Please stop saying I didn’t participate because of the money – that’s not true. Maybe I didn’t want to wear spandex when I was over 50, or I couldn’t go to New Zealand for a month. This is nobody’s business. JDF and I decided not to do this for our own reasons. The footage was filmed before his death. But I’m excited to see my guys!

Excited to see my friends @employee & @employee Rock though!! # power Rangers

For the record, I never said “no”… I didn’t say yes to what was shown. But other fun stuff is in store! I look forward to watching my friends kick ass! 😘 #Boringers 30
