| First stage kiss: | Actually, it was on screen, and it was in "Jumanji." I was 13, never been kissed, and I was so nervous that my first kiss was going to be on camera... Very depressing. But, I had a huge crush on this boy named Hunter, and he pulled thru kissing me just days before I filmed the scene! Woo hoo! That could have been years of therapy!!! We went out for eight months... He's now married with a child. First Stage Kiss: Andy Ray in high school play Pajama Game. On Broadway: Matt Morrison in Hairspray — not an unpleasant experience. |

| Worst missed cue/onstage mishap: | Ruthless: I was in my dressing room eating during second act.. totally zoned out.. Donna English kept yelling, "Tina! Darling come out and see your grandmother... she's had a rough day... (murdering and all)" Hairspray: Forgot where I was, who I was and what I was doing during "Nicest Kids in Town" — it was one of those out of body "Who am I?" experiences... Peter Matthew Smith was like "Hey Bundy, you okay?" It was so surreal... I just stopped dancing. Probably for about five seconds, but it felt like an eternity. |

| Worst job you ever had: | I did a movie in Costa Rica called "Surf School"... the location was great, and so was the cast but not a great working experience. |
