Overview
- Johnson said in an Instagram video posted Tuesday that she broke her nose during camera blocking on Monday and showed swelling and bruising on the right side of her face.
- In the video she noted her nose was swollen but she had no black eyes and did not indicate she would sit out the Grammy Night performance.
- Johnson and partner Harry Shum Jr. earned perfect scores earlier this season and won immunity last week, so they are only scheduled to perform one routine on Tuesday’s show.
- Fans, fellow cast members and her husband Val Chmerkovskiy left supportive comments on her post as production continued with hair and makeup checks later the same day.
- The incident highlights the physical risks of live-dance rehearsals, where lifts and camera blocking can cause injuries, and it could affect the field if Johnson needs medical clearance before the semifinals.
