Adele Damages Voice? On Dancing with The Stars She Couldnt Hit All the Notes

She's currently No.1 in the American charts with her new album 21 having managed the impressive feat of cracking the U.S. market.

But last night British singer Adele was forced to cancel one of her planned performances on Dancing With The Stars because, as she put it, her voice was 'knackered'.

The 23-year-old star, who was pictured out in Beverly Hills the night before, did sing her track Rolling In The Deep.

But fellow guest Delta Goodrem was drafted in at the last minute to perform a cover of the Carole King hit Natural Woman instead.

No doubt Adele's smoking habit would not have helped matters.

The London-born star explained to host Tom Bergeron that she was struggling to hit the high notes on the song, so would only be performing one track.

She said: 'I was going to be covering Natural Woman but my voice is going a bit, its knackered and I need to save it.

'Delta Goodrem has stepped in with an hours notice, so thanks very much. I am gutted,' she added, amusing Bergeron with her very British vocabulary.

Delta then sang the legendary song with just an hour of rehearsal, after earlier singing a duet of the song I'm Not Ready with former DWTS contestant Michael Bolton.

Last night's results show saw actor Romeo, 22, given the boot.

Karate Kid star Ralph Macchio managed to survive another week, though, despite limping through Monday's performances due to a leg injury.

He will now join NFL star Hines Ward and partner Kym Johnson as well as actress Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy.

Rounding out the final four of the hit dancing competition are the team of Chelsea Kane and Mark Ballas.
