ET caught up with JULIANNE HOUGH, who was back in Hollywood shooting the cover to her upcoming Mercury Records album. The "Dancing with the Stars" champ has been spending her time in Nashville the past few months laying down tracks for a country CD.

"I hope people are going to like it," she tells ET of her upcoming country album. "I love it. It is definitely different. I have a huskier voice -- something, I think, will set me apart from other artists. I think you will be able to tell from my music that it is real. It is coming from me. It is not something I am singing about and can't relate to it."

Even though she is a dancer, Julianne admits she isn't comfortable posing for pictures.

"I should be comfortable in my body, but I feel weird and uncomfortable," she admits. That said, she is trying a lot of different looks, from which one will be selected.

As for participating in the new season of "Dancing with the Stars," that is still up in the air, but not because of any indecision on her part.

"I don't know if I am going to be back on the show," says the blonde beauty, whose dream partner is DAVID BECKHAM. "They only tell us about a week before we start training."
