While speaking with PEOPLE following week two of Dancing with the Stars, Tran, who is partnered with pro Sasha Farber, opened up about how their working relationship got them through an unexpected challenge. The duo were first to hit the dance floor on Tuesday, Sept. 24, performing a tango to the track "A Little Party Never Killed Nobody" by Fergie, GoonRock, and Q-Tip. However, a technical issue led to the couple performing their The Great Gatsby-inspired routine while not being able to hear their music.

I'm honestly really proud of myself too because I do think something like that could really mess with someone's head," she reflected, noting that she's "so happy" to have a partner she can "rely on." Farber adds that Tran is "a true professional," taking the dance with "a lot of steps" on since she's never had experience.
