Candace Cameron Bure Reveals Why She Can't Watch 'The Unauthorized Full House Story'

Candace Cameron Bure is keeping super busy these days shooting her starring role in Netflix’s upcoming spinoff “Fuller House,” guest co-hosting “The View” as well as promoting her latest book “Dancing Through Life,” in which she chronicles her time as a contestant on ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars.”

The charming actress sat down at TheWrap Studios with executive editor Joseph Kapsch on Friday to discuss the book and during the interview also talked about progress on her new sitcom “Fuller House,” which is centered on Bure’s popular character DJ Tanner of ABC’s long-running series from the 80s and 90s.

When asked about Lifetime’s “The Unauthorized Full House Story” debuting Saturday night, the actress said she hasn’t seen clips of the project but her best friend texted about the TV movie earlier that morning.

“My best friend texted me this morning and said, ‘I think your ‘mom’ is in the movie’ and she showed me a little picture,” Bure told TheWrap.
