Lauren Gottlieb Showers Love On Her Father As She Recalls His Undying Support & Belief In Her
Recalling her initial days of hard work, Lauren Gottlieb told Bollywood Bubble, “My dad has always been my biggest supporter. The time, effort, and resources he invested in helping me pursue dance were incredible, he probably could have funded a few university degrees instead, but he always believed in my dreams. One of my favorite memories was during the So You Think You Can Dance tour when I got nearly 40,000 people to sing ‘Happy Birthday’ to him. It was such a special moment, and one I’ll never forget”
Reflecting on the special bond she shares with her father, Lauren said, “When I was on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, being so far from home made me miss my dad deeply, so I dedicated a dance performance to him. But one of my favorite memories was when I was living in Los Angeles and decided to drive six hours just to surprise him. I was on the phone with him while he was at work, and when I finally told him to turn around, I was right there. The look on his face was priceless, it’s a moment I’ll always cherish.”
