"Dancing with the Stars" is only in week and Audrina Patridge is hard-pressed from performing. Taking on dance rehearsals six days a week, the former "Hills" star is already complaining of back pains, throat soreness and lack of sleep.
"Just left regis n kelly can't believe we fit our quickstep on their stage!!" the 25-year-old reality TV gal said. "We made it work tho:) now its nap time!! I feel like a zombie."
HER RELATIONSHIP IS CRUMBLING
In a new relationship with boyfriend and former "Hills" ex Corey Bohan, Patridge confessed to TheHollywoodGossip.com that she is feeling pulled in too many directions trying to win the Mirrorball trophy and make her lovelife work.
“My boyfriend and I were fighting and I was trying to come into the studio and block it all out," Audrina explained of her teary outburst on Monday's episode of 'DWTS'. "And then Tony is telling me all these nice things and I just got a little teary-eyed.”
In addition to blocking Corey out of her mind, Audrina has banned him from the dance studio. While other contestant family members (like Jersey Shore's "The Situation" and Kurt Warner) are visiting, Audrina doesn't want to be distracted by a lover.
"When I’m in rehearsal, I just want to focus," she says. "Little things distract me. I’m not comfortable with my clothes or anything. My focus needs to be on dance.”
TOO MUCH TRAINING ON "DANCING"
Stars at the studio are logging anywhere between 8-10 hours of dance practice a day. While Audrina battles boyfriend drama, she's also under stress - both physically and mentally - in an effort to get everything done.
"I am so sick right now! It's horrible," Patridge posted to her blog Tuesday. "Last Monday night, my throat was really scratchy and I could barely swallow. It got worse Tuesday, and then Wednesday I lost my voice at rehearsal."
She explains further, "It's just a head cold, but right now my body's kind of weak because it's fighting the sickness. It's been hard this week! I just hope that I feel better by Monday night so I give it my all."
AUDRINA: "I'M OBSESSED WITH WINNING"
Partner Tony Dovolani is doing his best to keep Audrina's body prepped for the practices and weekly performance routines. In addition to getting advice and vitamin supplements from co-cast member and "Dirty Dancing" star Jennifer Gray, Audrina is popping B12 to boost her immune system into overdrive.
"Tony eventually made me go to the doctor, so I'm on medicine now," she said before this week's number. "He's also been making me take liquid vitamin shots every few hours. That's helped boost my energy a little. So I'm not better, but I'm not getting worse."
