Timeline

1929

Hough later became a judge on the series beginning with its 29th season.

1985

Derek Bruce Hough (born May 17, 1985 ) is an American professional Latin and ballroom dancer, choreographer, actor and singer.

2002

Hough won the WDSF World Latin Championship in 2002, and the Blackpool U-21 Latin title with Aneta Piotrowska in 2003.

He has won the LA Outstanding Dancer of the Year and New York Dance Alliance Outstanding Dance awards.

2007

From 2007 to 2016, Hough was a professional dancer on the ABC dance competition series Dancing with the Stars, winning the show a record-breaking six times with his celebrity partners.

For his work, Hough received 14 nominations for the Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Choreography, winning the award 4 times.

2013

On September 22, 2013, for the first time, the category for Outstanding Choreography for the Emmy Awards was moved to the Primetime Live Show, and all of the nominees in the category were to create and perform a number with the host of the show, Neil Patrick Harris.

Hough, who was nominated for Dancing with the Stars, was part of that number, along with the other nominees.

Ken Ehrlich, the executive producer of the show, stated, "It's definitely going to be an original number, something that hasn't been done before. It's going to utilize the talents of all of them to put this number together as choreographers."

Hough then went on to win the Emmy Award for Outstanding Choreography.

In 2013, Hough worked with world champion ice dancers Meryl Davis and Charlie White on a number for their upcoming 2014 Sochi winter Olympics short dance program that had to contain quickstep and foxtrot rhythms.

Davis and White went on to win the gold medal with the routine.

Their win made Olympic history, marking the first Olympic title in the event for the United States.

About this opportunity, Hough said: I started working on a very special routine that's not for the show [Dancing with the Stars].

I'm choreographing a number for our world champion ice dancers Meryl Davis and Charlie White to perform at the Olympics next year.

They graciously asked me to do it, and how could I say no? It's truly an honor, and they're amazing.

2014

On March 18, 2014, Hough, along with his sister, Julianne, announced a summer tour of over 40 cities across the U.S. and Canada, called "Move Live on Tour", which would include dancing and singing from both of them, and the appearance of a group of dancers employed by the Houghs who were chosen through auditions.

They embarked on the sold-out tour on May 25, 2014, in Park City, Kansas and ended it in Los Angeles on July 26, 2014.

Due to the success of ticket sales and several sold-out venues before the tour had officially kicked off, several more shows were added to the tour schedule, which also sold out.

For the tour choreography, the Hough siblings collaborated with Nappytabs.

Following the success of the 2014 tour and high demand, the Houghs announced the return of "Move Live on Tour" in the summer of 2015.

2015

Hough has also appeared as an actor on stage, appearing at the West End premiere of Footloose: The Musical at the Novello Theatre and as well as the 2015 New York Spring Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.

In film and television, he has starred in the film Make Your Move and had a recurring role in the ABC musical-drama Nashville.

On September 12, 2015, Hough won his second Emmy Award for Outstanding Choreography, alongside Julianne Hough and Tessandra Chavez.

This was both Julianne Hough's and Chavez's first Emmy win for outstanding choreography.

Including the two nominations that he went on to win, Hough has been nominated for nine Emmy Awards for choreography.

2016

In 2016, he appeared as Corny Collins in NBC's live musical TV-production of Hairspray Live!

2017

From 2017 to 2020, Hough served as a judge on the NBC dance competition series World of Dance.

Hough grew up the fourth of five children in a Latter-day Saint family in Sandy, Utah, a suburb of Salt Lake City.

He is the son of Marianne and Bruce Hough, who was twice chairman of the Utah Republican Party and ran for Utah's 2nd congressional district in 2023, and has four sisters, Sharee, Marabeth, Katherine, and Julianne.

All of his grandparents were dancers, and his parents met while on a ballroom dancing team in college in Idaho.

He is the second cousin of musicians Riker, Rydel, Rocky, Ryland Lynch and Ross Lynch from R5; their maternal grandmothers are sisters.

When Hough was 12, his divorcing parents sent him to London to live and study with dance coaches Corky and Shirley Ballas.

Hough's sister Julianne joined him in London several months later.

Originally intending to stay for three months, Hough remained in London for ten years (Julianne returned after five years).

The Ballases helped tutor the two Hough children alongside their own son, Mark Ballas, schooling them at the Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts.

They received training in song, theater, gymnastics, and many forms of dance, including jazz, ballet, and tap.

The three children formed their own pop music trio 2B1G ("2 Boys, 1 Girl") and performed at dance competitions in the UK and the U.S., and showcased UK television shows.

Hough subsequently taught at the Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts.

As well as being trained in many forms of dance, Hough can also play the piano, guitar, drums and bass.
