Life's A Beach For Julianne Hough

Posted Wed Apr 9, 2008 4:38pm PDT by Lyndsey Parker in Reality Rocks

Don't hate Julianne Hough because she's beautiful. Or because she has the endless legs and seamless moves to win two back-to-back Dancing With The Stars championships. Or because she got to log hours upon hours of rehearsal time practicing the samba in the rugged arms of hot athletes like Apolo Ohno and Helio Castroneves. Or because she's so hot herself that (untrue) rumors ran rampant about her alleged affairs with Apolo and Helio.

Man, come to think of it, there are a lot of reasons to hold a jealous grudge against Julianne. The latest reason is the fact that along with her many other talents and assets, the girl can SING.

Yes, just when you'd thought she'd suffered a setback after her left-/lead-footed partner Adam Carolla got her voted off Dancing With The Stars this week, thus ruining her chances of a DWTS threepeat...Julianne is already bouncing back with a country music career. And UNLIKE other reality-TV starlets like Heidi Montag and Paris Hilton, this girl actually deserves her record deal.

Sure, it would be easy to hate Julianne Hough...if she wasn't so damn nice. In her first music video, "That Song In My Head"--a sunshine-soaked affair that will probably never be mistaken for a video by, say, the Cure or Evanescence--this America's sweetheart comes across as almost cavity-inducingly sweet. She's all smiles and legs and sugar and spice and everything nice, skipping like a shiny happy schoolgirl down a beach boardwalk. And why shouldn't she be happy? Her life is pretty awesome right now, despite her DWTS defeat.

And it's admittedly hard not to smile along as you watch her enjoy her day at the beach. So kick up your heels with Julianne and view her now:

Hey to my fave blogger. Thanks LP for this great article. I love "Dancing with the stars". There are a few people watching "Idol gives back" right now, live on your "Idol gives back" blog. That's how I saw this great column above. Thanks for all your hard work.

2. Yahoo! Music User -
Terrific blog. I loved Adam Carolla btw. His humor was such an asset to the show. The most fun contestant ever to watch (for me anyway). Thanks LP.

3. Yahoo! Music User -
Adam Carolla told Julianne she'd soon have a lot of time to focus on her country music career. LOL. Sorry to see them eliminated so soon.

4. Yahoo! Music User -
Thank you Lyndsey for posting the vid. I love her too.

FLASH!!!....Ahhhhh, He's the #1 Kristy Fan! (on A.I.)- lol.

Wild!...I'm confused. I read Lindseys blog about Julianne and it seems so positive an complimentary (like Miss Hough herself) she actually sounds the way I do about "Kristy Lee Cook" (on the Idol blogs written by LP).

I'm glad LP likes someone! I am concerned that LP chose to make a blog with sentiments like 'It's easy to Hate Julianna cause she's so awesomely beautiful and talented (I'm paraphraseing!)...It might be easier for some more than other to "Hate" someone their appear to be 'Jealous' of based on "Other Blogs" I've seen LP write...anyone really.

I haven't watched "DWTS" since Kelly Monaco (playboy model & emmy soap actress supreme) won it- that was enough for me. I don't often don't like the 'Stars' they choose.

I can say that I'm familar with Julianne from Howard Stern & Jimmy Kimmel and she seems every bit as gorgeous, sweet, girley, and even more 'Faith Based' than Kristy Lee from A.I. - Why does LP like Miss Hough for all the reasons I think all of people like Kristy on A.I.? What's the difference between them (besides age and geographical upbringing).

If you're into A.I. I don't think you'll get the question I'm asking (Just Pass and move on) but if you follow Lindsey or the both shows...I don't see much of difference between Julianne & Kristy.

How about it LP??? This isn't an attack - I'm curious to hear you compare them. I Think Julianne is Gorgeous! (Hotter than Kristy possibly...but not by much)- They both could be Playboy Models- although I think Kirsty will be in "Maxim" before Julianne given her religion from what I've heard.

