Dancing with the Stars aired dramatic footage of contestant Elaine Hendrix getting carried off the ballroom floor on a stretcher Tuesday morning following an injury that hospitalized the actress and prevented her from performing in Tuesday night's Halloween episode. While Elaine, 54, remained at the hospital, DWTS aired video from Tuesday morning's rehearsal, during which Elaine is seen visibly in pain, stopping mid-dance.
"Elaine and I were dancing and all of a sudden, Elaine kind of froze and said she can't move and she can't breathe and something happened with her rib," said Elaine's pro dance partner, Alan Bersten. "She's in so much pain that I don't know if we're going to dance tonight. It's just a lot of unknowns. I just hope this isn't the end of Elaine's dream to dance again
