Country singer/"Dancing with the Stars" pro Julianne Hough and her steady, country star Chuck Wicks, were not shy in showing some affection on the 42nd Annual Country Music Awards red carpet -- and Chuck told "The Insider" just how he and Julianne became more than friends!

When asked if he and Julianne are kind of going out, he responded, "Kind of? No, we're there. We met out in the Brad Paisley tour, of course, and that's just been an incredible year, and to have her part of that, and to hang out there all day, I mean, things just happen. I've been very blessed to have met her, and obviously we've been together for sometime now."

Weighing in on Julianne's chances at winning this year's "Dancing with the Stars" with Cody Linley now that she's back from surgery, he said, "I don't know, I think they're good -- I think Derek, her brother, is giving her a good run. ... But Julianne, she's got a good shot."

As for his wardrobe choice for the evening, which he assembled together himself without the help of a stylist, he admitted to being nervous, but added, "I didn't leave the house until I got my woman's opinion -- that's what matters the most."

  • Who do these two think they're fooling? They both cheated on their exes. What goes around, comes around. They are DEFINITELY NOT the new king and queen of country. They are giving country a dirty name. CHEATERS!
