The hit ABC Family series Bunheads returned to the small screen on January 7, starring two-time Tony-winning Broadway favorite Sutton Foster as a Las Vegas showgirl-turned-ballet teacher with an attitude. In honor of the new episode’s premiere, Foster answered fan questions on Twitter during the show…with mostly hilarious results.
