Derek Hough's steamy on-screen kiss


Seems like Dancing with the Stars pro Derek Hough is talented in areas other than dancing and singing.

Hough, who is also the co-lead vocalist of Ballas Hough Band locked lips with singer-songwriter Kate Voegele for her new music video "99 Times."

"The video was so much fun to shoot and Derek was awesome," raved Voegele to People. "Great dancer, great musician, great kisser. That guy's got a few things going for him!"

The video for "99 Times" is about a girl, played by Voegele, "walking around a room filled with boyfriends who have lied to her and broke her heart," explained Hough. "At the very end she kisses me and then pushes me down, causing a domino effect with all her past boyfriends."

However, he assured the mag that the kiss was strictly business, especially since he's dating actress and former DWTS partner Shannon Elizabeth.

"I didn't know I would be kissing Kate until about five seconds before we did," he revealed. "I'm not going to lie, I was a little nervous!"

She's a lucky girl!

Which DWTS pro would YOU like to share a kiss with?

Finally! I've been waiting for the Gap to come out with something less preppy and basic, and more fashion forward! I can't wait to see what the jacket looks like!
