Think You Can Dance Shuffle: Jessica Out, Comfort In

Jessica King and Comfort Fedoke by Joe Viles/Fox

So You Think You Can Dancer Jessica is out, and Comfort is back in, Fox announced Monday morning at the TCA press tour. "I would like to say how sorry I am that Jessica cannot continue dancing in the competition at the advice of her doctor," executive producer/judge Nigel Lythgoe said in a statement. "Her full recovery is paramount and will only come with rest. We are fortunate that Comfort has agreed to rejoin the competition and know that under the circumstances she has Jessica's full support."

Lythgoe said that U.S. laws prevented him from elaborating on the exact nature and magnitude of Jessica's injury, but said that Jessica would do so herself on Wednesday night's episode. (Lythgoe also let it slip that Courtney would be paired with Joshua this week.) - Matt Mitovich and Mickey O'Connor
