DWTS 12 – Derek Hough Attends The Southern Women’s Show In Nashville
Guess who took this awesome picture of Derek and a lucky fan at the Southern Women’s Show in Nashville, Tennessee yesterday? Our very own Princess Heidi!!!! Yesterday, Heidi attended the event where Derek made an appearance. He answered any questions from the audience which included questions on his personal life, dancing, and Dancing With The Stars. Below is a take from an article at Pure Derek Hough. But, be sure to travel to the Main page because it will take you to more pictures and some super cool video coverage filmed up close by the Princess herself. Note how she is not finished reporting on this special event. Part 2 is coming later with even more videos.
Anyway, I have video coming later but I thought I would share these pictures now. Some things you won’t hear on the videos is that Derek was pretty happy about being at a women’s show. He has “a special person” in his life (said in response to a question of if he is dating anyone) – this was said early on before he makes a comment on one of the videos that is pretty funny. You’ll know it when you see it – the two comments were close enough together to be telling. He was asked who he was close to in terms of the other pros and he mentioned Mark, Cheryl and Maks specifically then said he was friends with all of them and had no issues with any of them. He was asked how he felt about Ryan Seacrest and he said he’s a cool guy and that he (Ryan) hasn’t done anything to make him (Derek) mad yet – something like that. Paraphrasing, of course. Later on he mentioned that Julianne has sold her house in Nashville and is in LA now (when not in Miami for Rock of Ages) – then he was really cute when he said “Gee, I don’t know WHY she would move to LA” and everyone laughed.
Wow, Im sure Princess Heidi is having a blast over there so im happy for her 😀 Glad to see Derek in the good ole south again too. I actually dont get the joke about Jullianne moving to LA xD Not anything to do with DWTS, right?
Zach, he was asked about Ryan Seacrest and he said that they all got along fine, and then later he talked about Julianne selling her Nashville house and made the joke about not knowing why she would move to LA, it was a reference to her and Ryan being closer.
Had NO idea he was coming to N’ville (where I live) 🙁 Guess I need to watch the news more often 😉
Princess Heidi, Thanks for sharing this. You are one lucky gal!
Did Derek mention how the filming of his new movie is coming along? I know he’s going to be awesome, can’t wait.
I just took a look at Heidi’s Pure Derek Hough site. The clip from Better With you is so good! Derek’s a natural! Can’t wait to see the episode on April 25th. Thanks Heidi for all your latest Derek news – you lucky girl you!!! I’m surprised you remembered to turn the camera on and off. Were you able to keep yourself from staring with mouth wide open and not drool?????
Allie, they’re still in rehearsals – he was only in Nashville for a few hours, had to go straight back to Toronto. He’s been working with NappyTabs – and NappyTabs tweeted that he and his costar were doing Great on the choreo.
I’m pretty composed, actually, Meggie. 🙂 Totally bummed about some of the stuff I didn’t get on camera – like his comments about whether DWTS really is like a family, his comment about having “a special someone” in his life right now and the pros he’s closest to. Ah well.
That Better with You episode is going to be pretty good, ain’t it? 🙂
Heidi, I loved it! Excellent video and great pictures. Derek seems to be so comfortable on the stage talking, answering questions and has a comedian sense of timing. Hes’ so handsome. Love that thundering applause from the fans when Derek first came on stage. Thanks for all you do.
Love the way Derek says in one of Heidi’s clips that he’s also rooting for Cheryl “Cole” and then corrects himself and says Cheryl Burke! Not hard to know who is on his mind! lol
I know you have been working’ hard over at Pure Derek Hough, Heidi (and I think Courtney’s away too), but I have a big cravin’ for Cheese at the moment. Any Cheesecake in sight???
