Just like a Pro
- 1) Although Chrissie is a singer and actress, a professional dancer is not something she would include on her resume. But you would never know after seeing the moves she does on Teen Beach 2.
A Little Crush:
Both Jordan Fisher and Chrissie Fit love for acting were sparked by an innocent crush.
- 2) In the 5th grade, Jordan had a crush on a girl that was joining the drama club, and he could not resist signing up too.
- 3) When Chrissie’s was in the 5th grade, she had a crush on a 6th grader. So she asked the 6th-grade teacher if she could be in their class play and was told no. However, this did not stop her. She found out the script did not have a villain and went back to pitch the idea of including one in the play. The teacher was so impressed by her efforts, they said yes.
Neither ended up having a long-term relationship with their crushes; however, they did foster a long-term love for the art of acting.

Step It Up:
