The long-running and much-celebrated director of the reality show
Celebrity Ballroom, Wes Duncan, poked his head around the dressing
room door. “Plum, fifteen until showtime. How are you feeling?
Pumped?”
I opened my mouth to answer (not exactly sure how to respond),
but thankfully I didn’t have to since Wes barreled on anyway. “Tonight, I
need you to be bouncy, bubbly, effervescent—the girl America fell in
love with on EVERLYday. Ready to give them that thousand-watt
smile?”
No, I was not, in fact, ready. Far from it. My hair was still up in
curlers while my stomach was tied up in knots. I could not, would not,
vomit on live TV. If I’d somehow managed not to toss my cookies when
I ate goat eyeballs as a contestant on Guts or Glory Extreme Edition,
then there was absolutely no way I was letting a little two-step take me
down. I focused on inhaling deeply and slowly through my nose and
exhaling through my overlined and well-glossed lips.
Farrah Littman, the showrunner, squeezed past Wes, who was still
lingering in the doorway, and gave a soft knock.
“Hey, girl,” she called from behind her clipboard. “You look
sensational. For tonight, I need you to really lean in to that sex appeal.
We’re planning on a lot of great close-up shots of you and Viktor, so it’d
be good if you could pretend to actually like him.”
“I do actually like him.”
She looked up from her papers. “You do? Hmm . . . well, then let’s
make sure it’s oozing out of you, okay? I want to see sensuality, passion,
fire . . . like a deep carnal desire for one another . . .”
Wes cleared his throat. “I can’t imagine it’ll be too hard for you. For
one, Viktor is gorgeous and is just dripping in sex appeal. And two . . .
well”—he leaned in a little closer, as if everyone in the room wasn’t
already aware of the sex tape of me and my ex that was leaked out to the
press a little over a year ago—“we all know how you can really make a
splash when it comes to showcasing carnal desire on camera.”
He’d meant it as a playful jab, but the remark packed a Mike
Tyson–size wallop that practically knocked the wind out of me. It was
one thing for the world to have been privy to what I believed was
supposed to be a private and intimate moment between me and my exboyfriend Rhys, but quite another for that experience to now read as an
actual credential on my résumé.
I wasn’t sure if it was Wes mentioning that godforsaken tape, the
mounting pressure of filming the show’s biggest episode yet, or the
thirty or so instructions that’d just been hurled at me in the last five
minutes, but my head was racing just as fast as my heart was pounding.
How the hell was I supposed to be bouncy and effervescent
aaaannnnddd sultry and seductive at the same time?
