DWTS’ Julia Stiles and Ezra Sosa React to Juilliard’s “Shady” Post About Her (Exclusive)
Leave it to Julia Stiles and Ezra Sosa to twist and shout.
The Dancing With the Stars contestant and her pro partner teased how they’ve been leveling up their dance rehearsals ahead of the season 35 premiere on Sept. 15.
“The tea is piping hot,” Sosa exclusively told E! News at the 2026 Creative Arts Emmy Awards on Sept. 6. “She’s doing absolutely incredible. I will confidently say I’ve never worked with someone who’s working so hard and who’s so passionate about doing this, and it just makes me so excited to see their journey on the show.”
“One thing about Julia is how effortlessly beautiful she is,” he continued. “She doesn’t even try hard, and it’s just the most stunning thing ever. I’ve never been around a movie star like this before, so just to be around that every single day, it’s super inspiring.”
As for Stiles—who kept mum on the details of her first routine, but revealed the long nails she’ll be sporting in the ballroom next week—she explained that Sosa has already instilled a new type of “confidence” in her.
