Tony Dovolani Laments Melissa Rycroft Injury
by Hilton Hater at .Due to a fractured rib, Melissa Rycroft did not participate on Dancing with the Stars last night.
While viewers were crushed to find this out when they tuned to ABC at 8 p.m., no one was more distraught over the injury than Rycroft's partner, Tony Dovolani.
"Up until a half hour before the show, she was still trying to dance for me and she was in complete pain," Dovolani told Us Weekly after the performance show. "She has a high threshold for pain - and she still came onstage and tried to dance for me and that says a lot about her."
Minus Melissa Rycroft, last night's edition of Dancing with the Stars was less beautiful than usual.
Approximately 15 seconds into their Jive, Dovolani said: "She couldn't breathe. So I picked her up, as I would pick up my own daughter. I brought her backstage and tried to calm her down and help her rest.
"I have to tell you. I don't think any other celebrity would have done that - she still tried to dance. That says a lot about a person."
It sure does. Send in your best wishes for Melissa right now. Let her know fans are hoping for a fast, full recovery!
