After finding a great deal of success on the hit ABC show, Derek Hough is taking a hiatus from "Dancing with the Stars".
Having taken the crown in Season 11 alongside actress Jennifer Grey, the three-time DWTS winner told People magazine, "I'm taking season 12 off."
The decision comes so that Hough - who has been romantically linked to Cheryl Cole - can make time to tend to lead role duties in a dance movie titled "Cobu 3D".
Set to portray a Big Easy street dancer, the 25-year-old says of his character, "People will see a much edgier side of me and these other styles of dance I'm capable of doing."
And while he's walking away from DWTS for now, Derek will be back on the dancefloor this fall. "I will be making it back to Dancing with the Stars in the fall. I'm just taking a little break and taking this chance to grow and expand a little bit as an artist. It's like I told one of the producers on the show ? I'll come back with a whole new set of skills."
