Buzz up!Holly Madison is joining the cast of Dancing With the Stars, a source tells Usmagazine.com.

There is speculation the Girls Next Door star could be replacing Jewel, who has been struggling with knee problems, and blogged last week that tendinitis could force her to drop out.

The singer later released a statement saying she'd suffered a "minor setback," and added: "Don't count me out, as I am in this for the long run."

A source close to Jewel tells Us she'll still be on the show Monday.

An ABC rep would not comment to Us.

Madison recently split from her magician beau, Criss Angel. The pair hooked up shortly after Madison called it quits last October with Hugh Hefner.

The season finale of Madison's E! reality show aired last Sunday.
