Julianne Hough has confirmed that she will not be returning to Dancing With the Stars next season.

Booooo!!

Julianne says that she wants to focus on her movie career.  What happened to her music career?  Hough is going to be in the remake of 80s classic Footloose, and Burlesque.  She is currently filming Burlesque which is set to premiere November 2010.

Julianne Hough became a fan favorite when she was paired with speed skater Anton Ohno on season 4 of DWTS and won.  She was instantly the sweetheart of the dance floor there after.  She most recently danced with boyfriend Chuck Wicks on the show.  This isn’t the first break she has taken from the ballroom.  Back in 2008 she took time off to focus on her music career.  She even got to tour with Wicks, it was shortly thereafter that they competed on DWTS.

Julianne is cute a button and has the talent to back it up.  She has already excelled at singing, dancing and I assume she will kill it on the big screen.  Nothing like a triple threat, that’s like pure gold in Hollywood!

It is not known if Julianne is leaving for good, she is quite vague when asked, just stating that she will not be returning for the spring 2010 season.  I would think that she wont be quick to turn her back on the platform that launched her into the spotlight.  At least one more time around the dance floor please.
