Mya's Dancing Motto: "Don't Step on Dmitry's Feet and Don't Kick Him in the Nuts!"

Ouch! Find out about the DWTS darling's plans to protect her professional hoofer's manhood

Kelly Osbourne wasn't the only one hurting from last night's Dancing With the Stars.

Mya tells me the Argentine tango has left her and Dmitry Chaplin painfully black and blue. "My body is very sore from kicking each other," she told me this morning during our exclusive weekly postperformance chat. "There are tons of bruises on my legs. That's why I wore fishnets."

As for Dmitry, Mya clocked him where it really hurts at least five times during rehearsals. "My focus last night was, don't step on Dmitry's feet and don't kick him in the nuts," Mya said. "I was so nervous because a guy can't dance through that. He'd be hunched over."

Luckily, she avoided contact with the family jewels during their performance. Even so, Mya says she may be picking up a special gift for Dmitry to prepare for next week's jitterbug. Read on to find out what it is, plus get more details on Kelly O.'s injury… 

What happened to poor Kelly last night?
I went backstage afterwards and she was crying. Her buckle was jamming into her foot. It was like a puncture wound and her ankle swelled up immediately.

Len finally gave you high praise!
I was so shocked he was so nice last night. You know why we think he was? Because it was a traditional dance and you really have to have that technique and structure. He comes from that old school. No disrespect, but that was in his ballpark, in his realm.

What's up with the flu at Dancing? You feeling OK?
I'm feeling fine. I'm taking vitamin C tablets and B12. I hope that's good enough.

What was it like having Maksim back?
He's great. He's a great choreographer and he's not hard to look at. He added a bit more masculinity to the show.

So, are you hoping Dmitry gets the flu now?
No! [Laughs.] That was so wrong of you.

I know, but…
I would never wish that on him, but if it happens I wouldn't be mad. [Laughs.]

What are you dancing next week?
The jitterbug! It's going to be fun. I'm very excited about that one.

Yeah, don't your legs go flying around in that one, too? Be careful with Dmitry.
They should wear cups. [Laughs.] They say it's a sport, so they should treat it like a sport. I should go buy one for him.
