'Bachelor' star joins 'Dancing' lineup

Bachelor contestant Melissa Rycroft has joined the Dancing With The Stars lineup, according to People.

Rycroft, who lost in the final of the ABC reality show, will apparently replace Access Hollywood's Nancy O'Dell. She is expected to appear on tonight's series premiere.

O'Dell pulled out last week after suffering a torn meniscus in rehearsals.

Meanwhile, Girl Next Door star Holly Madison is tipped to replace singer Jewel, who was also forced to exit the show last week due to injury.

ABC have declined to comment on the reports.
