Last season it was Cristian De La Fuente's arm injury, then this season saw Misty May-Treanor's Achilles tendon take her out, and now Brooke Burke has injured her foot on the competitive dance reality series,"Dancing With The Stars."

"Dancing With the Stars" front-runner Brooke Burke went to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center today after injuring her foot while rehearsing the jitterbug with partner Derek Hough on Sunday, according to ABC publicity.
The dancer allegedly landed hard on her right foot while performing a front flip. People reports that the dancer applied ice to the injury, but then visited the hospital Monday morning, where X-rays revealed a severe contusion.
ABC claims Burke is ready to dance tonight.
Lots of injuries this season, as comedian Jeff Ross suffered a scratched cornea, Karina Smirnoff wrenched her ankle, and Misty May-Treanor had to drop out of the competition after rupturing her Achilles tendon.
Like De La Fuente, last season saw Derek Hough injure his neck in practice and he was rushed to the ER by ambulance Oct. 4 after rehearsing, tripping and hitting his head.
