  • Radio City Rockette Mindy Moeller shares her entire daily routine as she prepares for the Christmas Spectacular-rolling out her muscles in the morning, tripling her hydration during the day, and taking care of her skin through it all. Mindy takes us backstage to show us how the Rockette's get in formation and prepare for their shows. She also reveals how the Rockette's do their own makeup, hairstyles and manage to pull off a 72 second wardrobe change between numbers.

      reel you see, if you don’t care for something then it won’t matter to you how things will turn out. for instance if you went to audition to be the lead in a movie/show but it wasn’t something you really wanted to do in life then you wouldn’t really be nervous because if you failed to obtain the part then it wouldn’t bother you. You wouldn’t really care, you have other ambitions in life- but if it’s your whole life and it’s your career then you’d want to be the best you can and do everything you can to take hold of that position so you’d get super nervous because you wouldn’t want to fail and the thought of making a mistake and failing will bring you disappointment.
