OHMYGOSSIP — Stacey Dooley has recalled being surrounded by “various different penises” while interviewing NFL players.
The award-winning documentary maker – who is in a relationship with former ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ professional Kevin Clifton – was filming in New Orleans when she stumbled into the dressing room to interview the American football hunks – who were stark naked.
Appearing on Paul Sinha’s ‘TV Showdown’ on ITV, she spilled: “At the end of the game if you’re a reporter you’re allowed in the dressing room.
“I walk in and they’re all completely naked.
“I’m trying to interview them about being a quarterback, I have no idea what the rules are anyway, and I’ve just got various different penises in my face.”
She quipped: “I had a lovely afternoon.”
By contrast, for her new BBC show, the 35-year-old star got to live with nuns.
The ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ winner’s new programme ‘Stacey Dooley – Inside The Convent’ sees the star experience a slower-paced life with the Sisters.
Stacey lives in a “constant sate of 21st-century busyness”, but she recently took a break from her hectic lifestyle to get to know the Sisters at The Order of the Holy Paraclete Anglican Religious Community at St Hilda’s Priory in Whitby.
The TV star immersed herself in “their way of life” to see which aspects she might be able to adopt, ranging from singing and sharing meals.
She said: “I had wanted to film in a convent for a while, so was delighted when the Sisters at St Hilda’s invited us into their home, allowing us to truly witness and experience, first hand, their way of life.
“I really do believe it can be hugely beneficial, spending time with those you wouldn’t usually. It forces you to see things from an entirely different perspective.”
