Elaine Hendrix is dancing through her pain.<\/p>\n
The Parent Trap alum had the ballroom in tears during the Oct. 21 Wicked<\/a> Night episode of Dancing With the Stars<\/a> <\/a>after she and partner Alan Bersten performed a contemporary routine to \u201cDefying Gravity.\u201d And as she explained, every day on the show she was defying her own odds due to injuries she sustained after a 1992 car accident.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cI have a titanium joint in my right foot,\u201d Elaine shared during her intro, \u201cso that renders half my foot unusable. Every week, my body shifts into a new pain spot, but I just don\u2019t wanna let it stop me.\u201d<\/p>\n The choice to dance to the powerful \u201cDefying Gravity\u201d was a deliberate one, as Alan wanted the 54-year-old to realize \u201cshe can trust herself,” reminding Elaine that \u201cshe is stronger than her injuries.\u201d<\/p>\n As the two took the floor, they immediately put a spell on the audience, especially as Elaine literally defied gravity, being raised while holding a broom at the end of the number. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Elaine Hendrix is dancing through her pain.
