According to Star magazine, Julianne and Derek Hough might be fan favorites, but “they’re less than popular on the set of Dancing with the Stars.”

The tabloid’s sources claim the brother and sister have “alienated” cast and crew members with their “snobby behavior and diva demands.”

Julianne left the program in 2009 but recently returned to perform with her Footloose co-star Kenny Wormald.

“Everyone behind the scenes is upset that the show is so centered around the Houghs,” explains a so-called “insider” for Star, adding that irritated personnel have “jokingly retitled the show Dancing with the Houghs!”

A different source insists that fame has gone to Julianne’s head, with producers “generally fawning all over her” during her stint last week.

Meanwhile, Derek is supposedly “always requesting special treatment” and walking around “like he’s Brad Pitt,” says Star. “His attitude is wearing thin on the rest of the cast and crew.”

Uh-huh.

First of all, we find it hard to believe that Julianne Hough could return to “Dancing with the Stars” for one night and be a completely different person than the pro well-liked by fans and colleagues alike for many years.

Meanwhile, no one involved with DWTS could corroborate Star‘s premise that either Hough had “alienated” anyone else there.

A source close to the show tells Gossip Cop the brother and sister duo “aren’t divas in any way, shape or form” and rejects Star‘s allegation that anyone demands “special treatment.”

Hugh Jackman‘s Real Steel, once again, knocks out the competition with a weekend take of $16.3 million, just ahead of the Julianne Hough-Kenny Wormald Footloose remake, which earned $16.1 million.

Coming in a distant third was the horror film, The Thing, which made $8.7 million in ticket sales.

The George Clooney-Ryan Gosling political drama The Ides of March and Dolphin Tale came in fourth and fifth places with $7.5 million and $6.3 million, respectively.

Rounding out the Top 10 were Moneyball ($5.5 million), 50/50 ($4.3 million), Courageous ($3.4 million), The Big Year ($3.3 million) – whose stars (Steve Martin, Jack Black, Owen Wilson) couldn’t save it from flopping, and The Lion King ($2.7 million).

“Julianne Hough & Ryan Seacrest: Have They Split Up?” asks HollywoodLife, which earlier wrongly speculated that Hough and her Footloose co-star Kenny Wormald are more than just friends.

Now HollywoodLife claims to have “insider info” about Hough and Seacrest’s relationship.

Let’s check it out!

“Ryan and Julianne haven’t been able to spend very much time together, especially as of late,” relates the site’s source, noting, “This schedule has been very straining on their relationship.”

Wow!

So thanks to HollywoodLife’s super-knowledgable “insider,” we’ve learned that the most notoriously busy host in show business and an actress promoting a major movie have hectic schedules!

HollywoodLife just keeps digging itself a deeper hole, because there’s nothing going on between Hough and Wormald.

And as a source close to Seacrest tells Gossip Cop, he and Hough “are stronger than ever.”

Of course, don’t be surprised that HollywoodLife gets so many stories wrong. Apparently, its staffers like this guy are too busy doing other things instead of fact-checking.

Julianne Hough and her Footloose co-star Kenny Wormald reportedly danced at a party marking the film’s New York premiere on Wednesday night.

This makes sense, of course, because they’re the lead actors in a movie about dancing.

Ah, but HollywoodLife smells scandal!

Hough’s boyfriend, Ryan Seacrest, happened to miss the event at nightclub SL, leading the site to overreact to reports from so-called “eyewitnesses” about the dance floor “chemistry” between Hough and Wormald.

A “source” tells HollywoodLife, “They were dancing all over each other and people kept asking each other if they were dating! They looked to be really into each other… it got people talking.”

Amazing!

Because Gossip Cop totally noticed that same “chemistry” when Hough and Wormald secretly got “SUPER cozy” in front of millions of people on “Dancing with the Stars” this week!

Or maybe, you know, that “chemistry” comes from the fact that they’re starring together in a dancing movie.

A rep for Wormald assures Gossip Cop the HollywoodLife speculation is “absolutely untrue” and confirms that he and Hough just have a “great working relationship.”

No one, not even the anti-dance parents in Footloose, can overreact quite like HollywoodLife!

Julianne Hough is the latest celebrity to be hacked, but it doesn’t seem like any of images purportedly leaked from her phone will challenge her generally wholesome reputation.

While other starlets have exposed quite a bit in private shots that were spread online, the Hough photos that are out occasionally show her in a bikini, but she’s mostly just on vacation with boyfriend Ryan Seacrest, goofing around with family, filming various projects and otherwise seeming like the happy dancer-actress she is.

No nudity, no drugs, no dirt.

The “Hollywood Leaks” hacking group has reportedly taken credit for the Hough haul.

Unfortunately for them, it doesn’t look like they dug up anything scandalous.