I"m glad that LP's a fan of Miss Hough and wrote a blog to celebrate it! Good for You Lindsey!!

You're the best LP. Great blog for this DWTS fan.

Thank you Lyndsey. "She's what we call a four-pole threat. That's right, four-pole," said Adam Carolla. "She's beautiful, she can sing, she can dance, and she's hard working."

PS: Did you see this? I ask because I know you love Top Model too.

'Top Model' hit with Parents TV Council FCC indecency complaint

I'll miss her and Adam. But the good news is she'll now have time to promote her self-titled debut album, which will drop May 20, the same day as Dancing with the Stars' live sixth-season finale broadcast.

12. Lisa -
Hey thanks so for giving us the info on her new song. Yeah she rocks at everything she does but She probably works that little butt off to do it all so well. Great to watch really fun and catchy awesome voice on to her new next career. she truely is a triple threat!Good going shes a ray of bright sunshine in every way.

13. Yahoo! Music User -
She really is a sweetheart. I saw them on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Kimmel asked Hough if she enjoyed dancing with Carolla more than her fourth-season partner Apolo Anton Ohno or fifth-season partner Helio Castroneves -- both of whom she claimed the mirror ball trophy with. "I don't like anybody better [than the other]," answered Hough. "But I have to say I do and I have enjoyed this season probably the best out of all of them." Hough added she wasn't a big Carolla fan when the sixth season started but was "shocked" to learn he's actually a good guy. "I am so thrilled that I got to meet him. I know it's kind of sappy, but he's such an awesome guy," she said. "I really got to see him." I'M GOING TO BOTH OF THEM. THEY BOTH ADDED SO MUCH TO THE SHOW THIS SERIES. BTW, THANKS FOR BRINGING US THIS BLOG LP. I ADORE YOUR BLOGS AND THINK YOU ARE #1.

14. Yahoo! Music User -
I'll miss her on DWTS and Adam too. His humor always left me in rolling in fits of laughter, especially when he claimed he "ruined" Hough's clean-cut image. "She swears like a sailor now. She's turned atheist. She's gone democrat -- she doesn't like the red states anymore. She's turned her back on [her native] Salt Lake City," said Carolla. He'll be very missed, as will Julianne Hough.

15. Yahoo! Music User -
She and her dance partner were great on Tuesday night on the Jimmy Kimmel Live show. But this blog is equally enjoyable. Thank you LP for adding the video.

16. Yahoo! Music User -
She's a special young woman. Corolla and Hough paso doble routine during Monday night's performance episode broadcast was highly entertaining and despite receiving the lowest judges' score of the night, I think it was the most memorable. The routine was entertaining, as Carolla donned a Zorro-themed costume complete with a fake mustache and also performed part of the paso doble while riding a unicycle. BTW, he wore the mustache while on Kimmel. Sorry they won't be dancing this week. However, good luck to Julianne Hough - a talented and classy lady.

Like Adam said the night they were eliminated, she's an angel. "I had the time of my life. I lost 20-pounds of fat and gained 105-pounds of angel. I love this girl," said Adam, a reference to Julianne.

18. Yahoo! Music User -
Check out her official website everybody. BTW, Julianne will be treading on Helio Castroneves' turf when she sings the national anthem and some songs from her self-titled debut album at the Indianapolis 500 on May 25. She'll get to show her impressive musical talent to the world before The Greatest Spectacle in Racing. Yahoo!

PS: Lyndsey, I don't think any blogger works harder than you in bringing their readers so many udpates and worthwhile news bits. Keep up the great work and please know you are very very appreciated.

19. Yahoo! Music User -
Check out http://www.juliannehough.com/, her official website. Thanks for this space to discuss all things Julianne Hough. She is beyond talented. You're the BEST! LP.

http://www.juliannehough.com/#/home.aspx is great! I will have the song in my head all day. That's great news! Loved the video & loved you too Lyndsey. xox xox xox
