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.
00:10So, to just be able to channel that magical energy and to just be so, like, elegant and whatnot.
00:17And, I don't know, I just feel like every, you know, Disney night really brings out the inner child in you.
00:22And so, I was happy to, like, to be able to do that. That 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.
00:52But you know what? So are you.
00:55So are you.
00:56And, I mean, they don't call it short king for a reason, you know, so.
01:00That's actually true.
01:02And I wanted to ask, too, because you had the iconic red hair. Did that, like, was that heavy?
01:08How 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.
01:15But I loved it. Any chance I get to wear a wig, I will wear a wig. I love to wear wigs.
01:22Do 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 curly wig.
01:35And in the package, you guys had a date, non-date, don't know what you guys want to call it,
01:41but how would you say that helped your performance for this week?
01:44It was a lot of fun, honestly.
01:47We had a lot of fun.
01:48To get outside of the studio.
01:50You're saying sorry.
01:51No, don't be.
01:52No, to get outside of the studio and just have some fun, I thought was great.
01:55We're constantly, what these guys go through is so, it just blows my mind how hard they work.
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 get in the water was just really nice for a second.
02:14I wish I pushed you in.
02:17And I have to ask, because even in this interview, the chemistry is off the charts.
02:22Is it?
02:23I think it is.
02:24I just want to know, what do you guys think about fans shipping you two or having a showman?
02:30How do you control yourself?
02:32What do you mean?
02:33I don't know about what.
02:35I'm just being a smartass.
02:36Yeah, you are.
02:37Listen, we have so much trust in each other.
02:39She's an incredible woman.
02:41I'm just happy to be here on this incredible journey with her.
02:45This dance was so beautiful.
02:47She was hitting all the beautiful lines.
02:49And we were like, hey, should we kiss?
02:52It would be weird to do this beautiful, classy rumba and then make out.
02:59It wasn't that type of dance.
03:01I wanted to showcase her.
03:03So 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.
03:07Just to be a gentleman.
03:08You're such a gentleman.
03:09I'm such a gentleman.
03:14I love you.
03:15I love you.
