Transcript

00:00What's it like going through this experience thus far with Whitney?

00:03It's been great. Honestly, I think it's brought us closer. And yeah, it's really nice to have

00:09someone beside me that just gets it through as kids. That's a mom and is also a part of the same

00:17show as me. So yeah, it's been really nice. Were you shocked that they decided to have two

00:23girls in the same show? Yes, I was not expecting that. In fact, I was expecting her to get it in

00:29her to get it only. And yeah, when I found out it was both of us, I was just so, so happy.

00:37So have you and Whitney been comparing any notes or anything since rehearsals?

00:42No, I think we're doing completely different dances. So like she's focusing on, you know,

00:48what she's focusing on and I'm focusing on, you know, what I'm doing. So is it a friendly

00:53competition or are you like, I'm going to have to meet you? No, it's for sure friendly. I mean,

00:56on my end, I mean, who knows with her, she's, I know she's very competitive. I mean, she competed,

01:04um, all growing up, like she's an actual dancer. So I think she definitely has more of that

01:11competitive nature. Um, but yeah, for me, I just am there to have fun.
