During the podcast, Abby Lee Miller admitted to STILL being into high school football players at this stage in her life. The two women discussed Tom Cruise‘s famous white bundt cake from Doan’s Bakery.

Miller soon trailed off from the bundt cake topic and asked her host, Sofia Franklyn, if she had ever seen Cruise in the 1983 film All the Right Moves, which she noted featured the Oscar nominee as “a high school football player.”

“Oh, that’s my downfall. I like the high school football players,” Miller continued. “I still like them.” Sofia seemingly attempted to re-route the conversation by noting that she finds adult football coaches attractive.
