Dancing with the Stars' Julianne Hough once suffered a 'burst cyst' on live television
Julianne Hough once suffered a "burst cyst" live on TV. The 36-year-old dancer joined 'Dancing with the Stars' as a professional in 2007 and as she reflected upon her time on the show in time for its 20th anniversary, revealed that while it has been a "magical and emotional journey" so far, there was a time when she once had to deal with sudden pain, nausea, and potential bleeding whilst a live taping took place. She wrote on Instagram: "It's been an incredibly magical, unpredictable and emotional journey for anyone who has been a part of DWTS, and that's what makes it so special. It's not just about dancing, it's about courage. It's about what happens when you put yourself out there live and exposed in front of the world but held with so much care. We've all been changed by it. "I was 18 when I joined the show. Fresh out of Utah with $2000 in my pocket after training in london my whole childhood totally unsure of what was ahead. Who would've thought… "I ended up winning my first two seasons, had a cyst burst on live TV (yep, that happened), cried with Dr. Drew, danced with a unicycle - first prop used on the show besides a chair, judged alongside my friends @carrieanninaba @brunotonioliofficial and the ultimate legend Len, and now…. 20 years later… I'm co hosting the show that quite literally raised me. I've gotten to experience nearly every role this show has to offer, and each one has taught me something new. The 'Grease Live' star - who now co-hosts the show alongside Alfonso Ribeiro - did not elaborate on her health issues but simply thanked the show for the life it has given her and inssited she will be "forever grateful" for everyone involved. She said: "This show has given me a home, a family, and a deep sense of purpose. I'm forever grateful to everyone who's been a part of it. from the pros to the celebs to the crew to the fans who've shown up season after season.

In honor of Dancing with the Stars' 20th anniversary, Hough, 36, shared a lengthy Instagram post, reflecting on her journey with the franchise that she joined at 18 years old. Hough detailed her highs and lows on the show, including having a cyst burst on live television. 'I ended up winning my first two seasons, had a cyst burst on live TV (yep, that happened),' she wrote. Reflecting more on her experience, Hough described her journey as "incredibly magical, unpredictable and emotional." 'It's not just about dancing, it's about courage," she wrote. "It's about what happens when you put yourself out there live and exposed in front of the world but held with so much care. We've all been changed by it." She also said she's grateful that her role on the show has come full circle, from professional dancer 'fresh out of Utah with $2000 in my pocket after training in London' to "co hosting the show that quite literally raised me. I've gotten to experience nearly every role this show has to offer, and each one has taught me something new.' In the comment section, Hough's brother and DWTS judge, Derek Hough, praised his sister's strength for not missing a beat while dealing with a cyst. Healthline describes a cyst as 'a small pocket of tissue often filled with fluid or pus.' John Hopkins Medicine says 'a cyst that ruptures may cause no symptoms, or only mild symptoms. Ruptured cysts that cause mild symptoms can often be managed with pain medicine.'

In a June 2020 Women's Health cover story, Hough detailed her journey with endometriosis, the reproductive condition in which uterine tissue grows outside of the uterus, causing cramping and chronic pain. Hough explained how focusing on her energy helped manage her pain symptoms. 'I will tell you, through this transformation of really connecting back to my truth, I haven't had symptoms of endometriosis because of the love and kindness I'm giving to my body,' Hough, who founded dance-based fitness program, KINRGY, said.

She continued, 'I believe there's stress, shame, guilt, and suppression of female energy that's associated with endometriosis, so de-layering that has really helped.' The last time Hough hit the stage as a DWTS pro was in November 2025, saying, 'I wish I could just get out there' before revealing her dance costume she had hidden underneath her dress. 'Seeing all these amazing dances and dancers out there all season long reminds me of when I was a pro back in the day. And oh, my gosh, I wish I could just get out there and dance sometimes. In fact, why don't we do that?,' she said. Read the original article on People

Julianne Hough Names Her DWTS Mount Rushmore
Julianne Hough is one of the all-time greats of Dancing With the Stars. She was only on it as a pro for five seasons, but she won twice in those five years, taking home the Mirrorball Trophy in back-to-back seasons when she was just 18 and 19 years old. She has also been nominated for three Primetime Emmy Awards for Best Choreography, winning in 2015. So, she's certainly qualified to decide which four contestants would make it on the Dancing With the Stars Mount Rushmore, i.e. the four GOATs (greatest of all time) - though she acknowledges that there have been so many good ones over the years that it's hard to narrow it down to just four. "Oh, this is so hard. I'll go with Emmitt Smith, Apolo Anton Ohno, Iman Shumpert and Bindi Irwin," said Hough in a new interview with Variety. For the record, Smith won season 3 and came back and took 4th place on season 15 both times with partner Cheryl Burke; Ohno won season 4 with Hough and then came back and took 5th place in season 15 with partner Karina Smirnoff; Shumpert won season 30 with partner Daniella Karagach; and Irwin won season 21 with partner (and now judge) Derek Hough, Julianne's older brother. Do you agree with her answers? Hough did go on to list a few more possibilities and said it's so hard to choose, especially without a list in front of her. "There are so many greats I could've included, such as Amber Riley, Jordan Fisher and Zendaya. The list goes on. Honestly, I wish I had a full list in front of me. It's impossible to choose!" said Hough. The 36-year-old dancer also talked about playing a Ginger Rogers-esque character in the Maggie Gyllenhaal-directed film The Bride, which comes out in 2026. Hough said that the Golden Age of Hollywood is definitely her wheelhouse, but she wants to bring it forward with more present-day narratives. "The moment I read for it, I had to get it. Maggie is such a rich, detail-oriented director, and working alongside people like Christian Bale, Jake Gyllenhaal and Bobby Jean Smith was mind-blowing. The style, the sound, the movement - it's going to be uncomfortable in the best way," said Hough, adding, "The Golden Age of Hollywood is really my genre, not just for nostalgia, but because I want to reimagine it. Bring that glamour and talent-forward energy, but shift the outdated narratives." Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved
