WEBVTT - Miss Foxtrot

0:00:08.720 --> 0:00:16.239
<v Speaker 1>Misspelling with Tory spelling an iHeartRadio podcast. So the live

0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:20.440
<v Speaker 1>premiere of Dancing with the Stars is four days out.

0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:24.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, I don't believe this is gonna happen.

0:00:25.520 --> 0:00:28.760
<v Speaker 1>You guys, It's gonna happen. The show's gonna go on.

0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:33.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be in it. This is so crazy. I

0:00:33.520 --> 0:00:37.000
<v Speaker 1>can't believe I'm on this wild ride. And I gotta

0:00:37.080 --> 0:00:42.880
<v Speaker 1>say this so far has been one of the best

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:48.160
<v Speaker 1>experiences I've ever done. Now I'm just a newbie. It's

0:00:48.280 --> 0:00:54.480
<v Speaker 1>just week one. I'm sure it's gonna get unbearably hard.

0:00:55.240 --> 0:01:00.240
<v Speaker 1>It's already unbearably hard, but like in the best joyous way.

0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:04.720
<v Speaker 1>So my partner Pasha and I have been rehearsing every

0:01:04.800 --> 0:01:07.839
<v Speaker 1>day and I think I told you this last time,

0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:09.840
<v Speaker 1>but you know, when I watched the show, I'm like,

0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:13.920
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, they must have been rehearsing this forever.

0:01:14.720 --> 0:01:18.399
<v Speaker 1>It's perfect. And you don't you get you know, a

0:01:18.400 --> 0:01:20.640
<v Speaker 1>certain amount of days for the first dance, and then

0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:23.960
<v Speaker 1>five days for every week after. You get to practice

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:26.200
<v Speaker 1>and it's like, what, so you learn a new dance

0:01:26.760 --> 0:01:29.759
<v Speaker 1>and we're doing the foxtrot. I can't say anything else

0:01:29.800 --> 0:01:32.640
<v Speaker 1>but that is our technical dance is the fox Trot,

0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:37.720
<v Speaker 1>and it's it's been a lot. They play your song

0:01:38.319 --> 0:01:41.760
<v Speaker 1>and it's a minute of the song. Now, when I

0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 1>first heard about this, I was like, gosh, they're only

0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:48.280
<v Speaker 1>playing a minute of our song and he's like dancing

0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:50.920
<v Speaker 1>for a minute. It's a lot. It's a long routine.

0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:54.480
<v Speaker 1>I was like, really, oh my gosh. I just had

0:01:54.560 --> 0:01:57.240
<v Speaker 1>no idea going into it. I was just a fan,

0:01:57.400 --> 0:02:00.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, just a viewer. But it's a it's a

0:02:00.680 --> 0:02:03.880
<v Speaker 1>long routine, and it's also getting to know each other.

0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's so commendable these dance pros. Like I

0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:10.640
<v Speaker 1>feel like I'm a big fan of the show, so

0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:14.040
<v Speaker 1>like I know all of them, like seeing them every week,

0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:17.120
<v Speaker 1>I know all of them. Oh my gosh. Uh you

0:02:17.120 --> 0:02:19.400
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean. You see them every week and

0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:24.880
<v Speaker 1>you get so invested with them and their celebrities each season.

0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:29.240
<v Speaker 1>But I gotta say, just like now being on the

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:34.200
<v Speaker 1>other side of it, working with my partner, he I mean,

0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:37.520
<v Speaker 1>his work ethic is insane. And I said to him

0:02:37.520 --> 0:02:40.320
<v Speaker 1>the other day, I said, I appreciate you because I

0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:43.080
<v Speaker 1>thought I had good work ethic, but yours is next

0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:46.160
<v Speaker 1>level upon level upon level upon level, and keep in

0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:49.320
<v Speaker 1>mind his wife, Danny, is also a dance pro. She

0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:51.880
<v Speaker 1>is dancing with Dwight Howard this season, who is the

0:02:51.919 --> 0:02:53.520
<v Speaker 1>tallest man I've ever seen in my life. I think

0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:56.720
<v Speaker 1>he's seven feet. They have a daughter who's just over

0:02:56.760 --> 0:02:59.440
<v Speaker 1>a year, and they're doing all of this. I'm like,

0:02:59.480 --> 0:03:01.760
<v Speaker 1>oh my god. I used to be like, oh my god,

0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing so much. I have five kids, look at

0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:06.679
<v Speaker 1>all my pickups and drop offs, and now I see

0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:10.440
<v Speaker 1>what they do and I'm like, shut up to myself,

0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:14.560
<v Speaker 1>like this is nothing. But then you add all this

0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:19.359
<v Speaker 1>dancing stuff and it's a lot again. But anyway, every season,

0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:22.520
<v Speaker 1>when a dance pro gets partnered with their celebrity partner,

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:29.560
<v Speaker 1>they can't just come in with like one main teaching technique.

