“GLOW” star Alison Brie was recently interviewed by Pop Culture to talk about her role on the TV program. Brie discussed her “life-changing” role as Ruth Wilder on “GLOW,” and is asked about the most dangerous move she has ever performed inside of the ring.
Check out the highlights here:
Her role as Ruth Wilder being “life-changing”:
I love the show so much. I think that season three is a real masterpiece. It’s been life changing, the way that we work with our bodies as athletes on the show, really learning to use my body in a different way, did hone in my food issues, my body issues. GLOW is also a dream job, because our bosses are two women, Liz Flahive and Carly Mensch, and their goal with this show is all about showing different kinds of bodies.
It’s all about body positivity and representation. To be honest, I trained really hard [and] I continue to train really hard for every season because I don’t want to get injured. I want that strength to be able to do the moves on the show.”
The most dangerous move she has performed inside the ring:
I mean, they’re all a little dangerous. A lot of the moves we do, even the Sunset Flip, which is one of my favorite moves [are dangerous]. Betty and I have done it before … our heads were half an inch from bashing into one another, and we finished it, and our trainers looked at us like, ‘Are you guys okay?’
I have felt Betty’s baby hairs on her forehead against my forehead and been like, ‘That’s too close,’ as you’re flying through the air. So, honestly, all of the moves are a little bit dangerous and we do a lot of work to make sure that we execute them safely.
