Lori Harvey can officially add ‘actress’ to her resume and during a recent sit down with Hoda and Jenna of the Today Show she shared that she actually learned a lot about acting while on set.
The hosts asked her about her acting debut and she said:
“I’m still nervous I was literally telling [Chloe] backstage like, ‘I’m so nervous.’ I haven’t seen anything so I’m going to be watching it with everybody, but the nerves have not gone away yet.”
Another interesting fun fact she told the hosts was that her father had no idea she was acting.
“My dad actually didn’t find out until I showed up at the house in Atlanta to film. He was like, ‘What are you doing home?’ And I was like, ‘Oh, I’m acting.’ [He said] ‘Acting in what?’ And I was like ‘A real TV show.’ So he was so shocked.”
