DWTS's Ricki Lake Reveals She Has Suffered Serious Injuries

In an interview with USA Today, DANCING WITH THE STARS frontrunner Ricki Lake revealed that she has suffered several injuries during her time on the dancing competition. While Lake has fully enjoyed her time on the show, she admits that the grueling rehearsals with her dance partner Derek Hough has put a severe strain on her physically.

"I have bad knees. I never had knee issues until I started dancing four hours a day," Lake commented to USA Today.

Lake also revealed that during last week's preparation for her Quickstep routine, she developed a more serious complication.  "[I also have] a bruised rib," Lake told USA Today. "Or it might be cracked. I don't know." Despite the injury, Lake is still determined to win the competition while giving JR Martinez a run for his money.

DANCING WITH THE STARS will celebrate Halloween week beginning tonight at  8/7c on ABC.
