Ever since Marie Osmond fainted last October on "Dancing With the Stars" it seems some type of negative energy has taken over Stage 46 at CBS Television City. Food poisonings, injuries, surgeries, blackouts are all becoming common place on the set. Even the show could not ignore what many people are calling a "Dancing" curse.
In a taped segment last night the show pointed out the spot on the floor, near the judges, which pro dancer Derek Hough has dubbed the Bermuda Triangle. It's where he was injured; Misty May-Treanor tore her Achilles tendon leading to her exit from the show and it's also where Susan Lucci twisted her ankle.
The curse was the hot topic backstage with Mel B after the show. Lance Bass is absolutely convinced something is wrong with the stage telling Mel, "I know it's cursed. Every major injury that has happened this season has been on this stage. Not in rehearsal. Right here on the stage."
Professional dancer Karina Smirnoff, who has had her own injury this season, told Mel she has a solution.
"I think they need to bring like a magic person or a priest or someone to bless it."
Her dance partner Rocci DiSpirito jokingly added, "We need an exorcism!"
So, is the stage really cursed? Common sense tells us 'of course not.' However, just to play a little bit of devil's advocate, I did some research about the history of CBS Television City, where the show is taped.
The ghostly details after the jump...

"Survivor: Gabon" - CBS, 8 PM -- Eighteen contestants are heading to Africa in this latest season. But for the first time ever they will be battling the elements in HD! Watching emaciated, exhausted, sweaty people in HD, no thanks.
Skip It!
"Ugly Betty" - ABC, 8 PM -- Tonight we find out whether or not Betty chooses Henry or Gio. Personally, I'm betting it's neither. Lindsay Lohan guest stars as Betty's high school rival again in the first episode shot in their new filming home, New York City.
Watch it!
"My Name is Earl" – 8 PM, NBC -- Joy cons Make-A-Wish to send a celebrity to her trailer which makes Earl remember a wish he stole from a dying child. He decides it's time to cross him off the list. When he returns to the kid's home, he finds that little Buddy (guest star Seth Green) has exceeded all of the doctors' expectations and is still alive. I'll always choose Betty over Earl.
TiVo it!
"The Office" – 9 PM, NBC -- The Dunder-Mifflin team embarks on a weight loss challenge "Biggest Loser" style. Meanwhile, Michael pursues a relationship with Holly (guest star Amy Ryan) and Jim misses Pam while she is away at art school. It all sounds so serious, but trust me when I tell you that the uncomfortable, laugh out loud moments will make this the show of the night.
Watch It!
"Grey's Anatomy" – 9 PM, ABC -- Mer and Der begin their new relationship which creator Shonda Rhimes has said will be permanent. Boring! McDreamy needs to move on from the crazy that is Meredith. More interesting is the new love interest, a military doctor for Christina, guest star Kevin McKidd from NBC's brilliant but cancelled "Journeyman." I'd follow his journey anywhere. Normally I watch "Grey's" and TiVo "The Office." Not tonight!
Tivo It!
In a conference call with reporters, Tom let loose on what he thought of trainer Jillian Michaels' training methods.
"You can pretty much keep Jillian. I didn’t care too much for her. I understand she has a job to do but she really doesn't treat people like adults. She treated most of us like children, which I didn't take too kind to. You see a lot of it on the camera, it’s kind of like a stinky pig -- they pretty it all up nice for the audience but she.. her mouth is just, it's incredible. I have to thank her because she probably saved my life with what she did, but didn't care too much for the method in which she did it," he explained.
Mark Wahlberg is on the end of the row in front of me. He keeps having to get up to let people out to hit the bathroom.
A very pregnant Amy Poehler runs up the aisle at commercial to say, "Hi" to some friends. She runs back and says, "Hi" to John Krasinski from "The Office" then runs back up to say, "Hi" to Seth Myers. She is truly glowing.
Adrian Grenier heads out to the lobby. He stops to chat with Mark Wahlberg and gets caught in a logjam of folks trying to hit the lobby too. Only an hour into the show and everyone is antsy already. Not good!
Melora Hardin and Kate Flannery from "The Office" stand up because they can't see the screen during the throws to commercial.
Josh Groban's TV theme medley was fantastic! Just in case he forgets a word or what song is next it's all on the teleprompter. He only seems to glance at it once.
David Boreanaz, prior to the Laugh In reunion, waits in the wings for his turn to present. He nervously messes with his tux and pulls up his striped socks. He attended rehearsal yesterday but his co-presenter, Lauren Conrad, did not. He told me they would meet for the first time tonight. He has never seen an episode of "The Hills." They don't talk much as they wait together backstage. LC nervously wipes something off her dress.
