Julia Stiles is clarifying a common misconception regarding her dancing in the 2001 movie Save the Last Dance ahead of her upcoming season of Dancing with the Stars.

She participated in a TikTok trend alongside her pro dance partner Ezra Sosa and revealed that in the movie, she was using a body double.

The video features the 45-year-old actress saying she did not go to Julliard, as that was something misattributed to her despite it being her character in Save the Last Dance who went to the acclaimed school.

Ezra and Julia also confirmed that most of her complex dancing sequences in the movie were done by a “body double.” She actually hasn’t danced since doing the film but the pair say they are “ready to SLAY ON DWTS.”

Julia has talked about dancing before and how she prepared for Save the Last Dance. During a stop at Today in 2021, she said she had to work extremely hard to get into shape and “catch up to the level that Sara — or, at least, look like I could catch up to — I could be at the level that Sara was supposed to be at.”
