[At the audition,] we all danced for Britney, and then she said, "OK," and got up and left. As dancers, you're used to working with stars. But we all were like, That is BRITNEY SPEARS! She is an icon. There were seven girls in the room and 10 men. Nobody knew what was happening. They started measuring us. Finally the choreographers came up and officially offered us the contract. I'd never cried at an audition before then.
This is definitely the most exciting part of my career and something I still cannot believe I get to do. Working on a residency show is the most incredible schedule. The next two years, we will work a month on and a month off. All of the dancers live in L.A. and just rent when we have to be in Vegas. When we are on, we have three shows a week. Honestly, that's all I could do because the show is so demanding.
Britney is so sweet. She's very quiet and reserved, and she's also very goofy. I don't feel like she's my boss even though I know she is. She's had a lot of input in the revamp of the show. We have an all-girls number now that is so sexy because Britney wanted it. I think it's hard for artists to get close with their dancers sometimes — or with anyone — because it's such a solitary life. You're working so hard and you don't know who you can trust. But I really feel like Britney trusts us.
