Carrie Ann Inaba Trades Judges' Chair for Hospital Bed

Spending all season craning your neck over the judges' table is good for catching illegal lifts, but not so good on your already arthritic neck.
As Dancing With the Stars' prettiest judge (sorry, Bruno) practices the former and suffers from the latter, Carrie Ann Inaba will be undergoing the first of what may be several surgeries this morning in order to relieve the pressure caused by her spinal stenosis.
"I have arthritis," she told People. "The space around my spinal cord has become compressed. I have been locked. My neck was so stiff. We're hoping this procedure will relieve that.
"I'll be fine and if this surgery goes well, I may have another one in the future."
The curse spares no one, people.
And just like her show's dancers, who know from speedy recoveries, Inaba plans to be back on her feet in no time. Along with fellow cofounders Katie Holmes, Nigel Lythgoe and Adam Shankman, she plans to be in attendance at the Dizzy Feet Foundation's Celebration of Dance fund-raiser this Sunday in Los Angeles.

You don't have to be working on the dance floor to get injured. Just like you don't have to be a hot young thing to take home the disco ball trophy, right, Donny Osmond?
