Jenn Tran and Sasha Farber chat with THR on 'Dancing With the Stars' Disney Night and dish on going outside of the rehearsal room to prep for their 'Little Mermaid' performance. Plus, they react to romance rumors and that forehead kiss!
00:00We got to tap into The Little Mermaid. How was that playing Ariel?
00:04Oh, a dream come true. I mean, I've always wanted to be a princess since I was a kid.
00:08Every Halloween, I was a different Disney princess, so just be able to channel that magical energy
00:13and to just be so, like, elegant and whatnot, and I don't know, I just feel like every, you know,
00:20Disney night really brings out the inner child in you, and so I was happy to, like, to be able to do that.
00:24I thought it was really fun. What about you?
00:26I mean, listen, I had a major upgrade. I went from the crab to Prince Eric.
00:31I'm not your usual prince type of guy. I don't know. I've never been. I feel like I'm a little short.
00:38Babe, I told you it's not about how short you are. It's not about how tall your hair is.
00:44It's about what's on the inside.
00:46I'm a prince on the inside.
00:48Yes, that's what I said. It's about how you treat other people.
00:50Yeah, but Prince Eric is, like, this good-looking guy.
00:53But you know what? So are you.
00:54Oh. So are you.
00:56And, I mean, they don't call it short king for a reason, you know, so.
01:01Exactly.
01:01Exactly.
01:02And I wanted to ask, too, because you had the iconic red hair. Did that, like, was that heavy? How was it performing with that?
01:09It actually was not that heavy. It was itchy, if anything. I got to have a nice little massage right afterwards.
01:14But I loved it. Any chance I get to wear a wig, I will wear a wig. I love to wear wigs. Do you like to wear wigs?
01:23I love to wear. I've never worn a wig, actually.
01:24You've never worn a wig. When will you wear wigs?
01:26Oh, I did last year for Disney, actually.
01:28You wore a wig.
01:29Woo!
01:30Whoa.
01:31Girls get the girls. You can say that. I was wearing a fairly wig.
01:34And in the package, you guys had a date, non-date, don't know what you guys want to call it, but how would you say that helped your performance for this week?
01:46It was a lot of fun, honestly.
01:47We had a lot of fun.
01:48To get outside of the studio. You're saying, sorry.
01:52No.
01:52No, to get outside of the studio and just have some fun. I thought it was great.
01:55Yeah, we're constantly... What these guys go through is so... It just blows my mind how hard they work, and...
02:03What you go through is even harder, honestly.
02:06You have a million things going on in your head all the time.
02:09And to get out of the studio and just, like, get in the water was just really nice for a second.
02:14I wish I pushed you in.
02:18And I have to ask, because, I mean, even in this interview, the chemistry is off the charts.
02:23Is it?
02:24I think it is.
02:25I just want to know, like, how do you guys... What do you guys think about fans shipping you to, or having a showman?
02:31How do you control yourself?
02:33What do you mean?
02:34I'm not that one.
02:36I'm just being smart.
02:37Yeah, you are.
02:38Listen, we have so much trust in each other. She's an incredible woman.
02:42I'm just happy to be here on this incredible journey with her.
02:45This dance was so beautiful. She was hitting all the beautiful lines.
02:49And, you know, we were like, hey, should we kiss?
02:52And then it would be weird to do this beautiful, classy rumba and then, like, make out.
03:00It wasn't that type of dance.
03:02I wanted to showcase her, so I thought at the end, I never usually did it, but I thought at the end I'd give her a kiss on the forehead, just to be a gentleman.
