only room for one Steve in this competition," referring to the fact that Steve-O is also be competing.

Karina Smirnoff on Maksim's 'DWTS' Partner Denise Richards
ET was on the set of OK! Magazine's sexy new photo shoot with "Dancing With The Stars"' hot, engaged couple -- Karina Smirnoff and Maksim Chmerkovskiy. And Karina tells us how she feels about Maksim's celeb dancing partner, Denise Richards.
"Denise is so determined to do well in this competition. She's working hard, they've been rehearsing all day long, and they look really great together. I'm rooting for them."
When asked if he is concerned about rumors that may arise about the sexy routines Maksim will perform with Denise, he said:
"We went into this knowing it's gonna happen and it's gonna follow us," he said.
"It's like damned if you do, damned if you don't. We're gonna dance a sexy rumba, everybody's gonna start talking. We won't, and people are gonna say we did a bad rumba."
Karina is partnered up with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak -- and the couple jokingly said Maksim is jealous of Steve.
