The actress explained that she woke up with body pains, something she doesn’t usually feel, even when she gets sick.

“I felt like I had been hit by a car and a little goblin had come loose in my throat and was scratching the walls of my esophagus,” he continued. “They were giving me medicine between shots because we were waiting for the positive result.”

Once Ortega’s test came back positive, MGMthe production company behind the series, told the publication that “strict protocols were followed,” adding, “Once the positive test was confirmed, the production removed Jenna from the set”.

When Ortega recovered, he asked if he could redo the scene, but there wasn’t enough time on the production schedule. “I think I probably could have done a little better”he added.

The actress said that she got the song for the dance scene, “Goo Goo Muck” of The Cramps, a week before filming it and he came up with the choreography. “I’m not a dancer,” she said, “and I’m sure that’s obvious.”
