American dancer, actress, and singer, Julianne Hough is the new host of Dancing With The Stars.
The news comes on the heels of Tyra Banks announcing she will not return for Season 32.
Julianne Hough, a former pro dancer and judge on the long-running competition series, is rejoining DWTS as a host for its 32nd season.
In a statement to Variety, Julianne said: “It is such an honor to be rejoining ‘Dancing with the Stars’ as co-host. The show holds such a special place in my heart from the many years and different roles I have had the privilege of being a part of.
“The incredible team that brings the ballroom to life every night has been my family for the past 17 years.
“I am so excited to reunite with Alfonso, Carrie Ann, Bruno, Derek, the unbelievably talented pros, and the amazing cast on the dance floor.”
She continued: “The energy is magnetic every time you step foot in to the ballroom and I can’t wait to feel it again — and of course to share it all with the absolute best and most loyal fans — for another exciting season.”
She’ll co-host the Disney+ show alongside Alfonso Ribeiro.
Hough will also rejoin her brother, Derek, on Dancing With the Stars.
He serves as a judge alongside Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli.
Julianne Hough joined Dancing With the Stars as one of its professional dancers in the show’s fourth season in 2007. She and her celebrity partners (Apolo Ohno and Hélio Castroneves) were crowned champions in seasons four and five.
