“I totally thought I bombed the audition. There were three scenes, I only prepared two,” Diana explained.

She added that in addition to missing the scene, her manager had lied about her height!

“My manager was like, ‘Hey, we’re telling the director that you’re 5’8″ because Octavia [Spencer] is 5’3′ and I was like, I can be 5’8″ if I believe it! I’m 5’10″ and a half but I can be 5’8″ for Octavia!” Diana joked.
