Julianne’s New Boyfriend? Or just a friend?

Julianne Hough and Jared Followill

Has Julianne Hough moved on from long-time boyfriend Chuck Wicks already? According to People.com that’s a real possibility since Julianne and a certain Kings of Leon member have been seen ‘hanging out’ around Nashville together. Jared Followill and Julianne have been seen at Nashville’s Lipstick Lounge and Whiskey Kitchen with fellow country singer, Holly Williams and her hubby.

They were very affectionate, just hanging out at the table,” says an observer of Hough and Followill, the bassist for Nashville-based band. “They stayed for about an hour and enjoyed karaoke. None of them sang, but they just hung with their group. Only a few people noticed she was even there. They didn’t make a spectacle of it.”

According to Julianne’s rep the two are ‘just friends.’ I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