0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:31.800
<v Speaker 1>This is my opinion from what I've seen. Pasha had

0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:36.440
<v Speaker 1>to do with me, because everybody is different, everybody learns differently.

0:03:36.760 --> 0:03:40.160
<v Speaker 1>And the thing that's been the most challenging for me,

0:03:40.440 --> 0:03:42.280
<v Speaker 1>and I knew this going into it, and I'd said

0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:44.640
<v Speaker 1>it like I've always said, like when I had to

0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:48.040
<v Speaker 1>do any choreography and movies or TV shows, like it

0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:53.400
<v Speaker 1>would take forever, Like the dance steps wouldn't click, and

0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:55.880
<v Speaker 1>it was the same with this. He would show me

0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:59.560
<v Speaker 1>a dance move and I could do it, but then

0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:03.080
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't remember it. So I could remember it, but

0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:05.480
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't remember if he added another one on. It's

0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:09.400
<v Speaker 1>like what is that game? Like Simon says like yeah, no,

0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:12.440
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, if you into it, I'd be like, wait,

0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:15.360
<v Speaker 1>what's the first one? Again? It was just it's interesting

0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:17.960
<v Speaker 1>to see how they have so much on their plate

0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:20.359
<v Speaker 1>that they come in and they have to each season

0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:24.680
<v Speaker 1>be like okay, well because, for instance, from watching the show,

0:04:24.839 --> 0:04:27.719
<v Speaker 1>I know he had Ariano Maddox last season, who is

0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:33.040
<v Speaker 1>amazing and she picked up the steps really quick. So

0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:36.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, oh my gosh. I just rewatched the season

0:04:36.160 --> 0:04:39.719
<v Speaker 1>premiere yesterday of Dancing with the Stars season thirty two,

0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:45.200
<v Speaker 1>just for a little refresher course. And I called Pash

0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:46.800
<v Speaker 1>afterwards and I was like, I shouldn't have watched that,

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:50.240
<v Speaker 1>and he's like why, and he's like, no, no, no, no,

0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:54.040
<v Speaker 1>it's good to watch, so you know, so you're prepared,

0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:56.960
<v Speaker 1>you know what's going to happen, he thought. I was like,

0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:00.159
<v Speaker 1>I was like, no, I tanked myself. I'm spiraling and

0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:02.600
<v Speaker 1>he's like no, no, no, no, it's good. So now you know,

0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:06.120
<v Speaker 1>and like just a refresher on and there's the audience

0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:09.880
<v Speaker 1>and the judges and where everything is. And I was like,

0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:12.760
<v Speaker 1>oh no, no, no, that didn't tank me. I was like,

0:05:12.800 --> 0:05:15.960
<v Speaker 1>what tanked me? Is you saying how fast Ariana picked

0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:19.680
<v Speaker 1>up the dance moves and how good she is? And

0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:24.640
<v Speaker 1>all I could think is oh, poor Pasha. He called me.

0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:27.760
<v Speaker 1>He's like, oh my god, are you kidding? And I

0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:32.839
<v Speaker 1>was like, yeah, welcome to my brain. So the way

0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:35.120
<v Speaker 1>that was best, I think for him to teach me

0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:37.560
<v Speaker 1>was not like all the moves, so the whole one

0:05:37.640 --> 0:05:41.000
<v Speaker 1>minute song, but we would break it up into like

0:05:41.320 --> 0:05:46.080
<v Speaker 1>three parts and I would learn them and some days

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.840
<v Speaker 1>we would work on just one part and some days

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:52.320
<v Speaker 1>we'd try to put two words together. Anyway, I'm very

0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:56.520
<v Speaker 1>excited because my dance moves are finally clicking into my brain,

0:05:57.320 --> 0:06:01.520
<v Speaker 1>which is good. Pasha says that my strength, thanks are

0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:08.719
<v Speaker 1>my arms, my posture and my hands. Said, no one ever,

0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:14.840
<v Speaker 1>this is so crazy, you guys. Posture. I was told

0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:17.920
<v Speaker 1>my whole life side bad posture. I'm not kidding you guys,

0:06:18.760 --> 0:06:24.279
<v Speaker 1>because I did. I was told I literally I have

0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:27.440
<v Speaker 1>bad posture, like I walk around like turtle girdle, like

0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:30.239
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, Like we look out look at pictures

0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:34.640
<v Speaker 1>and stuff, but this I don't know. Once I started dancing,

0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:36.679
<v Speaker 1>I was like, well, here I am. I'm an actress

0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:39.440
<v Speaker 1>playing the part of a dancer. I stand up straight.

