In an exclusive interview, Jenn Tran has shared that her upcoming routine on “Dancing With the Stars” will pay tribute to the iconic Taylor Swift, promising an emotional performance that has her on the verge of tears. The reality television star, known for her time on “The Bachelorette,” is gearing up to dance alongside pro partner Sasha Farber during next Tuesday’s Dedication Night.
“I need to prepare myself for this,” Tran expressed, her excitement palpable. “Dancing to a song by Taylor Swift is a dream come true. I can hardly contain my emotions; I genuinely believe I’m going to cry.” Fans of Tran know she’s a devoted Swiftie, and she couldn’t help but share her enthusiasm. “Anyone who knows me knows I’m totally obsessed with Taylor. I am literally over the moon.”
While Tran hasn’t disclosed the specific song yet, she described it as deeply personal, hinting that many viewers will resonate with the story behind it. “It’s a personal journey,” she remarked. “This routine will reflect experiences that many can relate to.” The couple will likely share sneak peeks of their dance on social media, building anticipation for the reveal.
When asked if Farber will emulate Swift’s rumored boyfriend, Travis Kelce, during the performance, Tran laughed it off. “No, it’s a different message,” she teased, emphasizing that they have something unique in store.
Tran’s journey on “Dancing With the Stars” has been remarkable. She joined the competition shortly after a dramatic season finale of “The Bachelorette,” where her engagement to Devin Strader ended abruptly. Since then, supporters have rallied behind her. Her debut routine set to Miley Cyrus’s “Flowers” showcased her potential and has impressed the judges consistently.
In a recent episode, Tran and Farber scored a solid 31 out of 40 with their paso doble to Europe’s “The Final Countdown.” Reflecting on her performance, Tran expressed satisfaction. “I was in my head before going out, but I decided to give it everything I had. And I truly believe I did my best.”
As she prepared for the rock-themed night, Tran even joked about channeling her wild college days, adding, “That side of me has been tucked away for a while, but tonight, she made an appearance.” “Dancing With the Stars” continues to air Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC, and with Tran’s heartfelt tribute to Taylor Swift on the horizon, fans can expect a night filled with emotion and passion.
