Did you see Derek’s Mom?

Posted in: Derek Hough by John on October 13, 2008

I apologize that we haven’t been able to post more lately. Marriann has been running back and forth to LA and so she hasn’t had much time or connectivity to be able to upload pictures to the site. We’re working to rectify the situation and get things posted more regularly.

In the meantime, in a game similar to Where’s Waldo, did anyone see Derek’s mom in the audience on tonight’s show? I’ll give you a hint, she was on camera multiple times.

Also, for those keeping score, last week Marriann was very excited about something on the show. If you guessed that it was Julianne and Derek dancing together, then you were right. Marriann was so happy to be able to see her son and daughter dancing together on the show.

Marriann (Julianne’s Mom) is in California for tonight’s Dancing with the Stars so she asked me to post a quick note from her experience last night.

Last night was a special event at Disneyland for Miley Cyrus’s Sweet 16 birthday party. Makes sense that Julianne would be invited since she’s dancing with Hannah Montana star Cody Linley. Julianne along with her mom, sister and her nieces and nephews and Cody attended the event. Marriann described how they got all dressed up in uncomfortable heels and headed to Disneyland in a limo. Sounds like they had quite the red carpet (although it was purple since it’s Miley Cyrus’s favorite color) experience with tons of fans asking for autographs.

They were able to go on the Indiana Jones ride as a family where Julianne told them they all had to scream really loud since that would make it more fun.

Marriann snapped a bunch of pictures from the event which we’ll be posting soon.

Marriann also said that tomorrow’s Dancing with the Stars includes something very exciting for her as a mother. Remember to vote tonight!

Introduction to Pure Julianne Hough

Posted in: Julianne Hough by John on October 4, 2008

Glad you could stop by Pure Julianne Hough. As I posted in the previous post, we’re just getting started on this website covering Julianne Hough. It’s the beginning of what we believe will be a great experience for Julianne Hough’s mom to interact with Julianne’s fans and for Julianne’s mom to be able to share her experience and perspective on her daughter Julianne.

Who we are?
My name is John and through an interesting set of coincidences (and love of Dancing with the Stars), I was introduced to Julianne Hough’s mom Marriann Nelson. Marriann had this great desire to be able to share her story about Julianne and Derek Hough and I have quite a bit of background in creating websites and marketing them. Pure Julianne Hough and Pure Julianne Hough are the offspring of our meeting each other.

Yes, Marriann is the real mom of Julianne Hough.

The plan is for Marriann to do most of the writing about her children along with snapping plenty of pictures and possibly posting audio or videos of Julianne also. I’ll certainly be assisting Marriann and you may also find me writing a thing or to about Julianne Hough myself.

My guess is that if you’re reading this blog, then you know who Julianne Hough is quite well. However, for those less informed he’s a partial biography of some of Julianne Hough’s most significant accomplishments.

Julianne HOUGH

Julianne Hough (born July 20, 1988) is an American professional ballroom dancer turned country music singer.

Hough has won Dancing with the Stars twice with partners Apolo Anton Ohno and Helio Castroneves. She’s currently dancing with Cody Linley. ABC’s 20/20 has called her as one of the “very best dancers on the planet.”

Hough was signed to Mercury Nashville Records in December 2007. Her self-titled debut album was released May 20, 2008, debuting at #1 on the Billboard Country Album chart and #3 on the Billboard 200.
