Jake T. Austin On His 'DWTS' Elimination: 'I Wish I Could've Done Better'
Jake T. Austin and Jenna Johnson talk to the hosts of Dancing With The Stars after being the first couple eliminated from the competition on Tuesday night (September 20) in Los Angeles.
The team — Team JSquared — said goodbye to the ballroom floor after being put in jeopardy along with Ryan Lochte, Maureen McCormick and Amber Rose.
“I wish I could’ve done better. I mean, there’s mixed emotions. Overall I’m really lucky, I’m really happy,” Jake shared with EOnline afterwards. “Just a little bummed out, other than that this was an awesome experience.”
He added about his experiences, “This was my worst fear to be honest with you. When we were standing on that stage I was like, ‘Please don’t let it be me.’ And it happened. You prepare for the worst, hope for the best. It was the opportunity of a lifetime. Learning from Jenna was an unforgettable experience and I mean that in every sense of the word. It was incredible.”
“It’s not as easy as it looks. It’s obviously a way to test yourself…I’m really happy I got out there and I did it.”
