Julianne Hough Hangs Up Her Dancing Shoes

From The NY Daily News:

The perky, two-time winner and professional dancer has ended her run on “Dancing with the Stars.”

Utah-native Julianne Hough, who suffered from appendicitis during this season’s run, told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show Thursday that she was calling it quits.

“I really, really want to focus on the music and, you know, kind of be taken seriously a little bit,” she explained.

Hough, 20, has already released a pair of albums this year, the first was earlier this year, a country music CD titled “That Song in My Head.” The most recent, “Sounds of the Season,” was a holiday album that hit stores in October.

“It’s kind of hard to be on ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ and do singing,” Hough, who has been romantically linked to country singer Chuck Wicks, told Seacrest. And “music is where I wanna be.”

Hough, and celebrity partner Cody Linley, were elminated from ABC’s hit dance competition reality show earlier this week. She also performed one of the songs from her holiday album on Tuesday night.
