Julianne Hough Sparkles On The Miss USA Red Carpet

Leave it to Dancing with the Stars alum Julianne Hough to show up on the Miss USA red carpet wearing a sparkly dress to celebrate the festive occasion. Hough, who's hosting this year's pageant alongside actor Terrence J, showed up on the red carpet in a sparkly silver dress with a halter neckline and a thigh-high slit that added the perfect touch to her outfit.

Considering Hough's background in dance and the seriously sparkly outfits that turned up on DWTS, I'm not surprised that she wore a dress with some serious sparkle on the red carpet. Hough's shoulder length blonde hair was in simple waves and she kept her makeup look low-key to draw attention to the fun halter neckline. She went for a neutral smoky eye and fun pink lipgloss. I mean, considering how many outfits Hough is probably going to be wearing throughout the show, I can't blame her for going super simple with her hair and makeup look. Got to let the clothes shine, right?

Hough was posting her dress rehearsal pics on Instagram, so we've already got some sneak peeks at what her outfits during the show are going to look like. But how great was that first outfit?

Isn't that slit amazing?

Co-host Terrence J cleaned up pretty well too. I love his classic black tux with her gown.

Gotta love that hair and makeup. Hough's blue eyes totally pop. Considering how great this look was, I can't wait to see what other gowns Hough rocks at this year's show.
