A Controlled Environment
Byrdsong also revealed how the scene went down, saying it was “totally fake.” “A piece was built by the intimacy coach to go between his face & my butt,” he explained. He continued, describing them as “coached and safe.”
The actual filming was incredibly professional. Totally fake. A piece was built by the intimacy coach to go between his face & my butt. Super chill & professional. Been a fan of Eric since I was 9. Acting since 3. Truly a milestone for me. We are coached and safe.

Milestone Moment
Even though the scene was fake, Byrdsong still said it was a milestone moment. “When I was on set I got into position they asked if I was comfortable. I said ‘dreams really do come true.’ The set burst into laughter. That’s the hashtag lol like I filmed on an incredible show with an incredible director and an actor I admire and I got paid. That’s the dream.”
