LOS ANGELES - Kim Kardashian didn’t “break a leg,” but she did hurt her foot.

The reality star, who was announced Monday morning to be a competitor on the seventh season of the hit ABC show “Dancing With The Stars,” told “On Air With Ryan Seacrest” that she cut her foot on Sunday night.

“We were in the hotel and I cut my foot on a glass mirrored table that was broken and jagged and I didn’t see the edge. It was, like, blood everywhere,” she said.

Following the injury, Kardashian was rushed to the emergency room.

“I had to call my ("Dancing With The Stars") partner Mark. I feel so bad, I woke him up,” Kardashian told Seacrest. “I was like, ‘You’re going to wake up and you’re going to hear all these things, but we’re going to get through this.’”

Kardashian said she “was crying all night,” but that will not jeopardize her participation on “Dancing.”

“This is a challenge, and we’ll get through this,” she said.
