Good news and bad news for ”Dancing with the Stars” fans. Julianne Hough is opting for music over dancing. Instead of performing on the hit show, she is going on tour with Toby Keith, starting next month. Her first show will be February 6 in Louisville, Kentucky and then February 22, in Des Moines Iowa. Later this spring she will switch courses and be one of the opening acts for country great, George Strait, when he starts his summer tour in Charlotte, North Carolina on May 15th. Hough released her debut album last year and is very excited to focus on the next. She says she learned a lot by doing the first one but wants the next one to be even better. Hough got her big break on DWTS and won back to back seasons, #4 and #5. She was also the youngest professional dancer on the show. Her first win was with Apolo Anto Ohno, the Olympic Gold medal speed skater, and her next win was with Helio Castroneves, who is a 2 time Indianapolis 500 winner. So a good thing for Julianne, but she will surely missed this coming season.
Although season 8 doesn’t start until March people are already speculating who will be the next group of celebrity dancers. One name that has come and gone was Cindy McCain, the Senators wife. John however set the record straight on “Larry King Live” and said they did discuss the possibility,s but in the end decided it was not the right thing for Cindy at this time. Two other names that are swirling on the gossip vines are Sherri Shepard from The View, who is a huge fan, as well as perhaps Kevin Federline, who is in desperate need of some face time to get his career back on track. ABC is set to make their official announcement some time February. Until then it just us thinking about who we hope they choose.
