"Sure, we perform story ballets like Sleeping Beauty, Swan Lake, and the Nutcracker on stage, but we don't use our words."Taking up the role of Gracie, the "mean girl" in the new movie The Red Shoes: Next Step, was a whole new experience for Kern. Kern said the filmmakers had auditioned for every other role but hadn't found anyone for the role of Gracie, and thought she was a good fit.She was thrilled to take on the role, but says she is slightly concerned people will think she really is the mean girl she plays in the movie.Kern says she constantly felt the need to apologise after every "mean" scene with Juliet Doherty, who plays the lead character of Sam.
"She copes well under pressure, she is good at remembering lines and she backs herself when it really matters," he says. "It's the most prestigious ballet company in the world and to say I started my career there is incredible," Kern says.Kern says her German and English heritage meant she had the right look for the Paris Opera Ballet.
