So, this actually happened!! A few months ago, I had the opportunity of a lifetime to film an episode of #wheeloffortune! It was such an incredible experience, and I had a blast playing America’s game and meeting the crew (especially @officialvannawhite). The show airs in just one week ???? Tune in to @wbrz next Monday (yes, Christmas Eve!) @ 6:30pm to watch me spin the wheel!! #wheeloffortune #gameshow @wheeloffortune #homefortheholidays
