Osbourne Sprains Foot While Dancing

Osbourne had to dance the hustle barefoot after hurting her ankle during the paso doble.

Kelly Osbourne is the latest "Dancing With the Stars" contestant to prove that dancing can be dangerous.

While dancing the paso doble with partner Louis van Amstel on Monday night, a buckle hit Osbourne's foot, causing her distress and discomfort.

A rep confirmed to Access Hollywood that the incident did in fact result in a minor sprained ankle and contusion.

Fellow contestant Melissa Joan Hart also spoke with Access Hollywood about the effect the injury had on Osbourne.

"I was backstage doing the quick change for the hustle when she came back to do her quick change and she was pretty upset," Hart said. "It kept happening in rehearsal and stuff so I think they just went for it [on Monday]. She got hurt. Hopefully, she'll be able to recover, keep her foot up for a few days and be better for next week."

Nevertheless, Osbourne took the stage to participate in the group hustle, although she did dance barefoot due to the pain. In a later tweet, she seemed to be taking the setback well.

"Thank you so much for all the well wishes," she tweeted to fans. "It really hurts, but the good news is it's not broken. It is just gonna be a bit painful for a while."

According to her rep, Osbourne will be fit to dance next week.

On Tuesday's episode, the professional dancers will perform a tribute to Michael Jackson. Derek Hough will return for after having missed last week's rehearsals and Monday's dances because of the flu.
