Alex Wong Snapped the Tendon in His Other Leg! No SYTYCD All Stars For Him!

Oh No! Nigel Lythgoe told the crew at Good Day LA today that Alex Wong who spent a year recovering from a broken tendon has snapped the tendon in his OTHER LEG! It happened on Saturday at an audition. He was all set to join the SYTYCD All-stars, but of course that’s not going to happen now. Dude has the worst luck!

Nigel confirmed to TV Guide that DWTS pro and SYTYCD alum Chelsie Hightower will join the All Stars, but Chelsie tweets that due to her DWTS contract, she’ll only appear once. “Very excited none the less!” she says.
