"Dancing With the Stars” judge Derek Hough and ‘DWTS’ co-host Julianne Hough seem to know something that none of us know, but neither of them seems ready to spill the beans.
‘Friends’ to the Rescue
The judge on the ABC dance competition took to Instagram to let fans know that something major seems to be in the works, but gave us zero details of what that thing is. Because of that, ‘DWTS’ fans have been going wild with theories of what the actual “thing” might be.
In the caption to the big tease of a video, Derek wrote: “Know some things but can’t share… yet.” He also tagged the show’s official Instagram page, as well as his sister, in the caption.
The video starts out with Derek, who happens to be wearing a sparkly suit, entering the dressing room of Julianne while mouthing the lines from a viral “Friends” scene featuring Joey (Matt LeBlanc) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) that has turned into a meme.
Derek asks the question: “Do you know something?” as his sister, who is wearing a silver sequin dress, asks the same question and whips around to look at him.
The siblings quip, with Derek saying: “I might know something,” while she responds back with: “I might know something, too.”
The banter continues, with Derek asking: “What’s the thing you know?” as she exclaims: “On no. I can’t tell you until you tell me what you know.”
Derek responds: “I can’t tell you what I know,” with Julianne emphasizing the same: “Well, then I can’t tell you what I know.”
The video comes to an end with Derek saying, “Ok fine,” putting the topic to rest.
The Fans Went Wild
No possible clue of what this video could mean. The only hint it possibly involved “DWTS” is the fact that he tagged them in the caption. Otherwise, it could be related to any of the other ventures the siblings are involved in.
Fans immediately wanted to know what the big news was about, with one commenter saying: “Tell me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” and another chiming in: “👏👏👏👏😂😂😂😂😂 CAN’T WAIT!”
Other fans decided to give their theories of what the news could be. This included the idea that Mark Ballas would be joining the show as a judge or that the Lautners would be joining the “DWTS” season 34 cast. Since they used the “Friends” sound, others thought maybe Aniston or LeBlanc might be part of the season 34 cast.
New Touring Dance Competition
This teasing video came just one day after the siblings announced their latest venture together called Ovation, which is a touring dance competition.
Derek told Parade: “We’ve had this long career, and it’s like, ‘Okay, now what’s next?’ And what’s next is we really want to create something that’s going to impact the next generation.”
The duo will be joined by fellow “DWTS” pros and couple Jenna Johnson and Val Chmerkovskiy, who will serve as program directors for Ovation.
