00:04makes me want to do like the sexy salsa dance yes but julianne hub said that was your way of
00:09campaigning to get on the show is there any truth to that or were you just having fun and they called
00:13they saw you no it's that so the true story is i was just dancing i'm new to tick tock i've only
00:19been on it for a handful of months and so i was just trying to like understand it and i'm like
00:24okay tick tock dances i'm trying i've of course make alec do it with me as most wives do and um
00:30and then like a few days before they call me and they're like do you want to do this and first i was
00:35like that's crazy because i have to move seven kids here i never thought about doing this show in my
00:40life and i got everybody on a plane and we came out here and this is what we're doing but it was like
00:46the day of we're finding a place to live that like two days ago we're figuring out school like all of
00:51the things as other moms know there's a lot of moving parts with kids so that's that is the that
00:57is the true story but yes i i have heard about the campaigning thing i mean i wish i had been
01:01campaigning because this is so fun i wish i did it a long time ago right and you moved all the kids to
01:06la when you met alex for the first time i love that he's in rehearsals on the footage i saw him
01:10backstage what was your initial reaction glenn i was starstruck i was like oh my god the dream come true
01:16i did some acting lessons it was amazing such a cool guy so supportive he came to our rehearsals
01:22a couple of times we danced together he gave us some notes it was like hey he always knows
01:30can we get him involved in a dance some way i feel like he needs to just be somehow in there
01:34using the acting chops and want to hear do you want to hear the secret thank you you got to vote for us
01:39because it might just happen if we just stay in i love that well glenn for you i feel like this is
01:46a comeback season last year got a little dicey there was some drama but you have a great partner
01:51you guys are so beloved online do you feel like it's some redemption time i feel like i'm back to
01:56my competition time you know uh we speak the same language tiki tiki tatata you saw that in the package
02:02laria understands me perfectly and it's like you know it's first like flying a rocket ship to the moon
02:08with her you know it's smooth and fast and the connection is there it's just perfect dream come
02:13true what was alex reaction to getting all seven kids on the plane and taking them to la what did
02:18he say to that well he wasn't on that plane lucky him actually filming a movie yes now he's actually
02:23gonna be working a lot over the next couple of months so we're gonna be very bicoastal but um no
02:29i mean he's been wanting me to do this forever it's almost like he would have been the one campaigning
02:34for me and i was like that's crazy i can't do that i'm a mom of seven i broke my hip i can't do
02:39that but um so i don't know he and everybody who called in to dancing with the stars to recommend me
02:45and everybody here in the dancing with the stars family that's that's who got me here and i'm very
02:49grateful because it's a dream come true well i love the baldwins on tlc i feel like the show really
02:54showed a whole different side of your family what is something you really want america to learn about
02:58you throughout this journey i think one of the most important things i've learned from being around a lot
03:04of people over the past 15 years who are spoken about in in the press and by other people is
03:09learn who they are from them that is one of the most important things i don't read stuff about other
03:14people i want to hear what they have to say and that's i hope that everybody does that with us
