Julianne Hough dazzles desert crowd

This reality TV junkie likes most musical genres, but loves country.

So I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see my new favorite group Gloriana and Dancing With the Stars alum Julianne Hough for $5, even if that meant driving 80 miles to Palmdale.

The show was the last of the Palmdale 2009 Starlight Concert Series.

Lucky for me I got my dad to do the driving, but when we got there it was announced that Gloriana had canceled due to illness. We were bummed, but that disappointment vanished as soon as Hough took the stage.

Not only does she possess a contagious energy, Hough's band was full of energy that only bettered her performance

Hough is an amazing performer and it is evident that she loves doing what she does. I was impressed with the number of times throughout her set that she thanked her fans and told the audience how blessed she feels to have their support

Hough is currently working on her second album. To learn more about this rising country star go to www.juliannehough.com or follower her on Twitter at twitter.com/juliannehough

Let the blogging adventure begin

I cannot deny the fact that I am addicted to reality TV.

Writing a newspaper column on that topic gave me sixteen opportunities to rant and rave about all things reality TV based, so I'm excited to try something new and blog instead of writing a traditional newspaper column.

Although the name of this blog is Confessions of a Reality TV Junkie, it will also be a place for me to discuss traditional TV shows and whatever books, movies or music that I'm loving at the moment.

Let the blogging adventure begin.
