Back surgery for Jennifer Grey

The latest edition of "Dancing with the Stars" may be finished, but that doesn't mean fans are finished with it. In the latest bits of "Dancing" news:

Season 11 winner Jennifer Grey may be going under the knife. The "Dirty Dancing" star ruptured a disc in her lower back last week, just before the finale, according to E! News, and Grey told "Access Hollywood" she plans to have corrective surgery soon.

"It's just going be like a little surgery where they take out the ruptured disc thing, and you know, it won't be a big deal," Grey, 50, said. "Compared to the other surgeries I had on my neck, my doctor says it won't be a big deal. I'll be home that night."

And as the inevitable speculation begins over who will comprise the next batch of contestants, a source told E! that the show's producers want Todd Palin - husband of Sarah Palin and father of this season's final-three finisher Bristol Palin.

"They want him big time," the source said. "They'd love Sarah, but they don't think that will ever happen, so why not go for the dad."

The producers' supposed wish list also includes former New York Gov. Elliot Spitzer, and Sen. John McCain's daughter, writer Meghan McCain.

A "Dancing" representative told E! that, as usual, the show has "no comment" on casting rumors.
