"And I'm thinking, 'Yeah sure, that's not going to happen. I'm not going to tell him when my massage is,'" she said.
However, when her appointment was done, Bacon was there waiting for her.
"Years later, he told me he had actually called downstairs and I was getting massaged, which is kind of creepy, but whatever," she joked.
