00:00You guys did incredible tonight. That wink to kick off the performance, that was amazing.

00:04What was going through your head as you were performing? Do you have thoughts or are you

00:08just in the zone in the moment? I'm in the zone, I'm in the moment. I've ran this routine so many

00:12times now that it's somewhat muscle memory, but of course the things that are going through my

00:16head are, look at that camera and smile. That's really all it is. So good. I'm so proud of Steven.

00:24We had so much fun out there and I'm so proud of all the work he's putting in and truly this has

00:29been like one of my favorite performances I've ever done on the show. Love to hear that. How are

00:33your nerves and how does it compare to performing at an Olympic level to here in front of a ballroom?

00:40How does the nervousness compare? Well, I think a lot of people be surprised to hear it, but it's

00:44very similar. You're out here with a big crowd in front of judges, the cameras. It's a lot to take

00:49in. So I was feeling the nerves, but just like the Olympics, me and Riley went through some

00:54breathing exercises. We grounded ourselves and really just had fun with it. And that's really

00:58all that matters. In your personal life, who has been a big cheerleader in this journey for you so

01:03far? Definitely my girlfriend, Tess. She came here, she was cheering. I heard her. I mean, she's just

01:08the best and she keeps me grounded. She keeps me on my feet. Well, after this performance, you guys

01:13are definitely a couple to look out for this season. What are, besides obviously winning it all, do you

01:18have any personal goals that you're hoping that you can hit? Well, immediately I want to point my toes

01:22better. That's one thing. You know, I take everything those judges say to heart. So I'm going to go back in the gym

01:27tomorrow and just work on those small details for week two. I want to be able to make sure I'm clean

01:31for them. I want to hear them say, you fixed it next week. So that's really my biggest goal right now.
