Und I am Tinka.
Und this is the worst party ever! You just got here.
Yes, I know.
For practicing when we leave.
I can't believe we're gonna be on True Teen Life.
It's my favorite show.
It really speaks to our generation.
Mmm-hmm.
Looks like these pineapple chunks aren't the only things full of baloney.
Rosero! You made it.
I can't believe my favorite choreographer is here.
That would be really flattering, CeCe, except we both know I'm the only choreographer you know.
Um Everyone, can Rocky and I please have your attention? Yes.
We would like to welcome you all to our Down in front! It's starting! Whoa! Whoa.
We spent a week backstage with the cast of Shake It Up, Chicago! to find out what it's like to be a professional teen dancer.
How do they deal with the pressure? Stay tuned to find out! How do we do it? I'm on the show and I don't even know.
I don't know how you do it either, but I wish you'd stop.
These questions and more will be answered this week on True Teen Life, I'm on Shake It Up, Chicago! Meet CeCe Jones, one of the teen dancers.
Hi.
Oh, look! It's you! You look so cute! Don't I look cute? Well, let me show you around backstage To me it's more than a studio.
It's my second home.
Feel free to make it your first home.
I know it sounds corny, but it's true.
Around here, we really are one big happy family.
Like, oh, here in this room are a bunch of people with headphones on.
What up, guys? Yo.
Hey.
Yeah, you.
Yeah.
Didn't that last guy's hair look great? I mean, you would never know it was a toupee.
Well, now everyone knows! Thanks a lot, big mouth! I I It wasit was a compliment! I meant it as a compliment! I said it looked I said it looked great! Like any workplace, there's always that special someone who's the real heart and soul of the group.
Shh! Everybody, quiet, I think this part is about me.
That someone who keeps spirits high and everyone feeling good.
Mmm-hmm.
I love her smile.
She makes the long hours fun.
She knows what to say when I'm having a frustrating day.
And it happens a lot around here.
Who is this angel of the show? This bright spot in a harsh world? Her name is This is totally flattering.
Tinka Hessenheffer.
This is totally insane.
Nobody even likes Tinka! Rocky, I would tell you what you could do with your negativity, but I'm not just the heart and soul of the show, I'm a lady.
Hmm, should I have the peanut butter celery sticks or some of Rocky's sour grapes? Now, on every show there's a hip, happening master of ceremonies.
Here on Shake It Up, Chicago! It's host Gary Wilde.
Ooh, that's me! Got to be front and center for all the great things they're going to say about me.
Oh, oh! Hey, ouch! Yep.
Even though he's clearly on the wrong side of thirty, Gary Wilde is desperate to hold onto his youth and prattles on like one of the teens who tune in to the show.
What up Chi-town? Hold on to your pa-zizzle, 'cause we're about to see some fa-shizzle! Some fly aerial dancing is about to drop, yo! A'ight? I don't walk around desperately trying to hold onto my youth.
I don't talk like a teenager.
That's whack, yo! You agree with them? No, no, not at all.
You don't talk like a teenager, you talk like a 1990s time capsule.
You know what? You guys are haters.
That's right, haters.
H, the number eight, E, R, S.
Gary out! I act like a teenager? Right! Woo! But who cares about the host when you've got dancing like this! Oh But not all the excitement's on the stage, a lot of it happens behind-the-scenes.
I totally think we have a shot at the Spotlight Dance this week.
It's obviously not going to be Kent.
He can't dance.
Yes, that's right, there's one on every stage.
Meet dancer Rocky Blue, "The Diva.
" And no way is it going to be Sheila.
How could you say that? No! No, Kent, I didn't I would never Come on, Sheila.
We don't have to stay for these insults! No, no, no, no, no.
See, they edited it to make me look bad! Uh, I said you couldn't dance because you twisted your ankle.
Oh, sure, you did.
No, no, no, it's true! And I said that you weren't gonna get the Spotlight Dance because you were going off to your sister's wedding in Cincinnati.
If it's any consolation, the crown looked super cute on you.
Quiet everybody, the show is back on.
Yeah, quiet, nobody wants to miss a second of this.
You heard the Diva.
Shh! Thank goodness we are here in America, land of opportunity, where dreams really do come true.
In the old country, there were very few occasions to dance.
In fact, the only time we danced was when the dictator made us stand in a prickly pear patch.
"Dance!" He'd scream, "Dance!" But it wasn't a happy kind of dancing, know what I mean? I had no idea you two had it so hard.
CeCe, why are you so mean to them? Why? Ugh, I barely got through Tinka's solo dance.
I think I'm going to throw up.
Apparently, the Diva just sunk her claws into the heart and soul of the show.
How dare you? What was I saying earlier? Oh, that's right.
This is the worst party ever! I didn't mean it like that! Oh.
