Lauren Alaina runs into Sailor Brinkley-Cook at the dance studio over the weekend in Los Angeles.
The 24-year-old singer and 21-year-old model/photographer caught up with each other as one was ending and the other was starting their rehearsals for the upcoming episode of Dancing With the Stars.
If you missed it, Lauren shared a funny story about her and partner, Gleb Savchenko‘s team name for the season.
“Introducing Team Tonkyhonk,” Lauren captioned on her Instagram. “You guys. I have to tell you how we got our team name. We did all of our first rehearsals in Nashville. Gleb came in one day and said, ‘What is a Tonkyhonk? Everyone keeps saying to go to the Tonkyhonks!’ I laughed so hard I almost peed my pants.”
She added, “I explained to him that it is HONKYTONK, but I loved it so much that it became our team name. I love my Russian (soon to be) cowboy. [Gleb] is Tonkyhonk.”
Stay tuned for both Lauren and Sailor‘s DWTS performances from tonight’s show!

Such sad news – model Christie Brinkley was injured and is no longer able to compete on Dancing with the Stars this season.
Her 21-year-old daughter, Sailor Brinkley-Cook, has stepped in to compete in her place this season.
“While rehearsing for the premiere of ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ Christie Brinkley suffered injuries which required surgery to her wrist and arm. She is unable to continue her planned participation on the show. Keeping it all in the family, her daughter Sailor Brinkley-Cook, a Sports Illustrated model, has chosen to quickly step in with hours to learn the entire routine and will compete in her mother’s place for the remainder of the season. We wish Christie a full and speedy recovery and look forward to seeing her in the audience, whenever possible, proudly supporting Sailor,” ABC told Just Jared Jr in a statement.
