Julianne and Kellie both took the stage in Washington DC on Tuesday for the fourth annual Challenge Champions Gala. Dale Earnhardt Jr, was also at the Gala which was hosted by the National Guard Youth Foundation.

Giving back is the best way to go!

Chuck Wicks performed over the weekend in Mt. Laurel New Jersey at Prospectors Restaurant. He spent some time canoodling on his tour bus with his main squeeze and dancing partner Julianne and then took to the stage for a rocking performance.

Thanks to Jessica for these great photos!

Now that they are dancing together on Dancing With The Stars, Chuck and Julianne are blogging together. Granted, it sounds like this is just Chuck writing, but they did sign-off together… love is in the air for these two. We’ve seen how intimate two people can get while dancing, we expect to see fireworks with these two.

Julianne is joining him on part of his tour so she can teach him the steps, now that is dedication!

FIRST WEEK OF REHEARSALS FOR “DANCING WITH THE STARS”

So today is our 2nd day of rehearsal!! Julianne is still fighting off having the “FLU”, which i feel so bad for her but she’s a trooper and she’s pushing through the rehearsals. It’s official!! I’ve now confirmed i’m a really bad dancer!! lol….but i have a GREAT teacher and i will try my best not to fall on my face come march 9th!
We just did the title shoot for DWTS out in LA and then took a Red Eye last night to Pittsburg, PA where i have a show tonight. Julianne will be with me the entire time teaching me on the road while touring. I have to admit it’s definitely a lot to juggle but we’re doing it!! She is finding it very funny with how serious and focused i am in practice!! i think she’s always used to me joking around!! But i told her to “Crack her whip” because i need it especially to learn these CRAZY steps she’s showing me!! lol
I will keep you all posted on a daily basis or as much as I can!! Julianne said “HELLO” as she is reading this over my shoulder…WE will keep blogging and keeping you up to speed with everything! This is going to be a lot of FUN and I hope you all have fun watching me learn how to DANCE!! haha

CHUCK AND JULIANNE

Chuck Wicks and Julianne Hough are way too good looking together, it’s just not fair! Now, they are pairing up for the upcoming season of Dancing With The Stars. We think they’re a shoe-in to win. However, they are going to have to compete with Jewel and her hubby, professional bull rider Ty Murray. Jewel and Ty will be competing against one another.

We can’t wait for this season! Yay for a country take over!!!

Julianne Hough just posted this video about her upcoming year and new years resolutions. She will be touring with George Strait later this year and in the meantime is working on writing for her next album.

Touring with George Strait?!?!? WHOA! Way to go Julianne.

Check out her video below.

Julianne Hough - Excited about 2009 and New Years Resolution!

…Dierks Bentley, Rodney Atkins and Julianne Hough will be joining Montgomery Gentry at the Sommet Center tonight to kick off Sprint Sound & Speed. It’s a NASCAR fans dream weekend, full of memorabilia and the chance to meet your favorite drivers.

If you go to the show, let us know how it is and send us some pics to post!

A list of everyone who will be at the event this weekend - drivers and artists - after the jump.

Has Snoop Dogg gone country?!?! Not quite, but his video ‘My Medicine’ has cameos by some of country’s hottest stars. Brad Paisley, Julianne Hough, and legend Willie Nelson are all in this video. We love that country stars and ‘everyone else’ are working together. Who doesn’t love to see totally random people show up in a video; think Jason Alexander in Paisley’s ‘Online’.

Enjoy!

It’s official, Julianne Hough will not be returning to ‘Dancing With The Stars’ next season so she can focus on her music full time. We have loved seeing her dance every week, but we think she has got lots of talent so we’re excited to her jump head first into the country scene.

Check out this behind the scenes video of her single “My Hallelujah Song”.
