'Dancing with the Stars' Mishaps
Kirstie Alley isn't the only "Dancing with the Stars" contestant having trouble this season. Two pros had to recover from mishaps on Monday: Karina Smirnoff and Mark Ballas.
"I just want to say that I am so grateful because when I fell and then I kind of saw your face I was in so much panic I did not know where I was," Karina told her celebrity dance partner Ralph Macchio after her spill during their paso doble. "And you kind of brought me back to the dance and he totally made it happen."
While Karina's blunder took place during her live performance, Mark's happened behind the scenes at dress rehearsal, twisting his ankle before the show.
"It felt okay and [I] put some ice on it," Mark responded when asked about the decision he made to carry on with the performance. "And I felt like it'd be fair for Chelsea [Kane] to have her turn. She had a great routine and I wanted to do it for her."
In spite of their accidents, both "Dancing" couples won favorable scores. Ralph and Karina were awarded a 24 while Chelsea and Mark snagged a 28. Tune in for an all-new "Dancing with the Stars" Tuesday on ABC.
