The 26-year-old singer, dancer and actor recently dished on the one thing he doesn’t like to be asked, and wishes that it wouldn’t be asked anymore.
“People always ask what would I would pick between singing or acting etc,” Jordan told FAULT magazine. “I do so many different things in the entertainment industry that people don’t even know about so my answer to that dumb question is, ‘I couldn’t ever pick’. Now if I had to pick a favorite, it would be Broadway. I love television, music, voice-over work, writing, producing, gaming but I find myself missing Broadway the most.”
Jordan Fisher is opening up perfectionism and being a good partner and father.
The 26-year-old entertainer dished in a new interview about building his tribe with fiancee Ellie Woods.
When asked what his fault is, Jordan shared that he is a perfectionist and that’s something he will have to relinquish a bit to be a good family man.
“I’m a number three on the Enneagram scale. If you know anything about the Enneagram scale and threes, we are people driven by success and the perception of it,” Jordan told FAULT magazine. “That has ultimately made me the perfectionist that I am, but I don’t think it’s fair to myself or to anybody else who has to live with my perfectionism. To project it onto a younger generation or my peers is not fair. I need to the hardest working person in the room, but I also need to be viewed that way; I think that has its strengths, but I also know first hand that there are a lot of weaknesses to that – but therapy is great for a lot of reasons!”
“I know I have to relinquish perfectionism. I have a very tight circle which I call my tribe because they make me feel happy. Ellie and I are building our tribe, having kids and everything, and I have to let perfectionism go to be a good partner,” Jordan added.
“I want to protect the things that I love most, whether it’s my people or it’s my projects and I’m not always going to be successful at that, but I’m for sure going to try my hardest. I think that relinquishing control and relinquishing perfectionism is only going to be for the best,” he said.
Jordan Fisher is opening up about his new movie Work It!
The 26-year-old entertainer recently dished about the diversity in the Netflix dance movie.
“The great thing about Work It is… the diversity is incredible,” Jordan told GQ Australia. “There’s something about building something where you know that there’s gonna be a kid somewhere that watches it, and they’re gonna look at the screen and say ‘oh my God, that’s me.’ Even if they don’t want to pursue dance, being able to relate to that person on the screen — that’s success.”
“I mean dance is the world. Most of the dance films my generation grew up loving — The Last Dance, Step Up, Honey, You Got Served — in all of those films there are all these different genres of dance, and cultures and diversity,” he added about dance movies. “You Got Served is one of my favorite films of all time, and it’s a predominantly black cast. I think dance films, for the most part, have been very ahead of their time.”
Jordan also recently talked about diversity in Hollywood in another interview.
“I think that we’ve come a long way, but God, do we have a long way to go still,” he told Variety. “I think that ultimately at the end of the day, still, Black voices are the most inspirational, but also white voices are still the most powerful. There’s not a lot of change that can happen until the white voices go, ‘Huh. Maybe, what if we did this?’ and tested the waters.”
The 26-year-old entertainer, who won the 25th season of the competition series and co-hosted Dancing With The Stars: Juniors, thinks the new hosting choice is “odd”.
“It’s odd. Tyra is very talented, and ABC, I would say, most of the time knows what they’re doing. It’s really just a matter of seeing it actually happen,” he told ET.
“I’m curious… the tonal quality of the show is so family-oriented, and I think that Tom [Bergeron] and Erin [Andrews] have played a large part in cultivating that feeling for fans at home,” Jordan added. “So their absence, I think, is… I mean, it’s evident based on social media and all that stuff how people feel in terms of their absence from the show.”
“She’s an EP on the show as well, so I don’t know,” he said. “I don’t know what that’s gonna look like or sound like or feel like, or anything along those lines. So, we’ll see. We’ll see when the show comes back up.”

Jordan Fisher just debuted the music video for his song “Walking On The Ceiling“!
The 26-year-old actor and singer created the black and white video with his band during quarantine.
“For me R&B is home. For me my band is my family. For me there was only one way to make this video. ‘Walking on the Ceiling’ official video out now,” he wrote on Instagram.
Jordan recently opened up about how music makes him feel creatively and how it coincides with other parts of his career.
“Music has been the most informing part of my life for forever because it’s the thing that makes me tick and makes me want to create the most,” he told Billboard. “Certain songs will make me think of something that inspires the concept of a script or another record. They all coexist simultaneously and that’s the beauty of what we get to do.”
