I think trust and open communication. That's what we've been very communicative since the start that like I said, it's nice. That's something I say to them like, "You can dance, I can dance." But it's like the connection that we have that will people will move people, you know, so. And that connection. Yeah. We do. Yeah. We do spend a lot of time together, Ivana.

I gave you all the time in the world.
No, I blocked everything in my life just for you.
Well, you're not getting away from this question. What's surprising you about Ivana?
The first time I met Ivana, when she opened the door, right? Mhm. I was like, "Oh my gosh, she's so cute." Because I I watched her on Harry Potter. I'm like, "Oh my gosh, she's so sweet. She's so cute." When she walked in, she's like, "Hello!" You know, gave me a hug. And then every week she just became weird.
You guys are so cute. Okay, last but not least, if you guys could have a dream person. It could be anyone, celebrity, someone you know really well, someone that you love, who'd be watching the show and rooting for team Ivana. Who'd you choose? Who'd be in the audience watching you guys?

I mean, I'd love if JK Rowling would come, could come to the show. Yeah. Just because she's like such an influence on me. Sometimes I just want to be like, "Look what I did, Jo." That's so cute. I'd love if she come.
Okay, JK Rowling, Natalie Portman. Yeah, you guys have to be invited in the audience for these two, team Ivana. I'm going to tease you a little bit. You're not the best at holding your mics. But you're really good at dance moves. So, I want to know, can you guys teach me some moves?
One, two, three. One, two, three. And one, two, three. And one, two, three. All right, and just like let let your hair go. Just like enjoy it. When you come back, I want to be right in front of your face, okay? And just be okay with that. Okay. All right. Boom. Whoa. Got a little bit of a head rush, but that's how we do it on Dancing with the Stars. You step, and then you point that. And then and then you extend your hip. Oh, look at his hip. Okay. And then that. So, you kind of just let the arms come into it. And oh. Look at you're like a butter. I don't even know what's going on right now. And step out. And then you're going to take your left and plant it here, and turn around and take that one behind you. And then that's that.
