POSTS STORIES REELS

5.8.2026 is a night I will cherish forever! When Dancing with the Stars first aired I was 14 and was immediately HOOKED from day 1. This show became a favorite for my mom, grandma and I. Flash forward to 2026, I’m 34 and got to experience this joy-filled and uplifting show LIVE with my grandma 🥹 A special night INDEED! To the cast and crew: I don’t know HOW you do it! Each and every one of you POURED your heart and soul into the entire show and blessed the audience with a night filled with pure magic, bliss, happiness, uplifting energy, light and endless smiles and a WHOLE LOT OF TALENT! The @dwtstourofficial is a BEAUTIFUL GIFT to its fans! A special shout out to @elaine4animals for making it an extra special night for grandma and I 🫶🏻 Your DWTS journey healed me and inspired me in so many ways! You renewed my spirit of dreaming BIG and dancing again, and for that I thank you 💗 It’s a TREASURE watching you dance. Your passion for dance shines so BRIGHT and you bring so much BLISS and MAGIC while you perform! What a GIFT! WE LOVED cheering for you and are so ecstatic for EVERYTHING that you ACCOMPLISHED! Thank you @dwtstourofficial for a night filled with nostalgia, joy, inspiration, light, love and many happy tears 🥹🫶🏻🪩✨💫 Also seeing @elaine4animals and @alanbersten do The Parent Trap handshake was a MAJOR core memory 🥹#TeamPartnerTrap will always be my mirrorball champions 🫶🏻 You made season 34 an extra special one! ❤️ by @jess_like_magic

A moment I’ve been dreaming of since I first watched The Parent Trap with my mom in 1998. 🥹 I can EASILY say with a big smile on my face that it was SO WORTH the 28 year wait! ❤️ Growing up a dancer, a fan of Disney/ The Parent Trap and a huge fan of Dancing with the Stars I was beyond thrilled when it was announced that @elaine4animals would be joining the cast! Right from the beginning I knew she would have my votes. When she first stepped out on that dance floor opening her dance with an ICONIC nod to Meredith Blake I knew that moment would go down in @dancingwiththestars history and that she was going to make it to the finale. All of the nods to Parent Trap filled my nostalgic heart up with so much BLISS! I love an inspiring comeback story and Elaine’s was ONE FOR THE BOOKS! From reclaiming her passion and dream of dancing again to FIGHTING through an injury like a TRUE WARRIOR with SUCH GRACE…she proved every second that she was born to dance, inspire others and make it to the finale! @elaine4animals , every single week your heart, energy, determination and soul SHINED through your dances. Each week you fought hard and really showed how grateful you were to be given the opportunity to be on the show and fight back for your dream. Your story and all of your dances inspired and impacted me in so many ways. You will forever be my mirrorball CHAMPION! What a joy it was to see you dance and chase after your dream 🫶🏻💫 It was an absolute JOY and true GIFT to watch you perform live as Dolly Levi Gallagher 👒💗🌂 YOU CRUSHED it on stage girl and brought so much JOY and LAUGHTER while bringing your character to life. Watching you sing and dance was nothing short of magic ✨ YOU WERE BORN FOR THE STAGE! Thank you Elaine for being the MOST KIND and taking the time to meet and chat after the show. It meant more to me than you will ever know. You truly have a HEART OF GOLD! This is a core memory that I will cherish forever and I can’t thank you enough for everything 🥹🫶🏻

The secret is outtttt 🤭 Trading in my mouse ears for ballroom shoes 💃🏼 I’ve got some big shoes to fill after @elaine4animals epic journey to the finale last season!
If we make it to Disney Night I’m hoping to do a mashup of the OG Parent Trap and the 1998 version by doing a dance to the song Let’s Get Together and represent the iconic hiking scene from the ‘98 film featuring Meredith Blake and @alanbersten I was hoping you would be down to dressing up as a lizard since you have a track record of some WILD and out of this world costumes on Disney night 🦎✌🏼
** if you made it this far….sorry it’s fake news 🤪** by @jess_like_magic

Still processing the fact that I won’t see Team Partner Trap on the ballroom floor every Tuesday💔Some partnerships on @dancingwiththestars just hit differently and Elaine & Alan were exactly that. It’s hard to say goodbye to a duo that made you feel SO MUCH through their art. It seems like just yesterday my mom & I were texting each other at the same time saying THE Meredith Blake is going to be on the show! Little did we know how deeply INSPIRED we would be by @elaine4animals and all the core memories that would come later on after the show ended🫶🏻Talk about an absolute WARRIOR!!! @elaine4animals thank you for reminding me that it’s never too late to rewrite my story and grab onto a dream I thought was out of reach. Watching you rewrite your story of resilience on the dance floor was pure MAGIC 💖Thank you for the special memories made on tour that my mom, grandma and I will hold on tight to and cherish forever. Huge shoutout to @alanbersten for creating choreography that honored Elaine’s ENTIRE essence all season long. This DWTS journey inspired me deeply, & I’m going to miss this duo IMMENSELY 🫶🏻🥹🪩✨Thank you for lighting up that dance floor with BLISS, NOSTALGIA, INSPIRATION, MAGIC, and WOW moments all season long @alanbersten & @elaine4animals 🫶🏻Thank you for bringing me a HUGE source of comfort at a time I needed it most! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the ENDLESS inspiration and unforgettable memories💖 DWTS won’t feel the same without Team Partner Trap’s magic every week but boy am I glad season 34 is available on Disney plus😅 thanks for EVERYTHING #teampartnertrap 🫶🏻 Obviously with all the hype on the new cast announcement for season 35…I am FEELING MY FEELSSSSS 😅😭 It’s SO hard to say goodbye to a season and duo that impacted my life SO MUCH and brought new friends and new core memories into my life 🥹🥰 For me, nothing will ever top Season 34! Thanks for saying YES to your dream @elaine4animals …”because I knew you, I have been changed for good “🖤💚🫶🏻✨ by @jess_like_magic