John Stamos was on ”Jimmy Kimmel Live” to talk about his production of “Hairspray” at the Hollywood Bowl, and used the opportunity to rag on Ryan Seacrest.

The former “Full House” star, in describing his “Hairspray” role to Jimmy Kimmel, said, ”I play Corny Collins, he’s sort of a DJ, he hosts a music show. Sort of like a straight Ryan Seacrest.”

Stamos taking the joke further, added, ”Ryan’s a friend… We’ve kissed.”

Just yesterday, Gossip Cop busted a false report that Seacrest was jealous about his girlfriend Julianne Hough getting too close to her hunky Rock of Ages co-star.

There’s trouble in Ryan Seacrest and Julianne Hough‘s relationship, claims Star, and it’s because she’s been “cozying up to hunky Diego Boneta,” her co-star in Rock of Ages, which is shooting in Miami.

An alleged “source” tells the tabloid, “Ryan blew a gasket when he saw pictures of Julianne and Diego splashing by the beach and at a pool in Miami.”

And from Hough’s side, says Star‘s “source,” while Seacrest “showers her with flowers sent to her trailer, she wants a guy who actually spends time with her. Ryan is always so busy and makes excuses about why he can’t come visit her.”

Throughout this all, writes Star, “The former Dancing with the Star beauty has found a fun and very attractive companion in Diego.”

So, is “Three’s A Crowd,” as the magazine notes in its headline about Seacrest, Hough and Boneta?

No.

A source close to Seacrest tells Gossip Cop claims that “Ryan blew a gasket” when seeing photos of his girlfriend with a co-star are pure fiction.

These rumors weren’t true two months ago, and they’re still untrue.

There are NO jealousy issues.

We’re told the couple is perfectly fine.

Most people saw pictures of a bikini-clad Julianne Hough kissing Diego Boneta for a scene in Rock of Ages and thought nothing of it.

That’s because most people who read celebrity news sites are adults with basic reasoning skills.

They understand that sometimes people dress up as other people (or “characters”) and are filmed for motion pictures. These “characters” behave according to a script, which might, say, have them frolic in the waves and kiss.

It’s all pretend.

When adults who use common sense see “characters” in action, they grasp this concept.

Unfortunately, HollywoodLife also saw the Hough-Boneta photos.

The site claims “Dancing with the Stars” pro Hough’s beau Ryan Seacrest is “upset” about the pictures and “not happy” that his girlfriend is “smooching another man.”

Ooooh-kay.

Let’s see how far HollywoodLife goes with this (ridiculous) premise!

“The ‘Dancing with the Stars’ cast and crew were told not to discuss Julianne’s kissing scene in her new movie while in the CBS building,” a so-called “insider” tells the site.

“‘Idol’ is filmed there as well, and Ryan often passes by the ‘DWTS’ people. He does not want it addressed and especially in his presence,” explains the “insider.” “He would like to pretend his girlfriend isn’t kissing anybody else, even if he understands it is her job.”

HollywoodLife finds Seacrest’s discomfort with the subject “understandable,” especially “now that the pictures have been released.”

“Now that the pictures have been released”?

Um, does HollywoodLife think Seacrest may have been hoping Rock of Ages would be done as a radio play?

Seacrest has known for a while that Hough was doing the movie.

He’s known that the movie sees her make physical contact with another man.

None of this comes as a horrible surprise to him.

He’s not a 6th grader whose jealousy is inflamed by people talking in the hallways about his girlfriend’s screen kiss.

In any case, a source close to Seacrest tells Gossip Cop the story is “ridiculous.”

Once again, HollywoodLife makes the mistake of assuming the people it covers are every bit as immature as its own mindset.

Also onboard for the film are Tom Cruise, who will play heavy metal singer Stacee Jaxx, Alec Baldwin, as former rocker and nightclub owner Dennis Dupree, along with Russell Brand and Julianne Hough.

A rep for Zeta-Jones, who recently checked into a mental health facility for treatment of bipolar disorder and opened up about her struggle to People, told Gossip Cop “She’s feeling great and looking forward to starting work” again.

Ryan Seacrest, according to a Star story about secrets from celebrity stylists, is a “made-up man.”

The tab reports that the E! and “American Idol” personality “can share makeup with his girlfriend, Julianne Hough.”

Huh?

Star quotes a co-called “source” as saying, “He loves to wear mascara to make his lashes fuller!”

But that’s not all.

The mag adds he also get his eyelashes “tinted auburn brown so that his eyes really pop against his spray tan.”

Actually, the only thing that’s “made-up” is Star‘s report.

A source close to Seacrest assures Gossip Cop the tab’s claims are “so untrue.”

Ryan Seacrest will be a “surprise guest star” on this season’s “Dancing with the Stars,” reports the National Enquirer.

