Will her leg fall off?
Story here.
Excerpt:
An online gambling site is inviting macabre bets on whether Heather Mills' prosthetic leg will fall off during her participation in US television show Dancing with the Stars.
The Antigua-based Bodog.com is inviting punters to lay money on whether Mills, the estranged wife of Sir Paul McCartney who lost her leg in a 1993 traffic accident, would suffer a mishap in the show.
The site made a "no" outcome the heavy favourite, and said Mills's leg "must fall off, not be purposely taken off, during a dance routine for all 'yes' wagers to be graded a win".

The real question here is if it falls off, will she keep dancing or stop the performance? I can think of at least one person who would probably figure out a workaround and keep right on 'til the end, but in this kind of dancing I expect it takes a deft partner and lots of practicing alternative choreography in advance.
It would trump a "wardrobe malfunction" as far as drama within the dance, I think. There's been a TV ad for the season premiere running recently where Mills does note that losing her leg during a dance is a concern of hers. Having all my original limbs, I didn't actually know this was a real concern until hearing of it.
