KATHERINE JENKINS broke down in tears after injuring her back during a semi-final performanc­e on Dancing With The Stars. The Welsh mezzo-soprano was nearing the end of a fast-paced belly dance routine with partner Mark Ballas on the US version of Strictly Come Dancing when she muddled up a move and was unable to continue. The star later revealed to Twitter followers: “Thank you for all your concerned tweets... I’m with the doctor, he says it was a reflectori­cal spasm in my lower back.” The show’s judges reassured tearful Katherine that she had delivered a knock-out performanc­e, awarding her 27 marks out of 30. :: JESSICA ALBA has revealed that she felt “objectifie­d” when she was younger. The 31-year-old actress wanted to prove she was more than just a pretty face with a sexy figure when she starred in sci-fi TV series Dark Angel in 2000. “I had a show that premiered when I was 19. And right away, everyone formed a strong opinion about me because of the way I was marketed,” she told US Marie Claire. “I was supposed to be sexy, this tough action girl. That’s what people expected. I felt like I was being objectifie­d, and it made me uncomforta­ble,” she added.
