Talk about work experience Law, love and betrayalFewa said she was initially nervous about working with Modiadie.
“During my test shoot with Pearl, I was so nervous that she had to put her hand on my chest. I remember her asking me, 'Why is your heart beating? Are you nervous?' And I said, 'Yes,' and she said, 'Thank goodness, me too.' From there, we were able to put each other at ease.