0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:43.800
<v Speaker 1>So I did, and he says it looks good and

0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:49.400
<v Speaker 1>I have good arm moves, good thing for nails. But yeah,

0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:53.440
<v Speaker 1>it's all about my arms and that's good because maybe

0:06:53.440 --> 0:06:55.719
<v Speaker 1>you won't look at my feet. My feet are doing okay,

0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:58.320
<v Speaker 1>you know what, you know what, you guys. I'm surprising

0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:02.919
<v Speaker 1>myself through this journey. I really really am, because obviously

0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:04.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, I said no, no, no, no no, I'll

0:07:04.760 --> 0:07:07.480
<v Speaker 1>never be good enough to do this show. And then

0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:10.280
<v Speaker 1>I said yes to the show because it's new me,

0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:14.880
<v Speaker 1>new chapter facing my fears. And I know it's only

0:07:14.920 --> 0:07:20.120
<v Speaker 1>been like two weeks, but I'm really surprising myself with

0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:26.040
<v Speaker 1>how much I can sustain. I asked Pasha the other day.

0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:29.640
<v Speaker 1>We were training in one of the rooms and they

0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:32.240
<v Speaker 1>have you know that you've seen on the show The

0:07:32.320 --> 0:07:35.520
<v Speaker 1>Dance Studio every season, and it has all of the

0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:37.760
<v Speaker 1>Mirror Ball winners, not all of them, but across one

0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:40.080
<v Speaker 1>wall because obviously there's thirty two. That'd be a lot

0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 1>of photos on that wall, and it wasn't big enough.

0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:45.800
<v Speaker 1>But and I was just looking up looking at all

0:07:45.840 --> 0:07:49.720
<v Speaker 1>of them, and I said to Pasha, has an average

0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:54.320
<v Speaker 1>Joe or Jane ever won? And he's like, what does

0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:58.360
<v Speaker 1>that mean? And I was like, you know, someone normal

0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:02.760
<v Speaker 1>like me? And he's like, you're normal. I'm like no, no, no, okay,

0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:06.600
<v Speaker 1>wait me, let me find another word. And I was like, well,

0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:10.120
<v Speaker 1>and I said, I just feel like everybody who has

0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:17.520
<v Speaker 1>one has had some sort of you know, movement training

0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:20.440
<v Speaker 1>in their life. Like you know, obviously athletes have won,

0:08:21.160 --> 0:08:25.520
<v Speaker 1>but any actors that have won, if you like look

0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:27.960
<v Speaker 1>at the resume or whatever, look back, you know they

0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:31.680
<v Speaker 1>had dance experience in training, you know, as a kid

0:08:31.840 --> 0:08:36.080
<v Speaker 1>or something like. I don't feel like anyone has ever

0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:42.240
<v Speaker 1>come into this competition that has zero movement skills and

0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:47.520
<v Speaker 1>has won it. Food for thought. But wouldn't that be cool?

0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:50.960
<v Speaker 1>Because I know when I watched this show, I'm watching

0:08:51.000 --> 0:08:54.440
<v Speaker 1>it as you know, the average Jane out there. I

0:08:54.440 --> 0:08:56.480
<v Speaker 1>don't like not in my head like oh, I'm a

0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:59.040
<v Speaker 1>celebrity and like, oh, I know all those celebrities on there.

0:08:59.520 --> 0:09:02.000
<v Speaker 1>I truly go into the mind of a viewer, Like

0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:05.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm a fangirl, right and when I'm watching, I'm just like,

0:09:05.120 --> 0:09:08.240
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, I probably think what everyone thinks, like

0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:10.880
<v Speaker 1>I wish I could be that girl, like, oh my gosh,

0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:15.480
<v Speaker 1>that looks so amazing, and that'd be really cool if

0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:20.600
<v Speaker 1>some person, that some unlikely person want it. I'm not

0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:22.679
<v Speaker 1>gunning for you to vote for me. That's not why

0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:24.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing this right now. I mean, if you like

0:09:24.920 --> 0:09:27.360
<v Speaker 1>what you see, please vote for me. It would be cool.

