Last night we learned that yet another incident occurred on the “Dancing With The Stars” set. Julianne Hough was taken to the hospital after complaining of stomach problems. Brooke Burke just hurt her foot while rehearsing on Sunday.
Some would say it’s just a physically demanding show where amateurs are taking on dancing challenges they have never done before - so, injuries are bound to happen. Others are saying the stage is “cursed.”
Two weeks ago I posted, in my blog, my research about CBS Television City where the show is taped. The lot used to be occupied by a place called Gilmore Stadium, which was used as a football field and a racetrack. Five racecar drivers died on the racetrack in its 18-year history. Prior to that, it was an oil field. This so called “curse” began in season five when Helio Castroneves, the racecar driver, first joined the show. So, I wanted to investigate this and see if maybe there actually was a connection.

Ever since Marie Osmond fainted last October on “Dancing With the Stars” it seems some type of negative energy has taken over Stage 46 at CBS Television City. Food poisonings, injuries, surgeries, blackouts are all becoming common place on the set. Even the show could not ignore what many people are calling a “Dancing” curse.
In a taped segment last night the show pointed out the spot on the floor, near the judges, which pro dancer Derek Hough has dubbed the Bermuda Triangle. It’s where he was injured; Misty May-Treanor tore her Achilles tendon leading to her exit from the show and it’s also where Susan Lucci twisted her ankle.
But, now Access has uncovered the very interesting history about what used to sit on this studio lot — you’ll be surprised to find out!

NEW YORk, New York --
Monica Seles has one word of advice for the new contestants of “Dancing With The Stars” — well, one word, repeated thrice — practice, practice, practice.
“Oh boy, be ready for lots of practice,” she told Access Hollywood at the “Entourage” season five premiere in New York on Wednesday night. “And [a] crazy schedule. I was only on there for two weeks, so I really didn’t get to experience the whole show, but even the little that I was on, it’s a lot of work.”
