The Curse of Tom Bergeron?

Posted Nov 6th 2007 12:19PM by TMZ Staff

Is there a "Dancing With the Stars" curse? Tragedy seems to have befallen several cast members recently.

Just last week Marie Osmond infamously fainted during a live broadcast, and today word came that she sadly lost her father, George Osmond, patriarch of the singing Osmond clan. And Jane Seymour's mother passed away last month.

These unfortunate incidents are just a few of the woes faced by these women since joining the show, Jane also had to skip an episode due to food poisoning and very nearly lost her home in the Malibu fires last month.

Marie and Jane haven't been the only ones to endure The Curse: Sara Evans left the show during a painful divorce, Stacy Keibler suffered a seizure while promoting the show and -- worst of all -- the unfortunate bout of tanorexia suffered by "Dancing" staple Cheryl Burke.

Make it stop, Tom Bergeron!

47. Oh, geez. This isn't a "curse". It's just the law of averages. I'm feel for anyone who loses a family member, but it IS kind of inevitable. Parents usually die before their children. And Stacy had a seizure? Seizures are far more common than is generally thought. Not as common as a common cold, but common nonetheless. This "curse" is no more a "curse" than there's any kind of significance to two people in a group of 30 or so sharing the same birthday.

48. Harvey, you need more control over your children! Does anybody at TMZ edit before posting these made-up stories? Obviously NOT. I don't get why Tom Bergeron is being held responsible for the misfortunes that have occurred on this show. Is this suppose to be funny? Whoever wrote this has a warped sense of humor and is very disturbed! I don't think I want to continue supporting a website and tv show that is into dark humor.

57. There is letting us know the facts and being tacky. You are being tacky. It's okay to say that Tom is a devils spawn (like the picture implies) because he is alive! You tards at TMZ need to have some respect.