0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:31.599
<v Speaker 1>I don't know anyway. I'm done with my rants? Is

0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:45.719
<v Speaker 1>that a ramts? So I really am enjoying the process

0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:51.120
<v Speaker 1>of my dance clothes. Just like to tell you the

0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:55.640
<v Speaker 1>things that I really enjoy. Everybody else comes to rehearsals

0:09:55.640 --> 0:10:00.000
<v Speaker 1>and training with workout clothes on. I don't own workout

0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:07.040
<v Speaker 1>for obvious reasons. You may know of that. But I

0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:09.800
<v Speaker 1>got leg warmers for days. Let me just tell you

0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:12.960
<v Speaker 1>I have a leg warmer collection. I think I've talked

0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:16.000
<v Speaker 1>about it before. If I haven't, I don't know why

0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:19.000
<v Speaker 1>I haven't. So out of storage, you know that the

0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:23.800
<v Speaker 1>storage I found a box of leg warmers and forty

0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:26.319
<v Speaker 1>two of them because I collect leg warmers, and I've

0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:29.280
<v Speaker 1>collected them, and that was just one box. They're not

0:10:29.559 --> 0:10:33.160
<v Speaker 1>including my current situation of leg warmers or other boxes

0:10:33.160 --> 0:10:37.040
<v Speaker 1>of leg warmers. Just one box had forty two that

0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:40.880
<v Speaker 1>was from like just one decade. But yeah, since I

0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:45.400
<v Speaker 1>was twelve, I've been collecting leg warmers. That sounds weird,

0:10:45.720 --> 0:10:49.599
<v Speaker 1>collecting leg warmers. I'm a leg warmer hoarder. Well, I

0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:54.319
<v Speaker 1>like to be the first for something cool. No, I

0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:59.720
<v Speaker 1>got obsessed with watching like Fame and Flash Dance when

0:10:59.840 --> 0:11:03.160
<v Speaker 1>I was a kid, And I think I've talked about this,

0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:06.600
<v Speaker 1>but I would set up my boom box, my cassette

0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:09.679
<v Speaker 1>player and put my cassette tape in from Flash Dance.

0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:13.200
<v Speaker 1>And my parents own a beach house and during the

0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:16.680
<v Speaker 1>summer we would go there when we weren't Vegas, so

0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 1>Vegas beach house and it's in Malibu and there's it's

0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:26.280
<v Speaker 1>on a private, beautiful beach, stars all around us, like

0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:29.920
<v Speaker 1>on every side, like when I was a kid, Like

0:11:30.679 --> 0:11:33.920
<v Speaker 1>the Bridges were on one side, Lloyd Bridges and Bow

0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:39.160
<v Speaker 1>Bridges and Jeff Bridges, the whole family, and there was

0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:42.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm blanking some huge football player on the other side

0:11:42.280 --> 0:11:46.520
<v Speaker 1>of us. And then down the beach like the Jacksons

0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:48.520
<v Speaker 1>grew up there. It was like literally like this is

0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:50.679
<v Speaker 1>when I was a baby, like the Jackson five, Like,

0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:53.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it was like crazy, so but it's twelve.

0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:56.520
<v Speaker 1>I would go out onto the deck and I would

0:11:56.559 --> 0:11:59.200
<v Speaker 1>put on Flash Dance and put on my leg warmers,

0:12:00.520 --> 0:12:03.319
<v Speaker 1>and I more than that. I mean I had clothes on,

0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:06.680
<v Speaker 1>but the key points here are put on Flash Dance,

0:12:06.720 --> 0:12:10.720
<v Speaker 1>put on leg warmers, and I would dance across the

0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:14.200
<v Speaker 1>beach deck. Usually just on a weekday because it was

0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:16.400
<v Speaker 1>like really like everyone was at work because it was

0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:18.280
<v Speaker 1>all like famous people on the beach, so they were

0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:21.199
<v Speaker 1>all like filming or something I don't know. On weekends,

0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:22.679
<v Speaker 1>like all the kids and teens would comes, so I

0:12:22.720 --> 0:12:25.200
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't do it. But during the week it was pretty yeah,

0:12:25.360 --> 0:12:27.520
<v Speaker 1>it was pretty quiet, so I felt like I could

0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:30.480
<v Speaker 1>just like pretend to be a dancer, pretend to be

0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:34.480
<v Speaker 1>in flash Dance. But anyway, that started my love of

0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:39.160
<v Speaker 1>leg warmers and now putting it all together, it's all

0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:42.720
<v Speaker 1>coming full circle. Set of pirouet Do I talk dance now?

0:12:42.840 --> 0:12:45.720
<v Speaker 1>Is that right? I am able to wear my leg

0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:48.840
<v Speaker 1>warmers and I wear them every day because now you

0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:53.160
<v Speaker 1>know me, tradition. I like tradition, and I get superstitious,

0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:55.800
<v Speaker 1>so I'm like, okay, okay, legwarmers, gotta wear my leg warmers.

