“Dancing With the Stars” alum Peta Murgatroyd is the co-founder of award-winning self-tanning brand Peta Jane Beauty. She is also a fantastic person to have as a boss, at least, that is if a recent video of her reaction to her employees playing a trick on her at her first PR event for the brand is anything to judge by.
Fans Praise Peta Murgatroyd for Her Wholesome Reaction to a Lighthearted Prank
A video was posted on the Peta Jane Beauty Instagram account last week, and in the short clip, Murgatroyd is filmed while an employee informs her that they are still hungry and there was not enough food at the event. She looks stressed for a second, and then she realizes they are messing with her when she is informed, “I feel like I could eat Donald Driver right now.” The pro dancer starts to laugh in relief.
Murgatroyd reacted to the post, writing, “Lily, you got me! Asp @donald_driver80 I miss youuuu.” Murgatroyd and retired NFL star Donald Driver competed on Season 14 of the show and took home the Mirrorball Trophy.
Fans have reacted to the post and have praised Murgatroyd. “The concern in her face (from someone being hungry) was so sweet! You can tell she’s a sweetheart!” a fan wrote. “I want a boss like Peta, she’s so cool,” another person shared. Other reactions include, “This just made my day. I couldn’t and still cannot stop laughing!” and “That was perfect.”
Peta Murgatroyd Calls 2025 the ‘Best Year Yet’
Another video from the evening was posted on Instagram, showing Murgatroyd posing for photos in front of a beautiful fireplace decorated with flowers. On the mantelpiece is a selection of her self-tanning bottles. The clip perfectly captures her fun personality and energy.
Murgatroyd posted some of these photos on her Instagram page, which gave fans a better look at the event. She shared her thoughts in the caption: “What A Night. Peta Jane Beauty hosted it’s first influencer/beauty editor dinner and it was everything & more,” she wrote. “Thank you to everyone who came to support me and my love for this brand. It truly is my baby. Thank you to my insanely talented team at PjB headquarters in NY …you’re fam for life!”
To end her message, Murgatroyd claimed that “2025 has been the best yet!”
Murgatroyd’s DWTS family showed their support for her in the comment section of the video. “Boss,” Julianne Hough commented. Jenna Johnson also reacted, writing, “Boss mama!!! So proud of you.” And Daniella Karagach wrote, “The best.”
