Derek Hough is seen leaving a medical clinic in Los Angeles and is very ill.  He was Twittering (thanks TalkinToU) that he is ill and is having Maksim Chmerkovskiy step in for him:

Woke up with the seirous sweats .. I think I’m getting the flew … Had a bath now trying to get more sleep … Bummer .. Tough week

My whole body is aching like crazy I can barely stand up … And I’m coughing like crazy.. This sucks ..

At the docs for 3 hrs today … Had a temprature of 104 … Had an IV in my arm for 2hrs … Maks is steppin up for me helpin jo

The poor thing!  I hope he feels better real soon.  He’s hoping he will:

Hopefully I will feel better tomorrow … Fingers crossed …

And his silliest Tweet:

Maybe I should have kept my shirt on …

Not that I would ever wish illness on anyone, but I think we’re all pretty happy he took his shirt off.

Get better soon Derek.
