The dancer was forced todefendher uploads last month after filming herself in a sauna, looking noticeably thin, with the contour of her ribcage visible under her skin while wearing a blue LED anti-aging mask.
The post divided her audience once again, with one side labeling the clip as “bizarre,” as the host thrust her hips in a suggestive manner while wearing the strange-looking mask.
“Grief, loss. Sadness and fear also get stored in the body and we hold on to that in different ways. I made it a huge priority to accept, express, process and release a lot of emotions over the years,” she wrote at the time.
Her latest “striptease”videoshowcases such playfulness, changing from a black dress and high-heeled red latex boots into an elegant, olive-colored gala outfit. The dancer removes her bra at one point, teasing the audience with her bare back before tossing it above her head.

Julianne Hough madeher debuton the famous dance competition series as a professional dancer in its fourth season back in 2007. The then 18-year-old delighted judges and audiences alike, going on to become a fixture of the production for most of its run.
As a judge, she has served as both a guest and a permanent member of the panel for more than 5 seasons, capturing the public’s attention for her honest, sometimesrough commentarywhen scoring participants.
“You can always count on me to tell the truth,” she said in aninterview. “It’s not because I want to be harsh, it’s all about helping whoever the dancer is to be better for next week.”
The dancer defended her choice to showcase her body, explaining that she feels safe and happy in her own skin
Hough did not remain oblivious to the negative attention the videos of her body generated but remained firm in her decision to continue uploading them, reassuring viewers that she was simply showing her most authentic self.
“My goofy side is a reflection of how safe I feel in my own skin,” she noted. “I saw somewhere that when kids are the mostplayfuland weird versions of themselves it means they are the safest to do so,” the dancer explained.
“I was very self-accepting growing up, then something switched in middle school,” Hough confessed toRedbook Magazinein 2017. “I would compare myself to everyone and later I did a film where I basically was told I was fat every day, yet I was the skinniest I’d ever been.”
The host explained how she developed her attitude as a coping mechanism to deal with the pressures of being a celebrity, defaulting to acting “completely crazy or goofy” in an attempt to recapture the freedom she felt as a kid “before all of that happened.”
“Somebody, please help her. Next she’ll be twirling like Britney. She has a career and gets a lot of attention already. What is happening to her?” asked one concerned viewer.
“You’d think someone as attractive as her would already be getting enough attention from men. There’s no need for this,” another pointed out.
“Why is she so desperate for attention lately? Did something terrible happen in her personal life?” a viewer asked.
“It’s time to set up an Only Fans,” another wrote.
On the other hand, her followers jumped to her defense, stating that as a dancer, her body is what she uses to communicate and work, and that the criticism is being blown out of proportion.
“So many women are putting down another woman for her choice of displaying her body on social media! Leave Julianne Hough alone!”
“What happened to her?” wrote one viewer, as others joined in to share their thoughts on the dancer’s videos
