In 2016 I was cast on a reality dance competition show for influencers. It’s apparent that they only cast me based off the number of followers I had, without researching who I was— because when I showed up for filming, the producers were extremely upset. (1/more)
This thread’s a compilation I made of some of my screen time. For the first challenge, we were each given a prop & told to dance with it.

(6) Throughout the entire production, they had us doing to-camera confessionals, where I created my own B storyline in which I was falling madly in love with contestant Ashley. I refused to talk about anything else. They cut all of it.
(7) I knew I was going to lose, so right before the winner was announced, I interrupted the dramatic pause to give a speech where I stated something like, “I know I’m going to win, but I love Ashley, and can’t stand to watch her lose. Please give her my prize.” They cut that too.
