Like I made eye contact with Bill Ny, 71 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:22,839 Speaker 3: the science guy, and I was like, it was just 72 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 3: so cool. And obviously so nerve wracking. But I was 73 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 3: like it was bringing up so many memories for me, 74 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 3: good and bad, because I remember my body falling apart. 75 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 3: I remember, uh, I didn't think I was good enough. 76 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 3: I remember like Ardam was very hard because that's how 77 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 3: he's like he was. He was trained growing up by Russians. 78 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 3: He's Russian like, they just have a different delivering.

It 143 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 3: was like you step in the practice room and you 144 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 3: are learning and sweating and just grinding and through everything. 145 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 3: And then now it's like they spend an hour of 146 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 3: their rehearsal time doing tiktoks because ah, because that's like 147 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 3: that like matters, which is crazy, because TikTok has become 148 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 3: such a thing and this it's it's got, you know, 149 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 3: the show has now they have their og people who 150 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 3: always will watch, and then they brought this new gen 151 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 3: Z generation of TikTokers, so it's become part of the show. 152 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 3: And so the first day we rehearsed for maybe like 153 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 3: an hour, and otherwise we were doing social media and 154 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 3: I was like, what is happening. I need to learn 155 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 3: this dance. This is so scary. And then day two 156 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 3: we really worked very hard, probably for about four hours. 157 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 3: And then the next day Emma had to film a 158 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 3: Christmas special and so it was just me and Andy 159 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 3: in the rehearsal space, which I actually think was the 160 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 3: biggest blessing because I think it helped that I have 161 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 3: taught dance before, so it was good because I could 162 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 3: count for him and I could do I learned my steps, 163 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 3: but I also learned his, so I could really help 164 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 3: us both do like make the most of our time 165 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 3: without Emma. But I think that's what helped the most, 166 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 3: because we had no other choice but to get through 167 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 3: it just us and figure out the timing and count 168 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 3: through everything and communicate through and everything.
