While the classic final dance number of ABC’s Dirty Dancing remake might look impressively graceful, Abigail Breslin says she was “terrified!”
Luckily, the actress had co-star Colt Prattes to help calm her nerves as he lifted her up into the air along to “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life” from the 1987 movie.
“There was this weight of everyone loving it so much,” Abigail told TV Insider. “Just being graceful is a big enough feat for me, but being graceful while in the air? It was terrifying.”
“Yet we pulled it off – partially due to Colt‘s talent, but also due to the fact that he knew I would murder him if he dropped me,” she joked.
Dirty Dancing centers on Frances “Baby” Houseman (Abigail), who, while vacationing with her family in the Catskills Mountains, falls in love with the camp’s dance instructor Johnny Castle (Colt).

Abigail Breslin reveals that she suffers from panic attacks.
In fact, the 20-year-old actress had one while performing during opening night of her new play All the Fine Boys on Wednesday (March 1) in New York City.
Luckily, her co-stars Isabelle Fuhrman, Alex Wolff, and more helped her get through it.
“When you’re on stage doing a play and you have an actual panic attack mid show cuz anxiety doesn’t warn you,” Abby tweeted. “BUT THEN your cast mates and crew give you tea and breathing exercises and the panic attack slowly packs it’s bags and leave. BOOM”
Also in attendance that night were Christian Siriano, Ethan Hawke, Peter Dinklage,and Sara Bareilles.

With the 2017 Academy Awards just around the corner, we want to take a minute to praise young actors who’ve kicked some serious butt in Hollywood by scoring an Oscar nomination.
This year, 20-year-old Hailee Steinfeld was our best bet for an actor under 20 to represent, but sadly she narrowly missed getting a nomination for her coming-of-age-flick The Edge of Seventeen. P.S. That would have been her second nomination!
