Days after Tyra Banks announced her departure from Dancing With The Stars, the hit television show replaced the supermodel quickly by adding in long-time pro-Julianne Hough. Hough will co-host the show alongside Alfonso Ribeiro.

Hough is mainly known for her time as a pro dancer on the beloved competition show. Hough has also been a judge on DWTS and will now add hosting to her legendary resume. Hough will be reunited with her brother Derek Hough, who is on the judging panel alongside Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli. Derek, just like his sister, was a long-time pro on the show.
Hough’s co-host is DWTS season 19 champion, Alfonso Ribeiro. Ribeiro joined the show last season as Banks’ co-host and was loved by fans worldwide. Ribeiro was especially loved for his entertaining banter with season 31 runner-up and former Bachelorette, Gabby Windey.

Not only has Hough had an unbelievably successful DWTS career, but she has also found great success in the acting world. She has starred in films such as Footloose, Burlesque, and the very funny Dirty Grandpa, in which she starred alongside Zac Efron, Robert De Niro, Zoey Deutch, and Aubrey Plaza.
