Loud chewing and when someone says like, it's a new day, don't let anything bring you down or like believe in yourself. Don't doubt yourself. Ew, I hate getting advice. Yours, on the other hand, and kind of like piggybacking off that, is like negative self talk. Yes. Even though I heard you say, I'm gonna jump off the building recently. So I was like, yes, do it together. Yeah, I hate negative self-talk. When you talk bad about yourself, that's my biggest pet peeve. What is the random topic that they could give a PowerPoint presentation on with no preparation? Oh, that's like a really specific, that has a thinker. I feel like Connor could like give a presentation on just like anything random. Like he just talks, he doesn't stop talking. That's just ADHD. Yes, he should do a talk about ADHD. I don't know anything about ADHD. But you'd talk and they'd be like, OK, that's what ADHD is, and they can learn from you. Yeah, that true. I do constantly spread misinformation, and I hope that people fact check me. Yeah. I think, I don' even know if you do this on purpose, but you are cultured, you're like pop culture Gen Z. Taylor Swift, I think you could do a really good point on. Yeah. Like hair, makeup, glam, I feel like that's your forte. Thanks, Connor. I would love to do that. Where was Taylor Swift born? I actually don't know. Connecticut, right? I actually don't know. Connecticut? She got married in Madison Square Garden, and that was pretty dang iconic. You're performing there soon. I am! One and the same. What is the Dancing with the Stars co-star that they would make their emergency contact? I would have to say Ezra. Ezra Frick, I feel like he's your emergency contact. Maybe someone a little bit older that could take care of you if something was really bad. or Tatiana, I feel like would be a really trustworthy one. Mine was Tatiana. Okay, period. Perfect. I got it. I need more of like a maternal figure. Yeah, you need like a mother to like. Tatiana and Jenna Dewan, they would be both. Oh, Jenna Dewon, yes. Yours, I guess Ezra Socha is who I would say, just because you know that he would pick up. Yes, exactly. Maybe he wouldn't be like the best to delegate tasks and like to find an EpiPen, like I think he'd be like. But he would answer the call. I would figure he would find someone else to help. Yeah. Exactly. Yes. And he's quick. Yes. Okay, what is their love language? Mine's- Holy . What is your love language. Mine's so easy. I think I know yours. Okay, What is mine? Getting gifts. No, it's not. Cause when I bring you, like, if I brought you like a Red Bull or candy, you're like, oh my God. Or like the Nick Jonas video, you're, like oh my god. That is true. That is really nice. What is yours? I think it's affirmation or physical touch. Yeah, well, I'll stop getting you stuff then. No, I really like getting stuff. So maybe it is. I think yours is words of affirmation. 100%. 100% words of affirmation, by the way, like that's all I'm open for like no constructive feedback like like if it's not you or the judges like anyone coming in I had a friend from high school, close friend, that texted me after one of our dances was like that was great last night but you need to... Blocked. I will unblock but but for the time being, to save our relationship, you are blocked. Wow. He doesn't kid. He loves love. No, no, no. I just don't need any, yeah. Yeah, he doesn't need the negative. Connor, are there any words of affirmations that Riley has given you, like your favorite ones? Yeah, we were in the middle of our dance, actually, last night, and while we're filming this, this is the next day after our dance. And in the mid of our our dance... Yes! You are killing it! Yeah! Oh my God, I am, we're getting a nine. Wasn't the case. Was it the case? Pretty far from a nine, actually. Was not the case. OK, but at least I thought you were killing it. It actually really helped me, because I was like, oh my gosh, and there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Here we go. Let's wrap it up. We've got 10 seconds left, and I'm killing it! Yeah! That felt really good. And she does talk during the dances a lot. I do. When he's doing well, I'm like, you're doing well. Yes, yes, slow it down. Yep. Yeah. Arms. I'm always going too fast. Yeah. What are the kinds of posts and videos that might pop up on their For You page? I feel like we both have very similar funny videos. Videos of myself, because those are the ones I engage with the most. I think I'm getting fed a lot of those. Oh wait, I'm talking about yours. Yes, what are mine? Sorry. Sorry. For you, I think these like random new audio stems that we say, like we have like a full week where it's like, thank you baby. Thank you baby, like that one. You get dancing videos? Honestly, no. No? No. Is yours like memes? Mine's like memes and like funny stuff. That's so nice. Like my For You page is like somewhat Dancing with the Stars. Like I feel like it's Dancing with Stars like after the show, but then it calms down and then it goes back to like my funny For You page that I love. Yeah. Which is really nice. That's a healthy escape. Yeah. Yours is definitely Trends and like Dancing with The Stars. Mm-hm, and then a lot of whales for some reason. And bears. I haven't seen that. Bears and whales, yeah. Wow, that's interesting. What are their go-to karaoke songs? I don't know. Yeah. What's that one you did at your She does know, but I'm never gonna do it again Yeah, Connor did a karaoke song for his birthday party, and it was everyone was like this. It was like I didn't know one knew it No one knew. It usually is such a hit. Yeah, I'm gonna miss her by Brad Paisley. That's right That was it. It. Was good. He did great, but no one knew unfortunately It was a completely quiet except me He brought people up and I