‘DWTS’ Why Did Jenn Tran & Sasha Farber Opt For Forehead Kiss?
Last night, the remaining DWTS Season 33 contestants presented Disney Night, something fans look forward to every year. Jenn Tran and Sasha Farber performed the Rumba to “Kiss the Girl” from The Little Mermaid, adding fuel to the rumors about them.
But when the routine concluded, they didn’t kiss. Instead, Sasha planted a quick kiss on Jenn’s forehead. Many viewers felt disappointed, including judge Derek Hough who said he “shipped” them together.
So why did they opt for a forehead kiss instead?
Jenn Tran & Sasha Farber Wanted To Stay Authentic To The Film
So far, Jenn and Sasha have been dancing around rumors about their relationship. But they insist they actually had a good reason for not kissing onstage.
“We wanted to do the scene justice and do it the way the movie was,” Jenn shared with Us Weekly after Disney Night wrapped up. “We don’t want to make up stuff that didn’t happen in the movie, that’d be crazy.”
Jenn emphasized that Ariel and Prince Eric don’t kiss during “Kiss the Girl,” so they didn’t want to either. Sasha added that they wanted to keep the routine classy and elegant. That’s why he simply gave her a forehead kiss instead.
The pair earned a 24/30 for their routine and received high praise from judges. Carrie Ann Inaba even said she thought their Disney Night routine was their best performance so far.

“I worked really hard this week, so Carrie Ann telling me that meant a lot,” Jenn proudly shared.
The Bachelorette Star Reunited With Joey Graziadei On Disney Night
Most DWTS seasons feature one contestant from Bachelor Nation. But Season 33 has two, which means Jenn Tran is going up against someone she used to date, Joey Graziadei.
But even so, there’s no bad blood between the two. Jenn and Joey reunited for the team dance on Disney Night, easily winning and taking home bonus points.
They perform well together and Jenn is glad she has the chance to work with him again.

“It’s so fun. We’re such good friends,” The Bachelorette star said about Joey Graziadei, noting that she enjoys going to dinner with him and his fiancee Kelsey Anderson. “It’s really great to have a friend on the team.”
