She can dance and she can sing — but Julianne Hough’s acting is going to require some professional fine-tuning, at tattles for The New York Post are to be believed.

The Dancing With The Stars performer and rising country starlet is reportedly rearranging her work schedule to accomodate filming for next year’s remake of the 1984 film Footloose. However, word is she Julianne been ordered to take acting lessons after she tanked an audition for the role of preacher’s daughter Ariel Moore in the film, which will star Gossip Girl’s Chace Crawford.

Julianne’s audition “was so bad, the producers sent her off to take acting classes,” The Post reports. “She’s scheduled for another screen test Aug. 1. They definitely like her, but the producers know they need a real actress for the movie to work — she’s a pretty girl who can sing and dance, but so was Mariah Carey, and we all know how ‘Glitter’ turned out.”

Footloose opens in theaters in July of 2010.