Half way through the show and boredom has set in. The lobby is jamming. Conan O'Brien, who has been up at every commercial and clearly can't sit still, is out in the lobby on the phone. Mark Wahlberg waits in line for a drink at the concession stand. A bunch of people asks to take photos of him. A group of people stands and uses their phones to snap photos of him standing in line. Really? At the Emmys! Kinda rude if you ask me.
Love that Kathy Griffin just yelled at the audience to, "GET UP!" when she walked out to stage with Don Rickles.
I head upstairs and just as I get to the Nokia floor, I run smack into Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick. I act like I'm part of their group and breeze into the front of the theater.
Then, I hit the motherload! The front row is chock full of stars. Nominee Neil Patrick Harris sits quietly with his partner, David Burtka, taking it all in. Yesterday, he told me he was so happy his award was the first. Less pressure. Mariska Hargitay chomps on gum. Jack MacBrayer is standing next to me and I shamefully tap him on the shoulder and tell him I love him on "30 Rock." Alec Baldwin talks to Jane Krakowski, his "30 Rock" co-star. Jane turns around and gives a hug to Conan O'Brien who introduces her to his wife. Jimmy Kimmel chats with Tim Robbins. Jeremy Piven is on his blackberry. His "Entourage" co-stars, Kevin Connelly, Adrian Grenier and Jerry Ferrera (all sans dates) sit together behind him and (I'm not ashamed to say) checked me out as I headed to my seat. I feel cool all of a sudden. Kevin Dillon sits behind them on the aisle with his wife.
I ask an usher to help find my seat and while she looks at my ticket she is blocking Larry David from getting to his seat. He seems less that enthusiastic about this. I get to my row and "Saturday Night Live's" Seth Myers and his brother stand up to let me pass. They are at the end of the row. I'm sitting behind the actors who play the writers of "30 Rock."
I've just arrived to the Emmys and let me tell you that red carpet is "H.O.T. - hot" and I actually am talking about the temperature.
So, thanks to our friends at On3 Productions, Access Hollywood is exclusive backstage Dishing with the stars on Saturday and Sunday at the Presenter's Gift Lounge at “The 60th Primetime Emmy® Awards” hosted by AEG Ehrlich Ventures, producers of this year's landmark show.

It's not your ordinary gift lounge though, for all the stars who stop by, Bertolli Oven Bake Meals is making a donation on their behalf to the Dream Street Foundation and Girls, Inc. -- two great causes!
I am thrilled to be spending my Emmys inside the gift lounge. It's right next to Oprah Winfrey's dressing room! So, I'm hoping for a sighting. I missed her yesterday when she came through the lounge. One of my eagle eye spotters did see her though. She arrived at around 1 PM with her best friend Gayle King in tow. She snagged some Michael Kors Trench Coat Frame sunglasses and actually left wearing them (UPDATE late Sunday evening: Oprah was also seen sporting them on her way out after presenting). Gayle picked a pair of Emilio Pucci sunglasses for herself. Oprah also grabbed a Stella McCartney designed LeSportsac bag. She was overheard saying that her favorite thing (and we know how she loves her favorite things!) was Truejeans.com, a Web site that matches customers with jeans that fit them perfectly.
Oprah also checked out a 1.5 million dollar 255 carat diamond necklace, earrings, a bracelet and a ring collection from D'Annunzio Group International. They were hoping she would want to borrow it for tonight but she told them, "I wouldn't take it, it's too much responsibility!" I'm told that Oprah bumped into nominee and host Heidi Klum in the elevator and told her someone sent her a Seal CD and that's all she was listening to in her car right now.
So, instead, I tried on the necklace. Unfortunately, they weren't going to lend it to me for the red carpet.
The hysterical Ross the Intern from "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" was hanging out at the Bertolli Oven Bake Meals booth where they were having celebs sign their own signature dishes for charity. I asked him if he ever got married would he change his name. He said he would hyphenate. I suggested Ross Matthews Clooney. "From your mouth to God's ears," he replied.
Jennifer Love Hewitt dropped in and picked up a pair of grey Koolaburra boots with a Swarovski crystal peace sign, "Ooh," she joked. "I know what I'm wearing with my dress tomorrow!" She's a huge fan of Tweety Bird and just about fell over when she saw D'Anunnzio's diamond Tweety Bird charm. She also grabbed a Palm centro smartphone. The one-of-a-kind Palm centro's phones were all blinged out with Swarovski crystals by Ed Hardy Icing – same for the matching Plantronics Bluetooth headset.