0:12:55.840 --> 0:13:00.520
<v Speaker 1>So I wear my leg warmers every single day. And

0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:03.120
<v Speaker 1>I get to be that girl. You guys like that

0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:09.000
<v Speaker 1>girl and flashdance like girls in Fain, Like, oh, I

0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:12.120
<v Speaker 1>get to do that every single day, and so blessed.

0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:14.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know where this will go, but the fact

0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:19.320
<v Speaker 1>that I get to go in and rehearse with this

0:13:19.400 --> 0:13:23.560
<v Speaker 1>incredible human that is so supportive and patient and kind

0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:29.240
<v Speaker 1>and so talented. I adore Pasha so much and we're

0:13:29.280 --> 0:13:31.400
<v Speaker 1>like the perfect fit. Yeah, I get to do this

0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:33.280
<v Speaker 1>every day. So as long as this goes on, I'm

0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:36.400
<v Speaker 1>just going to be like, wow, so much gratitude that

0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:39.319
<v Speaker 1>I said yes to this and get to go in

0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:42.520
<v Speaker 1>and do this. And I wear like slip dresses. I

0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:45.959
<v Speaker 1>wear things that make me feel cute. But I can

0:13:46.000 --> 0:13:49.960
<v Speaker 1>work out because you know, I figure. I didn't figure.

0:13:50.000 --> 0:13:51.199
<v Speaker 1>I just did it, and then I was like, oh,

0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:53.440
<v Speaker 1>but it's a good idea. You know, you wear a

0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:56.480
<v Speaker 1>dress on stage, so I might as well get used

0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:59.720
<v Speaker 1>to it. But I just I don't know, work out

0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:03.360
<v Speaker 1>here wouldn't make me feel confident. I feel confident in

0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:07.720
<v Speaker 1>my dresses and my little tank tops and I don't

0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:11.840
<v Speaker 1>know leg warmers, So I wear what makes me feel good,

0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:23.400
<v Speaker 1>and then I feel like I'm a better dancer. So

0:14:23.640 --> 0:14:28.600
<v Speaker 1>the closer it gets to the actual day, the more

0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:33.360
<v Speaker 1>real it becomes. I did my fitting yesterday for my dress,

0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:39.480
<v Speaker 1>and that was really exciting. Daniella, the costume designer, is unbelievable.

0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:43.240
<v Speaker 1>She's amazing, and it's kind of full circle. She had

0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:47.000
<v Speaker 1>worked a long time ago on Charms and so she

0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:51.280
<v Speaker 1>knew my dad and so it's really cool and I

0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:55.560
<v Speaker 1>adore her and secretly, like yesterday, had to go to

0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:58.800
<v Speaker 1>my fitting and then like we just sit on the

0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.600
<v Speaker 1>floor and play. Afterwards we were like making things and

0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:03.920
<v Speaker 1>cutting up like lace and stuff, and I was like, oh,

0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:05.600
<v Speaker 1>I just want to I can sit here and play

0:15:05.600 --> 0:15:09.000
<v Speaker 1>with you all day because it's just my world in there.

0:15:09.280 --> 0:15:13.119
<v Speaker 1>But I did get to fit my dress and Daniella

0:15:13.240 --> 0:15:16.880
<v Speaker 1>and I designed it together, which was really cool because

0:15:17.040 --> 0:15:19.800
<v Speaker 1>you get to you're not just put into something on

0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:22.760
<v Speaker 1>the show. You really get to be as hands on

0:15:22.840 --> 0:15:26.520
<v Speaker 1>as you want to be. And you guys know, I

0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:30.200
<v Speaker 1>love being hands on with everything that's in the world

0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:35.440
<v Speaker 1>of creation. So with my dress, it starts with a

0:15:35.480 --> 0:15:39.240
<v Speaker 1>creative deck, which god, I love a good creative deck.

0:15:41.120 --> 0:15:43.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure some celebrities are like, oh cool, great, you

0:15:43.920 --> 0:15:47.640
<v Speaker 1>know it's not their thing. But for me, you know,

0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:50.920
<v Speaker 1>that's where my brain and heart and soul lives. So

0:15:51.600 --> 0:15:55.000
<v Speaker 1>I get to pick my song. Then what happens is

0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:57.720
<v Speaker 1>when you pick your song, and the first one is

0:15:57.800 --> 0:16:00.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of for each celebrity there anthem a song that

0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:05.640
<v Speaker 1>really speaks to them and where you know they are now.

0:16:06.040 --> 0:16:10.320
<v Speaker 1>And this song I picked, it's very personal and I

0:16:10.360 --> 0:16:13.840
<v Speaker 1>hope you enjoy it. I don't think you'll really put

0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:17.400
<v Speaker 1>together like foxtrot and this song, which is why I

0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:21.880
<v Speaker 1>think it's rad because foxtrot, to me is something so traditional.

