Interview with Jones:

What did you have to bribe your girlfriend with to get her to put on a unitard and do gymnastics?

(laughs) I don’t know. She was such a good sport. Not only was she a good sport to let us put her in those clothes and let us tease her hair up, but she also was a good sport, because after half of the first day, she was so sore and tired. We made her rehearse and learn gymnastics with a gymnast, learn dance and a style of ribbonwork. ..
