Julianne Hough: Shocked, Thrilled by Emmy Nomination

at .

Julianne Hough might be a popular celebrity. But she had no idea why so many people left messages of congratulations on her phone last week.

"I was like, 'Congratulations for what?' " Hough told People Magazine from Morristown, Ohio, where she was due to perform with Brad Paisley, Jewel and Chuck Wick.

Therefore, when Hough's publicist, informed the 20-year-old dancer/singer that she was nominated for outstanding choreography for Dancing with the Stars, Julianne was shocked.

"I'm nominated with some of the best choreographers out there," Hough said. "I mean, Kenny Ortega did Newsies and High School Musical, and then there's all the So You Think You Can Dance choreographers... I feel completely blessed to be in their company. It's incredible."

It's also well-deserved. Congratulations!