0:16:22.000 --> 0:16:25.880
<v Speaker 1>It's traditionally a ballroom dance, right, so all of the dances, technically,

0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:28.360
<v Speaker 1>you're kind of taking them outside the box, which is

0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:30.880
<v Speaker 1>such a cool world to be in right now, you know,

0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:35.160
<v Speaker 1>doing that with current music and traditional dance. So the

0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:37.760
<v Speaker 1>creative deck, you have a zoom meeting with the whole

0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:40.760
<v Speaker 1>creative team, and justin that runs the creative team is

0:16:40.880 --> 0:16:44.840
<v Speaker 1>amazing and I'm such a huge fan. And yeah, so

0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:47.200
<v Speaker 1>we do a zoom and call and they go through

0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:50.440
<v Speaker 1>the deck, which is like a visual of the set

0:16:50.680 --> 0:16:54.520
<v Speaker 1>of how it'll look and the color palette, and then

0:16:54.880 --> 0:17:02.400
<v Speaker 1>like the transitions into movements through whether there's props or

0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:07.560
<v Speaker 1>just color or lights or you know, change in things

0:17:07.760 --> 0:17:11.320
<v Speaker 1>go into your wardrobe like an inspiration picture and then

0:17:11.400 --> 0:17:15.760
<v Speaker 1>hair inspiration picture, makeup inspiration picture. And it was so

0:17:16.000 --> 0:17:19.160
<v Speaker 1>cool to be a part of that process with them,

0:17:19.520 --> 0:17:22.840
<v Speaker 1>and the fact that they allowed me. I was so

0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:28.080
<v Speaker 1>happy and felt so grateful, and they came into it

0:17:28.119 --> 0:17:31.679
<v Speaker 1>with such cool ideas and I was like, wait, I was, like,

0:17:31.840 --> 0:17:34.280
<v Speaker 1>I said to Justin, he's the creative director. I said,

0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:38.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm a big Pinterest girl, Like, oh, it's my happy

0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:41.679
<v Speaker 1>place Pinterest. I said, would you be offended if I

0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:43.600
<v Speaker 1>made a pinterress board just to share with you? And

0:17:43.600 --> 0:17:45.800
<v Speaker 1>he was like, no, I love that. So I made

0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:49.000
<v Speaker 1>it a Pinterest board for my song that I'm dancing too,

0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:53.920
<v Speaker 1>and I shared it with him and it was awesome

0:17:54.080 --> 0:17:57.639
<v Speaker 1>because it really helped him see where my vision was

0:17:57.680 --> 0:18:00.520
<v Speaker 1>coming from. Since sometimes I'm not good with my I know,

0:18:00.560 --> 0:18:03.919
<v Speaker 1>I talk a lot, but sometimes feelings and emotions I

0:18:03.920 --> 0:18:06.119
<v Speaker 1>can't put into the right word, but I can put

0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:10.320
<v Speaker 1>it into a picture very easily. So so yeah, I

0:18:10.359 --> 0:18:14.320
<v Speaker 1>was able to share that and collectively we drew from

0:18:14.440 --> 0:18:16.919
<v Speaker 1>both of ours everything that you're going to see. And

0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:21.159
<v Speaker 1>I'm super excited about it and my dress. So I

0:18:21.200 --> 0:18:24.280
<v Speaker 1>tried it on yesterday the fitting, and then you know,

0:18:24.359 --> 0:18:26.920
<v Speaker 1>we have to go through details like can you move

0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:29.160
<v Speaker 1>in it? You know, because I'm going up and down

0:18:29.240 --> 0:18:33.640
<v Speaker 1>and doing some doing some tricks. I don't know they're

0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:38.040
<v Speaker 1>called tricks, but I'm doing some stuff, and you know,

0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:39.800
<v Speaker 1>I have to see how my dress will move. And

0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:44.399
<v Speaker 1>I also had to learn that a conventional fox trot

0:18:44.520 --> 0:18:47.480
<v Speaker 1>dress is like a totally covered dress. It goes to

0:18:47.520 --> 0:18:52.560
<v Speaker 1>your ankles, it swings around, and in my brain, I

0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:57.600
<v Speaker 1>was creating a dress for the Red carpet. So so

0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:01.840
<v Speaker 1>yesterday we had to kind of alter it a little

0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:07.440
<v Speaker 1>bit because Danielle my vision, like she executed it was amazing.

