Leana’s ultra ticklish audition

We forgot about this footage. That was a mistake. This is the first time Leana was ever tickled — and watching her encounter it for the first time, unguarded and completely unprepared, is extraordinary. She’s interviewed sitting up. She gets tickled sitting up. Then she goes on the bed. And then she goes somewhere entirely different in her head, because she’s ticklish in a way that seems almost structural — as if laughter is the only thing her body knows how to do.
Loud, exuberant, a little unhinged. Everything you’d want from an origin story.
