Debi Mazar has joined the list of Dancing With The Stars casualties after tearing a muscle in her neck. The actress was taken to hospital after the TV show's premiere on Tuesday night and is now sporting a neck brace.

In a Twitter.com post to fans, Mazar writes, "I'm okay - torn muscle in neck to chest! Foxtrot... cruel and sadistic."

The actress also attached a photo of herself wearing the neck brace.

Fellow contestant Mya is also dancing injured - she slashed her hand on broken glass.

The show has a long history of injuries to famous contestants - last season, Jewel was forced to pull out of the show after suffering knee injuries and Steve-O and Gilles Marini were in and out of hospital with serious medical issues.
