Chuck Wicks is one busy guy these days. Not only is he practicing for dancing with the stars alongside his cutie Julianne Hough, he is also touring and recording. He just finished recording a new song for his album. We can’t wait to hear.
He has been practicing for DWTS all on his own and frankly, we would love to see video of that. Keep up the good work.
I just finished up in the studio recording a BRAND NEW SONG to ADD ON MY CURRENT RECORD!!!

We will have the New Song done by next week and I cant wait to get it out to all of you in stores by MARCH!!!! It will be on my current record “STARTING NOW” and i can’t wait to hear what you think!

Hopefully this won’t keep her from performing on Dancing With The Stars. Jewel has tendonitis in her knees and won’t be able practice for the next couple of days.

Good luck Jewel!

Well, I feel kinda bummed today.
I guess I really over did it on the rehearsal front! My knees have been hurting so badly that I finally broke down and talked to Ty’s knee doctor yesterday. He said I have tendonitis in my knees and that I have to start a course of medicine to try and bring the swelling down.  Yuck! It’s mainly my left knee, and I can’t believe I hurt it so badly… Ty warned me I was over doing it, and now he got a big ol’ ‘I told you so’ in.  The worst part is that I can’t rehearse for the next couple days. It was just so fun to dance 8 hours a day- especially considering I only had 3 weeks to cram not only for my first dance- cha cha, but to learn the fundamentals of about 6 other dances that I will have to know. But now I’m just worried I won’t even be able to dance! Hopefully these steroids will really do the trick and I can keep bad flare ups at a bay in the future. To read more, visit www.jeweljk.com
