Reinhart confirmed she auditioned by sending in a videotape from home.
"I self-taped from home and was actually told no, they weren't interested, they didn't want me. So I was like, okay, moved on with my life," she said. "And then I moved to L.A. and went in in person and then booked it. So I originally was told no off of my self-tape."
