Dancing with the Stars fans are getting pumped for Season 34. Most of the DWTS cast for the upcoming season is still under wraps. So far, we know that influencer Alix Earle and conservationist Robert Irwin will be shaking their groove things. And, thankfully, two familiar faces will once again be handling hosting duties for Season 34.
Who are the Dancing with the Stars hosts for 2025?
Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough are the Dancing with the Stars hosts in 2025.
Alfonso Ribeiro took on co-hosting duties during Season 31 alongside Tyra Banks. In 2014, he won the Mirrorball during Season 19 with his partner, Witney Carson. So, he knows what the contestants are experiencing during the grueling competition.
When Tyra departed the ballroom, Julianne Hough took on the role of co-host for Season 32. The move delighted the DWTS fandom. Julianne has a long history with the show. She was a dance pro from 2007 until 2009, taking home two Mirrorballs.
In 2014, she returned to the show, this time as a judge. Alas, Julianne departed again three years later. In addition, she has a family connection on DWTS. Her brother, Derek Hough, was a dance pro and is now a judge. I guess the crew in the ballroom really is a family!
Former host Tom Bergeron gave the pair his blessing via an Instagram post, writing, “Glad the show’s in good hands. Their feet ain’t bad, either.” Having Tom’s approval no doubt meant a great deal to both Alfonso and Julianne.
For Alfonso, hosting is a dream come true. And being able to host with is buddy, Julianne, is the icing on the cake. “I love this job. Becoming a host has been, truly, what I think I was destined to do from the beginning,” Alfonso previously stated.
It looks like Season 34 of DWTS is shaping up to be an amazing season!
Dancing with the Stars is streaming on Disney+.
