I just broke my arm into a 1000 pieces requiring surgery with a metal plate and screws to hold my arm together.Im so sorry if I’ve disappointed anybody! Only something as bad as this could stop me from continuing to dance with my wonderful coach for …I was having a blast!!!! Shattering my arm was quite literally a crushing disappointment, i never ever want to let anyone down…so I looked for a silver lining and i think I found one that is is solid gold! Sailor! But first I would have to convince Sailor to replace me.she was already on the plane to come sit in the audience when I reached her! (Alexa has commitments in NY including her upcoming Cabaret Show at the ) I also had to convince my student/ Sailor to overcome serious stage fright to replace me on the show! Sailor always meets her challenges head on and realized she did not want to be defined by her fears so with just hours to learn my routine she is turning my defeat or should i say two left feat into her own victory of courage! So Ladies and Gents I give you my beautiful Sunflower Sailor Lee. Sailor Breezes In to Save the Day! Hey My Friends! So here’s the news. But they didn’t have to look far, because Christie’s 21-year-old daughter Sailor Brinkley-Cook agreed to fill in for her.

With hardly any time left until the season’s debut episode, DWTS was rushed to find a replacement.

I just broke my arm into a 1000 pieces requiring surgery with a metal plate and screws to hold my arm together,” Christie wrote on Instagram. She said that during rehearsals just days before the season’s first show, she fell and broke her wrist. On Monday (September 16), Christie revealed that she would no longer be able to compete on DWTS.

It turns out that was Christie’s plan, but she unfortunately didn’t get to see it through.
