“Because in the moment, I’m reading, I’m working.
I don’t see the episodes before they air.
So I’m watching them for the first time like you are.
So I’m bawling my eyes out right beside you.”
Theresa Caputo on doing more celebrity readings
The pandemic actually presented a brand-new opportunity for Caputo.
This included celebrities likeRosario Dawson,Meghan Trainor, Carmen Electra, and Backstreet Boys' Howie Dorough.
Brushing elbows with A-listers isn’t new for the star.
It’s not hard for them to open up.
And I think that’s what people don’t understand as well."
One of the main things that surprised Caputo about working through the pandemic was how easy it actually was.
“It was a little different because you don’t have that physical connection.
And that’s the thing that I love the most about this season.”
The virus has seemingly thwarted every typical avenue for closure.
Goodbyes are said over FaceTime.
Families stand apart at socially distanced funeral services.
As Caputo describes toThe List,the reading involved a family who lost a loved one to COVID-19.
“They were unable to, of course, be with them,” she says.
“They didn’t know what was happening.
And to get that validation for that woman was really touching.
For her to say, ‘Oh my God, I wondered if they did get the message.
That’s what the nurses and the doctors were telling me, but I didn’t know.
