"We'd all known each other for a couple months, maybe? A couple weeks?" Burton said on her Drama Queens podcast of her early scene with Chad Michael Murray. "I was so whacked out about it. They wanted me kissing all the way down his body, down to his belt. I don't know that you see it, but I had to undo his belt." After doing a couple of takes, she spoke to her manager, who was on-set that day. "I was, like, crying in my trailer. I'm like, 'I don't want to do this. It feels dirty. It feels like they're trying to sex everything up,'" she said. Burton added: "I felt like a prostitute. It was the first moment that I was, like, 'I'm kissing someone for money. I'm getting paid to do this.' There's a morality thing where you're like, 'Am I a sex worker in a way? Is this OnlyFans in 2003?'"
