LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Derek Hough is out.

The professional dancer will not compete with his celebrity partner, Joanna Krupa, on Monday night's "Dancing With the Stars," a rep for ABC confirmed to Access Hollywood.

Derek was forced out of the ballroom temporarily after coming down with the flu, something he Tweeted about last week. And during a phone interview with Access Hollywood's Billy Bush for "The Billy Bush Show" on Monday, Kelly Osbourne said they aren't sure what kind of flu Derek has.

"They didn't say if it was swine flu, but it could be they said," Kelly said.

And Derek isn't the only one ill on the ABC reality show set. His friend Mark Ballas (paired with Melissa Joan Hart) is also feeling unwell.

"Derek is sick, Mark is sick, but it hit Derek really hard," Kelly said, noting Mark is well enough to hit the ballroom tonight. "[Derek] had to go for IV because he got dehydrated ... He came to rehearsal yesterday so everyone saw him, but I think it just really threw him. He didn't expect it."

Maksim Chmerkovskiy, who stepped in last week to help Joanna Krupa learn her dances for this evening, will compete in Derek's place.

While illness is now ripe on the "DWTS" set, Kelly thinks she and her professional partner, Louis van Amstel, will be fine.

"Louis and I are both very clean people so I've never worried that he was going to get sick and he's never worried that I was going to get sick," Kelly said. "And we've been going to get B12 shots and stuff, so hopefully we'll be fine. Fingers crossed."

What Kelly is worried about, however, is tonight's dance, which is taking on an extra special significance.

"Today I'm going to be doing a paso doble which I'm really, really scared about because they gave me one of my dad's songs to perform it to and I just hope I can do it justice because it's scary," Kelly said, revealing her music will be Ozzy Osbourne's "Crazy Train."

"They did my hair exactly the same as my dad's in the music video," she continued. "So every time I'm walking [around] backstage everyone keeps laughing at me."

Kelly said her dad is likely to be in the audience to watch his little girl on the dance floor and she revealed the standing ovation she received from her parents during Week 1 of competition was priceless.

"I think that will go down in my little history book of being one of the most amazing days of my life," she said. "It was incredible."

    Aaron looked as is if he'd just learned his mom had just died up there! Sheeesh, he takes criticism way to seriously. Sure he'll find a big strong shoulder to cry on again.

    It's alright to have a low grade fever, but if you are so sick that it is noticeable by the way; you look and the way you feel. One should not put others in harms way, personally when i am sick to keep from making other ill I just stay aways. This H1N1 is nothing to play with.

    The wrong couple was voted off. This isn't fair. Need to change the way the voting is done. One of the best is gone and several of the worst is still there. This might be my last night to watch. Never missed a night from the start until now. Just isn't fair to the good dancers.
