Willow Shields Blogs About Dancing With The Stars Week 5 And What A Challenge It’s Been

And how about a new Access Hollywood blog from Willow Shields before show time? She writes of what a challenge this week has been, her bonds with Noah Galloway and Patti Labelle, and more…

This week was a huge challenge! At this point in the competition I have literally started to lose track of what day of the week it is.

I think it’s Monday morning. Yes, definitely Monday because I just got an email from the producer saying that tonight is the live show!

Yeah, when I first started the competition I thought it was pretty silly that the producer of the show would email me on the morning of the show reminding me that I have to perform tonight. But now…. going into the fifth dance I know exactly why they send this email, because the producer is trying to avoid calling me when I’m hanging out at some random place in Hollywood yelling “Where are you? You’re on in 5 minutes!” Oh and here’s my reoccurring nightmare that I’m having, it goes something like this… I’m dancing with Maddie Ziegler on “Dance Moms” and Abby Lee Miller is yelling at me “Are you crying? No tears. Save those tears for your pillow…and by the way your dreaming, and dreaming in the wrong show…you have 5 minutes until you go live on Dancing with the Stars!”

Who needs an iPhone alarm when you can just wake up in a cold sweat every morning to this.

Yeah, sometimes I’m pretty close to tears. I’m tired, my brain feels like it may explode or implode, not really sure. But…. thanks to some of the dancers I’m around I manage to keep it together. Two of the dancers I’m talking about are Patti LaBelle and Noah Galloway.