brought someone else and they were singing around I was like go back down Go ahead now. Get out of here. Yours would be like Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield or something in that. Yeah, yeah. Fun, everyone's involved, everyone else is singing along, like the classic things you want surrounding a karaoke song. I took a different route. Yeah, you tried to be unique and cool. Yeah, everyone ganged up on the guy that decided to go out of the box a little bit, I guess. Nothing new for me. Who are their celebrity crushes? I don't think we've ever talked about that. Oh, we've never talked about that. Who would be your celebrity crush? Justin Bieber. Yeah, that's a fair. Jennifer Lawrence. Always. She's funny. Nice. Yeah. I want like a Paige DeSorbo moment now, where like Paige De Sorbo just like spoke it into existence. I just want just a little acknowledgement from Jennifer Lawrence that I'm funny, and then that's all I need. And I, like no offense, Paige, I wanted that first though, so. Should have said it out loud. Jennifer, I really need something good to happen to me. Fast. Who is the musical artist or band that they fangirl over? Justin Bieber. Justin Bieber? Yeah. Jonas Brothers too? Jonas Brothers. Uh-huh. This is kind of a trick question for me because I get- You like a lot of genres of music. Like you like country, you like vibey, like chill music. I don't know. And guess what, it is a trick questions because in terms of fangir, if anyone has any level of clout, like I am gonna be like sucking on their teat. Oh, Fleetwood Mac. Fleetwood mac, yeah. Sucking on their teeth. I will be cloud chasing. Fleetwood Mack, Fleet Wood Mack. What is their favorite dance so far this season? Oh, interesting. Okay, what was my favorite? I think you really liked the Foxtrot. Really? Oh, okay. Okay, no, I did like the Foctrot. I just, I like touch my body the most. That was, yeah? Yeah, like I loved my costume, I loved to my look and like the song. I don't know, I just felt like in my element now. So our rumba you liked the most. Yes. I think you liked our foxtrot or samba. You know what's weird is I liked the tango and the tanga was the one I completely stunk it up out there. But like I really enjoyed that dance. Yeah, you were really good at it. Yeah, that was really fun. We'll need our redemption on that. I think so too. What is the thing that always makes them start laughing during rehearsal? Everything makes her laugh. Genuinely. Probably the hardest thing that made her laugh when I was like, I got this new yogurt. Yeah. I'm not going to talk about that. Yeah, you have to. It's so funny. And I was like, I can't figure out. I was, like, I have to step out and take this phone call. And she was like... Are you not going to take your phone? And I'm like, oh. No, you're like, Riley, I had the best yogurt this morning. And I said, what yogurt? He told me what yogurt it was. I was Like, do you know that's, like a probiotic yogurt? He's like, that's why. Yeah, I was... I was going outside to fart. He was unwell all day. It was bad. What I think makes Connor laugh the most is when we're, like just starting a new dance and it feels nearly impossible and he's just like he's not even mad or like upset and that's what I love so much because a lot of times people do get upset and it like upsets me he's just like laughing just like how am I going to get this this is impossible starting a New Dance the day after you do the dance that you just worked on for a week is like when you're like getting something out of your car and then you drop your phone and then go to pick up your phone then your coffee spills oh you're joking exact no my favorite thing I'll be like teaching him the steps and then we just look at each other and we just start laughing to know you we'll be heading home this week but but look I know I know yeah what is their go-to snack before or after rehearsal Connors is like it depends if it's the morning some eggs oh you know what you're liking oatmeal oatmeal yes And then he has tons of coffee during rehearsal and then maybe like a protein bar Yeah, she comes in with a protein shake and an Alani the the little ones. Yeah smart. I love those What is their go-to coffee order? He likes just black coffee. He doesn't drink coffee Matcha matcha. I like matcha, but he likes just a black coffee and it's scary. I'm really scared after I drink it What is there a favorite swear word? She doesn't cuss unless it's right before we walk out onto the dance floor on the only run that matters. There was one time I was really really really nervous and I did not mean to let it like it was in my mind it was not trying to come out. From her mind right into my ear. And it stressed him out big time and he was like wait what was that and I was like I was just sighing. She did sigh with a word. I would say your favorite cuss word is I don't know, you've been cussing lately. I started cussin' recently. Like these past 24 hours, you're like, after the Samba lesson you're just like, I'm just gonna cuss now. He doesn't really though, like not that often. What is the TV show they've binge watched the most recently? You watch TV? I don' have time to watch TV. Yeah, I think she goes to bed. I don''t think you watch TV either. I like my phone. Yeah, he's addicted to his phone. One thing you will always get from Connor is like, I will always know what's going on because of him. Yeah, it's bad. It's funny because I'll start watching TV and I'll get three episodes and I'm like, this show sucks. And they're like, what's it about? I was like, I didn't look up for my phone, I don't know. But it didn't pull me out of my phone so it couldn't have been that good. Exactly. What is their most used emoji? You don't use emojis to me. To me? No, I really don't that much emojis.
