Dancing With the Stars’ Jenna Johnson shared an emotional video that documented a recent “crash-out” amid the 2026 live tour.
In a Saturday, May 2, TikTok video, the professional dancer, 32, filmed herself wiping away tears as a caption set the scene. “Sick, body hurts, on my period,” the caption began. “This is what my angel of a manager had to deal with yesterday lol.” Another text caption pasted within the clip read, “Mid crash out to my manager.”
While the footage captured Johnson visibly shaken, speaking to the camera during various recordings, her voice and subsequent reflections were not audible.
The video was shared less than two weeks from the end of this year’s Dancing With the Stars Live tour, which kicked off on January 22 at Ohio’s Akron Civic Theatre and will wrap on Wednesday, May 13, at the same venue.
Fans were quick to express their concern for Johnson, who is accompanied on the tour with her fellow pro dancer husband Val Chmerkovskiy. “DWTS Tour should be name changed to Survivor. It’s [a] brutally tough looking endeavor,” wrote one person in the video’s comments section. Another wrote, “I wish people understood how rough the tour is for you guys but I also know people appreciate and love you guys so much ❤️.”
In March, Chmerkovskiy, 40, experienced a health emergency of his own while on tour, hospitalized while travelling through Illinois as part of the experience. Chmerkovskiy, who has been married to Johnson since April 2019, shared the experience via Instagram at the time. “What’s up friends? My bad. I ended up out here in Peoria, [Illinois], but the doc was cool, shout out to Claire our [personal trainer] at our tour and everybody on tour for rallying. I’ve just been having vertigo for the past couple of days and I had it yesterday,” he said in his March 1 post.
Chmerkovskiy was dressed in a grey sweatshirt and a blue beanie, appearing groggy in the video while his voice was raspy and his eyes watered.
More recently, another DWTS pro, Brandon Armstrong, announced his departure from the tour after suffering a serious injury. “OK, y’all: No easy way to say this and, honestly, I’m super bummed but you can tell I’m hurt,” Armstrong, 31, said in a Saturday, April 25, social media video that showed him wearing a sling across his arm. “I’ve been dealing with a little problem in my elbow for awhile and then a few shows ago I was doing a little thing and it just went south.”
His post continued, “Long story short, I have a broken elbow. Could be a lot worse, could obviously be a lot better. I spoke with the doctor and I’ve been counseled from that doctor and the team on tour that I need to go home and look at it and try to figure it out, see what the next steps are taken so I can get healthy again.”
