Julianne Hough gets a bit edgy in this inside shot from the April 2015 issue of Allure magazine.
Here’s what the 26-year-old actress and Dancing With The Stars judge had to say:
On growing up as a Mormon: “I am so grateful that I was raised LDS. I believe in their morals and their standards—and what they give out to the world, the service. I would do a mission, but not for the Mormon church.”
On her training: “It was specific to ballroom or more so Latin dancing, because it’s a partnership, a very sexual kind of dancing. The moves are more mature. You’re like, ‘Well, I’m doing this on the dance floor, but then I’m supposed to be a little kid, but I don’t feel like a little kid’. It gets confusing.”
On her controversial Halloween costume last year: “Ignorance is sometimes not bliss; I really had no idea what I was doing, and it was all out of fun and respect for the character. I don’t even know how to talk about it because it’s such a sensitive topic. It makes me so sad to think that I was that dumb. I learned a big lesson.”
