The cast of the "Footloose" remake have been on their feet this week.
On Tuesday, former "Dancing with the Stars" performer (and two-time winner) Julianne Hough marked her return to the show, which is taped in Los Angeles, with a special performance alongside her "Footloose" co-star, and fellow dancer, Kenny Wormald. She also performed with her brother, Derek, one of the show's professional dancers.
Less than 24 hours later, the two co-stars were on the other side of the country in New York for a special red-carpet screening of "Footloose."
Hough, who is battling a cold, spoke with us about her emotional return to her old 'DWTS" stomping ground.
"It's pretty crazy but you gotta love it," said of her chaotic itinerary. "Sometimes you get a little sniffle and a little cold, but it doesn't matter at the end of the day."
In fact, tit was more than a sniffle that misted her eyes Tuesday at "DWTS."
" I knew that going back there and promoting something like "Footloose" on the show was going to be overwhelming," Hough said. "But I haven't done anything live for so long, so to hear the crowd and the applause and just seeing all the faces that I knew on the show and all my friends, it was a little overwhelming."
Speculation has intensified as to whether this new "Footloose" will in fact live up to the 1984 Kevin Bacon-starring original. Audiences will get to see for themselves when the remake opens in theaters nationwide this weekend.
