Lori Loughlin’s daughter Olivia Jade Giannulli didn’t think her time on “Dancing With the Stars” would be this hard.
- “I would not consider myself a dancer by any means, but it’s so much more work than you really anticipate with the dedication and the patience you have to have with yourself,” Giannulli told People magazine.
- “The pros make it look so effortless and easy, but once you get in there and they’re really teaching you the steps, it’s way harder than I ever thought. But what I will say is the pros do such a good job,” she added.
Giannulli told People that she is “just starting to see a few muscles show up in my back that definitely weren’t there before.”
