Not every Dancing With the Stars<\/em> champ through the years was deserving of their win, according to pro dancer Julianne Hough<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n The TV personality, 36, was asked which winner she \u201cstrongly disagreed\u201d with during an August 16 appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen<\/strong><\/em>. While Julianne hesitated for a moment, fellow guest Mickey Guyton<\/strong> quickly took a sip of her drink and mumbled a name under her breath.<\/p>\n \u201cI just said Bobby Bones<\/strong>,\u201d the country artist, 41, repeated.<\/p>\n \u201cI actually agree with you,\u201d Julianne chimed in. \u201cAnd I think it\u2019s because of the fan base. It\u2019s all about fan base on that show. He was not the best dancer.\u201d<\/p>\n Bobby, 44, won season 27 of Dancing With the Stars<\/em> in 2018 alongside partner Sharna Burgess<\/strong>. Fellow stars Milo Manheim<\/strong> and Evanna Lynch<\/strong> came in second and third place, respectively.<\/p>\n Julianne did not appear on Bobby\u2019s season of Dancing With the Stars<\/em>, but she has served as a dancer and judge in multiple seasons. Additionally, she began a stint as a cohost alongside Alfonso Ribeiro<\/strong> in 2023.<\/p>\n The Footloose<\/em> star also named some of the contestants who impressed her the most through the years, including Kellie Pickler<\/strong>, Xochitl Gomez<\/strong>, Iman<\/strong>, Adam Carolla<\/strong> and Apolo Ohno<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Julianne, who is returning as a cohost for season 33<\/a> on September 17, previously named the one celebrity that would make her want to dance on the show again. She last participated as a dancer during season 8 in 2009.<\/p>\n \u201cDid you know that Chris Hemsworth<\/strong> did the Australian Dancing With the Stars<\/em> and won? So I was like, \u2018I know I\u2019m hosting, but yo, if he comes back, I might dance,\u201d she joked during an August 13 appearance on Good Morning America<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n As for other celebrities she\u2019d like to see on the show, the actress named a beloved recently retired NFL star.<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t know if there are rumblings about this, but \u2026 one of the Kelce brothers would be amazing. I mean, Jason\u2019s not playing, right?\u201d she said, referring to Philadelphia Eagles alum Jason Kelce<\/strong>, who announced his retirement<\/a> at the end of the 2023-2024 season.<\/p>\n Judges Bruno Tonioli<\/strong>, Carrie Ann Inaba<\/strong> and Derek Hough<\/strong> have already been confirmed for Dancing With the Stars<\/em> season 33. However, the celebrities have yet to be officially announced.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m the same as everybody else,\u201d Julianne said of learning about the cast list. \u201cI never know who is on the show until we all find out.\u201d<\/p>\n In the wake of the 2024 Paris Olympics, many fans have expressed interest in seeing several Olympians on DWTS<\/em>.<\/p>\n \u201cOlympic athletes to have this season: Jordan, Ilona, and Stephen from the pommel horse!\u201d one person commented on the DWTS<\/em> season 33 announcement video on August 13, referring to Jordan Chiles<\/strong>, Ilona Maher<\/strong> and Stephen Nedoroscik<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Another fan wrote, \u201cManifesting our Pommel Horse icon Stephen and also Miss USA Noelia [Voigt]<\/strong> as stars this season.\u201d<\/p>\n No matter who joins the upcoming season, Julianne has made it clear that Dancing With the Stars<\/em> is exactly where she wants to be.<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s where I feel like I belong, being on that show,\u201d the Burlesque<\/em> star, who first joined the competition in season 4, said on GMA<\/em>. \u201cThis really is family.
