Elaine Hendrix, a 54-year-old contestant on Dancing With the Stars, suffered a rib injury that prevented her from performing live during the October 28 Halloween episode. Instead, producers aired her final dress rehearsal with partner Alan Bersten.

Medical professionals were uncertain whether she had torn or strained a muscle, recommending rest and no dancing for several days, which caused her significant stress. However, doctors eventually cleared her to return to competition.

During the November 4 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame-themed episode, Hendrix and Bersten performed a Viennese waltz to Dionne Warwick's 'What the World Needs Now.' Their performance impressed all four judges, earning them a cumulative score of 37 points. Following her successful comeback, Hendrix expressed gratitude to her supporters and told host Julianne Hough that she felt 'solid and strong.'