0:19:08.040 --> 0:19:11.879
<v Speaker 1>But then in reality, once I really put married the

0:19:11.880 --> 0:19:16.440
<v Speaker 1>two together in my head and showed Pasha, it was like, technically,

0:19:16.520 --> 0:19:19.959
<v Speaker 1>a fox dress doesn't have a slit in it. I

0:19:20.000 --> 0:19:22.120
<v Speaker 1>was like, I know, we're thinking outside the box, right,

0:19:22.520 --> 0:19:24.919
<v Speaker 1>And I was like no, but it all kind of

0:19:24.960 --> 0:19:27.840
<v Speaker 1>has to be cohesive or it doesn't work, you know.

0:19:28.600 --> 0:19:30.800
<v Speaker 1>So I had to let go of the red carpet

0:19:30.840 --> 0:19:35.480
<v Speaker 1>dream and we're sealing that slit up a little bit

0:19:35.760 --> 0:19:40.480
<v Speaker 1>because I'd prefer in the long run, beautiful, graceful movements,

0:19:40.480 --> 0:19:42.800
<v Speaker 1>and that includes the dress and the weight of the

0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:46.680
<v Speaker 1>fabric and when I spin, getting that air in the dress.

0:19:46.760 --> 0:19:54.280
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, sorry, it's like a fashion tutorial suddenly anyway.

0:19:54.840 --> 0:19:56.359
<v Speaker 1>So I haven't decided how I'm going to wear my

0:19:56.400 --> 0:19:59.800
<v Speaker 1>hair yet. I just yesterday during rehearsal for the first time.

0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:02.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm not gonna lie. My hair is a

0:20:02.320 --> 0:20:06.800
<v Speaker 1>hot fucking mess like it is. I don't know how

0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:11.760
<v Speaker 1>people dance in extensions because I want to rip them

0:20:11.760 --> 0:20:15.840
<v Speaker 1>all out. And I'm sweating. And I said to Pasha,

0:20:15.880 --> 0:20:20.639
<v Speaker 1>I was like, you don't understand. I don't sweat, And

0:20:20.640 --> 0:20:22.800
<v Speaker 1>He's like, what do you mean, Like you don't sweat,

0:20:23.160 --> 0:20:26.080
<v Speaker 1>And I was like like often, I was like no,

0:20:26.560 --> 0:20:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I don't sweat, Like I've worn like deodorant

0:20:31.080 --> 0:20:33.080
<v Speaker 1>like a handful of times, like I don't have bo

0:20:33.200 --> 0:20:38.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't sweat. I don't know, And you guys, I'm

0:20:38.200 --> 0:20:42.199
<v Speaker 1>sweating like I am drenched head to toe I mean,

0:20:42.240 --> 0:20:47.119
<v Speaker 1>I still don't smell but drenched head's toe for like

0:20:47.280 --> 0:20:53.760
<v Speaker 1>four hours straight and I'm like, wow, who is this girl?

0:20:54.119 --> 0:20:58.159
<v Speaker 1>This is crazy? And why SHA's so proud? He's like,

0:20:58.880 --> 0:21:01.760
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, I'm so so. I'm a sweaty mess,

0:21:01.800 --> 0:21:03.760
<v Speaker 1>like you start to feel bad. They're used to this,

0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:07.440
<v Speaker 1>like your dancers, and he's like, this is good, this

0:21:07.480 --> 0:21:11.040
<v Speaker 1>is great. You're sweating, and I'm like, oh, yeah, we're

0:21:11.040 --> 0:21:15.359
<v Speaker 1>doing something right here. But yeah, my hair like not

0:21:15.400 --> 0:21:17.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna lie. I haven't washed my hair since last week.

0:21:18.080 --> 0:21:20.280
<v Speaker 1>I do shower daily, but I put my hair up

0:21:20.280 --> 0:21:23.040
<v Speaker 1>because my hair is too hard, like with all these

0:21:23.119 --> 0:21:26.760
<v Speaker 1>extensions I know I did to myself, you know, like

0:21:26.880 --> 0:21:29.120
<v Speaker 1>suck it up, buttercup, you bottom, they're in your head.

0:21:29.240 --> 0:21:31.520
<v Speaker 1>You know. I don't have to have extensions, but I

0:21:31.760 --> 0:21:35.720
<v Speaker 1>like how they look. But washing them, oh my god.

0:21:36.240 --> 0:21:39.919
<v Speaker 1>If I'm gonna put an hour into blow drying these suckers,

0:21:40.160 --> 0:21:43.080
<v Speaker 1>like uh uh, I'd rather put that hour into my rehearsal.

0:21:43.440 --> 0:21:45.240
<v Speaker 1>So if anyone would like to offer to come over

0:21:45.280 --> 0:21:47.040
<v Speaker 1>and wash my hair for me and blow it out,

0:21:47.520 --> 0:21:50.479
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't be mad, just saying, but yeah, dry shampoo.