Well, I did say that I was going to throw up, but it was because I ate a spoiled frittata from catering! Okay! Okay, new party game! Every time the Diva says, "I didn't say that!" Everyone takes a chip and a big glob of the bean dip and eats it! Okay, Ty, that is ridiculous.
Nobody wants to play that.
This from the Diva who said Tinka makes her want to throw up.
I didn't say that! Everybody dip! Ugh! I can't believe this.
I am not a diva! Rocky, relax, it's television.
They have to entertain the audience.
Everyone knows the real truth.
And now let's watch as cupid's arrow strikes on Shake It Up, Chicago! Oh, a love story.
This should be good.
Ooh! I'm in love Ooh Ooh Well, considering my statuesque build and ripply abs, I can't say I'm completely shocked.
After all, who can resist this? Me! I can resist this! When I said I was in love, I meant with your jacket! You know that, you were there! Ugh! This is crazy! They're just trying to make something out of nothing.
CeCe, relax, it's just television.
They have to entertain the audience.
Everyone knows the real truth.
Can it, Diva.
You know what? Forget this party.
I'm going home! That's right, I am home! Oh, did you hear? We have Eclectic Gentlemen as the guest crew this week.
Oh, come on! How obnoxious.
You wish you could dance as good as they do.
No! No, no, no, no, no.
I I yawned because I was staying up late studying! No.
Look.
I I love those guys! In fact, I'm friends with the lead dancer.
Well, I was friends with the lead dancer.
And the judges say Yes, it counts! Scoop! You know, that's getting really annoying, Ty.
Ooh, someone's bringing her work home with her.
Meow! I didn't mean it like that! You heard the lady.
Scoop! I don't love you! Hey! Give it up for Eclectic Gentlemen! Okay, I'm bored.
Yeah, I'm out of here, too.
I've had enough.
Wh What did we do to insult you? Oh, it's not you, it's the food.
I feel like those baloney pineapple things are having a cage fight with the bean dip.
And the big loser is going to be me.
Hey! Whoa! And hey, hey, and push and push, turn Whoo! Hey, hey.
At the end of every show there's a big finale number.
How hard is it to learn a new dance every week? Um Hard? It's not hard at all.
What she means is, we pick up on new dances pretty fast.
Shoom! Clack-clack.
And dum-dum-dum-dum, shoom-shoom, clack-clack.
All right, kids, that's what we're going for.
Yeah? Now, follow me.
Five, six, seven, eight! We go woo! Cat-cat.
And dum-dum, dat-dat, shoom-shoom, clack-clack.
Woo! Dat-dat, and kum-kum Rocky.
-CeCe.
-Yeah? Focus, or we're going to be here forever.
It's not that hard.
I taught it to my dog last night, kids! Here we go! Woo! Kat-kat, and dum-dum-dum-dum, shoom-shoom, clack-clack.
Dum, dat-dat, and dum-dum-dum-dum, shoom-shoom, clack-clack.
Good? All right.
Let's do it again.
Everybody, take it from the top.
Let's go.
Whoo! What's it like working with your choreographer Rosero? Okay, first of all, I know a lot of people around here think of him as a choreographer, but I don't.
Oh, really? Well, next time I'm putting together a big finale, I certainly won't be thinking of you as a dancer! Uh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
They, they edited that all wrong.
What I said was, "I don't think of you as a choreographer, "I think of you as a mentor and a friend!" And so, during a week backstage Shake It Up, Chicago! we've met a golden girl who brings sunshine to an otherwise stormy stage, the obsessive love of a "Showmance," and a diva who doesn't care who she steps on to get to the top.
Stay tuned for scenes from next week's True Teen Life, I'm A Teen Dentist: Open Up and Say, "Ah.
" Ah.
This party was a disaster.
Who cares about the party? This show was a disaster.
You know what? First thing tomorrow, I'm calling those stupid producers and asking No, no, no, I am demanding, that they issue an on-air apology immediately, or they'll have to deal with Rocky Blue! Wow, maybe I am a diva.
CeCe, I see you've managed to get rid of everybody, so you can be with Gunther.
Gunther, do you honestly believe that I'm in love with you? The camera doesn't lie, baby.
Neither do I, Gunther, so you can either leave here on your own, or in an ambulance.
Either way works for me.
Oh, and Cece, I love it when you play hard to get.
Go! So I watched the show again, and I guess I understand why they made it look like I was in love with Gunther.
I mean, it was good TV.
And every show does need a diva, I just don't understand why they would pick me.
Don't worry, it'll all blow over in a few days.
Yeah, you bet it will, because we're sending out cute little apology cards.
You know what I still don't get? Geometry? English? Science! Yeah But no, I'm talking about Tinka.
Like, why would they pick her to be the heart and soul of the show? That is how we wound up in this country.
That's it, good job.
You're natural, Tinka.
Oh, thank you.
I know.
Hey, by the way, my niece lives in Chicago.
Is there any way you can get her an audition for the show? You milk my goat and I will shear your sheep.
