Watch: Rumer Willis Gives Update on Dancing Injury

Rumer Willis isn't giving up hope just yet.

Despite announcing yesterday that she'd only be singing on the Dancing With the Stars tour because a foot injury has left her sidelined, she told me last night she thinks she's could end up returning to the dance floor.

"If I just take a little bit of a rest, hopefully, I'll be at least able to finish the last days of the tour," Willis said at the premiere of Amy, the new documentary about Amy Winehouse (in theaters July 3).

Doctors told the DWTS champ she probably didn't give herself "enough of a break" after competing on the ABC reality dance show.

Wow. Looks amazing. #rumerwillis @eonline @enews more to come.

"I will definitely be getting better and just resting up for a little while," Willis said. "It's not actually broken. It's just stress fractures. It's one of those things where if I keep dancing on it, it will get worse."

She should be healed in a "couple of weeks," Willis said. "It's a bummer."

She announced the bad news on Instagram Wednesday. "I have to hang up my dancing shoes for a little bit because of a few stress fractures in my foot but it's not gonna stop me from singing for you guys on the #DWTSlivetour," she wrote.

"While on tour with Dancing with the Stars: Live! Rumer Willis hurt her right foot dancing. She has been diagnosed with a stress fractures and is currently resting," a rep for the tour said in a statement to E! News. "While it remains unclear at this time if Rumer will be able to dance for the remainder of the tour, she is still having fun with her dancing family and will continue to be on the road with the tour. She is hanging up her dancing shoes (for now), but Rumer is still a huge part of the tour and will be singing in various numbers throughout the 90 minute show."
