Cheryl Burke Takes Vacation

Dancing with the Star professional has taken her first vacation in three years according to Gossip Girls. While she normally spends her summers doing Dancing with the Stars tours, this year she is focusing on her San Francisco dance studio and reportedly taking a much deserved vacation in Hawaii!! I hope she gets well rested as I look forward to seeing her next season! She always does such a good job coaching her celebrities. I think she is my all time favorite of all the professional dancers to appear on Dancing with the Stars.

Cristian de la Fuente Making Good Progress

Dancing with the Stars Season 6 finalist, Cristian de la Fuente seems to still making incredible progress from his surgery. He was injured on the dance floor while dancing with partner, Cheryl Burke. He had to be rushed to the doctor and receive medical treatment; however, he postponed surgery until he was eliminated. He ended up not being eliminated until the last night so he completed the season.  He underwent surgery however to repair the damange to his tendons and everything went smoothly. Two weeks laer, he has now returned for followups with the doctor and had the stitches removed.  Though he still has to wear a brace, he has not been slowed down. He has been making many appearances promoting his new USA Show, In Plain Sight and he and Cheryl made an appearance at Disney World.
