It was Sophia Pippen’s last night in the Dancing With the Stars: Juniors ballroom Sunday.
The daughter of Scottie Pippen, junior pro Jake Monreal and adult mentor Sasha Farber were eliminated at the end of Disney night after earning a 19/30 for their villainous samba to “Poor Unfortunate Souls” from The Little Mermaid.

Prior to the performance, Sophia admitted she was nervous for this week’s dance, saying, “I’m playing Ursula [from The Little Mermaid]. It’s going to be hard for me to be a villain in this dance because I’m really shy.”
She even got some special encouragement from godmother Kim Kardashian, who made a cameo to give little Sophia some advice from her own performance on the show’s seventh season
“I wasn’t on for very long. The rumba did me under,” she told the little girl. “I think my shyness really hurt me, so I really want you to be confident. You just have to like, let it go.”
