Bad news for fans of Dancing With The Star’s Misty and Maks–Misty May-Treanor is forced to leave the show due to an injury. It’s serious enough, that she’ll require surgery.
Olympic gold medalist Misty May-Treanor will leave “Dancing With the Stars” after suffering an injury, Access Hollywood has learned.
A source close to the show revealed to Access that the volleyball star is out of the competition and will require surgery.
Though the competition was just two weeks old, May-Treanor had already stepped out as a “Dancing” star on the rise.
The injury occurred yesterday. Misty was released from the hospital last night.
Update: This is the statement producers gave Access Hollywood after they reported she was out of the competition:
“Misty May-Treanor sustained an injury on Friday and received immediate medical attention,” show producers told Access on Saturday in a statement. “Despite previous reports, she did not break her ankle. She is resting comfortably at home. Doctors will reevaluate her condition on Monday and determine the outcome of her participation on the show.”
There’s no official word yet that Misty is out of the competition.
Damn, I had her as my overall pick in the pool! If she’s gone, there go my points… Seriously, a speedy recovery to Misty. Her injury derailed what would have likely been a successful run on the show with popular dance pro Maksim Chmerkovskiy.

Sarah and Krazeek will be crushed! Will they bring someone back, or just go on? Will the peeps who picked her in the pool as the winner get a chance to change without penalty? I didn’t pick her, but am wondering.
I hope she’s okay. I didn’t pick her either but will miss Max! Should we ALL pick her this week or will someone else go home too? So many questions where the pool is concerned!
Oh no, no more Maks? I hope Misty May will be OK but the competition is never the same without Maks.
Did you guys hear that??? It is the wail of pain coming from somewhere in Central Florida.
Sorry you lost your TV boyfriend Sarah….. :(
Get well soon Misty. I need to see you out kicking ass and taking names next year on the AVP tour.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Y’all knew I’d pop up on this thread, didn’t you.
Not only were they my favorite couple, but I chose Misty to win on the pool!!! Ugh. Disgusting.
At least I didn’t lose my TV boyfriend…sorry Sarah.
Sarah, stay away from Alec, mmmkay!
KK, hopefully the pool peeps will let y’all choose a new overall winner without penalty. It would only be fair.
I’m am so very bummed. I love me some Maks. And Misty, too, for that matter.
I’m hoping Access Hollywood is wrong, even though I know they’re not. I’m sure she has to do what she has to do for her future, even if it does break my heart.
But I didn’t have her as my overall pick. The minute I saw the football player, I figured it would be him at the end.
Noooo! Poor Misty. Poor Maks. Poor me, who’s been waiting for Maks to come back. Well, there goes another season. Can they give Maks Samantha’s job?
NOOO! I only watch for Maks.
Okay, this? Really sucks. I am very, very sad. :(
But, I understand. Her dancing with an injury is quite a bit different from Cristian last year, because she’s an athlete and needs to be healthy with no lasting damage to her body, for her career’s sake. But still, that doesn’t make it suck any worse. Get well soon, Misty.
I second sunchick on giving Maks Samantha’s job for the rest of the season.
And no worries pj. :) No one replaces Maks as my DWTS tv bf. Heck, I halfheartedly watched last season (as in, didn’t care too much to watch, and missed half the shows) because he wasn’t on it.
ETA: I just re-read the update with the producers’ statement. Glad that she didn’t break her ankle. But, even with an ankle sprain (really serious or not), she would have a really hard time dancing this week because I’ve read that they are doing (SPOILER ALERT) the Jive, which is a whole lot of very quick footwork. I guess we’ll see tomorrow.
My sentiments exactly.
Get well soon Misty.
I have a feeling they already know whether she can dance or not (I’m guessing not), but the producers want to keep it a mystery…maybe all the way up until show time.
More drama for the show? It is too bad this involves the injury of a contestant who has to put her career first. Hopefully, it won’t be serious. Best wishes to Misty.
Maks is what was missing from last season’s show. I will miss, miss, miss him so much!
I’m LOL at how most of us are upset about not seeing Maks anymore.
:glurps_tb:
Will he just do the group numbers now?
Doh wrong thread!