0:21:50.520 --> 0:21:53.679
<v Speaker 1>Thank God for dry shampoo. It's like, we're going life safer.

0:21:54.240 --> 0:21:57.600
<v Speaker 1>So but I wear my hair back in a ponytail

0:21:57.880 --> 0:22:01.440
<v Speaker 1>or bunt, which everyone knows I don't like doing because

0:22:01.520 --> 0:22:04.280
<v Speaker 1>I feel more confident when my hair's down and on

0:22:04.280 --> 0:22:07.760
<v Speaker 1>my face, I know, but I wear it back because

0:22:07.760 --> 0:22:10.879
<v Speaker 1>we're dancing and we're sweating and doing this. But yesterday

0:22:10.880 --> 0:22:14.080
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh, on the show, which we're four

0:22:14.119 --> 0:22:17.040
<v Speaker 1>days out, I'm not going to have my hair back,

0:22:17.119 --> 0:22:19.399
<v Speaker 1>Like there is going to be some version of my

0:22:19.520 --> 0:22:23.000
<v Speaker 1>hair down, maybe half up. I don't know yet. I

0:22:23.000 --> 0:22:28.080
<v Speaker 1>haven't gotten that bar yet, just my Pinterest pictures. But

0:22:29.800 --> 0:22:32.520
<v Speaker 1>I better start feeling what it's like if my hair

0:22:32.600 --> 0:22:35.240
<v Speaker 1>does whip around to know if I can keep going.

0:22:35.480 --> 0:22:38.119
<v Speaker 1>So I wore my hair half up half down yesterday

0:22:38.160 --> 0:22:42.840
<v Speaker 1>for the first time, and it's like it's crazy and

0:22:42.880 --> 0:22:46.440
<v Speaker 1>it looked okay, she did good. And I do come

0:22:46.480 --> 0:22:49.440
<v Speaker 1>into rehearsal every day with my sugar free red Bull

0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:56.600
<v Speaker 1>and Pasha promptly hands me water, purified water, not in

0:22:56.640 --> 0:23:01.879
<v Speaker 1>plastic and guess what you guys dreaking? I know, I

0:23:01.920 --> 0:23:06.359
<v Speaker 1>know you just shook this episode, Like who am I? Like,

0:23:06.440 --> 0:23:11.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know who I am anymore. This is like, yeah,

0:23:11.400 --> 0:23:13.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm not gonna go full on out here

0:23:13.400 --> 0:23:15.919
<v Speaker 1>and be like I'm Tori. I'm a water drinker now.

0:23:16.000 --> 0:23:20.359
<v Speaker 1>But when you're dancing for four hours straight and like

0:23:20.760 --> 0:23:23.920
<v Speaker 1>you've done your whole minute routine and then your partner's

0:23:24.000 --> 0:23:28.240
<v Speaker 1>like great again, great again. In my dreams, I'm gonna

0:23:28.280 --> 0:23:34.800
<v Speaker 1>have like hear him saying again again again in the

0:23:34.840 --> 0:23:40.320
<v Speaker 1>cutest accent. But and you're sweating so bad and you're

0:23:40.320 --> 0:23:42.760
<v Speaker 1>just like trying to catch your breath. Guess what it

0:23:42.800 --> 0:23:46.919
<v Speaker 1>works out people, you get thirsty. I thought there was

0:23:47.000 --> 0:23:50.600
<v Speaker 1>something behind this. I for years said I just hate water.

0:23:50.720 --> 0:23:55.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't like it. I don't know. Maybe no, maybe

0:23:55.040 --> 0:23:58.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm allergic to it. No. I just wasn't breaking a sweat.

0:23:58.760 --> 0:24:04.399
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't doing anything physical. Pretty simple. I am doing

0:24:04.480 --> 0:24:10.520
<v Speaker 1>physical work, which is making my body respond. My butt's

0:24:10.600 --> 0:24:13.080
<v Speaker 1>like wow, I was creeping halfway down the back of

0:24:13.160 --> 0:24:17.479
<v Speaker 1>your thigh almost to your knee, and good for you, girl, Okay,

0:24:18.480 --> 0:24:20.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm feeling good now. And guess what, it's gotten higher.

0:24:21.280 --> 0:24:24.800
<v Speaker 1>Like my body's responding. It's like thank you, thank you

0:24:24.880 --> 0:24:29.119
<v Speaker 1>for doing something for me. And I'm sweating, and so

0:24:29.160 --> 0:24:32.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm drinking water and I'm feeling okay with it. So

0:24:33.520 --> 0:24:37.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm Tory, I'm a dancer, and I stay high traded.

0:24:38.560 --> 0:24:39.159
<v Speaker 1>What about you,
