Julianne Hough |
A pro dancer on ABC's hit show
"Dancing with the Stars." Julianne debuted and won with her partner,
speed skater Apolo Anton Ohno. born into a Mormon family with three
other siblings, Julianne had dancing in their DNA. Both sets of
grandparents were dancers and their parents actually met on a ballroom
dance team in college.
From People Magazine
Those shimmy minis and backless wonders that
Julianne Hough dons on Dancing with the Stars? A weakness, she
sighs. "I'm the first to admit it: I like being sexy! I always wear the
shorter shorts and my dad's like, 'Cover up!'" she says. "Modesty,
that's my biggest downfall." It's definitely a challenge for any
19-year-old in Hollywood—but especially for Hough, who's a practicing
Mormon. |
