Original ‘Footloose‘ star Kevin Bacon got a blast from his past recently – the studio uncovered his audition tape! He shared:
“It was like a weird time-travel, out-of-body type thing. It’s like if you went and saw the interview you did for your first job. Wow. I literally turned the thing off, went into the bathroom, looked myself in the mirror and went, ‘Jesus, is that even the same guy?’
He says he was impressed with himself: “Honestly, I was. The energy, the hunger, the determination … it was cockiness really. I oozed it.”
Kevin says he does have a regret about the movie – that he didn’t do all of the dancing in the ‘warehouse scene’:
“Are you kidding? I was furious. It’s like a starting pitcher getting taken out of a game – no one wants to be told they can’t get the guy out. I had a stunt double, a dance double and two gymnastics doubles. There were five of us in the f—ing outfit, and I felt horrible.”
Are you planning to see the new version of ‘Footloose‘ this weekend?

Soo real that he can be honest about it, *coughs* Natalie…..Portman.
He’s an actor, not a ballet dancer and a gymnast.