According to a so-called “source” for the tabloid, Seacrest is “swapping his swanky leather slip-ons for… a pair of dancing shoes, thanks to his pro dancer sweetheart, Julianne Hough.”

Hough supposedly “talked the reluctant ‘American Idol’ host into a special guest appearance – even though he protests he has two left feet.”

“But after giving her squeeze private dance lessons,” the mag continues, “Julianne gushed to pals that Ryan will totally amaze viewers when the darling duo appear as guests during May sweeps.”

So is Seacrest really going to tear up the dance floor on ‘DWTS’?

“No,” says a source connected to the show, adding that the host of a competing program wouldn’t be asked to be on “Dancing with the Stars.”

Seacrest’s rep also tells Gossip Cop that he won’t be getting jiggy on the show any time soon.

Yet another misstep by the Enquirer.

According to E! Online, the two had a “hissing match” at the CAA soiree at Soho House in West Hollywood.

Well, yes.

The two ladies hugged it out and resolved their differences before last night’s Sony post-Globes party, where they were spotted cordially talking to each other.

Julianne Hough

The decision to pull Hough’s video from rotation happened a while ago, but before performing the tune at the “Acoustic Christmas Concert” in Maryland recently, Hough brought it up.

“This next song – funny story. I shot a music video for it… and [CMT] kind of banned it,” said the dancer-turned-singer.

“Apparently I was taking off too many clothes as I was dancing across my bedroom. But I don’t know – I kind of liked it.”

Do you think Hough’s moves are too spicy for TV?

“Wedding bells are set to ring for Ryan Seacrest and girlfriend Julianne Hough!” exclaims the National Enquirer.

According to the tab, “The ‘American Idol’ host surprised the ‘Burlesque’ star with a proposal during a recent vacation to Paris… and he’s even cutting back his workload to a start a family!”

The Enquirer quotes a so-called “insider” saying, “Ryan is ready to make Julianne his bride, but he wanted to blow her away with the most romantic proposal possible.”

OK, so how did he pop the question?

Was it atop the Eiffel Tower? Under the Arc de Triomphe? Outside the Louvre?

That’s funny, the magazine doesn’t offer a single detail about the “most romantic proposal possible,” because there was NO proposal.

Despite the terrible tab’s claim that Seacrest’s family was “thrilled to death when [Hough] said ‘yes’ to his proposal,” the couple did NOT get engaged.

A rep for Seacrest tells Gossip Cop that the Enquirer story is “not true!”

Our favorite part of the story is how the mag concludes that Seacrest has even decided to “opt out of renewing the contract for his syndicated radio show,” so that he can spend more time with Hough “building a solid future.”

Actually, Seacrest just renewed his radio contract for more money – and yes, more work.

Gossip Cop would like to propose that the Enquirer try fact-checking for a change.

Is Ryan Seacrest about to go from hosting his own radio show to hosting his own wedding?

According to In Touch, “Ryan is ring-shopping” for girlfriend Julianne Hough, because he allegedly “feels he’s met the woman of his dreams and is ready to ditch bachelorhood.”

“Ryan… is planning to propose” to Hough, the tab claims matter-of-factly, adding that he’s “enlisting the help of another woman to help him pop the question.”

And who would that be?

No, not new “American Idol” judge Jennifer Lopez.

A supposed friend squeals that none other than Seacrest’s sister, Meredith, will “help him choose the perfect engagement ring.”

“Meredith is young and has great taste and style,” says the source. “Ryan trusts her judgment and has asked her for help.”

And the tab notes that even though Seacrest and Hough have only been together for a few months, “the pal says Ryan knows she is The One.”

This “ring-shopping” tale would be really sweet… if it were accurate.

Unfortunately for In Touch, a source close to the couple tells Gossip Cop that the tabloid’s claim is “not true!”

HollywoodLife then writes, “‘I like [Julianne] so much more every single day. I don’t know how it works like that!’ the 35-year-old told Ellen DeGeneres on his radio show Sept. 14 of his 22-year-old girlfriend.”

Nice try, clowns.

Seacrest NEVER said that.

Ellen DeGeneres said that about her love, Portia de Rossi.

The real exchange is even reprinted on Seacrest’s blog: “Ryan asked if Ellen still ‘Likes’ her, Ellen replied, ‘I like her so much more every single day!’”

The furthest Seacrest would go on the subject of Hough, who he never mentioned by name, was responding to Ellen’s comment by stating, “I love that feeling and I know what that feeling might be like. We’ll talk about that when we have dinner.”

HollywoodLife concludes its error-riddled post by writing, “If only we could be a fly on the wall of THAT conversation!”

Yeah, too bad the site just got swatted by Gossip Cop.
