I have to lose weight and stretch a bit so that my groin doesn’t get caught while I’m on. It’s very painful and painful to do. The worst thing for me is seeing me on the sets after the action , but after that I seem to be stuck back it’s hard to walk and then suddenly you see people and you send them flying kisses.”
