Whitney Leavitt Doesn’t Think She Had an Advantage Going into ‘TikTok’ Week on ‘DWTS’

Transcript

00:00You guys killed it. Are you kidding me? Highest scores of week three. How does that feel?

00:05It feels great. I, you know, we put a lot of work into this dance, just like the other two dances,

00:09but this one specifically, at least for me, was really intimidating.

00:13So being able to get the highest scores that we've gotten, it was very rewarding.

00:17And I also think the song and the theme, like, played a really big part of, like, why it worked.

00:22You know, like, the song is fun, it's nostalgic, like, well, it's nostalgic for me because it came out when I was in high school.

00:28I'm aging myself. But, yeah, when we got that song, I was like, oh, whoa, this is, like, on ABC and dance.

00:35I was like, I never thought ever that I'd be dancing this song.

00:37But I felt like, yes, but I feel like it was so suited to her personality.

00:40The samba is hard. It's a different style.

00:43So it was interesting to, like, take this TikTok theme and, like, it's a challenge for all of us.

00:48Yeah, it's interesting. We've never done anything like this, so I'm hoping everyone enjoyed it.

00:54I was blown away, to be honest, just like everyone else watching.

00:57Do you feel like because you are a TikTok queen, you had an advantage for TikTok week?

01:01Oh, I don't know about that, but, no, I don't think I did.

01:06It's very different.

01:07I mean, it's very different.

01:09How much time is spent making the TikToks behind the scenes?

01:12Do you feel like it's a requirement now?

01:13I mean, you have had many other, many more seasons.

01:16We plan them out. I've got a Google Doc.

01:19We send them, I'm like, get ready. Come early tomorrow. We're going to bang these out.

01:24We come in an hour early. We bang them out.

01:26And at night, like, we'll FaceTime each other and be like, I found this audio.

01:30What do you think?

01:32So it's fun, it's silly, but she has a Google Doc.

01:35I have a notes folder.

01:37And we try to...

01:37Type A personality is shining through right now.

01:40Yeah.

01:41What is MomTalk, what's the group text saying after both your and Jen's performances each week?

01:47Oh, it's always the fire emojis, the disco balls, the yes queen, slay queen.

01:51You guys crushed it. They're very supportive.

01:53Who's your biggest supporter?
