Jenna Johnson Dancing With the Stars, Digi Mart USA News: Just weeks after Ezra Sosa nearly broke his nose while practicing with partner Amber Glenn, another Dancing With the Stars pro is dealing with a similar injury, except this time it is an actual fracture. On November 10, just hours before the premiere of Grammy Night on DWTS season 35, Jenna Johnson took to social media to share the news.
According to Johnson, who is partnered with Harry Shum Jr. this season, the incident happened during camera blocking the night before.
“So last night I definitely broke my nose during camera blocking,” she explained, pointing to the swelling in her face.
She also captioned the post, “Salsa: 1. Jenna’s Nose: 0.” Fans wanted to know whether she would still perform tonight.
While she did not explicitly say whether she was dancing, Johnson added “Happy Show Day” to her caption, suggesting the show will go on.
Shum Jr. jokingly commented on her post, “WHO DID THIS TO YOU??
….oh…sorry…BUT YOU ARE A TOTAL BADASS!!!! 💪🏼”
Luckily, Johnson only has to dance one number tonight. She and Shum Jr.
earned immunity from this week’s dance-off after scoring a 40/40 for their jazz performance to “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” from Mary Poppins. Instead of facing another pairing, they will automatically receive dance-off bonus points added to their score.
This week, the pair is performing a salsa to “Die With a Smile” by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars. The source notes that the Grey’s Anatomy star is partnered with Johnson in this routine.
