Yahoo Finance Olivia Attwood on filming "intimidating" scene in Getting Filthy Rich
Olivia Attwood has discussed filming one scene in Getting Filthy Rich season 2, where she performs a strip routine at a club for real customers.
In the new season of the docuseries, the former Love Islander embeds herself in the American sex industry, going above and beyond to get a taste of what performers contend with by getting on the stage.
"I had a very hard time with that one, going back and forth," she told The Sun.
"Are people just gonna judge me, are they gonna think this or think that? But how can I say that I'm immersed in this world if I don't put my money where my mouth is and I don't actually strip?

"I basically dance in a club full of customers. I don't get fully nude, obviously, but as good as. It was way scarier than I thought it was going to be.
"I underestimated how intimidating that would be and I have such a huge newfound respect for these girls."
Olivia's husband Bradley Dack initially had reservations about the star doing the routine, but after a while he did come around to the idea.
"A couple of days before when I got really nervous, I was like, 'I don't know if I could actually do this'," Olivia recalled.

"He actually then turned, and was like, 'You can do this. It's gonna be great, it's going to give you such insight, you're gonna feel like you learnt so much from doing it. Remember the reason why you're doing it'."
"He said, 'It's not really about you. If you can't dance and people don't think you're sexy, it doesn't matter because it's not your day job. You're doing it to find out what it feels like'."
