Inside Julianne Hough's Close Relationship With Brother Derek Hough

A little sibling rivalry never hurt anybody. Derek and Julianne Hough have seemingly done it all with each other. Julianne joined "Dancing With the Stars" and won the mirrorball trophy for Seasons 4 and 5, per Deadline. Derek then became a professional dancer on the show, and claimed six mirrorball trophies, per Parade. Both have also judged on the show. Even though there's a bit of a competition between the siblings, they have fun with it.

"When we were little, competing, I always wanted to beat him, because I'm his baby sister," Julianne told Entertainment Tonight in 2018. "I remember I beat him a couple times and would never let him live it down ... To have somebody that close, that's like in the same world as you, that understands it ... we've both been very, very lucky to be each other's support. He's rad. I love him."

She also mentioned that she's learned her older brother's language, especially when he's in his creative state of mind. She said that their minds working together is a "good blend" and a "good mix." And now, they even joke about their rivalry, as they performed a Disney medley based around it in their Move Beyond tour in 2017. It seems that the rivalry is just for fun, as they always support one another no matter what.
