Oh no! Dancing with the Stars 19 semi-finalist, Alfonso Ribeiro and his pro partner, Witney Carson, MAY have to drop out of the competition after he injured his back in rehearsal Wednesday nigh, reports TMZ. He’s STILL recovering from the groin injury caused by his enthusiastic recreation of his signature, Carlton Dance a few weeks ago. Alfonso co-starred on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air back in the 90s.
Alfonso Ribeiro — the front-runner on “Dancing with the Stars” — may have to pull out of the competition days before the semifinals … and it’s all because of The Carlton Dance.
Our DWTS sources say Ribeiro injured his back during rehearsal Wednesday night as he tried to overcompensate for a groin injury which he suffered on the show, performing his signature move.
The back injury is bad — he’s having trouble even walking. Alfonso skipped rehearsals Thursday so he could get an MRI.
Doctors are telling him the next 48 hours are critical, but they say there’s a real chance he can’t dance.
We’ll find out if Alfonso can dance when Dancing with the Stars airs live on ABC on Monday at 8/7c pm.
