“They by no means informed me what this documentary was actually about,” Summers mentioned within the preview for the present that can be streamed Friday on the Elvis Duran YouTube channel, “And they also confirmed me a video of one thing that I could not imagine was on Nickelodeon, and I mentioned, ‘Effectively, let’s cease the tape proper right here. What are we doing?'”
